dark angel oh my GOD

Y'all, I have burned through both seasons in...basically...four and a half days. Give or take a few hours. BOTH SEASONS.



I am ridiculously in love with Alec, and Original Cindy, and Joshua. Hell, with all of them. I love that Normal delivered Gem's baby! That Alec comforted Max (that half-sideways-hug and kiss to her head) after she told him about having to kill Ben. Logan's unwavering love and support -- for ALL of them, not just Max. The way Max and Alec just piled on Joshua for comfort and support, after Annie was killed. I love that Ames White is an unwavering bastard (and just WHOSE side is he on, anyway? Jesus). Sketchy, man, I'm glad he came around.

So many questions floating around in my brain, now. Not the least of which is: why weren't twins in the same 'family'? Max considered Ben her brother...but not Alec? How come? If Alec and Ben were twins, shouldn't they be? Max called the not!Max (Sam? I think?) her 'little sister', so...huh. Something to do with 'your unit is your family', maybe?

Also, The Berrisford Agenda nearly killed me. Just sayin'.

I really wish there was a third season. I kind of get the feeling there was supposed to be, and man, there's so much they could have done with it. I liked seeing the characters slowly being fleshed out, made more 3-D (I want to know what Joshua's flashback was, just before he attacked White and nearly beat him to death. It was so quick, I couldn't tell. Must rewatch.)

I'm kind of torn between shipping Max and Alec, and Alec and Logan. *shakes head* Another het pairing. I'm not going to lose my slash cred am I? I've read one Alec/Joshua story that was good, and done well, but I think I would be veeeeeeeeeeery picky about who I would read that from. Ditto for Alec/Ames, now, having actually watched the show and seen it. I just...I like the idea of the pairing, but I'm not sure it could work. There's too much hatred. Though, Mulder/Krycek and Krycek/Skinner fans certainly showed how hatred could work *g* Or be worked around. Hmm. Still pretty enamored with Alec/Sam, too (or Alec/Sam/Dean, and GUH, how hot a picture is that?). Even have a few ideas vaguely bouncing around in my head.

Because, y'know, that's what I need more of. Story ideas. *headdesk*

God, I feel like a junkie coming down off a week-long binge. I NEED ANOTHER HIT. And there isn't any more!

I've been sore about the cancellation of this show since 2002, and the rage NEVER DIES.

veronamay and I mainlined both seasons over one weekend. By the end of it we were speaking in tongues. *g*

I have to admit, while I do read Max/Alec I can't bring myself to actually ship them - their relationship on the show always struck me as more sibling-like. Big sister and little brother. Then again, I find it difficult to ship Alec with anybody. ;)

Have I recced you minkmix's DA stuff yet? I keep meaning to. She writes fantastic Alec and Cindy friendship fics.

That's who I was thinking of! Those Alec and Cindy fics are AWESOME.

I may or may not have a plan for a ginormous SPN/DA crossover, involving some seriously damaged boys and some Alec/Dean as well as Sam/Alec. Naturally, because it's me, it would be an angst-fest, and would likely get done sometime after the second coming.

I almost wrote an Alec/Sam (at Stanford) fic once…

It took me 6 days to watch both seasons the first time (because I had school, and homework. *mutters*) and then I promptly went through withdrawal. And then began to rewatch them immediately. And went through withdrawal again. *sigh*

I must admit, I read Max/Alec fics quite often… But they're usually set after the series ended.

And Berrisford Agenda broke me dead when I saw it. And I still just want to hug Alec every time I see it.

And I like pheebs1's DA/SPN crossover where Alec turns out to be Dean's clone.

And I should really go sleep before I start reading even more fics.

*facepalm*

I was GUTTED when I realized that there was to be no more. I mean, I knew it going in, but still. It's so obvious they weren't told there was not to be a season three until the last minute. *weeps*

I rented S1 through the post and watched it in 5 days (as quick as I could get the DVDs here, and then I watched S2 in a single sitting. I've got to see it again, really. thank goodness I bought it.

Alec. ALEC! so much love. I ship Alec/everyone. littledrop has done Alec/Normal that I love :D But Alec/Logan is the sexiest. (well, after Cindy/ME *wants*)

The only Alec/Ames I've read is Lyn's and it was amazing, but I'm not sure how else I could see that pairing.

There is a reason I actually own season 2 on DVD. (And that reason is named Jensen Ackles.)

PLEASEPLEASE do not go for Max/Alec! There is too much of it already because I just cannot see that relationship and I want more people who can write to write Alec slash! (Alec/Logan! Alec/Sam/Dean!)

Also, I think the reason it feels unfinished is that they literally thought up until, like, the day before announcements that they were getting season 3. EVERYONE, including all of the trades. Which makes you wonder why they cancelled it. Weirdos.

Last, I happen to have just finished reading the first companion novel (which picks up after Freak Nation.) I suppose I could mail it to you? :)

I remember reading somewhere that had there been a third season, the network was pushing for Alec and Max to become a couple.

I don't think I've seen the last two episodes of season two. I've never seen the first season...well other than the Ben episode that I downloaded. I have INSANE love for Alec. I almost like him more than Dean...eep, don't tell anyone!

LOL. I did the same thing last week...all eps in 4 days. I have no idea how I taught and the boys made it to soccer :)

I haven't been that head over heels in about as long as I can remember...with fandoms, yes. With a show where I have to obsessively rewatch and am delving into the depths of ffnet? Not so much so...

And i'm glad i'm shipping het here, because there's so little readable fic...if I were limiting myself further, I'd really have to cry...

I'm so excited to see you writing...bc you know how much I love your fic!!!!
