Post away and spread the Candy love that Michael & Maria shared.


Rules of the thread :

1. No bashing of Michael Guerin or Maria Deluca.
2. The conversation must somehow always come back to our beloved couple. (But hey, that's not hard right? Because we know that anything can be related to Roswell.)
3. Have fun! If you're lurking feel free to post. We're all family here.

Michael Guerin is in many ways the most complex character on "Roswell," and the most driven as well.
Unlike Max and Isabel, he has grown up in a very unhappy environment, being bounced around from
various foster homes with neglectful caretakers who have given him no support or encouragement.
He lived in a trailer park with his latest foster dad, Hank, who was a mean and abusive drunk. As a result,
Michael has become a complete outsider, coming close to flunking out of school despite his hidden brilliance,
and trusting no one but Max and Isabel. He has become obsessed with finding out the truth about his origins
as a means to escape the world that he has come to despise, and he often acts in an impetuous way to achieve
this goal. Michael is also the most emotional of the alien trio, and the one most likely to act on his feelings.
Michael has the least amount of control of his powers, due to his insecurity and inability to control his emotions.

["The minute we put Michael and Maria together in a car in [the episode] '285 South',
we knew we had to move forward with that relationship.
It was definitely our plan to do that,
but seeing that natural, electric kind of rapport they had with each other,
we moved it ahead faster."
- Jason Katims, fandom.com, 2000 ]

["That to me, is an excitement and joy you get from writing for TV that you don't get everywhere. ...
The Maria-Michael relationship is the most clear example.
It's really fun watching Majandra [Delfino, who plays Maria,] and Brendan [Fehr, who plays Michael,]...
The way they relate to each other has all this great humor in it, and it's so charming.
It's something that we feel when we're writing it; we feel excited about it, as there's such great chemistry between them."
- Jason Katims, Science Fiction Weekly Interview ]

["Michael's feelings are in too deep to carry through with this destiny…
I have a feeling they are not going to, because the whole moral of the story is
do you choose your destiny or is your destiny what is in your heart."
- Majandra Delfino, Talkcity.com ]

["The idea of writing the scenes between Maria and Michael, where they're so alive and have such a great sense of humor between them, is also great."
- Jason Katims, Science Fiction Weekly Interview ]

Candy quotes from the show


- Michael: Ok, that man out there knows stuff about the '47 crash. All right? Stuff specific to me. Ok. So I want to take him around. I want to jog his memory, and to do that, I need the Jetta.
- Maria: I'm sorry. When humans need rides, they take Jettas. And when aliens need rides, they take spaceships. Oh! Find one.

(Summer of 47season 2)


*****

- Maria: "I'm not as flat as I thought I was."
- Michael: Well, it's a wide angle lens, so…""

(From Tess, Lies and videotape)

*****

- Michael: "I've been thinking…"
- Maria: "Great. That usually involves me having to get my car towed."

(From four square)

*****

- Michael: I’m not completely emotionally retarded. I have feelings.
- Maria: All right, then walk ‘em over there and give them a work out.

(From disturbing behaviour)

*****

- Michael: She’s obsessed with me.
- Maria: Well, I guess that makes two of you, then, doesn’t it?

(From Harvest)

*****

Michael: We all got fired.
Maria: Wait. You got the whole department fired?
Michael: Whose side are you on? I didn't get everybody fired. We all drank of the Snapple.
Maria: Wait, "drank of the Snapple." When did we get on biblical terrain here?

(Michael, the guys and the Great Snapple capper, season 3)


*****


Michael is dressed as Santa and Maria as Snowflake, and are entertaining children at a Christmas village.

- Michael: (to Maria) Wanna fetch me a Snapple?
- Maria: What?
- Michael: I'm dry as a bone here. Been talking all day. Come on, Snowflake.
- Maria: Michael, there's no way that I'm gonna-
- Michael: Michael? I'm not Michael. I'm Santa. Paul, don't you think that Snowflake should fetch Santa a Snapple?
- Kids: Of course you should. You're an elf.
- Michael: Exactly. And I'll need a foot rub later, too.
- Maria: Uh, you know what, Santa? I think I have a Snapple in my little elf house.

(Maria drags Michael into the elf house)

- Maria: Fetch me a Snapple?
- Michael: You're supposed to be Santa's helper.
- Maria: Oh, that's a load of crap. You're doing this deliberately.
- Michael: Doing what?
- Maria: Trying to get back at me because I broke up with you.
- Michael: Hey, Snowflake, you're an elf. It's your job. Get over yourself.
- Maria: Stop taunting me.
- Michael: I'm not taunting you. Look, the reason that I did this to begin with was to get away from you. You think I wanna be here? Isabel roped me into this.
- Maria: Then we'll keep to ourselves, and we'll be fine.
- Michael: Fine.
- Maria: Perfect.
- Michael: I miss you.
- Maria: I miss you, too.

