ash darkly

its been several nights since i posted a shot of my darling ian holm as science officer ash. so here goes one more. i love him in these close-ups. apparently robots from weyland-yutani corporation can sweat, because ash is visibly sweating it out, waiting for kane, lambert, and dallas to come back with the 'life form.' is he programmed to sweat so like, humans won't get suspicious and blow his cover? who knows. i think he sweats because he's hot... despite the '...deep cold, well below the line.' so hot.

eyes closed

here's a still frame from 'alien' of ian holm as science officer ash with his eyes closed. i'm posting it for no other reason than this : he's so hot. so sexy. i love the emerald jumpsuit on him, and i was admittedly looking for an excuse to post another image of him. especially in that costume. so ian, if you're out there somewhere, then please, realize how wild i am about you. and drop me a line sometime. i think you're the best there is.

playing it cool

yes, the devious and gorgeous science officer ash listens, his face inscrutible, as kane relates his '...horrible dream about...smothering.' kane drinks a few cups of water, ash drinks endless cups of milk. i don't have too much poetic to say about this shot, other than this entire movie has me by the 'cult' throat, and won't let go. hey, you wanna hear something really 'fan' ridiculous? my friend belinda brought me over an assortment of scented candles to choose from as a housewarming gifts, and i secretly chose the one i imagined ash's cologne smells like. yeah, i'm totally insane. insane-in-love with ian holm, that is.

can ash say something?

DALLAS:

"...Parker, will you just listen to the man? (2-3-4) ASH: "...on penalty of total forfeiture of shares..." (whispering) "...no money." yes, the sexy and devious Ash puts forth a cool, logical lever: money... convincing the materialistic Parker and the working-class Brett to 'go in' and investigate the mysterious 'acoustical beacon.' needless to say, it is far from a routine investigative excursion. yes, as many of you know, the eggs they find, although artfully hidden, are a far cry from the gaily painted shells of 'earth' easter. (mm, what the hell am i talking about? hey, give me a break, i'm in the middle of 'big move,' and spent most of the day going through dusty boxes of my own mess.) but hey, Ash is still sexy, so...

ash in stasis

i don't have a lot of energy tonight... i'm going to be moving soon, so that's kind of been on my mind.

still, here's a little ash... sleeping, like i should be. actually, i'm not sure he sleeps, being a robot with sly dealings on his mind. still, he's got a nice chest. i think this is the 'nakedest' i've ever seen him. he's probably dreaming about milkshakes and wrestling with ripley. this may be the only thing i post tonight, like i said, i have a lot on my mind. peace.

fight

this may well be my 'nightly ash.' i saw this picture long before i saw the movie. after seeing it, i almost wish their violent crescendo would've lasted about 30 seconds longer. sigourney and ian holm seem to be pretty well-matched, physically...and it would've been really hot to see them get down to the biting and kicking and pinning. i realize that probably reveals something wicked about me, but what else is new?

science!

he blinded me with science. all those tubes and wires and careful notes... and antiquated notions...

ahhh, you know the rest.

ink

mmm, i wish i had more energy tonight for the 'text' or 'readable content' part of this tonight. i sort of feel like saying something along the lines of, 'here's some more notebook art, deal with it,' only not quite so hostile, you know? i'll bet you the hundred bucks i don't have that lucien and i have the coolest 'notebook art' alive! we should, we've been doing it f'nyears. (translation: we've been practicing the art of notebook decoration since some time around 1985.)

sometimes you show your interest in the opposite sex by throwing rocks.
