Oh, yeah, I played piano and viola for awhile, too. Tried chorus, but I hate my voice. Laughing

The funny thing is, I never did dance or theater... and now those two make up my whole job. Laughing

I was in chorus, played Clarinet in band, (I still pull the old thing out for a few bars of chaos Cool

), and acted in a bunch of plays. Now I draw and...draw some more. I'm just a big visual and performing art nut Razz

Jasmine and Jafar or Jasmine and Mozenrath

Hey, no booing flutes! I'm a professional flutist! (Insert joke here, here, and here, haha).

Sorry I keep coming around and resurrecting ooold topics... this website is not only addictive but a safe-house for those of us who reeeally don't want to be too old to obsess over Aladdin! (I made an Aladdin joke to my 12-year-old flute student the other day and she had no idea what I was talking about. Not only was it incredibly depressing, but it's the first time in my twenty-one years I've felt old...)

Anyway, getting back on topic...
I fully support the theory that Iago has a crush on Jasmine. I always thought that during "Eye of the Beholder" because it was just so out of the blue for Iago to freak out about (that said, it was probably just for plot purposes) but then I also noticed it in the episode where Abis Mal and Mechanicles team up (I think it was "The Flawed Couple") and put those mood stones on the gang. Iago falls in love with Jasmine. Although it was just because of the stone, I always liked to think it had been deep in his subconscious for a long time Smile

.
I also like the idea of Jasmine having a crush on Jafar as a little girl. He has a certain regal-ness about him. I couldn't really see her going for Rasoul, with the missing tooth and all, haha.

I really like the Jasmine/Mozenrath idea but I think it would have to be sneaky. If someone hasn't already done this in a fan-fic, I think it would be a great idea: Mozenrath tricking Jasmine by switching bodies with Aladdin (IE "Two to Tangle") and then marrying her or something. I mean she'd eventually figure it out and totally destroy him, but it would make a great fan-fic! I also like the Mozenrath-Sadira combo, because as street smart as Sadira is, she seems kind of naive and, from a psychological standpoint (I know, I'm a nerd) could be very vulnerable to someone as powerful as Mozenrath.

And although it's a bit anachronistic, couldn't you guys totally see Jafar and Mirage hooking up? They're both the same kind of evil.

Meh, ff.net is flooded with Jasmine or Aladdin/Jafar stuff, too, but this fandom is small enough that coming up with a pairing and getting a couple fans for it is going to be half way on the way to unconventional anyways.

I can never really get past it in my own mind that he probably thought she was a complete pain in the ass, and wouldn't want anything to do with her past what he needs her for, and in the case of the movie, a faster way of getting to the throne to become sultan once that idea was planted in his head.

Once he got to that point and then some without her, everything after was a display of his unstoppable power and how she (or her father, really) can't do anything about it this time, his ability to force a very proud and headstrong person into submission when he's more than aware she doesn't like that and has been fighting against submitting to something or someone she doesn't want to the whole movie (which might have been where all that sexual frustration came from as a result. A fiery and independent person like Jasmine being basically your slave and doing whatever you want after so much resistance? Oh yeah, he'd be all for that. He likes that sort of thing Laughing

), and his dominance over her when he's now the one calling the shots and she's the one force to comply. Not that I can't ever see him being attracted to someone, but Jafar's dealings with Jasmine would be strictly business. Twisted business in some cases probably, but business. If anyone grew a soft spot for Jasmine in the palace, it was Iago Laughing

I've also entertained the notion that he was just ever so tipsy when he was talking to Jasmine and some of that was the alcohol talking (which I'm surprised no one has ever yelled at this movie for. Maybe they remembered the Caliphs had wine, too, when they shouldn't be since that's a big religious no-no Laughing

. That might be reading more into the power thing, too).
