Slashy Vid In Progress Needs You!

[andraste]

All right, so feeling all inspired by my VividCon disks, I've started planning out a multifandom slash vid I've had in mind for a while now. But I need more source!

So, I ask you, what are your favourite slashy moments in your favourite TV shows and movies? And when I say 'slashy' I mean things that even clueless fanboys look at and say 'dude, that is pretty gay!' Perfect example: the 'buddy breathing' in due South. I especially need femslash moments, because I am much less good at spotting/remembering those compared with teh boyslash.

(lokisrose, that scene I couldn't find yesterday? Has been staring right at me from a show we watch. I am an idiot for not thinking of it sooner.)

It's been a long time since I've watched things with actors as opposed to drawings.

There's Rodney collapsing onto John's bed (and John's arms) with candles everywhere in the SGA episode 'The Tao of Rodney'. At least I think it's that one, it's a scene I've only ever seen vidded, not the original source.

As much as I think there ought to be something you could use out of 'House', I'm not sure if that wouldn't be more slashy in the dialogue than the action, and thus, not useful for your purposes.

As for femmeslash, I can't think of anything aside from Joss Whedon shows, but I think female characters get to have homosocial interactions much less often than male characters. But, again, I don't watch much that isn't drawn these days.

Femmeslash moments that immediately come to mind: Buffy and Faith dancing in "Bad Girls", season 3 (can't go wrong with the classics), Sydney and Anna duking it out in the blouse shop in season 4 (even though Syd strikes me as essentially straight, that one really brings on the not so sub text).

And while we're talking Alias: must mention the Arvin takes a bullet for Jack moment from season 3's breakdown as well as their season 4 conversation in the men's room.*g*

Londo/G'Kar: what isn't? Well, The Best Scene Ever comes immediately to mind, followed by their prison cell stuff.

More entries to come.

Well, if you're looking for femmeslash, there's obvious Farscape examples: Chiana and Jool dancing in "Scratch'n'Sniff," or Chiana coming onto first the spider chick and then Aeryn in "Twice Shy."

Are you going all live-action?

Also, if you want something totally obscure, GGBG includes Marcus Graham being hit on by a famous Australian actor (although I can't for the life of me remember which one XD ) in an all-male sauna. I can't remember which ep it is, though; would have to look it up. I don't know how well it would translate to vidding, though; IIRC, most of it was verbal. :/

I'll have to get back to you on f/f; FS was the only one that sprang to mind, and that's already been mentioned. I think Six Feet Under might've had a little, but it's been so long that I can't remember.

It's funny: people always complain about how men objectify lesbians, and yet it's difficult finding f/f material.

The personal space invasion scene (http://www.sundive.co.uk/lifeonmars/images/ep2/Image17.jpg) from Life on Mars, or the swimming trunks, or the one where Gene walks in to find Sam handcuffed naked to the bed.

Pretty much the entire run of Torchwood, though I don't know if that even counts.

I'm sure someone else will list all the Petrellicest moments, so I'm going to go for Mohinder/Peter:

- The reunion at the end of 5 Years Gone: "Mohinder." "Peter?!" With the staring ZOMG.

- The eyesex during the Peter/Sylar fight in 0.07%, followed by Mohinder's panic at Peter's death.

- The eyesex in the rearview mirror in the pilot. If you can get hold of the extended, unaired version of the pilot, there is a *lot* more staring from Mohinder when Peter gets out of the cab and walks away.

Okaaay, femslash...

B5 - the scene in Susan's quarters the morning after in Divided Loyalties, the one at the bar in Midnight, or them sitting down in Race. There's also the Susan/Delenn hairdressing in Soul Mates and the hug in SiL if you want some variety.

