Something like two...or more (goes to check) Okay, three months ago, Indy did this personal canon meme. Thing. 20 pieces of personal canon for your fandom. I thought it was a nifty idea, and started one myself, but I only got six and then put it away, and I'm never going to finish, so here's my six pieces of personal canon that I could think of at the time.

I'll reiterate what Indy said in that these are not things I'd like to see in stories, just assumptions I make while writing.


—Greg may have slept with most of the cast, but it was never about the sex.

—Out of everyone on the show, Colin is the strongest, both physically and emotionally. Emotionally, out of the threesome, Greg comes next and Ryan last, though he hides it well.

—It took Chip until Green Screen to become comfortable with his sexuality and at least two more years for him to realize he had feelings for Jeff. Jeff sees it all as just a fling, and he ignores the fact that he couldn't let Chip go if he tried.

—Colin fell in love with Ryan the night they met. Ryan fell in love with Colin somewhere along the way, but it wasn't until Colin got married that he realized it.

—Greg fell in love with Ryan in New York. Ryan was on his way to falling in love with Greg at that point, but he was still (unconsciously) waiting for Colin, and it would take him over a decade to admit to himself to having those feelings.

—Clive thinks of the cast as his children, and he would do anything to protect them. It broke his heart to be taken away from them.


Mmm, pointless entry.

In other fandomy news, I'm sort of writing again. I like writing for people.

Oh! And I bought pretty decals and put them on my finger nails. ^___^ Yeah, I'm a dork. I love having long nails, but I don't like nail polish, but I wanted to make them pretty, so they've got these little white flowers on them. Pretty and subtle. I like muchly.

I should get back to writing.

I wish I had a Whose Line icon of people holding hands and skipping.

Awwww boys *loves them* That's so angsty but I can see it. Especially Colin being the strongest.

Glad you're writing!

[clayangel.livejournal.com]

Me too. ^_^

You've no idea how much love I have for this.

You have to see them together. That there's something between them is kind of undeniable.

I liked this entry a lot. I miss the good old days of the fandom, you know, when you wrote a lot :)

(do you want to write something for me? i'd be the happiest woman ever)

[clayangel.livejournal.com]

I would, but I have my summer assignment and a couple other things that I'd said I'd do first. But yeah, I'll totally write something for you if you just give me a little time. What would you want?

And how are you doing, by the way? I saw the letter.

[saltyj.livejournal.com]

I'm doing better now, thanks. Just going to give the parents a little time to calm down.

I'd adore a Colin/Brad angstfic from you. :)

[clayangel.livejournal.com]

Well, one of the things I'm writing is actually kind of a Colin/Brad angstfic....though that's not the end pairing.

Whoot whoot for number 2!!!! *bows*

[clayangel.livejournal.com]

Well, I believe it. ^_^

[makingamochrie.livejournal.com]

No, really? :P

Oh, that was a great meme to do :)

In my personal canon, number two would be nuanced. I agree Colin is the strongest, but he is so because his feelings are less dual than Ryan and Greg's. I feel almost as if Colin loves at another level than they do, is less emotionally diversified but that gives him more (superficial perhaps) intensity. He doesn't love them both in exactly the same way, but he is able to summon equal amounts of tenderness and passion for both of them. In Greg and Ryan's case that's not so, and what they do give is therefore also deeper. ...Am I making sense at all?

[clayangel.livejournal.com]

I think I get it. It's almost that Colin is more level headed about the whole thing. He doesn't throw himself into love or lust the way the other two do.
