Hey, so, this conversation is great. I’ve got a crazy idea! What do you think if I reposted this onto Non-Productive.com?
Maybe people will love the Frank and Vivienne Show (Vivienne and Frank? ViviFra?) and we’ll be America’s Sweethearts the way we deserve!
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Haha! That sounds like a good idea. I feel bad for the people who can’t see our conversations and appreciate how hilarious we are. Poor bastards.
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I already submitted it every damn where, including io9!
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
I also put it on Tumblr. We should continue to discuss/gush in the future and perhaps share more of our pheels.

I’d like to mention that I just spelt that with a “z” and autocorrect changed it to “pheels” for me. Good call, autocorrect, for I am not a 13 year old girl.

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
You are not indeed.

That could have sounded less creepy, but I’m going with it.

Vivienne Cleary

Sleepy Hollow news!!! http://m.deadline.com/2013/10/foxs-sleepy-hollow-renewed-for-second-season/
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
THIS IS ALL BECAUSE OF US.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Obviously
They should reward us by giving me a small, guest star role
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
The world needs to know. Sharing!
Absolutely. It’s certainly possible.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
We rock
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
You can be a gorgeous yet deadly villain from the past. I can be some dude. IT WRITES ITSELF.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
I can totally rock a bustle. It’s proven fact.

A gorgeous yet deadly villain that tries to absorb Ichabod’s life force, which for some reason can only be transferred through mouth-to-mouth

You can be my eeeeeevil henchman who carries people’s essences around with us in jars

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I certainly hope that I don’t drop some of the jars while being distracted by a seemingly out-of-breath and distracted Abbie, only to have them crack on the floor and spill forth their vengeful essences!
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Noooo! Don’t drop the essences!!!! It’s like the end of The Little Mermaid where all the MerWeeds get their buff-ness back and they kick evil’ sass in retaliation!
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
That would be an awesome line to deliver in the actual show. Imagine?? And ancient evil referencing The Little Mermaid? It would be a total Whedon moment, but it would work.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Hahaha! More likely, it would be you, who has been forced to live through the centuries preparing for your dark mistress to reawaken

Keeping up with current events and culture. All the easier to seduce unassuming young idiots and take their souls

Sweet Eru. What is wrong with me?

That came far too easily

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I can feel your character’s eye roll as I scream out my Disney Princess references.

You are one sick bastard. That’s why I like you.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Heh heh heh
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
You ready for some freaky Hessian shit tonight?

I apologize. That sounds so entirely wrong

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
No no. Go on. *dims the lights creepily*
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
LOL

Tonight’s ep looks interesting, but the summary for next week and the bts pics look reeeeally interesting

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I am excited to see the mythos develop!

I haven’t heard anything about next week’s episode. What’s it about?

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
They’re doing some weird “4400” thing with an old timey kid. Kids= automatic creepy

I wonder how Ichabod would react if Abbie took him to colonial Williamsburg.

Oh shit.

I need to bribe someone to write this Fic. Like now.

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Holy shit the universe would implode.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Would he, like, start clinging to butter churns and sobbing?
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
YES. ALL OF THIS. He’d get a hyper-extreme case of Stockholm syndrome and start following around the jobbing actor that plays Washington. “I keep telling you my name is Gary and I’m from the Actor’s Studio!”

Or he’d end up running the place.

OR maybe that’s where his wife Katrina has been trapped!! Maybe everyone in Williamsburg is stuck in time as well!

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Love it

Well that would certainly explain Katrina’s access to modern cosmetics. That was a fierce shimmery smokey-eye she was sporting in the pilot.

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
She’s at a WiFi Hotspot Skyping with Ichabod. He just doesn’t have the verbiage to explain what he’s seeing.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
WHAT IF IT’S ALL THE MATRIX!

OR A SEALED AND CONTROLLED OBSTACLE COURSE LIKE RESIDENT EVIL AND KATRINA IS THE RED QUEEN OH MY GOD!

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
MATRIX 2, ELECTRIC BOOGALOO! That had vampires and stuff in it, right?

You’ve gone too deep, Vivienne! Concentrate on the sounds of my voice!

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
*breathes into paper bag*

I’m ok, I’m ok, it’s fine. I have some rooibos. I’m fine

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Haha, I just posted a status that basically had the same geek-out!

That’s cute and more than a little sad.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Hahaha! I LOVE Gingerhaze! Her Nimona comic is amazing
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Absolutely!
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
And I love her Hulkeye sketches.
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
When I saw that graphic come up a week ago, I made a mental note: For Vivienne.

Broship of the Ring? Classic.

Also, enjoy this.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
SHUT UP! That’s the pic I just sent you!!!!

This is getting weird. Do you have a camera hidden in my apartment, Frank?

No bueno

Also, randomly… @SleepyHollowFox is following me on twitter now. So make of that what you will

Are you watching this live? I’m dying

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I am watching live as well. So much. We will compose our thoughts as soon as we settle down.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
So… I might have pitched the Colonial Williamsburg/ butterchurn idea to the @sleepywriters on twitter. MIGHT have. … And now they’re following me too.

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
It’s going to be a sensation!

WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT.

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
“Imagine the deliquesce we can perpetrate if we really put our minds to it.”

I made note of that line during the show, forgot about it, then just found it again. My lord.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Sweet Eru , the look in his face when he said that! If there is no forthcoming Fic from that line/look then I have lost faith in this fandom
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
It was the line that awakened sexuality in 43% of the viewing audience. I’m convinced of it.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
And I know it’s very history-nerd of me… But can we please discuss of the perfection of Ichabod shooting that pistol SIDEWAYS WITH ONE ARM BRACED AT THE SMALL OF HIS BACK?

It’s standard dueling stance! Pistols used to be very heavy, yo

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
YES!

