Was that my dignity I just saw flying out the window?

All right, y'all.  You knew it was coming.

As I wrote to [info]thisissirius :

You know what I think? I think we should have a Colin Morgan festival. On my journal. Where everybody comes and tells me everything they ever learned about Colin Morgan. Because that's what I do when I have a crush on someone- I become a total freak and want to know everything about them right down to the last freckle.


So gather round me, pretties, and tell me every little thing.  Illustrate it, as my economics professor used to say, verbally and diagramatically. 

In other words, EARSPAM PLEASE.

I'll start shall I?

Happy!





HEAVY ON THE PICSPAM, OKAY

SO THIS ONE TIME THERE WAS A GUY:



He was in some show I liked called MERLIN, whatever that was. So I thought, HEY! Let's watch and episode. AND THERE HE WAS:



I thought, yeah, he's cute. BUt you know what? I've seen cuter. THEN. There was this other dude called Bradley and the two of them were AWESOME but it made me notice JUST HOW AWESOME COLIN WAS.



AND THE



MORE I



WATCHED. THE MORE



I FELL



IN LOVE.



THEN HE GOT NAKED.



AND MET A DRAGON



And I knew I couldn't let this one go. So I heard this one time that he was appearing at a convention, right? I couldn't let him escape so I thought, what the heck and went along. I was starting to get ridiculously in love with this boy. LIKE MY LOVE KNOWS NO BOUNDS. SO.












He was amazing. He had a gorgeous accent and his eyes were so piercing and strong and he was witty (in that dark way of his ;)) and he seemed generally in awe of the people that had come to see him. I DON'T EVEN KNOW, OKAY. Anyway. He took the time to talk to everyone when he was signing autographs and he didn't stop SMILING once. It was amazing and I think he's totally down to earth and appreciative and still finds it amazing that so many people adore him.



ALSO HE TOUCHED ME.


He won an award. Which he thoroughly deserved.


He's sexy when he drinks. HIS WRISTS, OMG.




Edited at 2009-02-18 10:08 pm (UTC)

HE ALSO DID THEATER: (during which, he was AMAZING.)




He's done TV-STUFF :D:










And he adores his co-stars;












Even some ridiculous vids:





THAT IS MY LOVE FOR COLIN IN PICTORIAL REVIEW. YAY. I LOVE COLIN BECAUSE HE IS AMAZING.

That scene where you say 'then he got naked'; I think that how vulnerable he looks in that scene makes it most sexy.

...

Ok, I think I'm going to stop commenting in this post now, because I feel increasingly weird...

Sooo, All About My Mother was several different kinds of incredibly awesome, but I PAID NO ATTENTION TO COLIN. Except in a kind of 'This is your line" sort of way. ^_^

BUT I remmeber thinking that he was skinny and gorgeous, and there are pictures of him from the programme on my journal, should you be interested. If you are, I can link you!

I was too far away to notice The Ears. I'm so sorry. I fail as a stalker...

Oh no, don't you worry. Failing as a stalker is something we should all aspire to.

Besides, ears are FAR from the only thing to like about Colin. There's, you know, skin and hands and feet and dimples and things too. And acting, yes, that acting thing I've heard rumors about.

PS- I would luuurrrve a link.

*picspams also*

Colin is too young for me but that does not stop me oggling. It's funny but when I first started watching I was all about Arthur/Bradley but somewhere along the way, I don't even know when it happened, I realised I was totally in love with Colin


See how cute he looks in his little hoodie


And his lips! Egads!


There's something really sweet and vulnerable about him


But he's bloody hot too!


Even though he's skinny and pale he looks good with his shirt off


He looks good being all scruffy too


He likes to flirt with Bradley...or is that just in my head?


D'aww!


He makes porn faces


Quite often


And Merlin also flirts with Athur...or is that just in my head too?

HOLY SHIT. I LOVE YOU. OH, COLIN.

It's a paynis, but ye kin ate it.

SO. My report following [info]thisissirius is going to look quite lame but whatever, teacher's pet!

I originally watched the show because I was lured in by some song-videos that somebody did. Then somebody linked me to the Catherine Tate episode he was in, and I was hooked.




