"When you see him move you'll want to fuck him. Everyone does." <33333

ERM. CAN THIS, LIKE, GET COMMISSIONED NOW PLEASE. IMMEDIATELY.

"a silence in which Sal's body language approximates growling"

"I don't know, you guys, I just want Karen Gillan and Jamie Bell to be incestuous magical beings" I NEVER KNEW I DID TOO UNTIL YOU JUST SAID IT

Bwahaha thank you I'm so happy you bothered to read my rambling meme answer :) And glad you enjoyed some of the ideas therein! Karen and Jamie should definitely be in something together, they are both so fierce it'd be amazing.

Do you want a cast?

*squee!*

I would watch this show. Queerness and supernatural beings and it all makes the Manic Pixie Dream Girl in me dance around a lot.

Give me a cast?

Thank you, I would watch it too (but only if somebody else had sorted out my jumbled ideas into something resembling a plot/structure first, haha)!

Aha, I'd never heard of Manic Pixie Dream Girl as a thing but I googled it and it is so a thing. I hadn't realised how much of a trope that was, nor how many of the books I loved growing up feature Manic Pixie Dream Boys... >.>

(2) Lenora Crichlow

(6) Idris Elba

Can't guarantee I'll actually come up with anything, BUT THIS IS THE BEST CHALLENGE EVER. GIMME ACTORS!

(3) Gareth David-Lloyd

(5) Naoko Mori
(6) Lauren Lopez

:D It was überfun, and then stressful when I realised that my ideas didn't actually make much sense, then überfun again when I stopped caring and embraced the madness of my imaginary TV show. I hope you enjoy!

I wish you could have seen my reaction. I was all "but Gareth, Naoko and Bryan have already done a show together" and then BAM! KARL KENNEDY!

Darn, I forgot Bryan was in Torchwood! Sorry about that, it was only meant to be 2 TW people. But Karl Kennedy has definitely never been in TW, nor has girl!Malfoy ;)

THIS IS AMAZING YOU ARE AMAZING ERTGFDSFG

When I was reading through this post I was getting some serious incest vibes so when I got to the end I was glad to see it wasn't my imagination working overtime, haha. I love this whole thing so much (SEAN BEAN OH YESSS) and I really like your description of Zooey Deschanel's character, she sounds very interesting!

In conclusion, you are a genius! I wish this show was real!

Thank youuuu <3 YES I am so happy I'm not alone in thinking that incestuous Jamie/Karen would be kind of amazing. And yay Sean Bean and timelocked German Zooey!

Do you want a cast, darling?

Oooh, yes please! I'll definitely give it a try, although I'm sure I won't be able to measure up to your wonderful idea!
