CATS-related fanlistings! I thought I'd make this page a bit more interesting by rambling a bit as we go. About why I like them all and such~ ...OK, and as I go through these years after joining, I find that a lot of them have gone/moved/changed hands -- give me a bit of time to sort it out! Some of them don't seem to exist at all anymore... like *shocked* Jemima and Rum Tum Tugger!?!?
Well, I guess this is the place to start. I Am A Fan Of CATS. There, I've admitted it. Are you shocked??
Electra. I was undoubtedly led in the Electra love by quite a bit of very fine fanfic I read early in obsession... She is in the background a lot and maybe some people don't notice her... but some always do and absolutely take her to their hearts. She's that kind of girl :)
I really miss her - and Etcy - on Tour (although, yes, it's quite a treat to see Rumpelteazer and Tantomile taking their place in Tugger's song.....)
.
Grizabella... Grizabella! Much as we all love to obsess over everyone else, remember that without her, we wouldn't have ANY plot ^^; Her story is so sad; it's the emotional heart and the other side of CATS. She also just seems to connect very closely with all the Eliot-y images of the city and everything... (most of all I guess by the Preludes quotes in her song, but also just in her isolation and her outfit and everything)...which I like a lot.
.
...Jemi. First love and all. She's just incredibly special :) *note: ...ok, so there isn't currently a Jem fanlisting. I'm keeping the piccy here until there is.*
While I was never quite the madly-in-love fangirl of Misto (...I seemed to bypass that and go straight to Rum Tum Tugger), I still adore him to pieces. He makes explosions! *nods*
.
Mungojerrie!! And, ooh, look, Rumpelteazer's arm! Eee. I love Mungojerrie. 'E's so funny and cute and does the most amusing faces and voices (and dancing!) And he gets dramarama fanfics. *nods*
... oh, sorry, I just got distracted drooling over the 50x50 pixel picture of him ... Well, what do you want me to say? I fangirl Tugger like I have fangirled no one else. Ever. *note: WHY IS THERE NO LONGER A TUGGER FANLISTING!?*
Although *cough* I disagree with the spelling... I love Teazer. I love her giddiness and her giggle and her craziness and her fragility and her pearls... Everything. Guh. Probably my favourite fic that I've written was a long Rumpelteazer PoV and I loved writing it too.
eeeeeeee~ The Great Rumpus Cat. ALL HAIL AND ALL BOW! How incredibly, uniquely cool is he?
EEEEE. This is always one of my very, very favourite numbers live. (OK, so I may have quite a lot of very very favourite numbers, but STILL!) Dem and Bomb's solos... And then how it builds up to the loud bit with all the girls singing and dancing with about enough energy and intensity to blow up the theatre. I love it.
...Have I mentioned how Bombalurina is like my NewFavouriteCharacter!!!11?
Squeeee~ Just the most brilliant beginning to any show ever. My favourite bit? Oohhh... "Practical cats, dramatical cats..." *tingle down spine*
YARRAHAHAARRRR. I would pay to go see just this live. ('course, I'd prefer to see the whole thing, but I'll take what I can get, if some reason Growltiger's Last Stand decides to go on tour all by itself, you know, I'll see it! XD)