At first I thought, sweet jesus, why did they make Merlin a little boy? Then I realized he was a bit older than I thought he was, and THEN all of a sudden it was BAM COLIN MORGAN IS SEXY.

And I felt wrong.

But not that wrong.

PAYNIS. JFC I CANNOT HANDLE HIS ACCENT.

Psssh. Teachers Pet indeed ;)

HOLY - WHY ARE YOU BRINING ALL THE COLIN TO THE YARD? I'm going to die from exposure to COlin or something.

COLIN'S EARS ARE AWESOME EVEN
WHEN THEY AREN'T HIS EARS ♥


Merlin Cat

:)

This fact is UNDENIABLE.

Damn right. lol

Okay, so my love of Colin was a slow growing thing (avoids the wart analogy because that's just ICKY) - at first I was blinded by the Royal Prince Prat, Arthur, but as the series went on, Colin started to creep under my skin until they were both under there, wriggling about. Heh - the images.

Sooo, it was about here when I went, OMG - COLIN.



So then I had to go back and see the other eps for the Colin love for myself...

And found these...


Too cute


Seriously THAT FACE. *squishes*




He is just TOO PRECIOUS


And we can't forget the sword rubbing ;o)


Or his neck...




Intense...


Confused...


"Arthur wants me to polish what?!"


No one does thoughtful in quite the same way...


Then there is the TOUCHING between Merlin and his boytoy master Prince...


And the looks...


And the touching...


And the looks...


And the TOUCHING and the LOOKS together...

But really, nothing can prepare you for that final episode, can it. I mean...


FINGERS!


Crushed, crying Colin. *wibble*


And then they hit us with this - hot as freaking anything Colin - and I admit it, I was completely his, in that moment.

GAH.

Is that okay?! :o)

HELL YEAH I LIKE CHEESY POOFS.

Which is Frantic parlance for "Why yes, thank you so much for participating."

For your outstanding contributions in the field of Colin Morgan's Total Loveliness, I award you *rummages around in bag* a stage picture by Keith Pattison!


HEY, GUYS, JUST GONNA STICK MY NOSE IN TO SAY THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO'S POSTED PICTURES OF COLIN.
MY HEART IS BEATING SO FAST AND MY ARMS ARE SO FLAILY THAT MY DAD ACTUALLY ASKED ME WHAT WAS WRONG AND THEN OFFERED ME SOME HORLICKS TO CALM ME DOWN D: ♥

I HAVE SUCH A CRUSH ON HIS LIPS AND FINGERS IT'S INSANE. AND OH MY DAYS, HAS ANYONE MENTIONED THE COLLARBONES YET?
HIS COLLARBONES ARE ONLY SECOND TO HIS CHEEKBONES, I SWEAR.
OH, HELL, I LOVE EVERY BONE IN HIS BODY ♥

IF I HAD ACCESS TO PICTURES OF COLIN, I'D SHARE THEM WITH YOU. BUT I DONT. SO I CAN'T. SO I'M JUST GONNA STEAL THE LOVE HERE. BUT I APPRECIATE IT ALL.
TA, BAI.

IT'S OKAY IF YOU HAVE NO PICTURES, THEY AREN'T REQUIRED FOR FULL PARTICIPATION POINTS, I PROMISE. YOU WILL HAVE A CHANCE FOR EXTRA CREDIT ON THE QUIZ.

ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU MENTIONED THE COLLARBONES, WHICH BY THE WAY I REALLY DO LIKE.


OMG, this is AMAZING. I can't contribute any more pictures, but I'll share what I've learned about Colin Morgan:

- He reads Terry Pratchett.
- He seems to take acting very seriously.
- His birthday is on New Year's Day.
- He's a vegetarian.
- He cleans up *really* well for formal events and actually makes a popped collar work.
- He has a dark sense of humor, according to Bradley James.
- He has absolutely *sinful* lips.

And I would also like to know the location of each and every one of his freckles.

HE READS TERRY PRACHETT, SERIOUSLY? I THOUGHT THAT I COULD NOT LOVE HIM ANY MORE, BUT APPARENTLY I CAN.

I was reading Terry Prachett today! CLEARLY WE ARE MEANT TO BE, OKAY?

