McCain x Lucy

Comment ID #54909

Lucy doesn’t have many friends who are just friends for WANTING to be just friends.

You know who would be really cool, though? McCain.

He points out logic, but doesn’t judge. He’s not trying to manipulate anybody. He’s just there, doing his own thing, independent. He doesn’t MIND going into the background. In fact, I think I kind of respect him the most, for that.

I wonder, has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

(OMG TROLLED x_x)
(okay, now lets ask the REAL question)

I wonder, has anyone else ever pondered a Lucy and Alec story? Thinking about what circumstance could lead to them having to interact in a positive light is quite enjoyable. Of course I wouldn’t want to settle for a set of circumstance that is too contrived…

Maybe if one of his planted interjections scored a critical in a helpful way? … I think I could see that. Lucy has a lot to digest, and sometimes an injection of rationality is what you need the most. I think they’d all do a lot better if they actually listened to Alec a little more. It would be funny if he said something, and she turns around and says “SHU… … oh. Oh wow. I… …crap, He’s right.”

The reason I’m even considering this is because McCain sounds like the kind of guy to acknowledge Lucy’s obvious attractiveness while not letting it get to him. He’s mature enough to appreciate her other qualities, like her love of her pets, her physical prowess in sports and defense, and her strong sense of honor and personal accountability. I think he’d be no-nonsense enough to soak the damage of her paranoid rebukes and accusations that he’s trying to manipulate, which he obviously so wouldn’t be.

I’m not saying there should be any kind of romance. In fact, it would be cute if lucy’s latch mechanism started to trigger, and McCain stabilized her on a friend basis. Bonus points for Jealous Suedrama. Bonus Bonus points if there is IMPLIED drama from sue, but it turns out she’s actually feeling understanding and supportive about the whole thing, making everybody go “WTF O_o”

… what are the qualifications for a guest artist to do a guest arc?

I guess I just see too much of myself in McCain. I’ve always been a fan of rationality.

Interesting thought, but over-analyzed and a tad too silly. I don’t think it will fly, but I have been surprised before (not often).


As Jerk and Kaxbe have/would say:
meh

McCain masturbates to his encyclopedia set.

He doesn’t even open them. He just looks at them.

HE LOVES KNOWLEDGE AND NO ONE ELSE

AugustusxLucy spawn implies a terrible backstory, like the word Half-Orc.

Cause in BCB, cat-dog hybrids aren’t possible yet.
So would the love child wear a sleeveless jacket and a bowtie?

“You’ve got to be kidding me. I’ve been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It’s just common sense.”
I totally copy-pasted that.

Anyways,
I can’t say I support McCain x Lucy, because if the love hypercube gets anymore complex, I will probably explode.

LucyxAugustus would involve alot of blackmail, physical torture and mental pain.

I hope Augustus is up to it.

@Radial: The blackmail and the torture would be from Lucy to August, right?

@ Taysh: Oh gee, I dunno, maybe it has to do with the fact that she’s freaking a-god-damned-dorable when she’s crushing on someone. But yeah, you have a point. It’ll be better for her if she can get used to “being on her own” before that happens again anytime soon. (Which is why I liked the end of “Cracks in the Ice” so much.)
