how it all began...

slink said: i think i'm going to start a new group called the DDOB: DD-obsessed basketcases. wanna join? laura (now known as "altair") said: I'm in. What now? slink: we keep doing the same things we've been doing. picking up every single magazine and tabloid to search for DD pix and gossip, visit miri's photo gallery every day, um... have a blank tape handy at all times for any clips of him on tv, especially entertainment tonight or the e! channel... got any other suggestions? laura: Try to get our hands on any and every movie he has ever appeared in. Quote Mulder to your friends (or anyone who cares to listen). Record DD's voice on audio-tape to listen to whenever. Put Mulder saying "You have any Dramamine on you by any chance 'cause these things make me seasick" (from Squeeze) on your answering machine. (Its on there now!) slink: i just figured out our theme song: you are an obsession you're my obsession who do you want me to be to make you sleep with me? x x x x x x x x x x laura said: Told you I was obsessed! = ) Uh....now I'm ashamed. slink said: don't be. the DDOB is where you can express all your sick and twisted desires and fantasies without being judged as sick and twisted. laura said: He's just wasting time 'til he finds one of us. ;-0 slink said: wow, not only are you obsessed, you're delusional as well! hee hee! talk about sick and twisted fantasies. mine is that i will run into his mom some time and she will be so impressed with me that she'll fix me up with him. oh boy, now who's ashamed...? x x x x x x x x x x we do have NC17 scenarios every once in a while. hopefully, they are more "tasteful" (oooh, bad pun) than the whipped-cream orgies available in that other forum... slink said: i hereby declare lioness to be the official erotica writer-downer, because both laura and i are shy about that kind of thing. actually, i can do a little of the foreplay stuff (see my previous message with the back rub etc.), but beyond that... no, i can't do it. laura said: Sorry. I just can't do what lioness has done. Shy, you know. But get me alone with him, and I shall be shy no more. = ) Forgive me? slink: hey, no problem, i understand completely. i get embarrassed enough just reading some of the NC17 stuff out there, let alone write it myself... but just keep feeding us these little tidbits about the fireplace and the wine, and *especially* the sharing the shower part! ;-P laura: Well, I didn't want to be forced out for my shyness. slink: no no no. we would never do that. everyone has her own comfort level with this stuff. x x x x x x x x x x fun with DD's various personae: lioness said: Just let her know that Randy is spoken for. slink said: i'll tell her that the lioness has staked out her territory. ;-) lioness: I'll share him but I want him back afterwards...*grin* x x x x x x x x x x and we do actually exchange real commentary on DD's movie performances... lioness: Daniel is from Julia Has Two Lovers and Brian is from Kalifornia. (Brian is kinda what Mulder would have been like without the Samantha abduction, I think. A little bit cocky, slightly blind to some obvious things, but very focused when he wants to be.) Daniel is a little on the shallow side until the scene with his friend where he is discussing his fears of letting a lover know him. He paces around the deck and looks sooo vulnerable and little boy like that it really changes the viewer opinion of the character. x x x x x x x x x x more shameless drooling... lioness said: I know, I know, you want the original Glamourpuss clotheshorse. slink said: superficial, i know, but then again, i only want him for one thing (and it ain't his mind)... over and over and over... he's so fuckin' hot, i can't stand it, especially in the shiny black leather pants and chartreuse blazer... x x x x x x x x x x group discussion is encouraged. i would like to have one of these topics per week, perhaps. laura asked: Which episode is your favorite DD/FM episode? Just wondering...... slink said: wow. great question. the entire group can get in on this one. "grotesque" definitely has some great DD/FM moments. and the meeting between him and his father in "endgame" is just amazing when he transforms from confident adult man into quivering 12-year-old boy in a matter of 10 seconds. great work. and the showdown scene in "pusher"... i-yi-yi... when he puts the gun to his head and then when he swings it around to scully and then when he's desperately trying to hold his finger back and whispering her name... that man can act when he puts his mind to it. x x x x x x x x x x our basic philosophy: lioness said: Catherine, I hope that you are over the age of consent. I trust that you checked on this already, slink. slink said: lioness, of course i checked! only grown-ups are allowed in this club. grown-up, mature, intelligent women who turn into quivering puddles of teenybopper jello at the mere thought of DD and his many celluloid incarnations... ;-P that way, we can have intellectual, psychological analysis of mulder, randy, DD himself, etc, *and* exult in virtual physical pleasures... in other words, we can have our cake and eat it too. x x x x x x x x x x the confessional booth... catheraven said: Hi, my name is Catherine, and I have a confession to make. Sure I saw X-Files occasionally in its first season: Tooms, Born Again, and one or two others. Sure I saw X Files in its second season, lots of times. But I did not recognize the True Power of the X until I saw Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose and misted up for a day and a half afterwards. I did not set my VCR on those many Friday nights when I sinfully, unfaithfully, went out instead of watching X Files. But now . . . now I have seen the light. Now I go to slink's to *watch* the X Files on many a Friday night, but whether I do or not, I redeem myself like a true believer and videotape . . . Now I believe that Mulder and Scully are right for each other . . . Now I have begun to write X Files fanfic . . . Now I am a David Duchovny Obsessed Basketcase. Hallelujah! Praise Be! slink said: thank you, sister catherine, for that powerful testimony. i, too, was not fully convinced of the True Power of the X (look, everybody, she used a capital letter!) until the second season premier, and even then i only watched the first four faithfully. i totally missed duane barry, ascension, and one breath until a few months ago... but i too have seen the light! i watched and taped every ep this season! and i have converted several friends...
