i have a specific finchel 1x1 plot in mind that i want to play out, if anyone would like to take me up on it. so it’s set about two years after the s6 flashforward, everything is canon, even finn’s death. rachel’s happily married to jesse, and she goes on a little spa break on her own to some small town somewhere. she’s wandering around some store or just walking down a street when she sees finn. it’s actually him, and not just another figment of her imagination like it has been before. it turns out he’s been in witness protection all this time, living a whole new life with a fake name and some fake backstory.

i just think it could be the most angsty thing ever like she’s furious at first, but she calms down when she realises he had no other choice. he’s heartbroken when he realises that she’s married and to jesse of all people. maybe they sleep together and she’s got to deal with all of the guilt of cheating, and she has to decide what to do next. there’s so many possibilities!

man i hate being one of those roleplayers who can’t just…. easily discard and pick up plots and characters. i have plots/dynamics that have been inactive for YEARS and will very likely never get picked up again that i still think about and miss. when i genuinely love a plot/pairing it’s forever you could come to me in 10 years asking if i’d still like to write them and i’d say yes. and i hate it sm makes me feel like an idiot.

ok so give me a plot where she’s 100% willing to use her sex appeal to get ahead. she knows most men will fall at her feet if she bats her eyelids so she uses it to get shit done and move ahead in her chosen field. she’s genuinely smart and talented, but she’s also terribly pragmatic and willing to exploit men’s tendency to let beauty sway them. she’s rather merciless in getting her way, but she has one major rule – she will NOT be the mistress. she may manipulate and sweet-talk a married man, but she respects the sanction of marriage and won’t let it go any further than that. 

so then she meets this guy who will be perfect to advance her career, and he says he can help her out in exchange for a date. she says sure, but makes sure he knows her one rule. (bonus points if the guy is like ridiculously enamored with her) so they start this relationship and it seems like everything’s going great – she’s getting what she wants, and they’re having fun together, and soon, it’s less like a business transaction and more like an actual relationship, and she’s even falling for him.

and then, naturally, she finds out he has a spouse he never mentioned.
