Re: Calleigh & Ryan #7: "You’re fantastic" - CaRWash
oh, shiny new thread! lucky seven, huh? and just in time for the new season, too
i didn't vote for this one, but i still love the title! that scene is my second favorite ryan/calleigh scene ever. aahhhh, the shiny eyes...
sorry if i've been MIA, guys-- september's the month when baseball takes over my life. october too. and, for a more realistic excuse, AXN has decided (geniuses, they are
) that instead of airing season 4 of CSIM in their daily schedule, that they would start airing CSINY from the very beginning. so yeah, i'm going through a bit of a miami withdrawal. not good.
is everybody excited about the new season? it's like next week, right? i don't think i'll get it here until way later, like november perhaps (i haven't even seen the promo yet) but you can bet i'll be all over innertube as soon as it premieres in the states. ah, the internet... whatever would i do without it?
hmmm, i don't think i had told you about
my latest batch of graphics. there's a lot of ryan/calleigh in there, so check it out!
now, to address some of the questions that have popped up (both here and in the last few pages of the previous thread):
nikki asked: what do you guys think ryan would say about jake? would he lay low? step up? like him, hate him?
i don't think he would
do anything per se, but i'm sure he wouldn't trust jake as far as he can throw him. and i think he'll have an opinion, and make it known-- if not to calleigh, or jake himself, then to
someone. he's had an opinion about her previous boyfriends, after all. it'd be unrealistic to have him completely detached from the situation now.
hestia asked: these two have argued more often than any other miami "pairing" (but could it truly be because she cares?)
well, yeah, it's because she cares, but... not quite. on the one hand, i think ryan's just been put down for too long. i mean, it's been three seasons and at times it still feels like they treat him as "the newbie." even natalia hasn't gotten that treatment, not for as long as he did. so he's been getting very defensive and in his eagerness to do his job and prove himself, he tends to mess up. what's worse, he doesn't really accept he's messed up until it's been thrown in his face (by calleigh, of course).
cal, on the other hand... you know, i don't think she ever really saw him as a newbie. she was expecting to, i'm sure, in "under the influence," but he proved her wrong. he solved the case like a pro, even if it was just his first day. and she started to give him a lecture in "legal" but he proved that wasn't a newbie blunder, but rather a different way of doing things, following his instincts. she's been thinking of him as an equal since season 3, which is more than i can say about eric, and horatio with his "mr. wolfe." what happens then, when he makes these stupid mistakes-- she feels disappointed. she knows he's better than that, she's seen how good he can be and it makes her angry to see him acting this way. that's where the arguments come about.
so yeah,
in "death pool 100" she was really pissed, but in "recoil" and "kill switch,"
you could see that it was mostly disappointment. i think it can only strengthen their friendship, really, if they understand each other's motives.
and then nikki, again: are there gonna be any significant CaRWash moments this season, in your opinion?
uh, no idea. but there better be :devil: wow, cheers for the most useless answer ever
no, seriously, i'm with
katie on this one-- while we all love the little flirty moments, i want to see more deep stuff this time 'round... like,
"driven"-deep.
dani- i love the animation! so cute.
london- am reading the fic right now, will review.
well, that's about all i can think to say, i'll be back soon, if the play-offs let me
i'm hoping i'll be around for the season premiere. here's to many more ryan/calleigh moments, everyone!
And by all means you can play with whatever smilies you'd like. It's fun to see new smilies and this pair deserves all the heart smilies there are.
