LOL, but it also reminds me of the album art for Millennium, which is still one of my favorite Bsb photoshoots. Though when I looked back at which element you chose for which guy, it made me think more of the Incomplete video... Brian with water, Nick with fire, etc., as opposed to Brian = air, Nick = water, Howie = fire, etc. Is that where you got the idea?
The elements have been connected to fantasy since ancient Greek and Roman times, when they believed there was a god who controlled each of them, so it makes sense. It's a classic idea. I wouldn't throw it out just because it's been done before. You can always take an old idea and make it new again, especially in this fandom when so few stories like that are being written currently.

yup, i based their powers on the elements they were paired with from the Incomplete video. i just thought it fit better than the Millennium one. But the story itself actually came from a dream i had with AJ and Nick. In my dream, they had these special powers and me and this girl, who was my best friend in my dream, were running away from some evil dude LOL and the two of them ended up helping us. HAHA Captain Planet rocks! (but seriously, if i wrote my story in that way it would be totally corny and cheesy and i'd rather not have the cheese :D) Exactly on the Greek and Roman fantasy thing. i've always loved Greek mythology so i sort of wanted to incorporate that in my story, so thanks. :)

is that the one where their "father" drugged his wife and when she had the Boys they had powers, as part of an experiment? if it is, i loved that story :) or is it the Pixcadia one? i like that one too :)
