Audrey, every time I see you POST the countdown I get all giddy!

Edited because my brain is fried.

Beautiful start on the thread Sarah! Really loverly. Kudos to Julie for inspiring the thread title. Now that Mark knows we've been wondering about the bracelet, maybe it will show up in a future episode. And how much do I love that man for such amazing answers; he takes such care and makes them so personal.

Sarah I like your idea about a new banner for season two, I've actually been thinking that myself. Maybe our talented banner makers could submit some samples and we could vote on them? Or would you rather wait til we at least get the season premiere so we can get some newer pictures? What does everyone think?

Farah, I am doing the chat questions, people just PM or email them to me and actually they are just put in the order I receive them. I just happens that alot of them are from NH fans, but we are starting to see some variety. He has requested that we limit each chat to 10 questions, so the next two are already full and I'm working on #5.

As a reminder, to submit a question for the Mark Schwahn chats, PM or email to me so that I can put them all in one post. This keeps things organized and makes it easier for Mr. Schwahn.

I really enjoyed reading Mark's answers. I find it so incredibly wonderful that the man takes time out of his schedule for his fans. How funny would it be if the bracelet actually did show up again, and we knew it was because of us? I wish someone would have brought up the negligee!!!! But I think it would be awesome if we suggested something, and then found it in a later episode. We could say "Oh yeah, Mark did that because we told him to!"

they showed a promo of the cracker jacker bracelet? :look:

Audrey I am on the west coast and seeing you post the countdown makes me gleefull!!

Tammy thanks for keeping everything so organized for Mark, that's great that you do that.

I was remiss before, I meant to say a big *welcome* to Maggie! Girl, you were a lurker for how long? Glad you finally came into the light and joined us. Post often so we can get to know you.

Also I'd like to encourage everyone to post in the Let's Get to Know Each Other at the top of the first page, at least read it so you can get to know each of your moderators and how to get in touch with us if you need anything!

Sarah-You may want to edit the art Rach made out of the thread opening because it's so big. If you make a link and thumbnail, that would be great. Some people have dial up and it also streches out the screen.

Feel free to use the thumbnail I already made for it - it's in the Fan-art thread!

Edit: My apologies if it streches out the screen/too long to load, it's supposed to be a wallpaper

Edit2: Here's the thumbnail

Great start on the thread Sarah. I have a little request though, under the obligatory lists and reasons gifs, could you make a little side note that says [To be added to the list please PM Vilandra-N-Kivar-Lover.] Thanks.:)

Wow, I just love Mark, there really aren't words for how much I appreciate him. All his answers we're just so thought out and detailed, I love that. Love all the talk about Joie and James, and the JLs together. I don't know why but his comment about James saying he could just stand under the sprinkler system made me smile, James is such a cutie pie. I could go on and on, but I'll just stop here and once again say I feel lucky to be a fan of this show.

Oh and Tammy expect a PM from me soon.

Eee! Premiere is almost here! Premiere is almost here!

So yeah...:)

Whitney

A couple of threads ago, Whitney asked what scene people would like to see happen between Nathan and Haley. And I've been thinking about this, so I'm posting mine. Sorry, I have five.

1. I agree with Whitney. I want a slow dance between them. Please Mark, please!! I've wanted a dance between them ever since they first strated going out. :sigh: how pretty would they look.

2. Do you guys remember in the finale the hug between Lucas and Haley? The one where they were in the cemetery, and because Joie is so much shorter than Chad (and James) Chad's whole entire head is ontop of Joie's. I want that hug to occur between Nathan and Haley. Here's a picture if you have no idea what I'm talking about. If anyone's ever watched ER, I think a hug similar to the LH one happened between Carter and Abby. I was just looking at my avi, and that's kind of similar to this scene, just as a hug instead of a kiss. (Although I do love the kiss as well, LOL)

Except I want Haley's arms around Nathan's not scrunched up to the side like that. I know, I know, I'm picky, bear with me, I've thought about this for quite a while.

3. This one is similar to my last "scene." Another thing I really want to see is Nathan's arm around Haley's waist, kind of looped around, and her back against his chest. If anyone has ever listened to "Just Friends" by Gavin Degraw, the one line "Girl, your body fits me like a glove," is where I got this idea. I think that that would be absolutely adorable. I don't know if you guys will be able to understand this one. I just have this sort of image in my head, and I'm trying to describe it as well as I can.

4. Also, if Haley ever got drunk or she's sick or something, I would love for Nathan to tuck her in.

Oh and Amy this has been on my mind forever, and I'm not sure, but was your old sn catchmenow? Sorry, I'm so completely random it's not even funny.

Since we're talking about the bracelet... I thought I'd bring back some old, old school art, and I mean old.
