Thanks for the new thread Keri

Replying to your last post in the previous thread:

Yeah, it's totally ok about the title, I mean my aim was, the title to be a parallel from 4.16 and 2.22, but now that 4.16 was used before, it was a good idea to change it like this

And, don't worry about the vids, here I'm gonna repost them again (along with the "explanation"

):

Quote:

Ok, so I have tones of beautiful fan vids relevant to this epi (and season 2 as a whole, though of course they contain scenes from season 1 as well), because apparently the fandom exploded after this epi, lol (I guess same thing happened after 3.05 and 4.16 as well), there were many and I only could narrow it down to 8, lol, so I'll post 4 of them in this post and the other 4 in my next post.

The first one here is actually somewhat new and angsty, but it's really good. The next two have the same song and there are some similar parts in them but there are parts that I love in one more and other parts in the other I prefer, so I couldn't choose, lol. and the last one has Monde bits in it but it's really nice:

**kerbear28** · 08-10-2019, 06:11 PM

Hey my lovelies!

Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend.

Spoiler:

Ah, I guess since we were just discussing 2x22, I figured that was the quote you were referring to. I should I've realized you were thinking about the parallel.

The writers of this show have made their missteps, but they did provide us with so many lovely Frary parallels.

We did use the 4x16 quote for thread #336, but I'm still willing to change or adjust this thread's title if necessary.

Spoiler:

See, that would have been perfect. As annoying and cliché as an interruption like that would have been, at least it would have kept us from wondering what we missed out on. Once again... we really should have been on this writing team.

Spoiler:

I get that.

Given the history (and considering Mary's previous underwhelming apologies), it makes sense that your mind would go there.

Thanks for reposting the vids here!

They are so well done.

I love all of the song choices, but the song in the 2nd and 3rd vid really is so appropriate for them at this point in the story.

Following the Frary reunion in 2x22, the fandom was certainly inspired.

I can't wait to see the other 4 vids you discovered.

mina_lp · 08-11-2019, 02:28 AM

hope you you are having a great one too Keri

Spoiler:

Oh don't worry about it

It makes sense that considering discussing 2.22 you would think like that. I'd say it's fine just the way it is now

and yes, thankfully we have too many beautiful parallels with Frary

Spoiler:

You're welcome!

yeah I too love that song, not to mention it fit their situation so well at this point (as you said). Ok, here are the other 4

(btw, the fourth one has a unique style, especially when the music swells, until the end, it totally could be a promo/trailer of a movie or something, lol):

Warning: The last two contain a part of Mary's rape scene.

**kerbear28** · 08-11-2019, 02:35 PM

Those vids are all amazing.

Thanks, Mina!

bscgirl99 · 08-11-2019, 08:07 PM

TFTNT Keri. Love this title and line from Mary

.

Ugh, this is such a hard final round, but my vote goes to #17. I love both quotes so much, but 4 is my number one pick. That said, I'd be happy with either outcome.

mina_lp · 08-12-2019, 01:33 AM

You're welcome Keri

Ok, I too vote for 17, but just like Andrea, I'm fine with either one winning, so I'm willing to switch if it needs be.

And, I might not be able to post for a week or two, though I'm not sure if it goes that way, but if that will be the case I wanted to give a little "notification"

**kerbear28** · 08-12-2019, 06:36 PM

I'm going to have to go with #17, too. Like you ladies, though, I love both quotes and I would be absolutely thrilled with either winning.

Aw thanks for the "notification," Mina.

We definitely would have wondered what happened to you if you hadn't said something. We'll miss you if you're not able to post!

I'll wait to post the Season 3 Frary scenes for discussion until we're sure you're around.

#17 - 3 (Andrea, Mina, Keri)

A_shiningstar · 08-13-2019, 08:33 PM

I'll vote #17 also.

It has been forever since I've posted. I haven't been to fanforum in a long time, I essentially only come here for this board...but tonight I was coming to see about another fandom I'm fairly sure I could dive headfirst in very easily...Maybe. It all depends so much on the fan themselves...

I guess I'll check out the vibe in that fandom in a bit. But I couldn't come to

and not stop in here and check on my fraries....

Hope everyone is doing well.

bscgirl99 · 08-13-2019, 08:44 PM

Great to see you in here, Robin!

Hope you're doing well too

. And looking forward to seeing you back in here soon, Mina!

**kerbear28** · 08-13-2019, 09:37 PM

Robin!!!

So lovely to see you here, sweetie. Hope you're doing well, too.

If that other fandom here on

seems to be a good fit, I hope you'll come and check in us Fraries every once in a while.

And thanks for voting! Looks like we're in agreement so far. I'll leave the round up for another day or so to see if anyone else wants to get their vote in.

#17 - 4 (Andrea, Mina, Keri, Robin)

bscgirl99 · 08-16-2019, 07:42 PM

Have a great weekend, Fraries!

**kerbear28** · 08-16-2019, 09:46 PM

You too, Andrea!

Well I think I will declare the winner of the survivor now, so we can celebrate all weekend long.

DRUMROLL PLEASE....
