Firefly Fans, I warn you! DO NOT GO TOO FAR!! by silence

Holy shit.
SAFETY FIRST, DIRECTOR DUMBA$$!
Hope the ear and arm healed good, if you poor victim should read this by any chance. Nothing to be ashamed of, girl, it's all the director's fault. Didn't you notice how most of the evil guys' names in "Masters of the Universe" end in "-or"? That should have been your first clue right there.
Man, that must have been aweful, being tied and gagged and having cut half an ear off and then breaking an arm trying to get off the chair in a panic. It'd be funny if it weren't so darn cruel.
For some reason, I'm hearing the music from the ear scene in Reservoir Dogs in my head. But music is better than voices, I guess, so I ain't complainin'.

Must have been the first Serenity fan fluff movie. I'll be looking forward to it on the next Faces of Death (nah, don't watch that crap, real life violence is teh suck.). Should get good laughs in the gag reel, too.
Be glad the director wasn't setting you on fire and throwing you off a cliff for a stunt scene he had in mind.
But hey, you got to have a chat with Nathan and embarass yourself in public in front of your favorite actors (again, not your fault), that's something! Not entirely something good, but hey, tough times.

Come to think of it, I'd cut half my ear off to have a chat with Summer.
But not really.
Because I wouldn't be as pretty, and I would wanna look my best. I'm not stoopid, you know.

That's a REALLY sad story!! Which I would never have gotten out! Number one because I'd have a hard time breathing, being that close to the Big Damn Hero's(Summer, in particular!) and number two, it's actually a little funny in hindsight.

Actually, it's a GIRL.

Bauer, from serenitymovie.org, posted that for the benefit of the gals over at their Appreciatin' Nathan thread. (Of which I'm also a member)

Nathan had approached her earlier, asking why she was all bandaged up. He pulled her onstage and called her a guy! She was so embarrassed, she didn't correct him. Later on, he grabbed her in the hallway and apologized for the mixup.

She does stuntwork sometimes. I believe, if I remember correctly, that the film she's referring to was a small indie film. It was not Firefly related.

Sorry, but I don't have prints. They're all one-off pencil sketches. Someone mentioned to me about getting a DeviantArt account where they do that sort of thing for you. I haven't looked into it, but with the amount of requests for copies I've been getting, perhaps I will.

Thanks for the positive comments, by the way.

Hey guys - yeah that's me on stage.

As for calling me a fella - I don't blame him either so no hard feelings on that part.

Before the role I had to get my hair substantially cut (so that the cutting of the ear could be seen properly). I also dressed as Wash for Alan Tudyk night at the con and had "If Zoe chose Mal..." written on the back (well it made me laugh!).

My voice - yup, low voice AND I was trying to disguise the fact that I'm Edmontonian. I hadn't told any of my friends I was Canadian (and not Scottish) and it was hard keeping a Scottish accent when next to Nathan - a guy who speaks exactly as I should! I guess that messed up my speech a little too.

The idea with the knife (I didn't explain very well). The knife was mocked up to have a tube running along the inside of the knife not facing camera. The tube then let blood flow down and onto my ear. This meant that they could not tell they were cutting into my ear as real blood mixed with fake. The restraints weren't even fully tied down. It was metal bars that actually tucked under the arm rest rather than around it. So the left arm restraints gave but my right arm gave before the restraints.

Also - my bauer name is actually because of hockey sponsership and not the tv show. However, I have just about as much luck as tv show Bauer lol.

Bauer

P.S. I actually had my ear ripped off AGAIN and a little more than it had been cut originally after being on stage. Some girl was jealous of my stage encounter.

EDIT: Read topic title properly - this was NOT a firefly fan film. It was a small indie film. I was playing a scottish girl who could speak Mandarin. Seeing as I'm a Canadian girl who speaks CANTONESE and not Mandarin - I still wonder how I got that role!

