This is week 7 of the Armitage Weekly Round-Up.
To see what the written word was up to this week, check out Arkenstone’s fanfiction round-up.
As always, Tumblr has been buzzing with excitement and Guylty has compiled a list of the cream-of-the-crop posts.
This is a special edition of the RA Weekly Round-Up as we celebrate Valentine’s day and nothing brings to mind a little bit of good ol’ fashioned luvvvv like Richard Armitage!
This week sees the first RAworld Secret Valentine, as lovingly created by Guylty (thanks Miss!).
I don’t know about you, but I really enjoyed going through all the cards, vids and letters and it warmed the cockles of my frozen heart to see evidence of friendship, affection and a heavy sprinkling of RA admiration.
But then we’ve been spReAding the love for a while now!
Valentine’s / Love posts
Here’s a Richard Armitage fan message video from The Anglophile:
Guylty celebrates Valentine’s with pizzazz
I agree with Obscura, nothing says love like a bit of blood sacrifice!
With two extremely hunky Valentine’s from fantasy land no bother there are no RL ones to just pale in comparison
The only thing better than an RA bum post is if it’s placed in a Valentine context. The perfect storm
If you know what I do for a living, you’ll have little doubt I regard grammar as a bit of a turn on 😉
Shut Up and Kiss Me! is an entirely appropriate thing to tell Richard on Valentine’s Day!
Perfect song for Valentine’s Day AND a Friday! Good one Kelbel!
Celebrate Valentine’s like a Fangirl! (advice for next year!)
RA/Hobbit/OT
Uttering: “Richard, I’m behind you” may be a dream come true or cause to call the authorities 😉 Anyway, congrats Magwi!
No catchphrase can beat the original: “Hey, Richard Armitage, I think your G-string is a bit tight…” (even stranger still, my spell-check insists it should be “you’re g-string”…).
Is Thornton a man of low self-esteem? I wish I could kiss it and make it all better…
If Harry is your pen/email pal, you’re in luck! Plenty of news from Dibley
And he’ll cook the books for you too!
I always thought Richard was a Beanie Baby 😉
More on Richard’s sartorial decisions! (if good-looking people don’t know how to dress well, I say they should just go around in their undies/nude!).
*grabby hands* No, I don’t need that Moleskin Hobbit notebook, shut up, I want it, my precious…!
All together now:
Hey Ricky, you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind!
Hey Ricky! *claps hands” Hey Ricky!
Talking about music, here are the notes of Middle Earth
On misogyny and being a geek
I hope you have a great week and I’ll be back tomorrow to show you what I got from my Tumblr Valentine from Switzerland (yes, there’s chocolate involved!).
Hobbit Moleskine!! *drools*
I know, right? I was going to link to a post from this week, but this one presented the Moleskin better 😉 If only I could come up with a reason to buy it…
I was looking for a travel diary, just a nice notebook, nothing fancy. Then I stumbled upon this, the red one with lines, and I just knew that this was made for me. Traveling through New Zealand with a Middle-Earth themed diary, can it get any better? 🙂
Oooo that’s a great idea! I need to get myself some tickets to NZ… well… a girl can dream, right?
Yes she can!!
You should! It all starts with a dream, right?
“You’re G-string”? Sounds like an existential crisis :). Thanks for the linkage, and for all kinds of things I missed in my Valentine induced haze!
Yup, I’m not a fan of g-strings, bum flossing and all but reconcider… 😉
I can’t even….
I’ll be adding “Hey Ricky” and Ricky Deeming to my list for future songs to do now 😉
I know, as I wrote I did the obligatory head shake and hand clap (which made the proces of typing that little bit harder) 😉
Thanks for all the great links and the link love. I’m thinking of a new superhero — Grammar Girl!
Love the name, although, for the record, I teach it, I don’t have to use it correctly 😉
yeah, the idea has stalled insofar as it’s unclear what she would do, exactly. Outside of work, I’m not interested in supporting the grammar police except where clarity is at stake.
OK, let’s first design the costume, hair and snazzy mask and THEN we’ll think what her actual super powers are 😉
Great list! And thanks for the mention! Cheers!
Dziekuję Agzym…wrócę tu jeszcze 🙂 (ostatnio nie mam czasu na nic…..oprócz jedzenia ..niestety 😉 )
