Wow, we all finally got here. 200 threads! I remember when I was a newbie here and I got so inspired to love Rory/Tristan even more thanks to the amazing people I found on this thread. It feels like ages ago, but it wasn't. I know some people on here has been following this thread and this couple since the very first thread, unfortunately some of these people don't visit this thread anymore. Though, just know that it's never too late to love Trory or start loving them again!


Maybe Duncan and Bowman aren't the best people to be hanging out with.
They are not as smart as you Tristan, they don't have what you have going for you...


If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
Of course they would get married...

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
I think they will be good friends at the beginning...and maybe they will take their chance...

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
Happy married couple, successful in their jobs with about 3 children..

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
I love them, because he has a badguy touch...and she is the girl next door...
~ July



If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
I'd like to see them as really good friends... That's really something I'd enjoy.. Rory having a friendship with a guy that will actually last

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
Just a friendship, that's all I want.. just good conversations, showing support that kind of thing

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
Uhm... Let me think, I think they'll be friends, nothing more, but supportive of each other and wanting the other to be happy

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
The love/hate relationship they had, sometimes I love the love/hate relationship some people have on a show and that's why I liked them... They had nice playful (in a non-dirty way) banter and had good conversations
~ Karen



If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show? I would like to see them become friends first, with a little flirtyness and the flirtyness turns into lust and lust turns into Love I feel that this would impact the show in a positive way, because the chemistry between them would sizzle on screen!

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress? Again, I say that they would be friends first, I probably imagine he'll greet her by saying Mary and then they'll relationship will grow.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now? Married with two kids and a volvo? Lmao!

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
Well, they were the first Rory couple I liked as I hated Dean, I remember watching The break up part 2 and shouting at Rory for running away and that she liked Tristan not Dean lmao!
~ Kaylee



If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?Taking things slow, becoming really good friends first, confiding in each other, comfortable with each other. They should have the chemistry they had in season 1, but ofcourse with more mature and deep conversations. They would get together eventually, after a build up.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now? Well, i think Tristan will be more mature, a little more serious, but still sarcastic. Rory, pretty much how she has always been, serious at times, funny and sarcastic at times. Not as annoyed at Tristan as she used to be!

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
They had great chemistry. The good girl/bad boy thing just works, and you can get so much from it. Their constant banter was so cute, and when they became friends, he was a little more open with her.
~ Nida



If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
Tristan coming back is not something I think that'll happen, but it'll be great. Tristan and Rory do have great chemistry and an addicting banter I just love. It would be great if they would become friends..or more..it doesn't really matter, as long as he brings us a visit.

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them? Tristan and Rory had great chemistry, banter, debates, they pulled each other. They didn't really get each other until Madeline's party, that's where they really 'saw' each other.
~ Nina



If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress? I see them meeting at Yale or somewhere and they keep bumping into eachother (non-dirty) and they kind of ignore eachother.. but then find themselves in an awkward situation.. then realise they love eachother. (This is the reason I don't write fics lmao)

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
I think they would be still together

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
The way that they were always so different.. but kind of attracted eachother.
~ Amanda


It was a nice kiss.
Yeah?
Not at all crying material.
Wanna try it again?



If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
I think that if Tristan came back to the show, it would be like for a Chilton-type reunion. That's the only reason I see a purpose for him coming back at the moment. I could see Rory trying to still be appalled by him, but in realization, she admires the fact that he's reformed and there's actually more to him that meets the eye. We can only hope for a full-hide-in-the-closet-make-out-session from them.

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
I would like to see them being study partners or something like that and a friendship blooming from it.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now? I think that Rory will be Christine Amanpour and Tristian will be this General in the Military. I'm really not sure what Tristian would actually be doing, but it will be great.

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
What attracted me to them was their instant and undeniable attraction. You can not hide that, no matter how hard she fought against it.
~ Jill-Renay


Take care of yourself... Mary.


If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?

I'd like to see him come back in a similar way Jess did and slowly get to know her again and maybe win her off who ever she is dating/seeing at the time. Maybe they could be dating by the end of the series.
~ Laura


"Well, come on, you know that when we kiss on stage, it's gonna be pretty obvious that it's not the first time. I'm a good actor, but I can't hide that kind of passion."



If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
If he came back right now I could definitely see him stirring up trouble with Logan and Rory which would be very interesting. I think that if he had never met Logan and his friends Logan wouldn’t like him and visa versa. I don’t think he would support Rory/Logan and I think he would feel frustrated and hurt that she would go for someone who is a lot like he was in high school but she never gave him a chance.

