So, it seems I can finally share my NP feelings with someone else, and it feels so good! :D Mostly, I got used to the idea of not having any other Nathan/Peyton chances since when, well, since the end of S3. I mean, NH married again, you know. It makes me sad, though, because I really loved Nathan/Haley together, mostly during season 1 and 2, so it makes me feel weird to say I'm sorry NP didn't work. Obviously, people take this too seriously, and everytime I said I loved NP, I got yelled at because I was "speaking against" Nathan/Haley, which is ridicolous because 1) it's fandom and 2) people have the right to say what they think :-\ However, I've enjoyed NP friendship during all these years. It was cute to see her help him when Hales left, it was cute 4x13, and mostly it was cute their pool scene in S1 when they had that little spark that made me actually hope there was still space for more. But I guess most people like NH, and writers got it. It's like, uhm, a 'sacred' thing. Also, people kept bashing Peyton because, MEH, I don't even see WHY, actually. And then it came that ridicolous thing between Brooke and Nathan (and be sure that I like Sophia, I'm really, really talking about fandom randomly!) and all of a sudden it was okay to imagine something between them. So, this huge rant, for which I apologize (lol), was meant to say I am really happy there's someone else who likes NP and I can share this stuff with.
We could be very likely the same person EXCEPT I like the new Skins, I don't take it too seriously and I have a serious addiction for Effy Stonem, so at least we don't share every little thing, lol.
Gorgeous graphics - NP pool scene ♥
Hum, sorry, again, for this long comment :D hope I didn't bother you too much :)
so 1st skins ;) i guess the opening episode scared me that much because i'm really sensitive when it comes to topics that effect the youth of today. i don't know i just step out of the house every day watching those 13 years old girls walking around like effy, drinking alcohol before school, smoking etc. and even if it's just a tv show it's just too much this time. In s1 and 2 doing drugs, smoking, partying everything was just fun and playful and i loved to watch. but now the characters are younger and the stories are even crazier. i'm really not a saint myself but the writers should be a little more careful with their show and how they could affect young teenagers...
2nd One Tree Hill. thank you so much for this! i could relate to everything you said! <33 sadly i have also lost hope for a nathan&peyton ending, but i'm still sitting in front of my pc each new episode hoping and praying for a neyton scene. i just can't give up on them. Besides that i really liked nathan and haley in s1 and 2 and fall in love with them again in s5 when i watched it last week. but it's just like you said. everybody automatically thinks that you dislike them when you admit that you are a neyton shipper. They are definitely taking fandom (especially OTH!) too seriously. And i guess we probably have to thank all those 'crazy' naley shippers that we don't get any new neyton scenes. i got the feeling that the writers read viewers opinions a lot and even write the story like most people would like it to work out.... it's just sad since i absolutely adored their friendship scenes in s2 and now this thing between them is just GONE. i don't get it. they used to be so close and now: NOTHING?! and fans like me have to read fanfics to at least keep them alive in their minds... i really like nathan and i adore brooke but i never felt that their was any connection between them. And it always seems like it's more okay to ship them than to ship neyton. i'm so thankful and glad that you commented.it's so great to talk about neyton with other people who share my love for them :)
Sorry for this late reply - last week was like hell for me, I've been busy with Uni! But I really wanted to reply, because I loved our ideas-sharing :D About Skins, I know what you mean. The very first time I watched the show, with S1, I was kind of 'shocked' because all this drugs and smoking and stuff was 'unexpected' to be seen in a tw show, at least for me - that's why now I am not shocked anymore, because I got used to seeing it. Plus, I kind of assumed that now Effy & co. are as 'grown up' as Tony & co. during S1 ;) I know this might influence younger people, I couldn't agree more with you, though. I think the show is rated in some countries!
I'm glad you share my point of view about NH - it is taken too seriously and it's some kind of 'cold war' when you just say that you like seeing Nathan with someone else, even just as friends - I remember being bashed when I was squee-ing during s4, when NP had a couple of friendship moments (4x03 and 4x13, I think) and I realized OTH fangirling has definitely gone too far ^^
And it always seems like it's more okay to ship them than to ship neyton I know, right! Inexplicable (like Effy says, heh)
