Ship Manifesto:

Adelle Dewitt and Laurence Dominic.

When I signed up for the Dewitt/Dominic Celebration Week, I was unsure about what I wanted to write. I eventually decided to compose a Shipper’s Manifesto of Adelle Dewitt and Laurence Dominic’s relationship (in a similar format to those at http://community.livejournal.com/ship_manifesto) whereby

We've all html coding problems and this is worth the wait! Lots of thinky thoughts.

, having an entire agency helping to protect the tech would have really helped. Way to miss the big picture Echo). This never occured to me but yes, you're right!

Haunted as a coda to SITHOL with all that subtext; I think I need to watch this episode again now you've pointed this out.

Oh, Shooting Script, why were you altered? Adelle's cold sounding "I'd rather you didn't" could have been a lot nicer. Then again the whole second half of season 2 seemed to veer between Good Adelle and Bad Adelle with it never being clear exactly whose side she was on anymore...

Great job :D

Thank you so much for the reply.

Haunted was never my favourite episode when it first aired (after SitHoL I was expecting massive plot develeopment) but when I happpened to watch the two back-to-back and I saw how well they connected, I liked Haunted so much more.

I was so sad when I learned that they changed the shooting script (so many good things in it).

What to say that hasn't been said? I'm not sure there is anything but this much work deserves to be commented upon

Thanks so much for reading.

You're totally right. Compared to most couples on Dollhouse (or even tv as a whole), D/D are surprisingly lacking in the canon (at least overtly) but subtext is so much more fun (and you can do so much more with at as you are not confined to canon). Again, I completely agree, I don't know if would have been as invested in D/D if it hadn't been for Olivia Williams and Reed Dominic. They really did so much with the characters.

I enjoyed reading this. I really have nothing else to say, except that:

Thank you so much for reading!

Dominic really is too BAMF for him to be wiped or dead. The man out-specialed Echo. I mean, she has all these crazy skills that she has been given by the Dollhouse while Dominic is just naturally that awesome.

[derevko_child]

The "ordinary"/"un-gifted" characters in Dollhouse are actually the badass ones. They have natural skillz, y'all

[darling_ashes]

Exactly! I loved Echo and everything but I was much more capitvated by the others who were naturally badass.

Thanks so much!
