Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do They??

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

I was never much of a shipper either, and I'm still not--yeah, I'll talk about various pairings, and I might read and/or write some fanfic for them, but in the end I'm basically all about D/F. :lol:

The idea of slash was sort of strange to me before, not because I was against it or anything, it just didn't occur to me to think about it since I'm a straight woman and why would I think about two guys being together? My first exposure to what slash is was in my brief turn in the Harry Potter fandom. I was reading a fanfic, thought 'slash' must mean it had blood and gore or something, so I clicked the link and read it. It was just a kiss in that story, but it kind of made me sit up like 'huh?' After that I looked up 'slash' and found what it meant. And while I guess I'm a bit of a Sirius/Remus shipper for HP, it wasn't something I really gave a lot of thought to. But when I found out about D/F slash here on Talk, I was a bit familiar with the idea and decided to explore it some more--and here I am.

Honestly, I don't know that I saw anything shippy between Danny and Flack before coming on Talk--but I didn't see anything shippy between any of the characters, since pairing up people was never something I gave a rat's ass about. :lol: I think, for me, starting to dig beyond the surface of what the writers put into an episode to delve into the person beneath what little we see of the characters, is what made me interested in shipping. Before, I just watched the show and was happy with what the writers put there and didn't expect more or think about what could happen--not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. But once I started to think of these characters in terms of them being real people, then I started to wonder about their personal lives, and I was opened up to the possibilities for shipping. Not sure what drew me to D/F, but of all the pairings I've seen it's the one that really got me. There's subtext there, and subtle clues that there can be more to their relationship than what we see, but it's not too overt, it's not screaming at you. And the idea of a relationship developing slowly, almost before you know what's happening, is intriguing to me.

When I re-watched older episodes, the D/F stuff really sort of smacked me in the face. "BST" is perfect for showing the comfortable friendship between them, and also for showcasing the subtext that D/F fans love.

I'm several chapters into my D/F Christmas fic, which includes Don's family again, and I'll hopefully have some of it posted soon. It's longer than I should have committed to, especially since I waited so late to start on it, but I'm hoping to have it all posted by Christmas Day. :lol:

After I finish that one, I have several ideas for other fics, one of which is pretty serious and not in the usual established-relationship thing I usually follow.

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

I've been a "slash" shipper since way before I discovered CSI:NY.

And guys?

I feel kind of dumb asking this, but how did the whole kinka-poodle thing start? Was it that episode with Kid Rock, and the kin-whatever-ya-call-it? The animal thing? 'cos.. I have no idea.

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

Yeah, Danny called the kinkajou a 'kinkapoodle' in "All Access" and we just grabbed onto it for some reason. :lol: I'm not sure who suggested it first in here, but we went with it.

By the way, chapters 1-5 of the Christmas story are up, and I've finished 6 and most of 7, which should be up soon. I really want to finish this asap.

Happy Holidays, everyone!

Edit: Chapters 6 and 7 are up.

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

Yes, it is nicely intimate I think. Although, I'm more expecting them just to turn to each other and gaze into each others eyes for a while, then maybe look away blushing...OK then, maybe a little kiss. They do look comfortable together though, like friends who have know each other forever.

The D/F fanfic does tend to be quite good (the ones I have read anyway) I find slash fanfic just seems to read better to me somehow in general anyway. Without the fanfic I think I would struggle to find that many true shippy moments, it helps me to better visualise them as a couple.

Agreeing with Fay too, I don't really see anything shippy between any characters, so it must just be all our over active imaginations. :lol: Who cares, I don't think you can get a much more attractive couple than Danny/Flack, they do look good together, maybe even a little cute...

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

You know, I really want to go back and read the earlier D/F threads from before I joined the party. I know I saved the links to them. There's probably some fun stuff in those.

Exactly. I love it when two people are just completely at ease around each other, and the idea that the ease and comfort would translate into something a bit more...lovely.