And yes yes yes yes about the lips and the freckles, but may I add - THE CHEEKBONES,, ADALKDSFKLHDSA.

TERRY PRACHETT. I MAY NEVER RECOVER.

My point to contribute:

He would love to play Mort.

Please do tell us more of this. *chin on hands*

Dear Lord I have so much work I should be doing tonight. Therefore,







Ughhhhhh WHAT HAS THIS SHOW DONE TO ME. I never save or even look at pictures of celebrities. :|

I love that Bradley is being all HI I AM SRS BZNS PRINCE ARTHUR in this picture, like he's got even the tiniest bit of dignity. Meanwhile ASH just had a really good joint, Katie McGrath and Angel Coulby are like "Hi, I'm really cold, can we go inside now?" and Colin is like "Bradley, I do not like Pudsy enough to put up with your chain mail digging into my ribs." Richard Harris is like PLEASE GET ME A BETTER WIG, PUDSY AND I BEG YOU.

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH. THIS POST. IT'S JUST--AUGH. A GIANT PIT FULL OF COLIN'S AWESOME. A BOTTOMLESS PIT. BECAUSE THERE ARE NO BOUNDS TO COLIN'S AWESOME.

UM.

ANYWAY, MY ENTIRE FAMILY IS FOR SOME REASON IN THE LIVING ROOM WATCHING ME LOOK AT THESE PICTURES AND I HAVE NEARLY BITTEN THROUGH MY LIP TRYING NOT TO EMBARRASS MYSELF MORE THAN I ALREADY HAVE.

LIPS, CHEEKBONES, NOSE, HANDS. SMILE. WHAT CAN I SAY THAT YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW. OH COLIN.

I think the lesson our class has learned today is that Colin Morgan is pretty much a bottomless well of pure awesome.

Here, have a gold star some ears.


ahahah I just looked through a bunch of pictures and played "spot the popped color". COLIN WHY ARE YOU BEHAVING LIKE A PREP?! He's such a geek. I LOVE GEEKS.

All of these photos and this entire post is just...beautiful and filled with awesome. THIS IS ME GIGGLING.

BUT



this makes me happy. IF NOT FOR THE ACCENTS.

I SAW THAT AND IT WAS WONDERFUL.

Did it seem to you like Katie ramped up her accent a little bit? Or maybe it was just softened during Merlin?



I have another one that I JUST FOUND and I figure if it goes in just another comment people won't be able to see it...BECAUSE IT'S A SWEET ONE. Where has this interview been hiding?!

WHY DO THE FRENCH DUB EVERYTHING? Je ne le comprend pas!

Ack! Dubbing bad! hehe ^^; I hadn't seen that one yet, so thanks for sharing~!

I AM NEW TO ALL OF THIS BUT AM REALLY REALLY FREAKING STUCK ON THE FACIAL HAIR, AS DISCUSSED.

And the ears! And the grin! Especially the grin! Also, holy shit, his accent. DYING. DEAD.

YES TO ALL OF THESE THINGS, I AGREE.

Here, have a GIGANTIC picture where Colin has clearly raided the Libertines' wardrobe (and cut his hair, which...smelling salts and fainting chair, por favor, I feel a swoon coming).





I've never felt the burning drive to stalk (in a loving and friendly manner!) an actor before I stumbled upon Colin Morgan, and now everyday something new feeds my addiction. When I read about his love for Terry Pratchett and Samuel Beckett I knew there was no shaking this one.

Haven't seen it mentioned yet but he's finished filming his first movie The Sea Change. He plays Calum, and if anyone could pull off this difficult character it would be him. Pictures of Colin during filming:

Photobucket

Yeah, I'm generally like "Hahahaha, oh actors." When I was much younger, like middle-school-awkward time period, I know I had a crush on an actor or two, but even then I thought this is probably really uncool. I don't think I'd want to meet any particular actor or actress now...

And then along came Colin Morgan. So, yeah.

These are lovely pictures, thank you so much for adding them to the bunch. I can't wait to see this movie, if we'll even get it over here. And on a shallower note (if you can get much shallower than I am, which is doubtful), I really like his hair that way.

