I have finally started on my auction vids and, oh my god, what has ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
sweetestdrain done to me? I don't know whether to buy her a fruit basket or smack her.
See, I knew that Cameron/Ferris/Sloane was one of my proto-OT3s, however I did not realize just how much of an impact it had on my later shipping choices. I mean, Ferris Bueller is a movie I enjoyed a lot as a teen, but not one I revisited very often after or thought of as having any kind of lasting emotional effect on me. I was wrong.
Rewatching and then vidding it for OT3 purposes has opened the emotional floodgates and suddenly my inner teenager is, like, dancing around the room throwing glitter and making high pitched squealy noises and grabbing everyone who comes near to tell them the very important information that these three LOVE EACH OTHER VERY MUCH, OKAY? I just want them to get three way married and have adorably super confident but sometimes hypochondriac babies.
Did I spend my morning searching AO3 for OT3 fic for them? Yes, yes I did. Of which there actually is some, which surprised me. Though it shouldn't have. On account of HOW MUCH THEY LOVE EACH OTHER.
*FLAIL*

Truer words have never been spoken. Nothing less is acceptable. They just...*flails around in sparkly hearts*
And...it's odd. I actually always kind of kept Ferris separate from the rest of the Hughes ouvre in my head, because the other movies are so much about teenage alienation and not fitting in or being popular. And yet, the thing is that Ferris is such a weird kid. What makes him popular isn't that he's 'cool' by standard high school definitions. It's that he's completely embraced the fact that he's not. I think it actually fits better than I remember, 'cause the concluding message of the rest is not to try to fit in other people's boxes. Ferris just...starts from that place, hee.