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
Well obviously I would like them to get together and have a happy relationship but I wouldn’t want them to get there quickly. Rory is with Logan and I would need her to sort through whatever feelings are there with him before she moved on to Tristan who is of course her one and only. Hee. So the progression would be slow and I think it needs to be that way.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
Hmm well in mind they will have steady jobs and lots of babies with their friends around them married with babies. Logan/Louise; Finn/Paris; Colin/Steph and Madeline/Robert. Ok fic is obviously influencing my brain lol. Either way I want them happy and with each other. I really think they are meant to be and that Jess or Logan could never compare.

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
Well I loved that fact that Tristan wanted her so bad and she kept throwing it back at him. I liked the chase. I love Tristan’s character, so troubled and unloved. I never felt sorry for Rory at all but I always felt sorry for Tristan. And I liked that Rory just didn’t understand it, she didn’t understand that he wanted her. I loved that towards the end she was content with their relationship and she could laugh about the nickname that he gave her. They were just perfect.
~ Mel


Uh huh. Well, okay, I'll confess something to you. I don't have a date.
Well, I hear Squeaky Fromme's up for parole soon. You should keep a good thought,
I actually thought maybe you'd like to go with me,
You did no,
I did too!
You did not, because you are not stupid.
Why, thank you.


If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show? What I would love to see at first, is a Tristan/Rory friendship. Then gradually a relationship. I want Rory to be the one to make the first move. She should be the one to realize that Tristan is a great guy and hes the one shes suppose to be with. I don't think there would be a big impact on the show. Hopefully Logan can see that Tristan is an amazing guy for Rory and leave them be.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now? I could see them living a great life and having beautiful children. I think Amy's (abc79de) WHW series best explains their relationship for the furture.

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them? I have to admit that at first I never liked Trory. I was, and still am, an avid Lit fan and when I started reading fics I noticed there were tons of Trory fics. I read one and I was in awe.The way the writers portray them is remarkable.Each writer puts his or hers on touch into making them perfect. When I rewatched the first season, I noticed the chemistry between them. It is amazing.They have so much sexual tension. They balance each other out. They have this amzing ablity to read the other person like no one ever did. They both have individual faults and when they are together - they are perfect. In my opinon, they are soulmates 'til death do them part.
~ Ali


I could loan you my notes, if that would help?
Really? That would be great.
Yeah, how great?
I don't know. Mr. Remmy said that getting someone's notes would be..
I could even help you study, if you want?




If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
If Tristan were to come back, I think he and Rory would have alot to talk about. He would definitely ask her what's happened since the last time they saw each other. He'd be impressed that she's at Yale, impressed but not surprised. I think it would really shake things up if he did come back. It would bring back the whole triangle thing from season 2/3 with her, Jess and Dean, except now it would be with Logan.

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
I think at first, I'd want them to be friends. And then eventually progress into one liking the other, them just trying to deal with their feelings for each other. I also see alot of bantering and a bit of arguing between them.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
I have no clue what type of job I'd see Tristan in, but I know that Rory would definitely be a journalist. I think they would be a more mature version of themselves. Especially Tristan, but he would still have that school boy charm going for him. Rory wouldn't be so uptight, but she'd still be very Rory. I don't know, I can't explain it. But, that's how I picture them.

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
I love Tristan/Rory because their banter was so cute and entertaining. He liked her, but she didn't realize it, so he pursued her. I also liked how he seemed different around her. Oddly enough, I wasn't a Tristan/Rory fan when I first started watching Gilmore Girls. I liked Dean/Rory, but when they broke up in season 1, I always believed that Rory still should've dated Tristan during that time.lols. What attracted me to them was just their attitude towards each other. He was a little softer around her, and she was a little bit biting towards him, at first, which was fun. I always thought their goodbye was a little sad, but left something open for the future.
~ Leah



You know what Mary, [stopping her] see I can’t figure out why we’re not friends. I think it’s because I make you nervous.
I think it’s because you can’t learn my name.
Do you have a boyfriend?
None of your business.
Is that a ‘no’?
Is there no one else at this school you can bother?
See, I think you like me, you just don’t know how to say it.



If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
I think he could come back as new student at Yale, that way Rory could meet him and become friends with him again.

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
Camilla and I have had long discussions about that. We both agreed that Rory and Tristan would probably become friends. In my opinion Logan would get jealous then because he would definitely see the attraction between the two of them. Rory's and Tristan's friendship would get more intimate, there could definitely start something between them then.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
Married, maybe?

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
Alexis's and Chad's chemistry was a big reason I began loving them. Tristan acted very differently and more kinder around Rory than he acted around other people. You could see that he really cared for her. He tried to hide it his attraction to her, just like Rory tried to hide hers but everyone could still see that they liked each other, even Dean did.
~ Lena



So where’s your boyfriend tonight?
He’s...not my boyfriend anymore.
Why not?
He didn’t want to be.
Idiot.
So’s Summer.