Trek - Odan kissing Beverly's wrist in The Host, or the Jadzia/other Trill I can't remember kiss in Rejoined. Or you know, any time Janeway looks at Seven: particularly Janeway fixing Seven's implant in one episode or Seven pinning on Janeway's pips in another. Or the shuttle scene in The Voyager Conspiracy. Or the mother of all uber scenes, dyke!Janeway and Seven in The Killing Game.

BtVS - someone alread said Buffy and Faith dancing in season 3. Faith kissing Buffy, which is also season three. Obviously, anything Willow/Tara or Willow/Kennedy is a good choice.

Xena - pretty much anything, especially the kisses in The Quest, The Ring trilogy, A Family Affair, A Friend In Need (and others I can't remember) or the other uber subtexty scenes: hand holding in One Against An Army , dancing in Heart of Darkness, anything you care to choose from When Fates Collide, the cave scene from The Abyss, the birthday poem from Many Happy Returns, or you know, I could go on. ;)

Mmmmm... well...

~Jack and Will sitting thigh-to-thigh in POTC despite the fact there is about a spare meter of space on the rowboats bench.

~Every Hiro/Ando hug evar!

~House and Wilson's drugging each other in "Resignation"

^_^o I think I have odd ideas but I hope they help!

Really? Which fandom? *guesses wildly in the dark* :)

Firefly, Inara and her female client. Didn't Saffron use her lipstick of doom on the female crew, too? Inara and Nandi may have been slashy, though I can't recall the particulars.

Dark Angel's canonical lesbian, Original Cindy. She and Max did the sexy bad girl look together early in the first season, and OC had a background relationship in the first season, and a full ep devoted to her ex-girlfriend in the second (?)

Brigitte and Ginger of Ginger Snaps have lots of slashy moments (Brigitte straddling Ginger as she pierces her bellybutton; Ginger during the "we're hardly even related anymore" speech.)

I'm sure Rose and Martha both had a few small momets with guest characters.

I don't know that there's a good sourch of quality video, but Big Wolf on Campus is slashy as all hell. See the first season, second episode for m/m neck biting.

Old School Who:

Drag!Three whacking Mike with his duster in Green Death.
The Master prowling around the frozen Doctor and almost touching him in the final ep of Keeper of Traken.

From new BSG: pretty much the entirety of the episode "Scar" is Starbuck and Kat having your classic macho one-upmanship match, which secretly hides the fact that they wanna get in each other's pants. I remember lots of "in your face" scenes where they are both sweaty and mussed and breathing heavily.

Also, I remember some unusually strong Reyes/Scully vibes in X-Files seasons 8 & 9, but I honestly couldn't point you toward any specific moments. Same with Dana and Natalie from SportsNight.

And then of course there's Wonderfalls, which has an episode devoted to Jaye's stalker, who subsequently tries to take over her life. That was slashy in places; although of course Wonderfalls also has my favorite canon lesbian, Sharon Tyler.

The 2006 BBC Robin Hood had scenes like this where things like this get said - Much: Master, no. You cannot go back in there. If you go back in and die, then I will die. Of grief. So you must come now, if only to save me.
Robin: See, that is why I love you.

And basically Much's face any time Robin is threatened with anything. There's a reason why everyone I watch it with wants to retitle it 'The Many Adventures of Much'.

On the femme-slash front there's the weaving scene with Servilla and Octavia from the first season of Rome.

Joining the Heroes party, the scene where Claude hides Peter from Mohinder and Nathan (see icon) has always been my favorite "Um, guys? Guys?" moment for them. I also found the stick fighting in Unexpected to be full of subtexty goodness, as is the Car Ride of Doom in Company Man (Claude's body language in that scene, especially).

Is no one going to mention Smallville? Hourglass, Zero, Jitter, and Heat are always my favorite slash sources there; the long stare in Hourglass and Clark's look of dejection when Lex walks by him in Heat are always gold.

Tombstone is pure slash. The two bedside scenes, Wyatt holding Doc when he collapses outside Hooker's ranch, the aftermath of the duel with Ringo, take your pick.:)
