The Shipper Thread Version III-Ship Harder!

[Reply #240 on:]

Shiny - I like huddling coldness.

KitKat - The Professor'd probably be of the type to engineer an atomic superwoman for a bride like I tried to do last year. Then she'd run amok.

[Reply #241 on:]

Alright, I hate to refer to conversation topics long and gone, but here is a feeble attempt to revive the sticking Fry and Leela into a small space together, it goes with a story I'm doing, but I know alot of people here who unfortunately don't make visits to my thread 
So yeah...

[Reply #242 on:]

Great pic!

[Reply #243 on:]

I'm reading it. I saw the pic. I thought it was great. I think I'm great too.

[EDIT] I HATE this system. I lost my entire post - this is v2. Aaaaarrrrghh... what key did I hit ? I am going to rip it off and shove it .. tell you later where.

CelSius... Ahaaa... so Shiny is not perfect as we all feared... No Celsius, perhaps no metric system...hmmm...(prudent confidence tentatively returning). Well I speak C, F, and K and I am as metric as Calculon's beloved one - so I guess everyone will be talking to Fry_B now ! (ColdAngel squirms in his sleep - 'Hmmmm.. mmmm I can feel a bid for ultimate attention, why not...')

Shiny, may I suggest my solution to heat: I found a property on a mountain and moved on the mountain. It is always 3-4-5 deg CELSIUS (hehe) less than in the mortals' village at the botton of the mountain... Bwhahahaaa... (yes I send my winged monkeys to sour their milk and steal their children sometimes... what?? what's that, for Haloween? Errrr...yes I heard of it, in Simpsons I believe..). Still hot on XMas, but down there it must be hell...


 

To drag this kicking and screaming onto some semblance of topic: Which kind of climate would people like to see Fry and Leela stuck together in?

Definitely cold. Since The Sting is my preferred episode, I'll exemplify with the icy moon scene. Let the canon speak. Enjoy with the eyes of your mind, and tell me if this is not beautiful:

[...The dream changes to the icy moon. Fry and Leela are pulled along in a sleigh by a woolly mammoth. ...]
Leela: Oh, Fry! You must be alive; I've never been treated so romantically by my own imagination before.
Fry: Here, take my jacket. You look a little cold.
Leela: Thank you. It's all so beautiful. I forgot how many hundreds of degrees below zero it must be. I just wish I could convince the others you're alive.
Fry: You can. All you have to do is wake up.
(slightly edited)

Every time I think of that scene I can hear the mammoth thumping and feel the magic in the air - and Leela's awe at whether this is real, and her realising that Deep Down she Loves Fry. [Sigh]. Magical. In a coma. Well... if I could die like this...

 

Yes, I believe in blatant plot contrivance to force shippiness...so sue me....     

Very confident... Amy was also confident when Bender threatened with legal action in XMas Story (hear-hear) - of course not for the same reason  (hint to the audience: you'll need the DVD if you really don't believe me )

Hi, I didn't know of your thread, I'm kind of new and have very limited time (VERY) and then post in bulk     

Look, the pic is very nice - but to me, they look more worried than in the story (for now anyway). They look like they would die soon or lost something dear to them (such as Bender or Nibbler) or something like that...

[@ Cyberphobia] CyberPhobe, which Fanfic did you refer to ?

[Reply #246 on:]

Ooooh...I love that pic, TLF. Now I have to jump over to your thread to read the story. 

What they would do in a small space, like that elevator ya got there. could very well be interesting. I have not read your story yet, so I don't know what you were thinking, but I'd say it'd bring them closer together.

They'd have to learn to trust one another, and their abilities to help themselves. As seen in the pic, Fry would most likely be the one to calm the other down-as Leela is pretty hot-tempered and would probably try to do something irrational (try to kick elevator when there's no chance whatsoever) and Fry would have to settle her down.

But Leela would be the one to find a way to survive if there was any hope at all. Fry probably wouldn't be sharp enough to pick up on stuff like carbon dioxide filling the room and cutting down the oxygen, while Leela would.

In all, I'd say it would be quite an interesting peril....

[Reply #247 on:]

I'd just blast my way out using my super-powers.
...but not straight away.

[Reply #248 on:]

sure, coldangel. Sure.

[Reply #249 on:]

I would just call my minions from Hundchmir 7 and Vergon 1.Ans if they wouldn't come I would destroy them!Not all of them, I still need my minions

[Reply #250 on:]

Good minions are so hard to find nowadays... 

[Reply #251 on:]

I fly solo, and why on earth would anyone want to blast their way out of a stuck lift when they're stuck with Fry or Leela, depending on who you like! It makes no sense, why not just make the most of the time?

My thoughts exactly. If I was in a lift with someone as cute as Fry with no chance of a rescue for several hours, I think I'd make the most of it in the best way possible 

[Reply #253 on:]

Yeah, you can do a lot in a few hours

Anyway, something is bound to happen with Fry and Leela stuck in a lift together, what with all the built up sexual tension and such.

