Come to think of it, as much as I love staring at Johnny and Orlando, I don't think I'd want to live with either one of them. Johnny strikes me as high-maintenance, and ... well, so does Orlando. Not as much as Johnny, but approaching it. I don't have the energy to keep myself up AND one of those, as well. Or look good on either arm.
It takes a while for inspiration from DMC to settle in, yes. It's coming in trickles, and still isn't completely there, but there IS good stuff to be gleaned from it. I think the main problem is that everyone had padded out their own fanon to a degree that what happened in the second one pretty much ripped chunks of it away. (Except for the J/E people, and do not get me started on that ill-conceived plot device. I don't begrudge anyone their pairing, but I am allowed my own opinion.)