The second story:

I go towards the toilet which is down some stairs. Now as odd as this seems it was quiet. No one was around (conspiracy? Planned attack maybe?). Anyway I head this girl behind me say "B*tch". Before I get a chance to turn around and find out why she was making such a statement she takes a swipe at me ear. It hurt like hell and all I wanted to do was hit back. However, I feared I would get kicked out of the con for fighting. At this point I didn't actually realise my ear was half off again or that the blood pouring down the side of my neck would have gone in my favour in winning the arguement over who should be thrown out!

I didn't realise the extent of the injury 'til I got to the bathroom. I carried some tape and whatnot with me in my bag so I decided to just tape it back on and get it fixed when the con was over and I was back home (this was the Saturday and I would be back home Monday morning). So my ear was litterally taped to the side of my head (I added some butterfly stitches later that night to help) for the rest of the convention. I ended up missed the autos that night trying to get my ear fixed back on - and finding another tshirt! I got all the autos the following night tho, PHEW!

I considered entering the fancy dress, it would have looked cool with a ear hanging off, lots of blood and a blood soaked shirt, but - there were little kids present. I couldn't do that lol.

Holy shit. I would have been screaming like a little girl on fire all the way to the hospital, to which I would have run off immediately.
You scare me. But it's a sexy kinda scare.

But you deserve it! Just sitting next to Nathan like that! (If it was about that.) You practically took him away from her! hwai, it's sad to see that some Browncoats are on level with 12 y.o. Backstreet Boys fans. I mean HER, of course, not you. Now I know why girls usually go to the toilet in pairs... bodyguard, just in case someone jealous wants to rip their ears off.

What an interesting story. At least you got to get up on stage and talk to Nathan and Summer. I suppose that's the positive side to all that mess.

How could a fellow Browncoat do that to you? I would have been so pissed. People should be happy for other people not jealous.

Hope your ear heals well, and you don't have anymore trouble with it. :)

Monday, April 24, 2006 3:28 PM

TOXIC AVENGER!!! OMG - you have no idea how jealous I am lol.

Jackie Chan is the man, I watched a lot of chinese films studying kung fu etc, so I was a big Jackie fan from the age of 3, I was also a huge Chow Sing Chi (Stephen Chow) fan - he recently did Saolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle.

As for broken bones - I've definately had my fair share, you asked for it lol:

Head- fractured skull, stupid stunt with kung fu mates when I was only just 6!! If you know Armour of God - I fractured my skull the same way Jackie did.

Ear - Left ear half hacked off....twice!! (Once for surgery and once for the afore mentioned torture story EVERYONE knows now!)

Nose - fractured twice but thankfully very cleanly so no abnormalities, you really can't tell.

Jaw - dislocated

Neck - taken a LOT of puck hits - but no lasting damage

Shoulders - fractured and dislocated. Right = once Left = thrice

Chest - broken 13 ribs to date. Fractured and dislocated sternum - yup, it CAN be done!!

Arms - Shattered right elbow. Broken arms Right - twice, Left - once.

Hands - MESS!! Lots of surgery, many bones not just broken but in pieces!! Told I would never play the piano/guitar again. Well I can't play for long but I sure can play!!

Fingers - broken every finger and thumb at least once.

Pelvis - broken

Legs - Crushed. Right knee broken in fluke skiing accident

Feet - Sole broken, but broken by Kiefer Sutherland and BOY was he a suck up after that!!!

Toes - only two breaks.

Reason for all this. The car crash that killed my family (I was 6), left me pretty busted up (ribs, pelvis, crushed legs, hands smashed!). Can you believe that the guy who did it got 3 years?! WTF?!?!

Also, I started Kung Fu when I was 3. After my family died I went to a Kung Fu school as a foster home for some time. We were put through some pretty tough training and a lot of us got hurt now and again. I fractured and dislocated my sternum there. I couldn't breathe and all I remember before promtly passing out is my Master hitting me with his cane thing telling me to suck it up and get up!!!

I bet there some injuries I haven't included. Come to mention it, After fracturing my skull I've had problems with my hearing and had to have radical surgery on my inner ear (the first time my ear got half hacked off lol). They took out one of the bones in there and its now stored in my ear lobe - NO JOKE, if you feel my ear lobe you can feel a bone. How many folk can say they have a bone in their ear lobe? Hehe.
