this was originally done in 2006 in my journal of the time, [info]lorrrbe, but it's relevant again because of [info]picspammy's new challenge. and since these moments are still pretty much my favourites, i don't see why i shouldn't repost it! even though now that i think about, there's so many other scenes i'd like to add to this list. hmm, well, maybe i'll make a part two, who knows!
