There's a few more days to go bid at waltzmatildah's Queensland Flood Auction. ( my thread)

What a can, what a can...

Well, empressearwig probably has a lot to do with it. I first started getting super obsessed with Taylor probably in summer 2009 (the song That's The Way I Loved You was probably my tipping point, for whatever reason). And at the time, before anything was really official, I was shipping Taylor with Tay Lautner. *shrug* And while they're both very pretty, I started to realize that they really looked like brother/sister-pally types. Plus their age difference- 2 years isn't so much at 29 and 27, but at 19 and 17 it seems like a whole heckuva lot.

So, then, for no reason whatsoever, I decided I wanted to ship her with Dierks Bentley, and I wanted them to do a duet together. I think they were both on tour with Kenny Chesney at one point or something, and then I realized...he's married. So no. I would still like for them to do a duet though.

THEN! empressearwig pointed me at her twitter, and that she and John would be recording together for his new album, and like, her whole page was them going back and forth at each other (tweet- ( ... )

If you could re-write/write the endings for two shows or episodes of any TV show that you like, what would they be and what would you write?

Well, VM definitely needed some closure, whatever it may be, but I never quite knew how I wanted it to end up.

I also wish Moonlight had gotten more of an ending, ditto Kitchen Confidential. And basically, I'd just want MORE.

hope27 January 19 2011, 23:15:10 UTC

Ah, yes, VM...I would love some closure on that one as well.

In the wake of the ridiculous GH news, what Elizabeth centric story do you wish we'd told in the TNG-verse?

leobrat January 19 2011, 23:10:17 UTC

The story of Spencer and Audrey being kidnapped by Helena, and the messy, complicated, fiercely loving relationship she has with all of her kids and her husband. But the kidnapping one I think would have been a crazy wonderful 'sweeps' event for us ;)

Give me your dream GH.

If you were writing sweeps right now, no-holds barred, you could do whatever the hell you wanted and weren't bound by a DAMN thing Guza has done since (insert your canon stopping point of choice)-- what stories would you tell?

leobrat January 20 2011, 02:03:06 UTC

Oh God. We'd have to backtrack and eat shit for like over a decade, probably.

Let me concentrate on one. Let me concentrate on your icon.

No....Wait...Let me concentrate on my icon.

Okay, I just went and watched a bunch of clips so I could think more carefully on this. First of all (which I did not know until now) Maya believed that Ethan beat Kristina. And that's supposed to be a viable pairing?

Maybe I'm being a little hypocritical?Okay. So this would probably have to be in a while (because we haven't been given anything to work with in months), but when Kristina is in college, as a pre-law major, something happens to Johnny and Ethan, they are arrested and she knows that they are innocent. (And Sonny is actually guilty of it, but he set them up- a murder or a blown-up warehouse, or something...you know, the GH staples.) And she works to help them clear their name, all the while, Sonny is acting like his stupid, crazy, short self, and Johnny is noticing how much Ethan is trying to push Kristina away- doesn't want her ( ... )

duchessofavalon January 20 2011, 02:16:25 UTC

That never made sense to me-- if she believed that, and I am not certain we ever found out that she knew/believed otherwise, how is it real to her character for her to be in a relationship with him?

But anyway point is I really would love this story. Especially if it ends with Ethan and Kristina. And Sonny getting his.

leobrat January 20 2011, 02:20:29 UTC

I am not certain we ever found out that she knew/believed otherwise

We did, I just watched the clip where she's all, "How can you stand there and act all innocent RARRRRR"

What is your happily ever after for the FNL gang?

leobrat January 22 2011, 01:02:21 UTC

Ooh!

Well...I would like for Eric and Tami to ultimately decide that small town living is the life for them and their family. I feel like we're kind of supposed to be rooting for them to get out and that makes me sad.

I would like to see Julie and Matt work things out after they both grow up a little. I can see them living in Brooklyn, somehow, someway.

I see Gracie going the total opposite way of Julie though, and growing up as kind of the belle of Dillon- cheerleader, homecoming queen, the whole works.

I read a fic once of Tyra living in Vegas and working as a hotel manager, and she was so awesome in it, that I feel like that's the life for her. When she comes home to visit her mom and Mindy and the kids, she usually spends a night with Tim.

Vince ends up at A&M (with Smash) and they have a sort of mentor relationship.

Luke takes over his dad's ranch and is in love with Becky until the end of time. (<-----Yeah, I'm kind of OTP-ing them hard this season ( ... )