[Reply #254 on:]

It would be great if a scenario like that was shown on screen - I'd love to see the TV Fry and Leela stuck in a confined space and how they would handle the situation. I think Leela would eventually be forced to confront her feelings for Fry in that situation as she would be so vulnerable, something she isn't used to being. It would be great for exploring the characters in more depth. I can't wait to read the rest of Tasty's story!!

[Reply #255 on:]

Me neither, it should be good. Taking all bets that Fry and Leela get together by time they get out of the lift!

[Reply #256 on:]

One can't help but think how awkward it might be if one of them dropped a really big fart though.

...I'm sorry for saying that. I'm a horrible man really.

[Reply #257 on:]

Yeah I think so too 

Hopefully Leela will give in to her feelings in a BIG way 

[Reply #258 on:]

Lol that is gross. I was thinking what if one or both of them needed the toilet? That would make things a bit - er - awkward

 

[Reply #259 on:]

Can we focus on Leela relising that she loves Fry and not what would happen if they needed to pee...please?

[Reply #260 on:]

Sorry mate, didn't mean to offend  Im all for the shippiness believe me, it's just I know what my first thought would be if I was told I'd be in a lift for several hours 

Ok all forgotten. And yes, I believe Leela will realise she loves Fry by the time they get out. I think she will be hit by her vulnerability and being so close to him, that she can't help but realise it. It's one thing to avoid emotions in everyday life, but totally different when you're stuck with the person for hours. It'll be great 

[Reply #261 on:]

More than great, brilliant! I can't wait for the new series, I want to see how Fry and Leela turn out.

Ummm... what happened to your bride, ColdAngel? Are you divorced now or widowed?

Re fart in elevator: it's not gross, it's natural. Depending on who dropped it and what they had for dinner, the outcome may be different    And CA, you're not an awful man, you're a natural   

Stez: maybe she will realise that, or rather she will realise that more - I believe she kind of knows that already. I believe in dangerous situations her love comes forward but then retracts - the same may happen here.

Oh, Shiny's fic. It's really good! You should read it! She's an awesome writer!

That's the particular story I was talking about but read the ones earlier in that thread too!

[Reply #264 on:]

Theer's a lot of great Leela-and-Fy-get-togather fics out there. Funny, because one of them might actually come true...

[Reply #265 on:]

Oooh, I like that picture TLF. Especially the 'TLF WAS HERE' bit.  But also of course the Leela and Fry aspect...

They could have a competition!

[Reply #266 on:]

Yes. Also, the fanfic is HOT. I'm waiting eagerly for the next bit and... oh bubbletrumps... Look at that, I'm a Liquid Emperor. Fiddle-dee-dee.

[Reply #267 on:]

any1else; I wondered if anyone was going to going to comment on that  I was originally thinking about putting a whole lot of graffiti in there.
Something by Zapp, Bender and a random quote, but I didn't want to take away from the focus.

I'm going to go update it now.

Ooh, congrats... you know you waste too much time on here, you've over taken KKBF!

[Reply #268 on:]

I know, eh!
Little devil, I'm gonna strangle him...
 
I just went and read your story, too. Very nice. The elevator opens up soooo many possiblities for shippy....

[Reply #269 on:]

Indeed. They should lock themselves in small spaces more often.

[Reply #270 on:]

Indeed they should. 

[Reply #271 on:]

And stuff... without clothes...

[Reply #272 on:]

....or maybe a mallet and some Ice cubes.  Don't look at me like that, you don't know till you've tried it.

[Reply #273 on:]

No no, I wasn't looking..... It's all... good.

[Reply #274 on:]

Hmm. I remeber reading a story somewhere that involved Leela and Fry stuck together on the PE ship. I can't remember the name though. I've searched for so many stories, good, bad, weird, and yet I don't remember a single title. It's all good though. Cuz I remember that about 3 out of 4 were shippy.

[Reply #275 on:]

Trapped in a sauna would be good.

Yes... that's putting the 'intelligent' in 'intelligent long-winded discussion'.


Here's something to mull on: What the hell was Leela so happy about at the start of Godfellas? She was cheerfully humming away and singing to herself in the casual throwaway manner that people sometimes do after they've just had sex.
Perhaps while Bender was snoozing below deck, she and Fry took the opportunity for a little R&R, and the episode begins just after they've put their clothes on and resumed their stations... Leela hums happily to herself...

[Reply #276 on:]

^Nah I don't like that because they wouldn't be keen to touch each other because it would be too hot. And sweaty is gross.

Maybe a spa would be better? It's nicely warm/hot but you don't feel hotter (temperature wise) by touching someone else. Plus they're already half naked (in bathers).

[Reply #277 on:]

Bleh... or the cockpit of a starship... see my edit above.

[Reply #278 on:]

You know it is possible for people to be in good moods even if they haven't had sex. And for them to not mention it again... errr too far-fetched.

[Reply #279 on:]

The therapist said I'm allowed one sick fantasy a week, and I want that one.
