The thing to me was suits. Damien's in particular. I had to rewind and watch the scene with him and Hanna with the kid kayaker when Damien had no jacket, no tie and his shirt sleeves were rolled up and I'm what the hell is going on. Went back and appreciated ... several times. Love forearms. Will step down now.

*SOBS* I MISS YOU GUYS.

Hello! I am dealing *badly* with the season having ended, because all other television has paled in comparison with Franklin and Bash and I'm not even joking and I don't know why that happened to me.

I'm dealing with it by watching everything else Breckin and MPG have ever been in, which is great because you get to look at Breckin Meyer some more, but also slightly soul destroying because he was nearly entirely just WASTED until they made him Jared. I'm so grateful they made him Jared.

My thoughts on the Peter/Janie thing is basically that I like it if it stays dead. I know it's a bit cliché slash fan of me, but I love that Jared won, I love that he has custody of Peter, I never want that to change. I really really like the female characters in Franklin and Bash but I still don't believe they have the ability to write either of them into a relationship without making it rubbish and awful. I love how often the actors say they hope that doesn't happen too.

I love that Peter actually gets along really well with Janie's fiance! It's often such a cliche, when we're meant to root for the ex, to bring in the new guy and have him be an asshole so the audience hates him. I LOVE that van der Beek's character is a genuinely nice guy and he and Peter actually become friends. I thought they were great together, and the fiance was entertaining even by himself without Peter. That's one of the main reasons I'm not into Peter/Janie (aside from the obvious Peter should be with Jared reason)--there's no way to do it without either hurting her fiance and I like him much too much for that, or turning him into a bad guy which would be a shitty rom-com move that's been done a million times. I'd love to see more of Peter and van der Beek hanging out! And Jared along for the ride, half-exasperated but half-charmed. Idk if VDB is someone they can get back as a recurring guest star, but I think it would be fun.

Hi, my name's Vic and I'm a Frankin-and-Bash-aholic... [waves]

I watched Season 1 on the British schedule so only saw the last episode a few weeks ago. It's safe to say that I'm not handling the withdrawal well - I now own 25 films with Breckin Meyer in and YouTube is thinking of taking out a restraining order on me! I might have been a bit slow off the mark because it took me about 4 episodes to realise that I was watching a love story of epic proportions and not just a legal comedy, but after that I could not stop seeing it!

My favourite thing about this fandom is some of the kinks / tropes / whatever you want to call them, that are just accepted as fanon. Like:

Peter and Jared being comfortable sharing a bed - This will never get old. Ever.
Jared wearing Peter's clothes - I love how it accentuates the tinyness.
Being so comfortable with physical contact - Hugs, touches, whatever, they're there for each other.
They can make out without any angst - And may they never stop!
Being so protective of each other - A 'no-one insults my best friend except me' kinda deal.
Unicorns - Just... too awesome for words!

So I have a confession...Peter/Jared is not my Franklin and Bash OTP. haha. No, I love their dynamic and I do ship them, but I actually prefer Damien/Jared. (What's really weird is the fic I have the most written for is Peter/Jared. Go figure.)

Does anyone else want Infeld to be Jared's dad like Peter suggested in episode 4? Because that really intrigues me. I want to know how he and Jared's dad know each other.

OH MY GOODNESS.

I'm so sorry I haven't been around lately. My school's been doing all this spirit crap that ends up in us getting in trouble either way and, as proven tonight, multiple ambulances.

I've had this lovely post on my mind and I intend to spam the h-e-c-letter after j out of it. For funsies ;D

If y'all are still around, how's it going?

The past few days have been pretty damn strange for me. I ended up spending my Wednesday evening in a basement with 4 guys playing Scrabble. Yeah. One of them being my best friend's boyfriend (who I treat as a brother actually and continually poke fun at like one)

Then the next day 2 other guys and I used some Co2 cartridges to try and launch lego people. It didn't work at all.

And today was my school's pep rally and homecoming game and I was just reminded how much I despise large crowds...

So uhm... yeah! :D

And you guys? (Now I'mma do a F&B related post!)

[blissfulmuseum.livejournal.com]

First off, I MISS MY WEEKLY DOSE OF F&B. I'm not gonna lie, the first few episodes didn't appeal to me much, but as I continued to watch and study the characters, they really grew on me. Now I love all the episodes :D

I enjoy the strong female characters that can also be sexy, but I really really really hope that Peter and Janie don't get back together. I feel like it'd ruin the whole bromance thing. ...Unless maybe they did it for a few episodes and show jealous!Jared? ...Hmm. Not too sure on that yet.

I also enjoy Damien recently too. /Not because Reed Diamond @ replied me on twitter or anything.

But, overall, Jared and Peter will forever be my main bros on the show. (DAT ASS! DOSE VESTS!)

I'm mucho excited for the premier of season 2 and can't wait to see what they have coming up!

I have watched 'Suits'. I checked it out because everyone was saying it's so amazing, but honestly I like F&B a whole lot better! Suits is alright, but F&B is so, so, so much better.