It was perfect. Just perfect. All the little historical nods, even something as simple as pronouncing Lieutenant correctly, make the show. Somehow, it even makes the crazy stuff seem more plausible.

Of course there was the “Northstar” joke, which floored me.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Oh, Yolanda…
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
And have you ever had a music instructor as creepy as Creepy Hessian Dude? How could that kid even manage to play at all?? “Always the Left Hand will protect you”
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
AND that sequence totally supports my desire for a platonic Ichabod/Abbie friendship for the time being. Dude is still completely in love with his wife ( who is very fond of cleavage baring witch gowns)

Ew! Creepy Hessian dude is creepy

What I want to know is 1) Why isn’t Luke dead yet… Like, just on principle? And 2) Jenny is totally stirring up the shit and while I can understand Ichabod admiring her he has to see right through what she’s trying to do, right?

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I’m still hoping for a Broship between Ichabod and Abbie, despite the sexfulness of the “delinquency” line. Jenny is the jerk little sis in the back seat teasing her sister and her boyfriend, but she’s totally into the Ick.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
She totally is.
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I hope Ichabod doesn’t see through anything. He didn’t realize his own wife was a sexy witch, and sexy witches are the easiest to detect! Ichabod has to have a fatal flaw, and I think it’s that he’s clueless around confident commanding women. He’s just not used to it.

That’s more than 80% wishful thinking and conjecture. I have no clue.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
If that’s true then he is soooooo completely fucked

Also, did you see where Orlando Jones was asking for Crane/Irving slash?

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Orlando Jones is your not to secret crush.

I DID NOT SEE. He’s gone too not far enough.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
He calls the ship CRAVING. And I’m dead

Though upon watching the episode again, the voice on the phone to creepy Hessian dude…. Kinda sounds like Irving.

dun Dun DUN!

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I’m so torn about him. Also, Abbie and Jenny’s mother, who is a witch by gum!
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Also, have a think in this- what if Irving is named, not only as a nod to Washington Irving, but because he is the eventual author/recorder of the happenings of Crane & Mills… the tales of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman

OH! The scene where Abbie goes to confront that foster mother! That woman was so hateful and had to throw out that last barb as they were leaving. The look on Crane’s face right before she steps in front of Abbie like a HUMAN SHEILD? Amazing little acting choices in this show

Right before *he steps in front of Abbie

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
See, there are so many instances of gallantry and parental/brotherly protection. It’s great. Everyone in that town is a jerk.

So, I started thinking that it would be very interesting if the show actually gives Ichabod the chance to go back in time – to see if he’d take it. Perhaps he can save the world after everything goes to Hell in Season 6.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Perhaps it will be a “Whisperings of Sauron” kind of deal. Like Moloch (seriously, this guy again? Jenny Calendar killed him in 1997) offers him a choice to go back and do things over again in exchange of not destroying an incredibly magical object. Ichabod will think that he can go back and ensure the world doesn’t come to this point, but Moloch is all “Heh heh heh… Puny mortal. I have 29 different strategies for this end game, bitch!”

Or, to quote Al Pachino in Devil’s Advocate : “Vanity. Definitely my favorite sin.”

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Moloch boredom AND a Devil’s Advocate reference? You sir, are the perfect woman.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Haha!

That movie is the shit

I will always watch Charlize Theron losing her mind

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Word. GOD IS AN ABSENTEE LANDLORD! Man, powerful angry awesome stuff.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
One year for Halloween in college I tried going as one of the writhey statues in the big scene and nobody got it
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
You needed to have a bunch of sexy naked people screaming and clawing next to you.

That sentence would not fly under normal circumstances.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Um… I did. I went to theatre school. And it was a party.

I thought the naked clawing was implied

Anyway… This week’s SH was a good, functional set-up episode but the next one is when things really start to get moving. So excited.

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Yeah, I’m glad (and surprised) that we got some details on our foe, but by next week we should see how the basic stride of the series goes down. I, for one, hope to see Ichabod routinely upstaged by a smart-aleck kid until he’d called on the save said kid!
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Agreed. I think reluctantly parental Abbie & Ichabod has the potential for much hilarity.

On the other hand, Ichabod will finally have someone who totally understands what he’s saying!

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
A confused and out of place Abbie would be a delight
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
I just had a most evil thought. What if the kid got into the red bull
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Ah, man – what if Child Protective Services comes in and they hold both the kid AND Ichabod for observation?

ICHABOD WATCHING YO GABBA GABBA!

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
BLUES CLUES & SPONGE BOB!

“No, child. Mister Square Pants most assuredly does NOT live in a pineapple under the sea.”

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
“Abbie, perhaps you’d have less trouble recalling the specifics of this case if you kept a, how do people of your time call it? ‘A handy-dandy notebook.'”
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Think she’s given him sushi yet?
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Not yet. We need help.

But it’s a lot of fun thinking about the stuff she might need to show him! Also, the post-its. Adorable.

Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Completely adorable!

Not sure how I feel about that hint at a makeover next ep

The fact that he’s questioning doesn’t sit right with me. Not sure why.

I know that he would have to eventually update, but… I don’t know! I’m just not ready!

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
I was thinking about that during the last show. I think he can keep the overcoat. It makes sense. Vintage, and also he’s accustomed the moving in it.
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Ugh. I just had another one of those horrifying thoughts that make me hate my brain

Y’know those terrible law firm commercials and medicine ads on during day time tv?

Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Yep
Vivienne Cleary
Vivienne Cleary
Low-T and Vaginal Mesh. K’know he’ll see one eventually. I hate my brain. So much.
Frank ร– Hablawi
Frank ร– Hablawi
Wow. I hate it too.

MUCH LATER

It happened. Someone wrote the Butter Churn Fic, Frank. I love this fandom so fucking hard.
