Dear Ridiculous Crush On Michael Weatherly, So we meet again.
Long, long ago, I sat around in my teeniness and watched Dark Angel and had big, throbby love for Logan Cale, idealistic cyberjournalist (be still my fluttering heart! you need that for having this babies!) WHO WEARS GLASSES and HACKS TV to give messages to a post-apocalyptic populace about the corruptions of their government. Logan was one of my first serious “No seriously, I would give you a drive by blowjob if only you walked past me on the street” victims listmembers, because (a) muckraking, truthseeking, glasses-wearing (nnngh) journalist and (b) Dude, he knows how to live elegantly. I’m going to be spending a lot of time in Seattle this summer wondering if possibly, even though I’d hate for James Cameron to be right about you know, a giant electromagnetic pulse knocking out all computer systems and sundry complications therein, Logan Cale is real? And possibly only canonically four years younger than I am and there for TOTALLY LEGALLY TAPPABLE?
My recent glomming onto NCIS for my hit of procedural drama-ness has resulted in a lot of throwbacks to teenaged fits of lust — which of course sent me trolling for information:
For those of you who have seen NCIS and remember the throwaway line in S1? About some guy who had tons of bank because he was the original importer of Swiss Army Knives into the country? I THINK THAT WAS ACTUALLY MICHAEL’S DAD. HIS MULTIMILLIONAIRE DAD WHO CUT HIM OUT OF THE FAMILY WHEN HE DECIDED TO PURSUE ACTING. SO BASICALLY: DINOZZO IS MICHAEL WEATHERLY.
This is what happens when you think of NO BACKSTORY for a character because it’s a procedural drama! Michael Weatherly worked in the tape library at ABC after being cut off to support his acting habit! He has a son! His son is named AUGUST. I — ! I — ! It’s all too much for me, really. D: D: D: Why haven’t he and I already made babies? I MEAN JUST LOOK AT HIM. GOD.
Of course, thinking about NCIS makes me think about Michael Weatherly makes me think about Dark Angel makes me think about what an APPALLING actress Jessica Alba was and still is to this day. Like seriously, I’m not kidding. Even though that sexual chemistry in the show (mmm) was sizzling off of the screen? She was just so bad — at everything. Which is only highlighted by the fact that if I’m to get my Michael Weatherly in glasses hit, I have to watch the damn show. Life = difficult.
You have a future husband tag! I LOVE IT.
BUT NOT AS MUCH AS I LOVE LOGAN, who I think is much hotter than DiNozzo, but possibly that’s just me. :)
Wanted to pass along a fic rec, since you seem to be in the market for good NCIS. Have you read Crimsonquill’s Awakening series?

Really interesting AU.
Oh god, I feel in love with him in Dark Angel also, he was the only reason I watched the show. There are some Lovely pics floating around the web of Michael Weatherly wearing glasses.
OH GOD, I haven’t made myself watch a whole episode of Dark Angel *yet*, but I died from the sheer HOTNESS of Michael Weatherly in glasses just from the snippet that I channel-surfed by. My brain melted. I have never had that reaction to anyone before! PRETTY!
I wonder if you’ve made it to the season 2 ep where Abby photoshops DiNozzo onto a GAY FETISH PORN photo which Kate accidentally sends to Gibbs. Or the season 3 ep of ho-hum casefile, but has Gibbs petting Tony’s hair and saying ‘Good boy’. GUH. Taking into consideration he called Tony ‘my loyal Saint Bernard’ only a few eps earlier is !!!!! I exploded all over the TV room.
I love NCIS because seriously, theirloveissocanon =)
