Welcome to the 199 1/2th Literati thread.
Last thread till 200! Girls, we are almost there!!!

The last thread is situated here.


~ Nadine

Friendship ~ "From the moment they met each other, Rory and Jess connected. They bonded over books and music and became friends. Friendship eventually turned into love, but when Jess left Stars Hollow, all seemed lost. But nothing is farther from the truth. Jess changed, he got his life together, thanks to Rory, and wrote a book. When he came back to visit Rory, he helped her get her own life back. That's what friends do. And maybe one day they will be those friends that they once were..." ~ Sus

~ Renata. M

Love ~ "Most people say that the road of true love never did run smooth, Rory and Jess are an example of that. We all know what they share is a love you only find once in a life. They have proved more than once, by words and actions that they love each other. The way they speak it through their actions is what I feel is more special one.. until the day Rory actually says 'I Love You' officially to him. I have always believed that they are soulmates. And I will continue on doing that!" ~ Camilla


~ konstantine23

Mistakes ~ "Both Jess and Rory made alot of mistakes, but those mistakes shouldnt be discounted for not loving each other enough. I think they are proof enough that they want to try and be with each other regardless of their flaws and their mistakes, because one simple mistake can cause you everything, but it also gives you and opportunity to make things right for you..." ~ Tiana


~ Vartan23

Changing ~ "Every change that Jess ever made in himself was all for the benifit of Rory. He made himself a better man for her and that is true love.." ~ Jess




Coming Back ~ "True love is not easy to find and not easy to live when you're 17. Rory and Jess lost each other a while ago but I'm sure that soon they'll be ready for it. They'll find their way back to each other and they'll have learn enough to make it real for good this time.." ~ Jessica

The Future ~ "As for what the future, nobody can really know how everything will turn out. A shipper like me can only hope that some day, things will brighten for both of them. A day where they finally see that where they belong is with each other, nowhere else. The grown up Jess we last saw on the screen was everything Rory hoped for him to be, and now they are finally on the same length, ready to be together. After all, the future is up to them and THEM only. If they are meant to be, they will end up together in the end..." ~ Camilla

Please PM alwaysbeenyou if you wanted to be added to the shippers list or a site/fic/reason to contribute and DONT ask in the thread cos chances are you wont be added otherwise. Thank you


Love ~ "To me, Rory & Jess are the definition of true love. There love began as an innocent and pure friendship which I feel gave them a sense of trust and truth. This couple had everything heat, passion, romance, lust, friendship and most importantly love. Even if others deny it, he knows it, she knows it and we know it - They love each other!!!.." ~ Kaylee

Coming Back ~ I think that Jess has really finally grew into the person that he wanted to be now when at first he couldnt do it with rory. I think he finally is at the point of his life where she is it for him and he is it for her. Jess is at the point where Rory always wanted him to be, that he was sure of himself and that he was sure of being with rory and ready for their relationship. and for that he deserves to be with Rory with every fiber of his being. ~ Tiana


Returning for the 200th thread

The Future ~"When I look into the future of these two characters, I believe that they will find each other. I have never used the word "soulmates" until I started shipping this couple. They belong together and even if the show ends with the characters seperated I will still have faith that they will realise this too." ~ Kaylee

Love ~ "While searching for inspiration I found it difficult to think of any words that do the love that I feel between Jess and Rory any justice. So, when I came across this quote, I knew it was perfect for expressing my thoughts. "Today I begin to understand what love must be, if it exists. When we are parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love to be: incompleteness in absence." ~ Jess

Precious Little Moments

Season 3 coming soon


Coming back ~ "I believe Rory is Jess’s North Star. He strays away from home but in the end he always comes back to her because she is his harbor. Through the seasons we have seen that Jess always comes back and his reasons for doing so are always linked to Rory. The force of their love is too strong for them too be away from each other for too long. The fact that ASP always brings Jess back gives me faith that she too knows that this couple is one that always comes back and maybe then she’ll eventually gives us what we all want - a happy ending.." ~ Nicola

