Go To Your Happy Place

OMFG.

If this was the only sustainable reason I had to watch LotS, it would be all the reason I needed.

[VVC Sexuality Vidshow '10]

Summary: Deep in the heart of the Midlands, a battle of the sexes rages on. Choose your side.

Notes: This vid was made for the (awesome!) Sexuality vidshow at this year's Vividcon, and I'm so glad (the super very awesome!) geekturnedvamp not only requested a Seeker vid from me, but was totally supportive of my "Doll Parts but more fucked up" idea.

I was really interested in taking this (quite terrifying) masculine song and flipping it so that it applies to the women of LotS. I was especially eager to see what these (wtf seriously disturbed) lyrics would bring out in Kahlan, because it's always fun to really take a look at what is happening in this show, you know, beneath all the sparkly hearts and heartponies. And of course there are the boys. What happens when the lyrics are switched back to their original meaning? Can Richard-The-Very-Speshul-Rahl master his inner RAEG or will his thing rise up in him?! And let's not forget to mention how Mr. Darken Rahl likes to entertain himself. So there certainly is Stuff To Think About. I'll stop blathering on about it and let you do just that.

[It's interesting to note that after Vividcon I was really curious to see a female version of On the Prowl because an image of a woman being tortured means something entirely different from the same image of a man being tortured. I wanted to see the meaning change right there in front of me. And then it was brought to my attention that Deeper and Deeper did that thing and then that other thing and...oh snap.]
