It's for science

[birdsofshore]

I'm spending a happy hour going through the fab fics and graphics at the love fest , and trying to write a Luna thing for it, but I just wanted to tell you all that I spent two and a half hours this afternoon studying the anatomy of Mr. Thomas Hiddleston at the Donmar Theatre, and I am fully prepared to answer any and all questions you may have on the subject of his body acting. I was in the front row of the circle and there was naked flesh and a shower scene and all sorts.



I know, I am very soft-hearted. It was a tough job, but I did it all for you.

So Jealous!

[knowmefirst.livejournal.com]

Lol! All I read was men dip in chocolate :P

[birdsofshore]

I know. I'm even jealous of myself. I want to see it AGAINNNNNNNNNN.

[birdsofshore]

OK, it wasn't in fact chocolate. It was blood. But chocolate is so much nicer than blood. Especially when it's all over Tom Hiddleston's naked torso and being showered off in front of your eyes.

I just groaned and collapsed in a heap on my bed. I can't handle my jealousy feels.

[birdsofshore]

If it helps, I can describe his arse in vivid detail for as long as you like. Or indeed any part of him.

I'm sorry about the groaning and collapsing. I understand. Originally who_la_hoop and omi_ohmy went without me and I couldn't go. I did actually shed tears (before slapping myself a bit).

Please give as much detail about his body and that shower scene as you care to relate. And was there smiling at all? God I love that man's smile.

[omi-ohmy.livejournal.com]

We did talk about you the whole time we were there. You were with us in every way apart from the actual ogling-Hiddles way. So glad you got to go for real!

[omi-ohmy.livejournal.com]

I truly admire your commitment to science. You didn't faint, then?

:D

[birdsofshore]

Well IF I MUST, THEN. :DDD

There was not much smiling. The play is so awfully grim D: I had to hide on who_la's shoulder, a bit. Also, I may have groped her inappropriately for a while when he first came on, just to relieve my feelings :DD

His body is really quite nnnnnngh. Whoever decided that what a Shakespearean production REALLY needed was skinny jeans, boots and random bits of leather with buckles, attached to odd parts of the body, well. I would like to shake them by the hand.

His arse is not so jutty as it looks in a tight suit, though. It's more neat. His legs are divine. That doesn't fully convey how good they are, though. I'll try again: HIS LEGS ARE DIVINE. Grown women were gazing upon them and weeping. With joy. And gnashing their teeth. The whole play was just drowned out with weeping and gnashing, and ovaries sproinging **







** this may be a lie

[capitu]

Aw, Birds, you're always taking one for the team. XD

[birdsofshore]

The whole time? This is good. It would have been better if I was ACTUALLY there, though.

I heard the cast singing happy birthday to him just before it began! I was outside the loos, not at all lurking in a creepy way by the backstage area, and suddenly a big round of "Happy Birthday dear Tooo-ooooom" broke out!

[playing-perfect.livejournal.com]

Your reply has both made me laugh and be AWFULLY AWFULLY jealous. Thank you for that. I think :-D

And Who_la has had the experience twice? Oh sighs.

[birdsofshore]

I didn't faint! I hid a tiny bit. I made a special study of his crotch IN THE INTERESTS OF SCIENCE. I blame that tumblr all about the contents of his trousers. I had to check to see if they were right about the Hiddlessnake.

THEY WERE.

[birdsofshore]

I KNOW. MY MIDDLE NAME IS ALTRUISM.

If someone will get me more tickets, I agree to go and see it again ONE LAST TIME. But that's it, OK????

[birdsofshore]

I know. Twice. But she only got to go with ME once. The other time she had to bear it without me :D

He has particularly lovely calves, covered in lovely fuzzy pale-ish hair. His feet were a bit funny, though.

[playing-perfect.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it was much better with you!. Watching Hiddles without being groped would leave something missing !:-D

Lovely calves ftw. And I like funny feet, so they win too.

[birdsofshore]

OH! AND Mark Gatiss walked right past us carrying a box (I suspect containing birthday cake) when we were at the ticket office. I subtly whacked who_la on the back to alert her to this occurrence (what I really wanted to do was shout "LOOOK! IT'S MYCROFT!! LOOOOOOOOOK!" :D

[birdsofshore]

Did I mention his jeans were so tight I can tell you not only which side he dresses on, but that he is not circumsised? ***






*** possibly another lie, but a good one

[playing-perfect.livejournal.com]

LOL. It's alright, I'm already at maximum jealousy!

[subtlefire.livejournal.com]

I'm going to need you to download your entire memory of this experience directly into my brain.

[kedavranox.livejournal.com]

I'm going to have to download this. Though, I know it will not compare to the live experience. :(

[ashindk.livejournal.com]

Hngggg! I can't even! So jealous! Please go on with the arse describing. In detail. Great detail. Also, the shower. Again. In great detail. Please!

this show will be broadcast to cinemas for one or two days - check NT listings

I actually don't know the actor, but do know the play, so I found out that this production is going to get broadcast live one night and then have "encore" showings to various theatres internationally on a few dates, so people should check here to see if there will be one near you: http://ntlive.nationaltheatre.org.uk/productions/ntlout5-coriolanus

Re: this show will be broadcast to cinemas for one or two days - check NT listings

[khalulu]

not the same as being there, I realize.
