BWAHA.
Vanessa: You know, in the next "Pirates" movie, they should have more Norrington, because I know you'd love that, and he should get kidnapped by pirates, and they can make him be a pirate...
Me: ...yeah. Yeah.
(trying not to die)
Ness: And Will's gone to law school and he's a lawyer and he goes off to rescue Norrington with Jack while Elizabeth has a baby.
Tim: Maybe Barbossa can come back from the dead.
Ness: Cheesy.
Tim: Sequels tend to be.
Ness: Maybe...Barbossa's twin brother...
Tim: I wouldn't support that.
Ness: Well, it's a thought.
Tim: I think something should happen to Jack. Maybe he and Will are like...pirate buddies.
Ness: I want to know about Mr. Gibbs. How did he turn pirate? That is my burning question. He's all anti-pirate in the beginning, and then boom, he's a pirate. What's up with that?
Tim: Bootstrap could still be alive, if he got up from the bottom of the sea. And Will could search for his father. Could be cheesy, though.
Ness: Don't care.
Tim: There's definitely got to be a new villain though. Don't know what they're going to do with that. Have you seen the internet sites with all the fan speculation about the sequel?
(me choking)
Ness: We should write the sequel. They could have a contest and people could vote.
Tim: But the person who won would have to get a cut.
Ness: No, the prize would be...meeting Johnny Depp.
Tim: I still don't like that idea, fans writing the thing. There's some crazy ideas out there -- lot about Bootstrap, and the monkey.
(me thinking oh god oh god don't mention slash i'm such a bad liar don't do it don't bring it up)
Can you see how I stopped participating in the conversation because I was too busy transcribing and internally cracking up?
Oh good, we're on to HP and JKR now. Thank. GOODNESS.

Oh, I see that your Vanessa-roommate, also, rocks. This is hilarious, and I would've been in the same boat. Actually, Thursday night I dropped my (totally not a slasher) friend C. off after we'd spent dinner talking about my appreciation for Orlando that she insists on calling an obsession, and made plans to see Hidalgo the next day. She told me good night, and wished me sweet dreams about Orlando. "And Viggo!" I interjected, and she turned and looked at me, and I thought, uh. Uh oh. Shit! She just arched an eyebrow, and said, "Both? You're dirty." Can't argue with that :)
Also: Maybe he and Will are like...pirate buddies.
The word, dear Tim, is matelots. FYI.

Heeeee. The inner slashfan shines through all attempts to hide her.
Ness caught me reading fic once -- thank HEAVENS it was a gen Norrington piece and not, say, HOMOEROTIC SMUT -- and went "Are you reading fan fiction?" in this way that you could tell she was testing out the term. And I, smooth operator that I am, got carpal tunnel syndrome trying to close the window and babbled, "Yeah, but I don't like it, it's poorly written, I'm not reading the rest."
Pirate buddies ::shakes head:: I was trying to be all sneaky-typing while they were talking, but that's the point where I almost lost it. It's bad enough watching the movie with Ness over and over without squeeing during all the Sparrington scenes "They are so going to DO it!" But PIRATE BUDDIES...::dies::

I've never been caught reading fic... YET. *knocks wood* It's only a matter of time, especially if I keep reading it while at work!

Oh please, as if shame is something to be proud of!

Ok, she can stay. (sadly pulls in plank) BUT only if you promise to write this story . . . You can do two versions. One for her. And one for us. :-) I will pray for you >:-)
