I have found a load of nerdy stats stuff on my computer

Also some bingo cards. /random.

I do rather like this graph though

I guess I would never have wanted to not see everything....and I only rewatch my favorite parts...but I can't imagine dropping the story midstream...maybe because I came this close to never seeing reunion or finding out what happened when Becky's YT channel got taken down.

I think the last episode gave me perfect closure...and seeing them walk off together...their future is only in our hearts and imaginations....in Birmingham...with Yasmin....

That's where my focus is...celebrating Chryed getting their happy ending....they made it thru the crap and came out the other side...
Thank you Kathy, lovely words, and yes, that's what I want to do to, celebrate the happy ending (/'cos yes I struggle, and the bad stuff hurts, but the happy ending happened!, and I'll cling to it, it means so much to me!!), and I want to remember all that those who cared created, which was a lot! and all the good things this thread brought us (brought me). . I'm a Chryedian, I spent so long caring. They're in my heart, as is this experience we all went through. x

/proper normal *cough* :sleep:

I love the graph! Don't remember seeing this before? Am loving discovering all this old stuff.

Has anyone got a link to Pear's monopoly? That was legendary, I'd post it myself but it's in my photobucket account that I'm locked out of *sobs* It was SO funny!

I actually thought about that episode a while back and came up with a (weak ) reason why Syed couldn't say ILY. It was to do with the pride thing as well. It could be that saying 'I love you' makes the betrayal with Danny seem worse, more unforgivable. So if Syed could avoid saying it, it would mean sleeping with Danny was something he could fix. Orrr, he assumes he can't fix things, so he tries to convince Christian to stay without saying ILY because saying that is unfair to Christian (in Syed's weird little mind.) Does that make any kind of sense?? Though it's still ridiculous, it could be kind of what Syed was thinking...? Idk, I haven't watched the episode back and kind of don't plan to ever.

I'm working on a personality quiz for the thread.
I think that's kind of what they were going for, yeah. Like, he can't leave Christian alone and not want to be with him, because he needs him and needs Christian to forgive him because he feels so awful about it, so he can't just stop trying to get back together with him. But he thinks Christian deserves better, and is sabotaging himself. Like he only tells Christian he loves him after he's given Yasmin to Amira, knowing that Christian won't take him back. It's only when the possibility presents itself that he could lose Christian properly that he's really willing to give his all to get him back. It's pretty weak, yeah, but I can sort of see it. The 'I was too proud' 'explanation' made me laugh aloud though.

BiB: Yay!

That graph is brilliant Sylae

Just randomly looking through my old photobucket as you do, pics reminded me of red button episodes and how we got so much more than we were expecting (for a change) I remember I could barely believe what I was seeing lol.

I also found chryed penguin cam:sleep: and this, but have absolutely no recollection of what it is referring to

Star, I knew I had it somewhere!!! Thought I'd deleted it when I deleted my stuff off my old laptop. Omg, 'soap logic' with the question mark More relevant than ever.

Also, just found this quote on Tumblr. So true:

what i mean when i call a character perfect is “wow look at how flawed you are, how broken and three dimensional and well written. look how much of a disaster you are and how you are constantly torn between right and wrong and you make so many mistakes along the way wow look how human you are”

so basically when i say they are perfect what i mean is thank god they aren’t

Yeah, that. It's kind of a pride thing I guess? Like, saying ILY is the last thing he has to convince Christian to stay, so if he says it and Christian doesn't stay then he's totally out of options. Although that makes little sense actually because isn't there a scene where Christian actually asks him to say it and he doesn't? Jeez, that whole thing was a mess.

BIB oh god, that actually happened. It might not even have been so bad if they'd had Syed explain it in a little bit more depth than 'I was too proud lol.'

Okay I made a quiz! It was totally done in like 10 minutes and I made up the questions as I went along but hopefully someone finds it vaguely entertaining!

So...which half of Chryed are you?

Awww I loved all the hugs we got We were lucky with Ellitridge they always hugged so naturally, were very tactile, and each hug expressed a lot, meant different things. I know hugs are scripted, but it's the little extras that make it real and affectionate and convey meaning.

And yes, *waves* to elphie, such a huge part of the thread, hope things are going ok for you out there

I just remember talking to you and we were convinced there had to be more to it. Had to be. But he literally says, word for word, 'too proud to say I love you'. No clarification. Despite the fact Syed doesn't look the slightest bit 'too proud' in ANY of the scenes where he doesn't say ILY, he looks totally broken and like he'd do anything to get Christian back (Marc crazily playing it like Syed was IC. Maybe he should have stuck his nose in the air to try to convey 'pride').

I'm Syed. I'm truly shocked that I'm not like Christian, the extroverted social butterfly who doesn't take shit from anyone. :sleep:

BIB was basically the story of our lives for most of the stuff we got in the last two years. :sleep:

I just took it myself and got Syed as well. Shocker!

Yay, thank you!

OOoo love it. I am Christian!
Interesting! Writing the results description made me lol - so cliche!

I am in fact! Just been having a look through all of today's post, what an odd feeling to come back and have loads of pages to look through, just like old times! So odd to think that I used to be like almost permanently here! My love for Chryed seems to have been irrecoverably dented by anger at most of the stuff that happened post DC week *coughAmira'sreturnwtfwasthatcough* :sleep: and how wasted the great characters and actors were but I still have a huuuuuge love for this thread and most importantly all you gorgeous, bonkers Chryedians

Can't be around much this weekend but I'll definitely try and have a read through of tomorrow's posts too Love and kisses to all Xxxxx