Friendship ~ "The best love is built on amazing friendship and Jess is the only boyfriend that Rory was friends with before anything else. Rory's connection with Jess is deeper then any other guy could ever hope to have with her." ~ Jess

Mistakes ~ "I think both Jess and Rory made a fair amount of mistakes whe it came to their relationship. But even though they made a lot of mistakes, I feel they learned a lot from them and have shaped the people they have become today. Jess' mistakes showed Rory a different side of love she hadnt ever seen, and Rory's mistakes made Jess realise how much he cared for Rory. Whatever the mistake, I feel that Rory and Jess will always find their way back to each other" ~ Kaylee

Coming Back ~ It's as if Rory and Jess have a magnetic field that draws them together. No matter how many times they are seperated...there is no doubt that he will return for her. She is his home in a world where he's never truely had one before she came along.. ~ Jess


Friendship ~ "Before there was love, before there was passion - there was friendship. I think Jess is the only one of Rory’s relationships where they had a stable friendship before actually crossing the border to a full on relationship. Their friendship is definitely one of the things that drew me to this ship. They’re able to understand each other on a level that know one else is. They connect in so many ways and that’s because they have so many of the same interests and goals in life - its what made them great friends. During the ‘friendship period’ I believe they forged an unbreakable bond that surpasses all barriers and will remain forever. Therefore even if this ship do not end up together in the end, I have firm faith in knowing that they’ll have a friendship that will last a lifetime." ~ Nicola

The First Meeting

RORY: I'm Rory.
JESS: Yeah, I figured.
RORY: Nice to meet you.
JESS: [looking at bookshelf] Wow, aren't we hooked on phonics.
RORY: Oh, I read a lot. Do you read?


RORY: You stole my book.
JESS: Nope, borrowed it.
RORY: Okay, that's not called a trick, that's called a felony.
JESS: I just wanted to put some notes in the margins for you.
RORY: What? [looks through the book] You've read this before.
JESS: About forty times.
RORY: I thought you said you didn't read much.
JESS: Well, what is much? Goodnight Rory.
RORY: Goodnight Dodger.

The First Kiss

JESS: You look nice.
RORY: Thank you. What are you doing here?
JESS: I moved back.
RORY: What?
JESS: I moved back.
RORY: But – what – why?
JESS: Just wanted to.
*Rory Kisses him*

The Bridge

JESS: Dean’s a jerk. Yelling at you like that, breaking up in front of everybody . . . the guy’s a total jerk.
RORY: No, he’s not. He’s right. Everything he said. All those things about you and me, all those things about me lying to him, and messing with his head. He was right. Well, wasn’t he? Fine, he was right about me, then. Now go away.
JESS: He was right. . . about all of it.
RORY: So, what now?
JESS: You’re definitely broken up with Dean?
RORY: Yeah, I’m definitely broken up with Dean.
JESS: Okay. I have to go take care of something then.

The 'almost' Kiss

RORY: So, now what?
JESS: Now we should. . .
RORY: Well, I think we either need to get a little closer or need to warm up.
JESS: Okay. Hi.
RORY: Hi.
[they are about to kiss when Luke bursts into the room]

The 'real' Kiss

RORY: Yeah, here we are. So, tell me, what’s your decision about smoking that depending on?
JESS: On what’s gonna happen.
RORY: When?
JESS: Now.
[They kiss]
RORY: I’m glad you didn’t smoke it.
JESS: Oh yeah?
RORY: Yeah.
[they kiss again]
JESS: Well, whatever else happens between us, at least we know that part works.

The I Love You

JESS: I love you.

The Comeback Part I

JESS: Look, you know we're supposed to be together. I knew it the first time I saw you two years ago, and you know it, too. I know you do.

The Comeback Part II

Jess: I know you. I know you better than anyone!

The Comeback Part III

Rory: I'm so sorry that I came here.
Jess: I'm not. It's what is: you, me.

This is not the end!
