Kindred: The Embraced, my old friend!

[scribblinlenore]

I was working from home today. Or, really, "working." I've been frantically busy for the last couple of weeks, and it finally broke today. So I made cookies, as you do. Chocolate chip. Num num. Although not as good as the ones linaerys makes. Hers are the best!

So I sat down with a cookie to watch a little TV, and Kindred: The Embraced was on Sci Fi. I used to love that show, so I gave it a go, even though a while back there had been a marathon on TV, and I'd recorded a whole bunch of eps, and tried watching one, and was very yeah-whatever about it. But today, I saw the episode where Julian and Caitlin go away together, and they have sex, and another vampire tries to assassinate Julian, and Caitlin finds out he's a vampire, and she feeds him her blood to save his life, and then he wipes her memory, because if he doesn't, he'll have to kill her or turn her into a vampire, and he'll never let either of those things happen to her. And then I remembered why I liked this show so much. Mark Frankel, what a sexy, sexy man. I'm sad that he died. Julian and Caitlin (Lily from Gossip Girl) really do have amazing chemistry together.

I might need the DVDs. Also, does anyone have fan fiction recs? I assume there's fan fiction? I didn't see anything on yuletide, though.

(I'm using my Lenore icon, since she's the only vampire I have.)

Oh my god, i kinda even forgot that show ever existed. All i really remember is that there were a lot of people in evening dresses running across lawns. If you find DVDs, I'm inviting myself over for a viewing.

Mark Frankel, what a sexy, sexy man.

He was the reason I watched that show. :) Did you ever see him in Young Catherine with Julia Ormond? It's pretty good from what I remember.

Oooh! I loved that show. Well, not the Frank bits, but the Julian bits were lovely. If you can get your hands on the DVD set, I recommend it. (If nothing else, you can pause it when clothes start disappearing) It is OOP in most countries now, I think Australia still sells them on ebay, and the ones sold elsewhere sometimes go for quite a bit.

I have fic! It's in my LJ entries, or memories, or whatever. It's looong, and involves Julian and another man. (And not Frank Kohanik! Just...eeew.)

I was a Cash/Sasha OTP girl. But Mark Frankel was so pretty and perfect in his role.

Yet another Fox show that I loved that got cancelled too soon (of course, then MF died, so wasn't much that could be done).

Oh, Julian Luna. *dreamy sigh* I had such a crush, I might have written Mary Sue fanfic if I'd known about fandom. (Though I'm pretty sure I wrote quite a bit of it in my head. *cough*) Just, he was so lovely, and I have all these kinks that are relevant in the context, and...yeah.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Kindred: The Embraced fic being asked for on Yuletide, so it's a shame that no one's written any.

(Btw, speaking of vampires, did you ever write more of that SGA AU where John is a vampire hunter? I've been keeping such bad track of lj lately.)

I loved that show. I had all the eps on tape, but my sister recorded over them. That was a sad day. I was very sad when Mark Frankel died. Read fic for it, but that was years ago.
You really brought back some memories- that show really rocked my world back in the day.
