SV, non-spoilery...

...unless you're a total nutcake.

You know, dear friends, last night, really for the first time, I thought wow--that Chloe is cute--no, more than cute, she's really pretty! Really pretty. I was very impressed.

I hate Lana. Yes, sorry, I really do.

I don't think she's pretty--she has a rodent-like quality I find off-putting and strange(hee-hee) in looks and personality, which is why I think when I write her, I try not to trash her. Most of the time.

But when you hook her up in a fic with Chloe, she's interesting and I think in the right hands a very attractive pairing. Chloe takes some of the 'stupid fucking bitch' out of Lana. She completes her. (sorry, sorry...snorfle!)

Mind you, it's highly unlikely that I'll ever write them, but I do like the idea. shadowstar_gzan made me think of it with her story, "Death March." It comes in two flavors, angsty pain and happpyending. I liked it! I like Chloe! Except really really not with Lex. Thank you.

I always have thought that Lana/Chloe worked and really, they do have a sparkle together, that they don't with the others.

That's it exactly! In my mind, Chloe gives Lana humor and a zest for living that she has in spades and Lana gives Chloe a good stable base, and lots of love. Hmmmm...*wards off bunny with stick*

Most of the Chloe/Lana slash I've read, to date, is kind of bland. Most femme slash amuses me because the people who write girl/girl for the most part tend to write the sex like it isn't happening - "Ew! Girls don't do that kind of stuff!" I mean, it's like reading about your maiden aunties (who are nuns) getting it on.

Heeeeee! Maiden nun aunties! The picture in my head....*snorfle!*

I do love Chloe. There really is something wrong when *Lana* gets more screen time than Chloe, who's a gorgeous *and* charismatic!

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

I agree with you a hundred percent. She has a lot going on and when they don't write her like she's an idiot, she shines!

[quiet--tiger.livejournal.com]

"Rodent"! *That's* why Lana looks the way she does!! I couldn't figure out why she looks so odd...

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Heee! Big Echoey--we're informative! *grin*

Chloe is so spunky. She is also the character who seems less hung up on issues in the past. When she's paired with Lana she can pull the pink princess out of her shell of 'me-me-me', 'my dead parents', 'abandonment' blah blah. Chloe is just so Chloe, human and essentially cool!

Absolutely!

Lana and Chloe together are much, *much* better than Lana by her whiny ol' lonesome. In fact, I thought the opening scene in "Spirit," with Lana and Chloe snarking together in the school corridor, was pretty damn funny. KK and AM seem to have a much better rapport than KK has with TW.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

It's very true--Lana looks like a real girl in scenes with her , and *eeeeeeeeeeeerrrff* ...with MR. I think it might be because she *likes* them and it comes through.

[jennifus.livejournal.com]

I've always thought Chloe was pretty, but last night she looked gorgeous. I noticed it after a minute... I was all, "woah... AM looks pretty hot this episode. Hope they keep her this way."

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

It just jumped off the screen, how pretty she is.

[lishel_fracrium.livejournal.com]

hello! yeah chloe is so much prettier than Lana. Lana to me,looks like a squirel. but hey that's just my opinion. *g* and shadowstar's fic was really awesome the first ending made me cry and the second made me grin. so yeah two flavors how cool is that? so how was your day?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

It was a great little story wasn't it? *happy sigh*
I went to bed eartly last night-it's morning for me now and so far--it's going good! lol! Hope yours was good! *hug*

[lishel_fracrium.livejournal.com]

*hugs back* I'm going to work tonight. are you still up?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

I'm here--*wave*

[lishel_fracrium.livejournal.com]

hey! *waves* do you work today?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Nope! free as a bird--except for the part where Mr. Roxy keeps bugging me every five minutes....

[lishel_fracrium.livejournal.com]

hehe. yeah except for that part. *g* will you be up tonight around 12am central time?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

what's that eastern... and probably! *g*

[lishel_fracrium.livejournal.com]

hello. I'm home. how was your day?

I love Chloe and Lana! Together or with a third party (male, I've done Whitney, Clark and Lex - tellingly, Clark did not work out, the other two did), I think I actually consider them on a par with Clark and Whitney and slightly above Clex for my liking them. They're one of the few really interesting f/f relationships around and it saddens me a little that so much Lana hate means that the relationship doesn't get explored. There's so much room to play in f/f but I don't know why more people aren't interested.

They're just sweet - in a non-sickening way - together.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

People mistake fandom Lana hate as the character, that her motivations and personality are all self-centered and whiny but it's not true, obviously she's meant to be a heroic little girl, and the sort of person who would inspire love in a very decent and heroic boy.

what the writers did with her afterward and the actor's abilities...well....

Myself, I just don't like her. On the show or in RL. Interviews I've read or seen on TV don't do a darn thing to change my opinion of her. In the rare instance she shows up in a fic I write I usually make her very nice because I don't trust myself not to make her a monster which she very plainly is *not*--(except for the one time I actually did make her a literal monster, heh!)

I think that's it--they are sweet together.
They are good together.

[rumpuso.livejournal.com]

(I loved your monster Lana fiction! You wicked thing you!)

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

lol! *hug*

[shadowstar-gzan.livejournal.com]

*blinks* Thanks muchly for reccing me. *blinks some more* ^.^

And yeah, there is much to be explored with Chloe/Lana. Like joanne_c said, it kinda sucks that because of all the Lana bashing going on, Chloe doesn't get some girl-attention XD *ponders* It is good to see there's a bit of a fan demand, though, for Chlana. Perhaps there will be more writing of such a pairing?

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

After how beautiful she looked the other night, it's possible--though goodness, it won't be me! *grin*

I hope you don't mind I mentioned your story--I just enjoyed it--both versions--so much and like I said, got me thinking about Chloe.

[shadowstar-gzan.livejournal.com]

*g* Got your hands full with wonderful dirty!wrong!Lucas/Lex?

Oh, not at all. It just shocked me a bit, is all. ^.^ I'm glad you enjoyed it. =)

[mobiusklein.livejournal.com]

I don't mind femslash, I just think Chloe deserves better and I think while Lana improves around Chloe, Chloe usually gets stomped on in order to do it and I can't dig that.

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

I think if that's the way it's written then Chloe is OOC, because no way could she not handle Lana, in my book!
