Oh captain, my captain.

So, today (because it's still the 27th in parts-of-the-world-not-Europe) is our beloved captain's birthday. By which I mean Nathan Fillion's. Hence, picspam, because I couldn't really do one for Alan but none for him. He's our captain, after all, and oh how I heart him.
And first off, let me point out that it was so much harder to pick pictures for him than for Alan. Probably because I know exactly everything I love about Alan, whereas I fangirl Nathan less on an everyday basis, if that makes sense. And so for the record, I decided not to put anything of him in character because then I could not have chosen. ...well, there's one pic in character, but I don't think (m)any of you will have seen it. Anyway, here goes.
Let's start with the classic photoshoots

A young Nathan! Just because he was adorable and he hadn't yet gained that definite maturation of handsomeness, or whatever you wanna call it, but he was still damn cute.

Noir Nathan. Do I even need to comment on that one? I didn't think so.

Oh, hoodie. It's just a very cute picture, for some reason. The posture and the hoodie.

I love that photoshoot, if only for the reason that, even though you can't see it very well here, he's wearing the shirt he wore at the Deauville premiere. So. Much. Love for that shirt, if only because of the memories associated with it. And Nathan just looks damn handsome.

That's from an issue of Zink, which I'd never heard about but oh god yes please. It's a bit too much modelling for me, I like my captain best when he's just being himself, but oh well. Still, yum. And wait 'til you see the next one.

The simple suggestion of Nathan on a bike? Oh yeah. Especially with those clothes on. And there's just something about this pic. Love it.
And now some candid shots

This is Nathan's "so attentive to my fans" expression. He has this way of giving you his undivided attention and make you feel so special. He's one of those people that make me think of that quote from Mr Ripley, Marge about Dickie: "It's like the sun shines on you, and it's glorious." (And then she goes on about how awful it is when the sun is not directed on you anymore, but let's not go there. Nathan surely isn't such a prat as Dickie.)

And in the same vein, I now give you Nathan being so close to the Browncoats that he sat down to RPG with them. He played River. (And of course he had to put the pen in his mouth. Who does he think he is, Jayne? Not that I'm complaining, mind you.) He said at Serenity con that RPG wasn't for him, though, that he worked too much visually. Plus, "you lost me with the math." Heee!

And let's follow that up with the glasses of geek cuteness!So much better than Alan's. He is adorable. That is all.

That shirt, ladies and you menfolk. That shirt. So open. I have another picture of him in it, with Alan, but my boy looks so bad that, no. Just, no. This one will have to do, and I personally think it's more than enough. That shirt.
For the small story, there were browncoats behind that fence, and Nathan and Jewel and Alan came and said hi. It was at Universal, when they were shooting Serenity.

Because I love the faces he pulls. Look at that. Don't you love him too? That was at Flanvention.

And let's finish up the candids by a couple pics by
gambits_rogue. This one is just incredibly beautiful, I love that shot, the angle, everything. Brilliant.

And this one is just lovely because I love it when our captain's laughing. His laughter is so incredibly contagious.
Nathan and other Big Damn Heroes, co-stars, and girlfriend

So it's not exactly him and a BDH, but it's Big Damn Kaylee/Jewel Love. I think that's supposed to be Jewel, on the tshirt, I can't remember exactly but I think so. It was at Flan, anyway. He was at Flanvention, at a panel, and somebody asked the guys who their favourite girl on Serenity was, and that was his answer. (Each of the girls got picked by one of the boys, for the record. They did it well.)

Big Damn Adam love. I'm sure the Nathan/Adam shippers squeeed very loudly at that. I'm not one of them, and I squeeed all the same, because, ah. Big Damn BDH Love. I love that they all get on so well, and this pic is priceless.

How could I forget this pic? (Answer: because it wasn't in my BDH folder. What was it doing out of my BDH folder?) Big Damn Jonny Love. This is Nathan and Jonathan Woodward at Serenity Squared. Do I need to add anything? (For the record, they snogged for a good thirty seconds. It was not a mock kiss.)

