this was originally done in 2006 in my journal of the time, lorrrbe, but it's relevant again because of picspammy's new challenge. and since these moments are still pretty much my favourites, i don't see why i shouldn't repost it! even though now that i think about, there's so many other scenes i'd like to add to this list. hmm, well, maybe i'll make a part two, who knows!

for the challenge 6 in picspammy.


( you know that i could use somebody )

I'm aware I've done a lot picspams lately. It's an addiction, really. This one is for the favourite person challenge in picspammy.



( I don't know if anyone will ever sit beside me on a plane again. )

I started this picspam a couple of months ago when there was a 'favourite couple' challenge at picspammy, but I only got around to finishing it now. So yay, Summer and Seth season 1 picspam, here you go!
