Um so this is random. I'm rewatching TLW. (again... xD) and it occurs to me that Marguerite and Roxton spend like half their lives being angsty and meaningful in caves.

odakota_rose February 23 2011, 21:42:19 UTC

ALSO, HI. I MISS YOU. *glomps*

borg_princess February 24 2011, 00:50:37 UTC

And yes, same here, darling. *fervently tacklehugs you* Why won't you stayyyyy? *shakes fist at RL* I know, I know, you're being a responsible adult, but still...

ILU always! ♥

( ... )

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 01:31:46 UTC

D'aww, adorableness! <3
I miss you like crazy darlin', I'm working on that sucky life thing, because being a responsible adult is way overrated. I'm just sayin',
*glomps*

borg_princess February 24 2011, 01:34:08 UTC

My poor bb. You still working two jobs and studying and whatnot? *shudders* I have uni starting again in...zomg, less than a fortnight! *flails* But it's only two units, so...shouldn't be too tough. *fingers crossed*

And I totally believe you, becoming a responsible adult was never high on my list of priorities...I shall sit back and watch you blaze the path. :P

*hugglesmooch*

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 01:44:59 UTC

Pfft, you can totally have it xD But yeah, still pulling double duty (I mean, it's not as bad as it could be, they're both part time jobs so it's not like I'm constantly working, and classes are going to be in a few weeks so I've got a bit of time to get ready, lol.

Seriously, I don't mind, you can have it *grin* I'd rather just hang out and watch TLW and all my other shows and flail with you. ^^

borg_princess February 24 2011, 02:00:05 UTC

Good luck getting ready for classes. I haven't actually studied in...god, it feels like years! It's gonna be so hard to get back into the grind, ugh. Submitting essays, doing readings, cramming for exams... *wibbles* And worst of all, PAYING FOR TEXTBOOKS. I'mma check out the library, see if I can borrow them instead. The prices are just unreasonable, I say!

I'd rather just hang out and watch TLW and all my other shows and flail with you. ^^

Mmm, my idea of heaven! *sighs*

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 02:10:52 UTC

I love being in school, but the textbooks thing is definitely gonna be an issue, things have been kinda tight lately and we're cutting back all over, but the truck's in the shop again and we're still not sure if we're gonna have to get another car, so... idk. I might end up pushing classes down a few months again. -sigh-

Mmm, my idea of heaven! *sighs*

Yay for a rewatch of the awesomest crackiest show ever! And lol, yeah, most of their milestones involve caves! And most of their relationship revolves around the Momentus Interruptus. I'm having vivid recollections of the pirate treasure ep where the earth gives way beneath them in order to ruin the moment, lol! Even NATURE interrupts them, when the others are not around to do it!

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 01:42:53 UTC

Bahaha, so true. I love your italics there, I just busted up laughing out loud when I read that because it's such a major conspiracy, even the ground and other such nature things interrupt them. lol. Which is kind of pathetic because isn't mother nature supposed to be all about love and togetherness? What's with this interruptus stuff, eh ( ... )

borg_princess February 24 2011, 01:58:00 UTC

mother nature supposed to be all about love and togetherness?

Not when it comes to our OTP! I'm also remembering that early s1 ep where Marguerite and Roxton are so adorable, they're totally into this love-hate flirty vibe and Ned gets stuck in quicksand, lmao, so he's in mortal peril and they're kinda like. 'Hmm, shall we take a break from being ridiculously hot and shippable to save his life? IDK, what say you?'

Marguerite makes me crack up so much when she's reluctant to get dirty and Ned's like, 'PLEASE?!' *gigglefit*

how much foreshadowing there is in that ep, not so much in terms of plot, though there's a bit of that too, but in terms of the people they'll become

I love that you notice all that stuff! I hadn't even thought of it that way... Whoa, the student surpasses the master! *wipes away tears of pride*

John stops her to tell her to be careful, there's a moment where she's about to argue with him over it and then just accepts that he said it and moves onMmm, I love subtle moments like that. I mean, touchy and ( ... )

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 02:08:27 UTC

'Hmm, shall we take a break from being ridiculously hot and shippable to save his life? IDK, what say you?'

AHAHAHAHA. I remember this! I just don't know which ep. I'm gonna grab my DVDs and check this evening I think.

Whoa, the student surpasses the master! *wipes away tears of pride*

*preen* I'm honestly just following in your footsteps hun. You're the one that got me going all meta on this show ;D

Seriously, there are other shows I love and that are much more commercially viable and popular, but I stand by my opinion that no ship has ever been as well-written and developed as this. ♥I agree wholeheartedly with this statement. Honestly, I've said the very same thing to several people. While there are other ships that I love dearly, I have to say that this is the best written one that I've ever seen. The whole third party romances get really old, really quickly. And with Castle, despite the fact that my love for that show knows no bounds, (ALSO ZOMG CLIFFHANGER HAVE YOU SEEN IT?? I AM GOING TO DIE WAITING FOR NEXT MONDAY, ALRIGHT ( ... )

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 02:14:19 UTC

Wait, was it Out of Time? Because if I'm not mistaken, Marguerite was wearing red in that scene.. Or maybe Paradise Found?

borg_princess February 24 2011, 02:19:10 UTC

Out of Time! That sounds familiar! The one your icon's from! Only now I'm sad, because I think that they forget everything that happened in that ep, no? Gah! I always get miffed because I don't want character development to be forgotten, grr! I did love how the druid was kind of a shipper- wasn't she holding onto his hand, and then when the fog cleared and they were put back where they were at the beginning of the ep, she was holding onto Roxton's hands? MUST REWATCH.

And Paradise Found is another one I've been thinking of lately. I love that ep so much! The balance of UST and slight angst....oh, my heart!

odakota_rose February 24 2011, 02:25:23 UTC

Yup! You're good, I had a feeling you'd catch that. *glomps* I cannot be a sneaky icon ninja around you, lol. But didn't they reference what happened in Out of Time later on in season 3 and Marguerite seemed to remember? I'm forgetting which episode, but I'm 99% sure they mentioned something about it. So... idk, maybe the memories resurfaced later when they needed them?

You know, I'd honestly forgotten just how much I enjoy season one until I got back to it. All three are great, but there's something about them being all prickly and snarky that makes me gleeful. Not that season 3 isn't my favorite, because it totally is, but they all have a special place in my heart ^^
