1. Flack has a sealed juvenile record.
2. Danny's degree is in chemistry, with a minor in art history.
3. Danny's family is into the Italian Mob to a much larger degree than he's ever told anyone or let himself think about. He won't call on his family for anything if he can help it.
4. Pirates of the Caribbean and Supernatural take place in the same universe.
5. Lindsay was a rodeo queen when she was in high school. She did rodeo in college for a little while, too, but couldn't keep it up after the massacre, because everything was suffering: her social life, her schoolwork, her riding. She finally transferred to a different school, but gave up rodeo in favor of concentrating on her studies.
6. Stella has no memory of her real family and doesn't have the first idea what to look for if she were to searching, even though she's a detective and used to finding lost things.
7. To this day, Flack doesn't know if he got his promotion to detective first grade so quickly because of who his father was or because he's good at his job.
8. Flack played the violin in high school and college and he was damn good at it, enough so that he eventually just gave in and got the bachelor's in music. He doesn't play anymore. The only people that know are the ones that have his records -- Mac has never mentioned it.
9. Max is not the chosen one. There is no chosen one -- it's all the X5s. Max's unit is the oldest, so they're showing first, but give it another week or so from the series finale and Alec is going to start getting tats too (and somewhere else in the state, Zack has them, and if we were to see all of the Niner X5s we'd see that they've got ink too).
10. Will thinks he's in love with Elizabeth and wants to be in love with Elizabeth, but he's not, not really. Elizabeth has fallen out of love with Will, but she won't admit it to anyone, not even herself. Jack likes to mess with people's heads, but he's not in love with anyone except his ship.
11. Rusty Ryan is madly, passionately in love with Danny Ocean and that will never change, not even if they're on opposite sides of the world, if Danny's in prison, if they're sleeping with other people, if Danny breaks his heart, or even if Danny never notices.
12. Johnny Storm got his acceptance letter to USC right after the accident, but he's never told his father or his sister. He never managed to finish his final semester of high school, either, so he figured the point was moot even without the bursting into flames thing.
13. Johnny Storm isn't as dumb as a lot of people think he is. He's not as smart as Sue or Reed, but he grew up in the Baxter Building along with every (sane) young genius in America, so it's a hard comparison point. He was really looking forward to getting out of New York, which is why he only applied to schools out of state, a lot of which were in California. One reason was for the babes, but it was mostly about getting out of Sue's shadow.
14. Nathan West knows without a doubt that he'll never be able to marry Kylen -- maybe not even look her in the eye again -- because of what she did to his team. He knows it's not her fault, but he can't ever forget that it was going after her that led to their deaths. And he also knows that she won't ever understand.
15. The only way for Anakin to break was in that exact situation. One little turn of events, and he wouldn't have fallen. Especially if Sidious had killed Obi-Wan -- he would never have followed Sidious then. He might have gone dark, but he wouldn't have gone Sith. The only reason that he fell and remained fallen was because Sidious trapped him, Padme trapped him, and Obi-Wan trapped him.
16. Anakin is much more dangerous than anyone realizes, even Obi-Wan. And definitely much more dangerous than Sidious knows.
17. Sirius Black came back from Azkaban nowhere near entirely sane, and he knew it. He also knows that he'd trade his life for James' in a heartbeat.
18. Somewhere in Supernatural's America, there's a hunter that's been around for two hundred plus years and hasn't aged a day, but has gotten more and more dangerous with every year. This is tied into 4. (Also, SPN should totally play this even if they can't do it with one of the PotC characters.)
19. Brennan has come to the conclusion, quietly and without fanfare, that she can't fall in love. She liked Sully, but never assumed it would last and was horrified when he did. She sees the horrible things love does to people -- what it did to her family -- and doesn't ever want to be a casualty of something uncontrollable like that.
20. Mac was trained as a sniper by the Marines.
21. About halfway through her part in the war Shane Vansen realized that she was going to die during it.