If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?
If Tristan were to come back, I can see them as being friends first and maybe possibly progressing to more than friends, to have a relationship and be together and the impact on the show, I would say, if they acutually hooked up that it would be like Rory falling for someone her grandparents acutually like and living their dream.

If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress? If Tristan came back, I would love to see them have a relationship, because there's never really got started, I would like for them to date, get married, have children. In the beginning, I think Rory would be kind of distant at first, but Tristan would be persistant, until she talked to him, they would slowly become friends and it would move to dating, marriage and children.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
Hopefully they would be married and have children, but I can see Rory as being a journalist for the NY Times and Tristan as being a reporter, they would have 4 kids, twins Lori and Luke, a girl and another boy, so it's even. They would live in a moderate size house, with a backyard and a white picket fence, in a nice neighborhood and they would have a dog. They would be the picture perfect family, sure they would fight, but in the end, love would survive and there love would be a kind of love that just attracts people, just by looking at them you can see how much they loved each other.

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
I love Tristan and Rory, because they just have this love/hate relationship, I'm strangely attracted to that, which is why I'm also a huge Karen/Dan fan too, but there is just something about Trory, you can't help but love, they have chemistry. I would have to say my main reason for being attracted to them was because they had chemistry and I couldn't stand Dean/Rory, but quickly it became more than that, I could see their connection and only recently, a couple of months ago, have they come back into my mind, thanks to Cami, and rewatching season 1 and their kiss scene, they quickly became a favorite of mine again.
~ Gracie



Well, I imagine you're overwhelmed with the relief in knowing that soon I will be gone.
I'm so sorry.
Well, I'm a big boy. I can handle it.
There's nothing you can…


If Tristan were to come back what do you see happening with the two of them and how would it impact the show?I could definitely see a friendship being formed. I would think that would be the beginning of a beautiful relationship. They have to connect first and start with getting to know each other again, but in the end... yes they would be the perfect match.


If Tristan came back what would you like to happen between Rory and him? How would you picture them handling the situation and how would things progress?
Since I’m pretty sure Rory will end up with either Logan or Jess in the end, I’d say they would be friends first and accidentally fall for each other. Their connection has always been strong, and I know that Rory understands Tristan in a way nobody else managed to.

What do you think Tristan and Rory would be like ten years from now?
They will be happily married with a girl and a younger boy. Such a cute family, don’t you think?

Why do you love Tristan/Rory? What attracted you to them?
I admit, I have only been a Trory fan for around 2 years, which makes me a newbie I guess? I wasn’t a fan of Gilmore Girls until I found my way to Cathy’s amazing site Angelic. Not only did the clips inspire me, but her musicvideos really got my attention. The chemistry between Rory/Tristan is undeniable. Nobody can say otherwise, because that would be lying. I also believe that opposites attract and they would fit so much better than most couples, and Tristan would be the best guy for Rory. I don’t think he’d hurt her, he’d love her for her flaws and for being herself.
~ Camilla

THE KISS!

2.
I gotta tell you something.
What?
I'm madly in love with you.
Good luck with that.
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I wake up in the middle of the night calling out your name - Rory Rory!

3.
Well, I was just trying to think of something that would make this kiss as special as that one.
Tristan.
I thought she could cry.
What?
Paris: She's dead. You're dead, lie down.
Yeah, but that's the beauty of it. No one would expect her to cry.
Dean: I would.





1.
No, I cried because I was confused. Because I hadn’t cried. I didn’t cry because of the kiss. It was a nice kiss.
Yeah?
Very nice. Not at all crying material.
Really?
Absolutely.
Wanna try it again?

2.
I'd kiss you goodbye... but your boyfriend's watching.
Take care of yourself... Mary!

3.
You're very odd, you know that?
Thank you.
Your welcome.

You have until the 248th thread to get your fics or videos into me ( Gracie).


The Rory/Tristan Fanfiction Challenge
So this challenge came up when we found out Rory was taking a road trip to North Carolina and how the whole time, we were thinking about Tristan and how it would have been a perfect time for them to meet again. So here's the challenge, write a one or two-shot fanfiction (for those who don't get it, it's a one or two chapter fanfiction, it makes it easier to do those then multi-chapter, at least for me) based around how you would have wanted Rory/Tristan to meet in "Gilmore Girls Only", it could be anything you want of how you would have wanted a meeting to go, what would Rory say, what about Tristan, would they get along, fight, etc..., it's up to you to decide where they meet and what happens between them. Again all fanfictions when complete please upload to fanfiction.net or a site, where it can be linked, it just makes it easier for me.
