Mischa Barton - Alex/Marissa #2: If they can't go to the red states, we don't want to either.

Welcome to the Alex & Marissa "Malex" thread!

Welcome to the thread dedicated to the relationship between Marissa and Alex! It didn't last very long, but it became one of Marissa's- and the show's- more popular and talked about pairings. Here's the thread to discuss them, gush over them, lament that they weren't given more of a chance. No bashing of Marissa, Alex, Mischa, Olivia, or their relationship. Have fun!

Add me!

I looooove the FP.

**Cristofle** · 09-03-2007, 10:58 PM

Done!

There was NO art for ages, I didn't even notice. I stayed up for like an hour or two making art for it, lol.

CreekFreak · 09-03-2007, 11:02 PM

Thanks!

It's really pretty. Especially the first banner. DARK HAIR FWNS.

fwns= ****ing owns.

~Melissa~ · 09-03-2007, 11:06 PM

Add me!

OMG, those banners rock my face off.

**Cristofle** · 09-03-2007, 11:11 PM

Added, Mel!

Thanks!

I actually found that picture of Olivia and thought it was stunning, and then I remembered the VF shot of Mischa, and voila. Two stunningly gorgeous ladies.

**-Alicia-** · 09-03-2007, 11:37 PM

The banners are gorgeous! And i'm so glad we finally got a second thread of these two! We need to keep this thread more active. This was her best ship on the OC, IMO.

**Sam_MC** · 09-04-2007, 01:33 AM

Add me to the list too

Shame on me for not being there already.

And I shadow everyone else by saying WICKED BANNERS, yo.

ETA: Just remembered that I can edit myself in lol

**-Alicia-** · 09-04-2007, 10:46 AM

Hahaha. The many powers of being a mod. Get used to them, Sam

**Cristofle** · 09-04-2007, 11:08 AM

LMAO! *pets Sam*

I need to make use of those lovely caps that you made, Sam!

your_konstantine · 09-04-2007, 11:24 AM

Add me!
ADORE the arts!

eatyourgreens · 09-04-2007, 02:47 PM

Add me too!

I really wish I had appreciated them more in their heyday.

**Cristofle** · 09-04-2007, 02:53 PM

We so did not appreciate them as much as we should have for the most part.

209 Alex rocked the hardest from the beginning, though. Always loved her for that!

CreekFreak · 09-04-2007, 02:58 PM

I wish they had Alex come back for the S3 finale and Marissa could have went off with her or something. It's not like her death was actually explored in S4, so it really wouldn't have mattered.

**-Alicia-** · 09-04-2007, 03:17 PM

Alex should have came back anyways. She was awesome, and she hated Ryan.
