Why not J/W?

Who besides me thinks that AWE should've turned out J/W and taken advantage of all that lovely sexual tension between the boys throughout all three movies? (After all, that's the way the series really SHOULD have turned out. My God, look at the merchandise alone bearing J and W together for the past three and a half years.)

C'mon, ladies (are there any men? don't want to discriminate on my f-list). List in the comments all those moments J/W just *clicked* and made a great argument for them sailing off in to the sunset together. I expect everyone to have fun with this.

Obviously, spoilers within ...

ETA: Sort of random, but I have several old posts I need to reply to comments. I've been terribly lazy, working more than anything the past couple of weeks, but I hope to get to some of those tomorrow. *hands head*

(no subject)

So, having finished a story I'm not too sure about, trying to get cracking (you know, kraken? - oh, never mind) on another, and cranking out loads of articles at work once again, I'm still not entirely certain how I feel about the whole writing thing.

You'll rarely see me navel-gazing in this journal, unless it's someone else's navel or the product of their brain. Nor do I go on at length about my writing process; it is what it is. People who can separate theirs out, define it, read how-to technique books endlessly to employ - more power to them. I suck at learning from anything other than reading other people's writing. This might explain my lack of novel-publication thus far in life, or that award-winning Pulitzer article, but again - it is what it is, and I am what I am. I've been writing stories since I was 14, but my grandma swore she could remember it from when I was much younger, though I don't. Twenty-some-odd years of writing, and I'm trying to decide if I should stick with it as a career after almost as long. I don't really know of anything else to do, but I'm guessing there has to be a reason for the massive writer's block that has ruled my life for the past year or thereabouts (other than being tired from lack of thyroid hormone until lately). Some days I really like it and others, I feel like I've written everything of note that I'm going to produce in a lifetime. I have a couple of suspicions for what's caused some of this blockage, but I'll keep it to myself because it seems contributory rather than a primary cause.

Does anyone else who writes a lot feel like this? (And I don't mean to sound like a snob, but I'm referring to people in their 30s or older, which I know cuts out a great deal of my f-list. It's just that it's usually harder to get opinions on how people feel about writing after 20+ years from people who are in their 20s. That'd be some frighteningly precocious small children, there. *G*)
