I always get into cancelled shows. I've been meaning for awhile to watch Legend of the Seeker because I read the book series awhile ago and enjoyed it a fair amount (especially the bits about evil manifest chickens) but just never got into it. I've just finished watching all of the current episodes and now I want to write fanfic. lol. I'm so fucking fickle about this shit. I ship the tragically doomed and awesome background relationship of Cara/Dahlia.



I know the main femslash ship is Cara/Kahlan for this fandom and I get why it is, they are cute as hell and have the chemistry but it's hard to get around Kahlan and Richard's epic love (which is so sweet, imho) and Kahlan killing Cara with her confessor powers if she has an awesome orgasm during sex with Cara and really, who wouldn't?

I'm not writing anything until the season/series finale but I do want to do some sort of one shot fanfic for Cara and Dahlia and their past together during the Mord'Sith training which would bring back ultra fun Triana and Denna. Yay on that. Seriously though, why do all the good shows get cancelled before their time? It's like a rule.

Only way I could think of writing Cara and Kahlan fanfic would be to employ that potion Gellar created or something that would make Cara immune to confession. Kahlan already has feelings for Cara and vice versa and I think being about to have non-killing-slave-making sexytimes with Cara would push her ahead of Richard in the affections race plus the whole, she loves Richard but she doesn't have the same passion for him as she does Cara. Who knows though. I'm more into the whole history between Dahlia and Cara because their love is fucked up and tragic.

Also? These videos are fucking awesome.

Well, it's a huge backstory they've established in one little episode. Cara and Dahlia are both from Stocroft, they grew up together, then they got captured by Nathair at the same time and were trained together by the Mord'Sith.

By the time Cara leaves the Mord'Sith to travel with Richard they've probably spent 20+ years together and that's a gigantic wealth of history. There are so many stories to tell in that time period, countless really. Plus all the AU stories people could go with saying that Dahlia didn't turn on Cara and traveled with her and the others instead. Or what if they ran away from the Mord'Sith and raised her kid with Darken Rahl together.
