I want a canon-based epic that covers their whole story and it should have a happy end.
From before they met (like David checking his new co-star on the internet and/or renting DVDs), to their first impression of each other. They get along fine until one day they realize it's attraction. They fight it, but it's there and it becomes harder to deny it.
Eventually they give in for whatever reason and then begins a time where they try to deny themselves, break it off, but seek each other out again and again. They love their wives and families and don't want to hurt anyone, but at the same time this thing between them is like a force of nature. They can't stop it, even as their "normal" lives go on. I'd like to see their reactions to Katherine's and Jane's pregnancy, David's engagement and then wedding.
They reach a status quo, where they just stop fighting and accept that they'll live like this, always hiding, lying, stealing moments with each other, until one day one of them realizes it doesn't have to be (and can't be) that way forever and takes a leap of faith and leaves their wife (I don't care who it is, although I think I would prefer Joe), without telling the other.
And then I want them to really get together (after the other gets divorced, too) and be happy. It doesn't have to be all fluffy bunnies and sunshine and roses (in fact in shouldn't be). I'd love Jane and/or Katherine being mad and have (some of) the kids resenting the new man in the life of their dad.
But eventually I'd like it to settle down into acceptance into the new way things are (and I'd love it if their relationship to their ex-wives becomes at least civilized at some point) and Joe and David are happy and most of all know that this was the right decision.
Note: I should also say, no wife-bashing, please. There is a reason that they married them, and that reason has to be that they're awesome. So I'm always working under the assumption that while they love their wives, in each other they have simply found something different that ultimately is the one thing that they want as the relationship in their lives.
Well, that's my wish. If you want to write this (which I know, chances are one in six billion) and would like more input, please let me know. I'll be happy to discuss it.
