I liked this a lot - it reminded me of Anne of Green Gables when she was pretending to the Lady of Shalot and the boat sank underneath her!

Hugs, Sue

Thanks Sue. Yes! The Anne of Green Gables scene was a big influence in this - I loved that part! And Gilbert looked so dreamy when he picked he up on his boat :)

Great idea, slashing Tom/Huck! That was absolutely sacrilicious! I used to love that show... now I know why! Thanks so much for writing!

Heheh! Thanks Donna! You know, I used to watch Tom/Huck in complete innocence. It was only when I watched the TV intro recently with my Jack/Ennis hat on that I saw the possibilities. Hum. I think I have been corrupted...

This was charming. I liked the little canon references, the shirt and the fishing. Also someone being pushed up against a tree is always appreciated, LOL.

The song was very cute, and it was a clever concept. Thanks for participating in the challenge.

Thanks LG! I was actually worried that this wouldn't 'qualify' for this challenge, as a TV intro isn't really a song is it? But I figured that I'd post it anyway and see if anyone noticed!!!