I've definitely found some great writers for this pairing, and they do good stuff. I also agree with what you say about the slash 'reading better' for you--I like some het pairings, but when it comes to reading fic I just prefer slash. I couldn't begin to tell you why, though. :lol:

Really? That's interesting. Before I became a shipper, it was hard to see moments between them, but now I'm more in tune with it on the show and whatnot.

:lol: Yeah, we certainly have active imaginations, don't we? :lol: I like when things are more ambiguous on a show, it lends itself easily to more open interpretation.

And yes, you can't get much hotter, if we're being totally superficial here (and let's face it, we all do from time to time ), than these two hotties. :devil:

*sigh* Back to finishing chapter 9. My muse is just being rebellious...

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

I have to admit that I saw it in the show too. I was like "wow, look at Flack. Doesn't he seem to be looking at Danny a lot?". I have friends, good friends and I've never looked at them like that. Why would you unless you had a thing for them?

The infamous screencap from Trapped. Yep, Donnie boy was very upset at the mention of 13 hours. It was from Danny's POV through the monitor but he definately saw Flack.


Flack has seemed to perfected the art of staring at Danny. I'm still trying to figure out how he didn't tumble down the stairs in Stealing Home. He looked at Danny all the way down the stairs, never once looking down at them. I couldn't have done that. I'd want to stare at Danny that much but it would either be "stare at Danny and break your neck" or "look away from Danny just until you get down the stairs".

**Damn coffee. Glad I keep extra clothes in my locker**


Walking in locker room. "Dan, why do you do this to me at work?"


Has anybody else noticed that BOTH of them seem to be staring at each other more this season? I've got plenty of screencaps to prove that.

OK, could this be any more obvious? Even in real time, it was obvious what Flack was looking at. I was thinking "Flack just checked out Danny's ass!"

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

They are staring at each other more this season because the relationship is growing stronger. I think that after Danny went into the bar alone in Raising Shane that Don was worried sick about him. I bet Danny got one heck of a lecture about putting his life in danger like that after he got out of the bar. Don can't stand to have his little k'poo in trouble.

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

Okay, I honestly never noticed the Flack putting his head in his hand thing in Trapped until you guys mentioned it. That is very telling. I wonder if it was written in the script, or if Eddie added that move in himself.

Oh, babe, is it growing stronger. Perhaps this season finale, we D/F shippers will be given something very interesting to remember. Hey, I can be optimistic!

And thanks for posting all the great screencaps, guys! They've inspired me to do some manips of the boys. It's too bad only some of the lot can be used. Most are already awesomely shippy as they are.

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

Oh, I hope so!!! Those two are so downright hot, so together, wow! hehe, I love the whole 'Kinkapoodle, Jackhammer' thing. I was watching NY last night and kept laughing, or pointing out things, and I was getting very strange looks from Mum, who then told me to keep my smut mind upstairs, and on the forums! :lol: So I said fine, and started writing smutty fanfic drabbles adn then lauging at that instead!

Oh and Hi BTW!!! *waves* I've found a new home for all my smutty D/f-ness!

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

Ah, Kimmy[ if only we could get such a glorious gift for a season finale. Danny and Flack, out shooting hoops or whatever. Stop for a slice at Ray's and a couple of beers. Head back to one of their apartments and, because they've had a few beers, lose their inhibitions and start going at it.

Methinks I have been reading too much fanfic!

How do you all think the boys rang in the new year? Together or pining for each other?

 

Re: Danny/Flack #5 - Kinka-Poodles Don't Cuddle....Or Do The

**raises hand** That would be me back on page 1. I forgot all about it until you mentioned it. I need to check..Danny's ass is probably further ahead by now. :lol:

You know, I have often wondered about that too and all the other Danny/Flack moments.

Joanne, I think they rang in the new year together. Happy and content. Just the two of them, in their own apartment, drinking beer, eating pizza, and watching Dick Clark on TV. Then, of course, they miss the actual "new year" at midnight because they have already moved on to other forms of entertainment. Jham can't stay away from his kpoo for too long.

Ok...here they come. I hope they haven't already been posted on here, I get the posts on here and BC mixed up all the time.

These are from Sweet 16:
