Oy, I'm all a-tingle with the possibilities. If the two of us were to attempt to fill the void, it would take the rest of our lives. Not a bad pursuit, though. Few writers have as much backstory and history as Montgomery does, and yet the fandom, such as it is, totally ignores it. Also, Dean is a canon bookworm. Which is just awesome. (I do, of course, subscrive to fanon!bookworm!Remus, but it isn't the same as if it were actual set-in-stone Rowlingness.) I'm just disappointed because he's a bit too early to be into Eliot. Dean would love Eliot. (Emily would probably like Edna St. Vincent Millay rather a lot, too. I suppose one could reasonably write Emily-as-writer-in-the-twenties + Millay fic, and I suppose one could even write rather!older!Dean + Eliot fic, but the latter wouldn't be quite as interesting as canon-timeline!Dean + Eliot.)
D'you have a gun? I've got a knife; don't know how well it'll work. :D *goes in search of reader-people to bother* Oh plagues, mind, stop coming up with crack-ships. No, just stop. The mental image of very rabid and devoted Emily/Andrew shippers was bad enough.
(And I am now wanting to write Emily fic so badly but haven't any idea where to begin; there's too much to say and no-one who's said it before. Rather scary, actually. But fun.)
Oh, yes, and I have been meaning to reply to your last message on the Dean mix. Yay. By the by, what does it signify that the first thing I read in 2007 was the bit in Emily of New Moon in which we first meet Dean? (It wasn't on purpose, either, I swear.)
