Euro 2012 and a Meme

I've nothing much to say about the group D games other than Gerrard, Ibrahimovic and Shevchenko all played a captain's innings. Especially Shevchenko. Quite frankly, I hope a lot of pundits choke on their words.

6 - Genderswap/Always A Girl - Both always girls. Goes AU round about WW2, the idea being that women's wrestling got to be the more popular one.

She knows she shouldn't be bitter, coming into the business she knew that she'd probably never be the star. She's not pretty enough for that. She prefers 'striking' or 'handsome', but knows that butch tends to be the word people use.

She chooses to believe that it doesn't bother her, but she knows that if it really didn't she wouldn't feel quite so ... conflicted about Christine's success.

It wasn't that Christine didn't work hard, she'd thump anyone who said differently, but things were easier when you were a pretty girl like Christine.

And yes, she should be less bitter when it's her girlfriend going for the gold, even if that relationship's kept very much between themselves. She doesn't blame Christine for that, as the boss-man said, "the fans don't mind when it's two babes, but ..."

Will was present for that meeting, and finished the boss's sentence with "point" rather than let him end it, because the man was a genius, but he had a way with words that left crude and vulgar in the dust, and whatever he had intended to say would have been offensive.

She'll be happy for Christine, eventually, but there's something aggravating about having to job in the curtain jerker when Christine's booked to win in the main event.
