Well this was a more depressing Fantasy Luke sighting than I was anticipating! Although it was, OF COURSE, fabulous! And CLEARLY Gail invited him and OBVIOUSLY they both think that it's a giraffe BECAUSE THEY HANG OUT TOGETHER ALL THE TIME AND CLEARLY WE WILL NEVER BE OVER THIS. And nobody is ever going to be over the fact that Luke nearly died. ESPECIALLY NOT LUKE.

Also? I think that Luke is only in one episode again this season. WOEEEEEEE.

I knowwww. When I first devised this challenge I was totally imagining ALL TEH CRACK. And really, so far? NO CRACK! Well, not unless you count the promo graphic I made. And even that was only crack because, when it comes to graphics, I am capable of nothing else!

But yes, ahem, giraffes! Of course! And of course she invited him! OF COURSE!

And nobody is ever going to be over the fact that Luke nearly died. ESPECIALLY NOT LUKE. And THIS in particular. OMG.

I think that Luke is only in one episode again this season. WHAAAAA??? But I thought it was supposed to be four??!! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. IT WILL NOT STAND. WHO DO I SPEAK TO TO GET THIS RECTIFIED IMMEDIATELY?

Indeed. The graphics have been kind of cracky but I think that the problem is that we actually MISS Luke and therefore there is no crack to be had. It's all just wishful longing for a decent storyline for him!

I really loved the beginning of this fic by the way. It was so clear to me that they both just live in this place where that is the worst thing that has ever happened to either of them. It's surprisingly ignored in canon but wow did it screw them up bigtime.

I HOPE THAT I AM WRONG ABOUT THE ONE EPISODE

It's surprisingly ignored in canon but wow did it screw them up bigtime. I kinda disagree that the ignoring of this HUGE AND MOMUNEMTAL LIFE CHANGING EVENT is surprising because THIS HAPPENS TO ME ALWAYSSSS.

I always get stuck on things that just seem so incredibly OBVIOUS to me as far as potential storyline arcs go but then, the shows themselves seem to disagree with me completely.

IT IS THE BANE OF MY TELEVISION VIEWING EXISTENCE!!!

The one show that seemed to be doing a decent job of examining fall out in a way that I wanted was Political Animals and, BAM. Cancelled.

WOE.

Oh, and I HOPE YOU ARE WRONG TOOOOOOOO!! SO SO SO WRONG.

AND NOW I CRY!!!

So goooooood though! =)

I'm glad you liked it!!! You really need to add to this collection, bb!! You have been very gone lately which is unacceptable to me!

In other news; I'm up to 1x19 of Roswell! WOOT.

drzlilsuga July 2 2013, 09:01:49 UTC

OMG I JUST FINISHED ONE RIGHT NOW!!!!!

(I know I've been gone. My fickle muse has abandoned me.)

OMG HOW DO YOU LIKE IT SO FAR??!?!?!?!??!? (I SEE YOU HAVE A MARIA/LIZ ICON <333333333)

waltzmatildah July 2 2013, 09:14:36 UTC

I have SEVERAL icons!!! And I'm really enjoying it :)

Isabel is my favourite character. And Michael/Maria, my favourite pairing. I love the friendship between Liz and Maria too. And the deep connection between Michael/Isabel/Max.

Max himself drives me bananas. I really need to find him a new facial expression and a new tone of voice!! Just one more of each would be a vassst improvement! And Max/Liz BORES ME TO TEARSSSS. It is my Roswell version of season one/two Stefan/Elena.

My favourite part is listening to Isabel say the word, "Alex". MY HEART BREAKS EVERY TIME AND I CAN'T BELIEVE CATTEO DIDN'T WARN ME ABOUT THAT!!!

Oh.

Oh, good lord.

THIS GAVE ME AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF FEELINGS AND ROBBED ME OF MY ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE THEM.

Wow, am I ever glad that I didn't read this until after I posted my pos. This is just so perfectly, brutally truthy and wonderful and gut-wrenching.

I WILL NEED TO KNIT YOU MANY HATS AND SCARVES.

waltzmatildah July 22 2013, 11:01:38 UTC

This is just so perfectly, brutally truthy and wonderful and gut-wrenching.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING SO!

Fo serious.

I love the dynamic between these two and it's one of the things I miss most about the lack of Mr. Luke. Obviously the Gail/Luke is the other thing that I miss!!

Anyway, THANK YOU!! I'm glad you liked it!
