Yeah. Also, doesn’t one episode of Pokemon have Ash explaining to somebody that ‘Misty is a girl who’s a friend, but not a girlfriend’? I can definitely see that evolving into something more, and from what I remember I definitely rooted for them, even way back when. I haven’t watched any post-trio episodes, so I’m glad that my memories aren’t tainted of Ash and Misty and Brock

[rose_of_pollux]

Actually, that was Misty who said "he's a boy and he's a friend"--that was in the second movie--the Lugia one. Interestingly enough, that was the first Pokémon movie I had seen--I had skipped Mewtwo Strikes Back initially because I wasn't sure how well I'd take Ash turning to stone, but I did eventually watch it and ended up liking the movie after all. XD; But the third movie, Spell of the Unown, will forever be my favorite of all the Pokémon movies.

**nods** Indeed.

...I cannot picture Veran ever genuinely falling in love. She seems to be out for herself. I did sort of have her flirt with Carl Kolchak in that blurb, but that wasn't genuine at all. Neither is her mothering Newkirk, I might add.

Oh, yes.

I really appreciate how the Max/99 relationship was eased into, definitely. They did that very well.

Wot? I thought I had convinced you that LeBeau and Newkirk are the closest!

[marie1964]

Hmm-- I don't remember watching the second movie. Though, me and my brother did see the first movie in theaters. How Mom ever put up with all those bright lights is something that still puzzles me. XD So, are you sure it wasn't mentioned in an episode somewhere?

Yes, I know that she's only using Newkirk because of his life force. Ooh, AU plot bunny! What if Veran was actually a good sorceress, or a sorceress who's being turned evil against her will? What exactly would be on the other side of the coin if it was flipped?

Well, you'll have to chase *me* down to admit that. XD Plus, I still love Carter way too much to leave him out of my fics, and we both love Newkirk the best, I believe.

[rose_of_pollux]

I'm pretty sure it was only mentioned in the Lugia movie--that's the one that everyone cites as Ash/Misty "proof."

Hmm. I don't know. Veran is a deep evil--of the shadows. She enjoys seeing others suffer, and she knows it. I don't think she was ever good, but if you want to try writing something like that, by all means, go right ahead. I'll read it. XD

In the immortal words of Rockapella... "Oooooooooh, the Chase!" I wrote that LeBeau-Newkirk essay... how long ago? And I still have yet to hear a counterargument from you...

(Actually, I love LeBeau and Newkirk equally)

[marie1964]

Well, I remember it was dark, at night, either on a beach or around some rocks, and a couple of other people were walking with them. It was definitely at night.

Oh, I don't know if I would actually *write* it. I mean, I certainly don't know as much about the verse as you do. But, if I can write Carter as an evil, blood-sucking vampire who wants to kill his friends again and again, and be homosexual, I think just about anything is possible at the moment.

Well, I've been busy with Real Life (honest excuse), I've yet to see every single episode (honest excuse), and are you sure you didn't major in Law/English? XD

(Oh. LeBeau is all well and good of course, but he's made a lot better whenever Newkirk is with him. I'm not saying anything by that, though. ;) )

[rose_of_pollux]

Yes, that was definitely the Lugia movie, when they run aground on Shamouti Island.

**shrugs**

LOL, odd as it may seem, I majored in Biology, not English or Law. XD

(Yeah, that's because he and Newkirk are best friends, and best friends bring out the best in each other! See? XD)

[marie1964]

Yes, I know that's what you majored in, based on what you've written about your upcoming career. I'm saying though that you seem to have majored in it, what with all of your convincing arguments....That I have yet to come up with a counter-argument for. XD

Well, you *did* say that Newkirk helped convince Carter not to run away in *Request permission to escape* So there! [As you can see, I'm not very good at arguing.]

[rose_of_pollux]

Muahaha.

No, it wasn't Newkirk that convinced Carter not to run away--it was the girl that did that. XD LeBeau changed his mind because he was worried about Newkirk and the others.