I have to work, like, eleventeen jillion hours this week, but I am SO SAVING THIS for later. <3 <3 <3

THERE WAS DIGNITY AT ONE POINT, I KNOW THERE WAS.

You have to recognize something to know when it's lost, right? So that means I once had dignity, before it saw the state of my mind and went Okay, no.

I-
I AM SO GLAD ALL OF YOU HAVE GIVEN UP DIGNITY, or else this lovely post wouldn't exist.
I LOVE ALL OF THIS SO HARD. ♥ ♥ ♥
THANK YOU {AND GOD AND CM'S PARENTS} FOR COLIN MORGAN. :'D
...Oh, damn. There goes my own dignity. ;-;

I'm glad that we can all collectively give up on pretending to have dignity in any form. I do miss it a little bit, though, as it usually reminded me to put on pants.

okay, so, i read your fic, and giggle at your playlists, and general sayings like "HI COLIN MORGAN I'M SORRY I THINK OF YOU NAKED ALL THE TIME/I DON'T WANT YOUR AUTOGRAPH I JUST WANT TO SEE YOU NAKED" and drool over every comment posted here, and feel kind of bad, thinking--hey, everyone's already posted everything there is and there's nothing new/cool i can bring to the table. but i go to photobucket and scour my harddrive anyway, just in case.

HERE'S WHAT I HAD THAT WASN'T POSTED YET:

JETHRO, i.e. GOTH!COLIN, NAIL-POLISH INCLUDED!:






COLIN IN BED (WITH A BOY! albeit, not a cute one, and definitely not BRADLEY):


GROWN UP AND SCRUMPTIOUSLY SCRUFFY COLIN:


ADORABLE DOTING!MAMA'S BOY COLIN MERLIN (remember that moment from the 1x10 commentary about Colin's mother's cooking? HEE):




worried-stressed-shadow-eyed!ColinMerlin:



MOAR MERLIN!FACES OF FACE-NESS BECAUSE I CANNOT RESIST HIM:


(COY?!)


EARS+CHEEKBONE+NECK+THUMBS


WET!


"YOU ATED MY COOKIEZ???" >.<


SCRUFFY CANDID FROM THAT MOVIE HE'S SHOOTING IN SCOTLAND:


/capslock of crazed fangirling

This reminded me of one of my favorite Colin Morgan video thingies, where he takes us behind the scenes of Doctor Who.




Melissa = not exactly an emo-boy fan, but Colin is of course the most adorable emo-boy that ever put on skinny jeans.

I have no pictures :( BUT I HAVE LOTS OF LOVE I SWEAR! I think my favorite part is that if left to his own devices, the boy grows facial hair. It's not even GOOD facial hair, but I FIND THIS REALLY AND STRANGELY ADORABLE. <3

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE LOVELY PHOTOS. AND THANK YOU [info]franticsga FOR HOSTING!

I might have noticed that I friended you because you are awesome and stalking your fic via coms was beginning to get annoying. HI

also that first "I" should be a "You". Yes, I win at words!.

This is the best collection of comments ever. It's a *public service.* For all of us nursing pleasant, but sneaky and inexplicable celebrity!crushes on Colin Morgan.

*beams* I always knew I'd be narrating a Public Service Announcement someday.

Also, if there were a Colin Morgan Fan Club, it's probably that I would be the President. Or maybe the secretary, as I would not have to make speeches then.

OMG.

*dies of hotness*

And I didn't even think I was that into Colin Morgan...

This is one super-talented, gorgeous boy-man-thing.

He has one of those faces that is timeless. He could be out of the early silent films - there's something Chaplinesque about him. At the same time he is absolutely 21st century. He's both a character actor and leading man material.

My bet is he'll end up a global A-list actor. Do you think they'll let him keep the ears?!

Buahaha... oh my god you're lovely for starting this. I hope you don't mind me friending you. Your stories are marvelous, and the additional quirks such as this post really are worth stalking.

Thank you pickle! Of course I don't mind you friending me. Almost anybody who loves Colin is a friend of mine (I have to say "almost" because while I know I'm totally goofy over Colin Morgan, there are people whose devotion disturbs me).
