Drabble Post - Blaze

Drabble Post: Just a little SWAT Kat drabble I've been toying with for a couple weeks. It's been through three different versions, and I'm still not sure it feels right.


Title: Blaze
Date: March 17, 2007
Genre: General
Rating: E

Then, let’s go out in a blaze of glory.

T-Bone didn’t want to die. He didn’t want to be killed. He didn’t want to grow old.

T-Bone didn’t want Razor to die. He didn’t want to be alone.

T-Bone didn’t want to stop being a SWAT Kat. But, he didn’t want the fame.

T-Bone didn’t want gravity to ever catch him. He didn’t want to believe it could.

T-Bone wanted to fly. He wanted to do something good with his life.

So, he would burn bright as long as possible.

Because, most of all, T-Bone didn’t want to fade away.

Fangirling: So, [livejournal.com profile] seekersks and I saw the new TMNT movie Thursday night. I was pleasantly surprised. In fact, I really enjoyed it. As Seeker had told me, it does seem to be set in the same timeline/universe as the most recent animated series, a few years after the series' end. And, despite having only seen a couple episodes of the new show, I didn't have any trouble following it.
- I still miss the old suits, but the CGI was really good. Especially on the Turtles. Its one failing was Splinter, whose look/design I didn't care for at all. But, at least his voice was perfect.
- Leonardo was awesome.
- I do wish Donatello and Michaelangelo had had larger roles.
- However, I didn't mind Leonardo and Raphael stealing the show too much as I thought the conflict between them was handled really well. (This could be because I'm older than I was when I saw the first movies and I've now accepted the fact that only the original cartoon Raphael is not a grumpy brooder.)
- Overall, it was great to see the Turtles on screen again, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

And, I guess no more movies for me for a while as the computer needs a new hard drive before the old one completely fails, and the car needs a new speedometer (I think the old one is just guessing now; I know I am). Bleh.
