So...

[flwrpwr_vampyre]

NY is AWESOME. It's so busy and there's so much to look at and so many people! I'm glad I don't live there but it's definitely a fun place to visit. I got to see Ground Zero and the Statue of Liberty and take the Subway and shop in a Whole Foods. So I consider the trip to be a success of epic proportions.

I'm going to be posting a new fics soon and am actually forcing myself to write again. It might be a while before I finish a new fic but thankfully I do have a bunch saved up to post.


Am I the only slash fan that can enjoy canon het? I see other people's journals and rants and it just baffles me. My pairing isn't spoiled because one of the characters sleeps with or flirts with or has a relationship with a female in canon.

Also, I'm not trying to invite anyone to bitch at me because I don't see how it ruins their "one true pairing" or whatever you call your 'ship. /end rant.

*loves canon het*
It's not just you, don't worry.

*hugs close* Oh thank god!

[evil15smiles.livejournal.com]

LOL! I feel like the only one too. Solidarity, sister. :)

You can join me, flying_monkees and pyjamagurl.

It can be a very lonely thing to enjoy an ep and go online and realize everyone else went batshit about what you liked.

[evil15smiles.livejournal.com]

It really is... I ranted to frozenfoxfire about it for about an hour last night. Lets all be friends. :)

*giggles* How funny, today was pretty much me doing that to flying_monkees about Heroes and then tonight about Spn.

[evil15smiles.livejournal.com]

I've never watched SPN... some of the fans scare me. :/ Obviously not you guys, lol.

[flwrpwr-vampyre.livejournal.com]

Dude, the fans scare me too. That's why I stay the hell away from them. Well, except for the fic writers.

However the show is awesome. And kinda kicking Heroes ass this season.

[evil15smiles.livejournal.com]

*shrug* It takes a lot for me to get into a show, I'm to lazy to abandon Heroes and find something better.

[flwrpwr-vampyre.livejournal.com]

I haven't abandoned Heroes yet. I'll probably still with it until the bitter end but it's nice having a show that I feel truly excited about watching.

[evil15smiles.livejournal.com]

I still get that excited about Heroes! I may just be hopelessly devoted and easy to please, but I still hold weekly parties and invite everyone to come over and watch it with me.

[flwrpwr-vampyre.livejournal.com]

I meant to reply earlier and didn't. Sorry.

I have to admit that I'm extremely jealous of you. I want to love everything the way I used to. *hugs* It's good that there are people to love it still.

Although this makes me sound like I hate everything and I don't. I can't wait until Daphne is back, I really really love her and can't wait to see where she's going.

Well, personally, it's not the canon het that bothers me. It's the retconning, the plotholes, the OOCness (especially on Elle's part), and how contrived it all was. I wouldn't have had as much of a problem with it if had been Eden instead of Elle - because the personality of the girl that we saw in that episode resembled Eden's much, much more than it did Elle's - but that would have brought along its own set of plotholes as well. I'm just irritated that the writers seem to be doing everything in their power to make poor, woobie Gabriel completely blameless, and sacrificing the timelines and characterizations they'd previously established in order to do that.

[flwrpwr-vampyre.livejournal.com]

I actually agree with you there. It was weird seeing Elle as normal when I love the bitchy, crazy girl that she really is.

I still am excited about the possible spoilers I've seen though. When a show fails on so many levels you have to find something to love.

I... love... Nathan's hotness? nowhack and I were talking about it the other day, and we've decided that Nathan's hotness is something that we'll always be able to depend on. Well, unless he starts growing scales like Mohinder. D:

[evil15smiles.livejournal.com]

I completely agree with all of that. The last episode made my head hurt

[toestastegood.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think I'm with cookie_simone. It's not the canon het itself that bothers me, it's how they're doing it. But I've always said that Heroes sucks at writing romance in general - other than Nathan/Heidi, Niki/DL and Bennet/Sandra (the couples that were already established so they didn't have to 'work' at) I don't think they've ever had a romantic relationship on the show that I've bought into. :/
