Tristan seemed pretty complacent, but now he's attempting to defend himself (cat burglar reflexes!). Maybe Fudo should have figured out when to shut up. Tristan doesn't take lightly any threats against his lady friends.

I saw Stardust yesterday. Fantastic movie for about a billion reasons, but I'm not going to go into that. Instead, I have a rant about names. Why is it that in every movie or show, Victoria's/Vickie's are the very worst of characters? They are shallow, self-centered stuffed shirts with no redeeming qualities. Never the adventurers, never the heroines, not even the fun sidekicks or the clever villains. Nope. Just the life/love ruiners, the destroyers of fun and joy. Ugh. (Corpse Bride might be an exception, but she still causes the typical “Victoria heartache.”) Sigh. (End rant. Watch Stardust.)

Jonko: Yeah, Fudo and his knife get into people's personal space. The man knows how to intimidate.

Locoma: Alex did recover from that little episode in the thumbnail. Although things have gotten a little more sinister/intense lately.

Peipei: Now Tristan is fighting back. He had to wait for Fudo to shut up for a minute. ;-)

n_y_japlander: I'm not sure the “Jerry trick” will work with that big trench coat, but Tristan doesn't intend to give up or to beg either.

Masq: He's not buying the whole “no one loves you” spiel. :D

maritalbliss: Ah, if only all the conflicts in the world could be solved by nude wrestling – or bake-offs. Someone get that man a cutting board!

Kristen: lol. He's a sore loser.
