This Post Is Entirely About Fandom

I don't suppose anyone has any good Harry Potter fanfic recs they'd care to pass along, would they? I've kind of been in a hankering for some Potterverse ever since seeing HP:HBP a short while ago and seeing the resulting meta and sort of mentally revisiting it, but since I've never really been in that fandom to begin with, I don't exactly know the

And I wouldn't be surprised if they're just saying that right now to cover themselves, and actually have no idea how the memories would be different.

Well, I can already think of one...maybe Dominic was still at the Dollhouse at the end there, and Caroline was just too freakin' tunnel-visioned to even notice. (Yes, I am obviously kind of overly heavily occupied with the mystery of where the HELL was Dominic after that one flashback. Alllll the crazy shit that went down, and that's still the first question I would ask Joss Whedon if we were trapped on an elevator together. Question two may or may not be, "Do you need any more writers on staff??")

I really hope Adelle is still alive. And Dominic. A new humanity from the genes of those two....okay, my mind is going to its happy place right now...yes, it's a weird place...but it's definitely happy.

*deep breath* ...Okay, um...does it make me a bad fangirl if every time someone starts squeeing about the prettiness that would be Dom/DeWitt babies (which, not gonna argue there, obvs), my first thought is always that I feel sort of compelled to point out Adelle is...probably of or very close to the age where that's likely no longer possible? *cringe*

And speaking of AUs, have I told you lately how glad I am that you're in this fandom? Well I am. You're our AU Queen *hands you crown encrusted with jewels the colour of Dominic's eyes*

Aww! How'd you even know blue was my favorite color? ;)

>maybe Dominic was still at the Dollhouse at the end there, and Caroline was just too freakin' tunnel-visioned to even notice.

I can see that being the kind of thing they'd change. That's the way memory works, so it makes a lot of sense.

>"Do you need any more writers on staff??"

You'd better ask that! And then put in a good word for me (even though you've never read my writing, lol) ;P

>I feel sort of compelled to point out Adelle is...probably of or very close to the age where that's likely no longer possible?

I thought the exact same thing as I typed it! So no, no bad fangirl hand slapping (or should that be mind-wiping?) for you. My fix? I've decided that Adelle definitely has a background in science, and due to the dire situation and her feelings of guilt regarding her role in the decimation of man, develops a fertility drug while at Safe Haven so that she can contribute to rebuilding the species. There. Done. ;)

>Aww! How'd you even know blue was my favorite color? ;)

Oh I just had a hunch ;)

...oh my god, Adelle DeWitt on pregnancy hormones. Oh my GOD, Adelle DeWitt and a not-yet-fully-reconciled Laurence Dominic being thrown into the deliciously awkward situation of her being knocked up after they have random it's-the-fucking-apocalypse hatesex and now they have to try and deal with this shit together. OH MY GOD.

Um. I'll be in my bunk.

[sunney]

Someone needs to write that. Like now. Seriously. Someone write that. I will read it. Multiple times.

[demonqueen666]

Don't look at me, dude. No way I could do that half the justice it deserves. Or, if I tried, it would probably end up being crack wherein all that really happens is DeWitt announces she's pregnant and everybody says "...WHAT??" a whole bunch of times.

[sunney]

HAHAHAHA! That would be hilarious! A fic full of facial expressions and "WHAT?"s. I always love the reactions of characters outside the main plotline. That's why your hints to Paul's discovery of Adelle and Dominic in your Waking 'verse make me all giggly XD

I don't know if that fic should be sarcastic and realistic or dramatic and angsty. Could go both ways really, though a delicately balanced mix of both would probably be best. Who can we convince to write this thing? Anyone have Joss' number? It can be an AU webisode series or something :P

[demonqueen666]

A fic full of facial expressions and "WHAT?"s. I always love the reactions of characters outside the main plotline.

And then when they finally calm down, someone asks her who the father is. And she says Dominic. And then everybody goes "...WHAT??" some more.

...And, really, just picturing the look on Dom's face as this is all unfolding is enough to keep me amused for days.

[sunney]

Heeeee! Oh man XD Now, our "picturings" may be different, but I totally see a series of expressions, flitting around randomly as he tries to deal, a mix of "you want to make something of it?", "Adelle, shut up" and "Oh ya, I hit it". LOL.

[demonqueen666]

Lol! I think mine was mainly this wide-eyed dear-in-the-headlights look of "OH SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT" and more "...WHAT??" and, really, just pure unbridled panic.

Though also, because Dom can be kinda, uh, brusque at times, especially when he's had the rug yanked out right from under him, I'm sort of picturing this scenario: DeWitt says something along the lines of "I'm pregnant, it's yours", and he just STARES at her for like, five minutes, eyes wide and expression completely unreadable, and then, finally, he goes, "Aren't you kind of old?"

(And in the background, somebody may facepalm.)

[sunney]

Heh, oh Dom XD I can totally hear that coming from his lips. Ya, my envisioning was after he'd had time for it to sink in a bit and they announced it to everyone...which would probably be when they couldn't hide it anymore ;P (and I almost missed the fact that I typed 'hit' instead of 'hide' in that last sentence. Freud?)

[demonqueen666]

which would probably be when they couldn't hide it anymore ;P (and I almost missed the fact that I typed 'hit' instead of 'hide' in that last sentence. Freud?)

Pffft!! XD "When they couldn't hit it anymore"? (That's not until, like, the third trimester! Boy, I'd sure hope somebody else would've noticed by then...)

Oh god, now I'm picturing the cliched HornyOnPregnancyHormones!Adelle, like, cornering Dom like a wild beast going in for the kill.

*several hours later*

"Wow, Dominic what happened to you??"
"Kill me...oh god...can't walk...she's insatiable...so tired...make it stop..."

[sunney]

Boy, I'd sure hope somebody else would've noticed by then...

I know! It made no sense at all! LOL.

"Kill me...oh god...can't walk...she's insatiable...so tired...make it stop..."

LOL! Emphasis on the 'OL' XD I can't stop laughing at the image in my head. And you know Adelle would be stalking after him. Oh I need air!

[demonqueen666]

Dom would totally go hide with Topher in his pod-fort (on one of his "good days", I mean).

"...uh, Dom? Is that...what are *you* doing up here?"
"SHH!! Keep your voice down, you idiot. If Adelle finds me-"
"What?"
"...I just...I'm so, so tired. SO tired. I'm sore in places I didn't even know I had. I think I might have broke something. God, I'm so tired."
"...O...kay. I'll just...yeah."

[sunney]

*giggles like a schoolgirl* And then in bid to raise his energy levels (carbs needed!) Dom would wolf down Topher's last bag of Cool Ranch Doritos (the last existing in the world!!), and Adelle would be alerted to his location by Topher's girly screams of abject horror. XD

[demonqueen666]

And then Topher would have a small breakdown, and Adelle would be piiiissed, and then very severely inform Dom she intends to "punish him". Hard.

And then Dom cries like a little girl.

(Oh yeah, it is SO three in the morning over here.)

[sunney]

*tries to stifle laugh* *fails*

I can hear Adelle, with her prim and proper accent saying "Haaahd" sternly with narrowed eyes, after which would emerge a smug grin.

And while he weeps, she wipes his tears and says in low tone, "There, there. You do deserve it my dear. Scarring poor Topher's psyche even more than it already is. But don't worry, I'll make it allll better." While leading him away from the pods...

(It's half past two here now...and I have the sugary goodness of donuts as my excuse too! LOL ;))
