Re: Danny/Lindsay #11- "Don't Bet Against the Country Girl!"
FLUFFY POWER!
LOL.
Remind anyone of "Puppy Power!" from Scooby-Doo?
It was supposed to. Haha.
Anywho, let me chime in a few cents here and there towards the general DL conversation. As a fluffy to the core, I have to say that a hug for me this season would suffice. And this is the reason why: One of the most intimate things people can do is hug each other. I do not want to see Danny and Lindsay (like Emily said) have the full on PDA when they get together. That seems OOC for them, don't you think? The subtle glances, banters, and their body language is the core of their relationship. To me, the idea of immediately having them all touchy-feely isn't being true to the characters or to their relationship. I think a comforting hug is more on their level. Something like (pardon me for endorsing my fanfiction, which is a story called "Chasing Hope" over at FF.net) this, is what I have in mind, as far as more of an angsty, yet sad approach. (The "I" is my OC Anna, in case you are confused).
She met my eyes for a moment, and then Danny took cautious steps forward before he decided what to do. He placed both of his hands on her shoulders and looked into her eyes without saying a word, before pulling her into him. Lindsay’s hands immediately wrapped around Danny, and she clung to the back of his T-shirt, body shaking with sobs. Lindsay’s head was buried in Danny’s shoulder as he kept his hands firmly on the back of her head. They stood there for minutes, inseparable, neither wanting to let go of the other for fear of losing them. I exhaled, realizing that I had been holding my breath the entire time.
Like, something where Danny is comforting Lindsay, or vice versa, just screams to me "love". Granted, yes, I am sure that if they kissed I would recognize that they loved each other, but there is this kind of spark that goes off in my mind for these two characters, and I really think that a good hug between the two of them could start the fire, so to speak. Haha.
On another note, let us strike up an interesting conversation, stemmed from these lines of "Supermen".
Danny: ...they called him "Super Man".
Lindsay: With good reason. Over 45 college-career touchdowns, over 3,000 career rushing yards, and he averaged 7.2 yards a carry.
Danny: Don't tell me you know a little something about football, please.
Lindsay: What? Is that so hard to believe?
Danny: No, it's just dangerous. *Lindsay looks up* I might ask you to marry me.
Apart from the fact that this scene is one of the best DL moments ever, I was curious as to what you all thought.
Danny jokes about marrying Lindsay, but say the two of them got into a relationship, stayed together, and ended up getting engaged down the line. The question of the day is:
How do you think Danny would propose?
Answer away, everyone! I am off to bed!
