But Juliet's high-maintenance nesting + Lassiter wanting kids? PERFECT SOLUTION! He would love her decorative bossiness! He would totally let her bury her placenta in the backyard!
OH MY GOD!!! I was watching that ep this morning, and those were my thoughts exactly. Shawn is all eyerolly and squirmy, clearly indicating that he wants nothing of the sort, probably doesn't even want to get married at this point in time, let alone have a family, while Juliet had clearly put a lot of thought into it, and envisions having a family. Then think back to the ep where Lassiter was being all adorable holding Vick's baby and saying that he wanted kids. Coincidence that both Juliet and Lassiter's biggest desires for their future is to have a family? I think not! On first glance Rob-a-bye Baby is a Shawn/Juliet episode, trying to show how well they click, but when you look closer, they want completely different things, and we see that they aren't the great match that we are supposed to believe they are. In actuality, Juliet and Lassiter are the ones who match. Shawn is the guy that Juliet can have a fling with, but Lassiter is the kind of man that she could fall deeply in love with and have a successful marriage with him. OMG LASSITER AND JULIET SO BELONG TOGETHER! Even watching "Psy vs Psy" I managed to interpret Juliet's attraction to the jerky Special guy as inadvertently being attracted to Lassiter (because they were basically the same person, only Special was dark and muscley as opposed to being pale and lanky). But what she liked about him was his authority, and how good he was at his job (and yes, his body) and all this can be found in Lassiter (except for the body, but frankly, I'd rather get me a piece of the Lassie).
Totally do it! Please! The world needs more Lassiter/Juliet fanvids!
I'll do my best! I'm a bit overwhelmed since I can't remember which scenes come from which episode, so it's taking me forever, but hopefully I can get it done. The stupid power went out for three hours (damn wind) and so I haven't gotten any of it done yet.
And Lassiter/Juliet is so clouding my head that I'm even tempted to try a fanfic for them. This takes more courage than vidding though. I only write fanfic if I can get the characterizations just right. If it's the least bit OOC, then I get angry and delete it.

ZOMG, I totally, totally agree with all of this. When I rewatched that episode a few weeks ago, I was surprised I missed that underlying subtext, especially since Omundson called LDP's character an "uber-Lassiter."
If you have any questions like the one you had this morning, I might be good for a leg up. And as for fic, I have every faith that if your meta is this good, a fanfic will be brilliant.

Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you! You're awesome. Actually, I do have a question. There was a scene (I'm pretty sure from season 1) where Lassiter and Juliet are walking on a sidewalk and Lassie says something like, "Let's canvas the neighborhood" and Juliet tells him that was a good idea, and he thinks she's being sarcastic, then she thinks he's being sarcastic when he says thank you. Any idea which ep that is from, by any chance?

*blushes* I wish! The most I can hope for is mildly entertaining. Hee. I still love that fic you wrote about Lassie not being able to use Juliet's first name. Not that was brilliant. LOVE! But I do have an idea in my head that refuses to leave, mostly because you said you wanted to see some reciprocation from Juliet, so my head instantly went into fanfic mode.