Date: 2007-05-20 05:52 am (UTC)OMG
i'm so dead from the awesomeness.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-20 06:07 am (UTC)Muchly awesome. Almost as awesome as the SPN finale. Loses a few points here and there, though.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-20 06:11 am (UTC)I LOVE YOU MORE THAN WORDS CAN EXPRESS.
Okay, yeah, um, NO. Nothing nothing NOTHING was better than the SPN finale. Because, a) two parter, and b) OMG OMG OHMY HOLYFRAKKING GOD. Crossroads. A YEAR. Dean. SAMMY. *whimpers*
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-20 06:20 am (UTC)*whimpers with you* There were possibly high-pitched noises coming from central Washington. Uh, yeah, that would have been me. And, and, and...no words. DEAN. SAMMY. OH MY GOD.
Dude, the wincest is, like, canon.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-20 07:19 pm (UTC)I watched the season finale in a room with a dozen other SPN fangirls at the Harry Potter convention this past Thursday. I think EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US had our hands over our mouthes to stop the screaming and shouting and noises of extreme pain and angst. DEAN. SAM. OH OH OH.
I have THEORIES about how Dean will live. One of which I'm totally gonna write.
of course the wincest is canon!
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-20 09:21 pm (UTC)...it's a wonder you could hear the show, because a dozen fangirls are LOUD, even muffled.
I have no theories. Supernatural's so good I don't have to write fic for it. (Of course, I would be so totally amused if Sam and Dean just went around in circles with the crossroads demon for the rest of their lives. "My soul for his!" "No, mine!" "No, I'm older!" "Dude, you're the one whose life I'm trying to save!" "Dude, I don't want you to sell your soul for me!" "Dean, you did it first.")
I need to post my list of stuff I'm writing or plan to over the summer.
Well, I mean, yeah. The show could actually go there, too.

Date: 2007-05-21 01:43 am (UTC)...it's a wonder you could hear the show, because a dozen fangirls are LOUD, even muffled.
We forbid talking or noises during the show, except when we absolutely couldn't contain it. (omg I think all of us died at least once every few minutes, from trying to hold in the shouts)
My theory about how Sam will save Dean (which I'm writing a fic on):
Okay, so, the deal they made was that the demon is going to come for Dean's soul in ONE YEAR. That's what the deal is, right?
But what if they repair the giant pentagram that Colt built, with the railroad tracks. What if they rebuild it, and stand in the middle of it for 24 hours. That's all they need. Because then the demon can't get them. And when they walk out, it will be a year AND ONE DAY, which wasn't part of the deal.
But Dean can't know about it, because the deal was that he's not allowed to worm his way out of it, so Sam would have to come up with the idea and trick Dean into going through with it, without Dean knowing what's going on.
(they need to do a SGA-type thing, where one of the brothers gets possessed by a girl, who kisses the other brother, so we can see Sam and Dean kissing. Mmmh)

