and now, live [sort of] from atlanta, our thumbs bring you #2 of the torchwood boys @ dragon*con...

And more text message liveblog from dragon*con, still in 160 character segments or less. (Although I did stick in a few explanatory notes in brackets & italics from Rach's post panel phone call to me). [livejournal.com profile] rm will no doubt post a meatier [pun intended] version of this at some point.



rach: they want us to keep this at the watershed level because kids are here and they are trying to avoid people asking marsters to take off his shirt again.
kali: sad, that. think it'll stop him?
rach: no. starting now.
rach: talking about music stuff. marsters is solo now. gdl is having mic problems and looks tired as hell. album will be out in sept. on about alice in chains.
kali: hungover? poor kid.
rach: talking about kissing barrowman now. marsters explaining how boring doing screen kisses is but that he shaves more now.
kali: and i thought barrowman was his favorite :-(
rach: gdl describes himself as a porn star. says he forgets he's acting in these scenes. fans scream.
kali: i scream. fan service, but they do it so well. there should be awards and these guys should get them.
rach: marsters says gdl hurts him so good
kali: and my eyebrows just shot through my scalp. do they plan this shit or what?
rach: kid who played gray was freaked out by everything.
kali: and man, it showed.
rach: barrowman doesn't let anyone be tired. suggests drinks at nine in the morning.
rach: anthony lewis [tommy from the last man] is great. talks about military history.
rach: talking about machine guns again. hard filming with reduced cast. keeps asking for marsters to come back.
kali: aww they miss their bff! they are so straight boys in love.
rach: new season will have potential new team members but unclear who yet.
rach: gray said he would run right back to stage
rach: gdl talks graciously about how overwhelming this all is.
kali: i wonder if scary girl from yesterday found him, and he had to run for his life and virtue.
rach: marsters likes scripts with momentum. gdl looks for number of lines and then goes back to enjoy the story.
kali: i.e. first: how much air time, and which flavor of ianto the writers have decided he is this week.
rach: they all say good scripts can be done badly
kali: nice of them to cover for some of those scripts, and i use the term loosely.
rach: trying to be discreet about scene where john hart pulls gun out of ass
kali: there's a way to be discreet about that?
rach: cut scene about ianto feeding jack pizza during meat meeting and it's really dirty and funny. details later. [and somewhere in the lost files of torchwood, exists some film where ianto is feeding jack pizza during the emo-space-whale meeting in order to show the progression of their relationship (???), and then barrowman takes gdl's hand and puts it on his cock. in a boardroom meeting scene. and then the director pulls gdl aside later and says, 'yeah funny, etc. etc., but kinda camp, and you should try to pull it back a little, yeah?' gdl reflects on how annoying it is because barrowman comes up with all this insane shit, but no one yells at him because he's the star.]
kali: film at 11? please?
rach: dirty joke about loosening tosh up. lots of blushing.
rach: favorite swear words. gdl says he likes a good fuck.
kali: and we shall crown him king of the *ahem* straight lines.
rach: orgy question re john hart and if ianto was into idea. gdl says ianto is a pervert.
kali: and that's the sound of a million keys going tappity-tappity
rach: gdl played mack the knife a few times. loves brecht. likes shows where actors address audience out of character. like sweeney todd.
kali: i think i love him.
rach: talking about their girlfriends
kali: 'cause when those two are on stage, they really ought to, for clarity if nothing else.
rach: marsters tells girl to eat microphone. gdl says show not becoming more childfriendly. at all.
kali: how soon till shirt off now? bets?
rach: two captain sandwich comes up again. now we're talking about how much he loves adam episode again.
rach: he's a bit shy about how much fun it was
kali: burn that kink closet for kindling, gareth! burn it!
rach: talking about queer stuff. marsters loves how angry queer content has made some people.
rach: gdl says he has no agenda or discomfort with it. and that he loves that it's never an issue on the show.
rach: favorite episode to film was cyberwoman. favorite to watch was countrycide or fragments.
rach: talking about actually getting hurt on set. marsters gets hurt a lot. details on this later. torchwood car is really uncomfortable.
rach: gdl makes tea boy joke. says ianto probably is not fluent in welsh but has some and could get fluent fast if he had to.
kali: and in lieu of actual joke, i try to prevent my brain from going to teabagging.
rach: talking about gdl's hometown and going out and getting trashed there with marsters. [apparently they got pissed, and then pissed on the courthouse]
kali: ...
rach: more dirty mic jokes.
rach: everyone wants to play macbeth
rach: gdl wants audience to side with macbeth
rach: talking about adrift sex scene and how sweet barrowman is when he knows someone is nervous.
rach: gdl tries to rap
kali: and does he succeed? *g*
rach: rapping fails.
rach: talking about internet and fanfic. funny will write more about it later. [marsters: i used to look at it, but it's like heroin for me. it's really bad for my ego. i just had to stop. gdl: i look at it sometimes, it's good that i'm a stable person because people say some really awful shit. but it's funny and awesome.]
rach: stupid girl from yesterday gets up AGAIN. [this is she of the asking gdl out; apparently, she offered them another drink from her flask, and gdl said, "i got in trouble about that yesterday, so uh, thanks but no thanks." methinks someone's girlfriend gave someone a talking to 'bout that. thanks, stupid fangirl!]
kali: can you throw something at her for the sake of us all?
rach: talking about acting hart's love for jack. great story about barrowman. [apparently marsters hurt himself on the set one day, but didn't want to tell ppl because he didn't want to be a whiner; next day discovers, he's bleeding through his costume, and is now going to cost production both time AND money; he tells barrowman who fixes him up, with a doctor, helps him with the clean up and doesn't tell a soul. in short, the kind of person who you instantaneously fall in love with, so acting that, easy.]
rach: talking about how love makes people devious. and how ianto finds that sexy. eyecandy line comes up again. [they talk about their characters as calculating & devious, and how those things are not mutually exclusive with love. at all. ] panel ends.

I don't have opinions on Gray. Just think he's a proof of the "Harkness"' family good genes.