(Michael kisses Maria- they fall down on the floor kissing, and a kid walks up to the door and sees them)

- Kids: It's Santa! Santa and Snowflake are kissing.
- Michael: We gotta hide.
- Kids: Gross. Mommy, Santa and Snowflake are doing it. They're doing it !!!

(Samuel Rising, season 3)

*****

- Michael: But I wouldn't trade it for anything. It's meant so much to me, y'know. From day one, from the moment I kidnapped you and stole your car... I knew you were the girl for me. I never wanted anyone else...
- Maria: Michael... (takes a step towards him, sad, but touched.)
- Michael: I still don't. Just... Wherever I'm goin', whatever I'm doin', just know I'll always love you.

…/…

- Maria: I'm not going back, either…/… My future's here.
- Michael: Maria... think about what you're saying...
- Maria: (walks slowly over to Michael.) ...I have, and... this is my choice. This is what I want. And... whatever that is in the end, that's what it'll be... but... we're doing it together.
[Michael studies her and finally smiles, pulling her to him and kissing her tenderly on the forehead.]

(Graduation, season 3)



*****

- MARIA: I want you to know that what I said about you being all shut down and that's why I had to fake the flashes, that was...wrong and very unfair. If something went wrong, it was because of me. I'm the one who's scared. I mean, I fake all kinds of things all the time with everybody. It's just you were the first person I actually ever admitted it to.
- MICHAEL: Well...thanks for sayin' that, but it's not really true.
- MARIA: What do you mean?
- MICHAEL: It's not true about you being shut down all the time. I happen to know that for a fact.
- MARIA: Really? How?
- MICHAEL: Because you let me see you. The red sneakers, Maria. One had a Kermit patch on it, and the shoelaces were blue, and you had your dalmatian dog with you there, licking off your tears. And I saw a whole bunch of other stuff as well. Was I right?
- MARIA: Yeah. Um...that dog died when I was, like, 7. Right after my father left.
- MICHAEL: Kinda rough?
- MARIA: Yeah. I'd say so. I really didn't care about the stupid flashes. I just wanted us to be close.
- MICHAEL: Thanks.

(Michael kisses Maria on her forehead and reaches over and hugs her with his left arm)

(Sexual Healing, season 1)



*****


(Michael and Maria are driving back in Maria's car)

- Michael: What?
- Maria: No, it's just kind of funny how surprising things can get. All this time that I've known you, I've just always thought of you as, like, this guy, you know. Like this weird guy from the other side of the tracks going nowhere in life, which, of course, you know, you still are that but...what I didn't realize was that there's this whole other side to you.
- Michael: What, that I'm from--
- Maria: Well, clearly there's that, but putting that aside, underneath that, um, weird, poorly bathed exterior, there's, like, this whole...deeply wounded, vulnerable guy.
- Michael: Listen, all right, in terms of what happened yesterday between us, that was just we were on the road. All right, we talked. That's all over.
- Maria: Of course. Wait. You think something happened between us?

(River Dog, season 1)

ashleyt

I really love their scenes in Toy House I wonder if she still has the napkin holder?

xmag

Oh, yeah, no doubt that Maria kept it. It's not like her to get rid of it. But after Graduation, hmm no, I don't think she had it with her. She had to go pretty quickly and lots of her stuff had to stay at Amy's, like Alex's guitar. Which probably made Maria sad.

Caliina

tftnt

ashleyt

I wonder if there was any way to send those things to the gang?

xmag

Hmm, maybe through Laurie, Michael's kind of sister. Isabel could contact her in her dreams as well as contact the parents in their dreams, to give instructions about what to send to Laurie. I don't think that Laurie Dupree was on the army's radar. They didn't know of her familial link with Michael.

ashleyt

They could find out through Laurie's Aunt and Uncle

AutumnColorsღ

Wow I cant believe I never been asked to be on the list. Could I be added?

xmag

I had forgotten about those dumbasses. But the FBI or the army would have to think about Laurie, if she has a link or not with Roswell and then go and find Laurie's aunt and uncle. Would the army or the FBI go that far?

xmag

Posting some pretty by Clod81 for the thread:

ashleyt

Aww pretty I love that scene from Wipeout!

xmag

Me too. Michael had been so scared that something had happened to Maria.

ashleyt

That's why he didn't want a good-bye, he couldn't think about her not being around
