Signs

Long story short: Datalounge has had a series of ongoing threads about Dom and Elijah since about June (with threads about Elijah dating back to at least March.) Around October, some new "insiders" started showing up, and we started getting the idea that the boys or someone close to them were reading and posting on the thread. There was a bit of back-and-forth in November laughing about the idea of them posting there and sending their supporters at DL a "shoutout" or two by wearing or doing something significant at upcoming public appearances, especially the premieres. the following is what came out of that. Most of us never took it seriously until they actually did show up at the Sims party wearing orange and yellow. Then we sat up and took notice.

The "colors" post:

Fuck 'em. The whacked bastards.
Ok, ok. Ties:
Orange? Are you sure?
red/green look for green for sure.
blue/grey
Maybe a tie with flames on it.
Burning, burning burning!
Who said a rainbow tie? fucking awful.
Yellow. And look for some leather.
 **Flowers on the lapel. Probably roses, but a flower is a flower is a  flower, right?
Red wine and champagne. DANCING dancing dancing.
And colored shoes? wtf? Chucks?
GREEN YELLOW RED. Like Christmas, only better.
Anything else your highnesses?

Info here - read between the lines the next month or so. Matching shirts, talking about specific songs, matching rings, ties, etc... Also what they say in interviews and, what they DON'T say. Notice Elijah telling all about renting the farmhouse w/ Dom and Billy. He's letting things out, and will continue to do so.

Other posts consistently refer to blue and grey, especially wrt ties-- One of many:

Last time: ties to match their eyes.
Blue. Gray.

Several others have said to watch for rings. Also, about Elijah's ring-- he never wears it when he knows cameras will be around. He only wears it in casual, non-public circumstances. If it didn't have meaning, he would wear it in other circumstances. That he's wearing it on the press tour now is *very* significant.

The biggest thing to remember, with the orange and yellow, for instance, is that this is not how these guys usually dress. Out of the thousands of pictures I have of them, I have *none* with Elijah in orange, or Dom in yellow.

As far as sightings, he is not "supposed" to be out alone w/ Dom. Thank goodness for Billy. Nothing wrong with dropping your boyfriend off at Yoga while grabbing an iced latte and a smoke though, is there? Speaking of which......

10:27 -
This was just ONE event. You expect them to wear ALL of that at one time?
That event was casual, no ties - so they did the colors instead. Keep watching.

Dom's Cowboy shirt

"Boo-tiful Babes in Boyland"
One is wanted dead or alive and the other's only enemy is kryptonite. Tights and chaps? Or leather and straps? If you're dialed into the right scene you could be flying high and see these two in action come the witching hour on Halloween-ie

Right on about the rhinestone cowboy.

Dom's Halloween plans were scrapped when he got stuck in Toronto for unscheduled appearances.

Gold = yellow, when it's on a fancy fellow.


Not only a flower in his pocket but on his shirt, too. And there is now a key on his neck chain

Bingo. Keep your eyes peeled for more.

Let's tally the last two weeks so far, shall we?

*Dom and Elijah wear blue and grey at the NY premiere, and at other premieres are also in coordinated colors:

Paris: Silver and Gold

LA: Brown and White (coffee and cream)

NZ: Black and White, plus Dom's wearing the tie Elijah wore on Leno

*Elijah wears a spanking new gold ring all over the press tour and flashes it everywhere.

*Elijah does an MSN chat where he talks about how lovely it is to be tactile and wake up next to someone. Yet, curiously, in several interviews he also says he's never brought a girl home.

*At the New York premiere, we're treated to a lovely, closed-eyes hug between them.

*On the tail end of the Starz special, we're treated to a lovely shot of Dom kissing Elijah's hand, and then warmly embracing the giggling little maniac.

*At the LA premiere, Dom tickles Elijah's sides and then they have another warm, juicy hug.

*On his MTV2 gig, Elijah dedicates the song "No One Knows" to Dom. He doesn't dedicate any songs to anyone else.

*On Leno, Elijah says he spent all of his time in his hotel room. When asked if "she" was hot, he smirked and agreed that "she" was. He then went on to comment approvingly on humping monkeys.

*Elijah says he's a fruit on Caroline Rhea before having an "oh shit" moment and backtracking. The two then go on to have hysterical giggles about teen mags trumpeting his supposed single status

*Elijah talks about sleeping in Dom's trailer

*And Elijah says the hobbits make sweet love together.

Did I forget anything?

Boys, it's been a hell of a ride. Enjoy the holidays and we'll see you during awards season. :) Love from the Seattle outpost.