Big Damn Morena Love. And I love the look on Nathan's face. "I'm being kissed by Morena Baccarin. Of her own free will. What more could a guy possibly want?"

I couldn't not post this one. Nathan, Gina, I love you.Michael Gowitz (sp?), you're dead to him. No further comment needed.

And another one of Nathan pulling a face, and oh Big Damn Ron Love. I adore Ron's laugh, and that he just doesn't hold back at all. Clearly Nathan's making him laugh his heart out. Yay!

Another picture by
gambits_rogue. Love it, too, the profile, and his hand around her waist, and the way she holds herself, and just, yay. Big Damn Summer Love.

Again,
gambits_rogue, because I just can't get enough of her pictures. I love this picture like crazy. Nathan is obviously in the middle of one of his stories - love the hand, and the look on his face, and Alan is looking at him sort of intrigued in an amused way, like "what's he gonna come up ith this time?"

And this one's triple pleasure! Nathan in his famous kilt (to succeed in Hollywood, you gotta show a bit of leg), Alan, andRuth Anne's cleavage (I'm sorry it needed to be said she's very, very, very sexy in this picture) Alan and Nathan in yet another picture together. Also, I love that on so many occasions you see Nathan wearing a brown coat. You might think it's only that he likes brown - and I hope for his sake that he does, otherwise he's even more dedicated than I thought - but he's said such things as let it on that he very well thinks of them as brown coats, too.

At the Slither premiere. So very, very, very elegant. Stunning. Gorgeous. Yum. With Elizabeth Banks (I think?), his co-star in Slither.

And at the Slither premiere with Ruth Anne. (Does she have a last name? Is Anne her last name? Who is she, what does she do, do we know anything? I'm so out of it.)

And the best BDH for the end. Yes, this is Joss mounting Nathan. No comment.
And now for that only in-character picture...
Okay, so this is not really a manip. It's from Nathan's episode of The Outer Limits. There's a slow pan over those two, and
vandonovan simply photoshopped it all back together. (When I say "simply," I actually mean "wonderfully." I'm pretty sure I couldn't do that.) It makes it look like Nathan's hairless but who cares, there's so much skin, and a much better view of the tat than we get in Trash, and yum. I love the way their bodies tangle up.

Happy 35th, Captain. Hope it'll be a good year for you.
(EDIT: I forgot one tremendously important picture. Check among his co-stars if boykiss is a word ya like.)

Date: 2006-03-28 02:34 am (UTC)Heh. ...now I'm wondering what year Puresex is from. Earlier, surely? *goes and checks* Yes, earlier. Tch.
You know what, Nathan completely distracted me from checking that scene from Knight. Not sure I'll have time right now. Also, I forgot to put in a pic of the Jonny snog. *facepalm* How can I make a Nathan picspam without the Jonny snog?

Date: 2006-03-28 02:38 am (UTC)I realised for Alan to make it I'd probably need for Capitol Law to not be picked up so I can't even really wish he'd come aaaaargh!Well, yours I make fun, his I call mugs. Just like for Alan. That's the main difference, really. It's not like he doesn't look ridiculous doing 'em.
No pic with Sean, no, sorry. I don't have the laughing one with Nathan behind him on my hard drive, and a quick google search and run through the latest Fillion Daily posts didn't give me it, so not. It already took me enough time putting that thing together as is.

Amazing with a camera. She always makes the best, best, BEST pictures. She's got a whole site for her con pictures, if you go on her LJ the link should be there. And yes, she'll be at Serenity Cubed to take pics of Gigi. :)

Date: 2006-03-28 06:25 am (UTC)Thanks for the picspam ^^
And just because I'm curious, who chose Summer between the boys ?
no subject
Date: 2006-03-28 03:48 pm (UTC)I... have no clue. I don't remember. I know Alan said Gina. One of the boys refused to choose - possibly Sean? Or Ron? Okay, I'm gonna go check it out now. 'Cause it's gonna bug me otherwise. Okay, so Alan said Gina, Sean abstained, Ron said Morena, Adam and Nathan conferred and then Adam said Summer and Nathan opened his shirt to show his tshirt.