Date: 2007-05-21 02:22 am (UTC)God, Danny is going to be so screwed one of these days. I swear to God, if the show doesn't play his Mafia connections for all they're worth...
...and you're all still alive? Amazing.
Oooh. I like it. It could happen! I feel that that giant pentagram will be very important somehow, because it's too damn cool not to use again. (Also, because I'm an idiot, I just realized that we have Samuel COLT and Samuel WINCHESTER. Colt and Winchester are both guns. Coincidence?)
Sam is so totally going to get Dean out of it one way or another. *settles down to wait patiently*
I AM SO DOWN WITH THAT. Speaking of which, have you seen the vid where the vidder manipped Sam and Dean into kissing? It's the most awesomest vid ever.
They also need to do bodyswap, because it's a classic, and mind-reading, and a mummy ep, and seriously, they need to do an ep with an immortal hunter (which...okay, writing that), because that has to exist in this 'verse. There's so much potential in this show it's ridiculous, and I love it so much. So, so much. Have I mentioned how much I love it? THIS MUCH.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-21 03:48 am (UTC)Yeah, the show really needs to delve into his family. Actually, I'd love a season devoted just to the characters and their families, played out slowly over the entire season. Like, Mac and his (probably) rich parents, and Stella and the orphanage, and Danny's Mafia past, and Adam's abusive father. I want to see these issues all come up.
BARELY alive. But I live to eagerly await the season three premiere this fall.
(Also, because I'm an idiot, I just realized that we have Samuel COLT and Samuel WINCHESTER. Colt and Winchester are both guns. Coincidence?)
... HOLY SHIT I NEVER REALIZED THAT. Okay, I want someone to have written that. Damn.
I have NOT seen the vid where they kissed. Tragic. I have, however, re-watched the wrestling scene in the Pilot more times than I care to reveal, because that's so hot that it hurts.
I think many of us are waiting for the gender-swap episode, because it's TOO GOOD not to do, and because Kripke or someone else totally reads fic, and genderswap would be freaking hilarious.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-21 04:03 am (UTC)Oh, God. I can't wait. Thank God for the Internet, that's all I can say, because that's where I've been watching the past couple eps, on the CW site.
Seriously, with the way Kripke and Co. plot, it can't be coincidence. I mean, seriously.
This is tragic. I'm off to find the vid. Watch this NOW. (http://michaela3105.livejournal.com/17550.html?style=mine) And then make flailing motions in AWE.
Do you realize that the wrestling scene in the pilot is echoed in "What Is and What Should Never Be"? God, this show.
...dude. They need to go through every cliche in the book because they can make it good, you know? GAH.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-21 04:38 am (UTC)I download all of my episodes from various LJ comms, so I can watch them even when I'm not connected to the internet, like on flights or roadtrips.
OMG OMG THAT VID IS JUST. *flails* HOLY CRAP.
Yeah, I noticed, only Dean's like, "Man, that was so easy I'm almost ashamed for you", because dood, djinn-verse Sam is lame :D
I LOVE THIS SHOW.

Date: 2007-05-21 04:45 am (UTC)I have faith in legality pulling through. And patience. *waits for SPN S2 to come out on DVD*
OH MY GOD I KNOW. GUH.
But he still gets in the car! Despite everything, he still gets in the car! *dramatic sigh*
SHOW IS THE BEST THING EVER OH MY GOD.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-21 04:52 am (UTC)I'm too impatient to be legal. Also, you can't watch shows on broadband on CW or CBS or FOX in Canada, so I'm used to downloading them illegally anyways. Though I'll probably buy S2 of SPN when it comes out, just because it's So Damn Pretty.
Yeah, he still totally gets in the car, which ROCKS. Oh Sammy, you're so awesome, even in your lame normal 'verse.
SERIOUSLY.
(no subject)
Date: 2007-05-21 05:04 am (UTC)I haven't seen all of Season Two yet. I'm patient, though, and SPN is the one show where I really sit down and rewatch eps just for the hell of it. *cuddles S1 DVDs*
There's a WIP AU where Sam gets hit with the djinn and he ends up in Boston, where he's living a crappy normal life WITH DEAN. LIKE THAT. And apparently they're not related. It's lovely.
I LOVE THIS SHOW.

Date: 2007-05-21 05:09 am (UTC)Can you link me to that WIP AU? I'm totally intrigued!

Date: 2007-05-22 02:38 am (UTC)Supernatural is fantastic. It's. Yes. Made of the awesome.
I actually wanted to write my senior thesis for university on something similar... on what qualifies a work of fiction for literary merit, what qualifies some books as "good" literature and others as "bad", including why, for the most part, genre fiction is considered "bad" fiction, while the stuffy, literary boring novels are usually the "good" ones :D.

Date: 2007-05-22 03:21 am (UTC)YAY Supernatural. We can go around this forever and ever, can't we?
YES. Something like that.
