top 15 pairings meme

This one is very, very easy, and I'm going to do it right now before I lose my ability to do polls. I list my 15 favourite pairings (or OT3s) of the moment, and you check whichever ones we share. And then there is optional squealing/shipping debates/questions about pairings you're unfamiliar with in the comments.

[Poll #1157956]

*Or...OT5s. You know how it goes.



Pairings are from, variously: Milliways, The Wasteland & HMS Praiseworthy.

[Poll #1157957]

*Hoo boy. SO MANY ISSUES.

**Okay, the terrible thing about this one is that I ship Lucifer/Lilly and Lucifer/Grace (and occasionally Lucifer/Alanna, just to mix things up) and Aria/Grace is the LEAST DISTURBING PAIRING along these general themes. Everyone be quiet and don't judge me and DON'T ask to see the family tree diagram containing Adam, Lucifer, Alanna, Thom, Grace, and the other two triplets, because every time I try to think about it I feel disturbed.

***With the very important caveat that this ship is one-third romance, one-third sibling-vibe and one-third platonic.

****SORRY ART


ETA:

Ji: Lucifer gets around
me: he certainly does
I didn't even put Lucifer/Lilly or Lucifer/Kassandra
or any of the other people he flirts with
Ji: you could have had a whole list
just of Lucifer
me: and I forgot Mordred/Galahad, too

(IN CONCLUSION: I SUCK. And Lucifer is a flirt-ho.)

I'M SO SORRY, ASHIE, IT HAS BEEN A WHILE. Clearly you need to write this drabble for me and reawaken my love of how awesome they are, right?

Win/Sepulchre?? SO MUCH D: *cries*

I have developed a weird thing for Kara/Leoben after finally FINALLY finishing all of BSG so far. I fully expect to soon be using my tag every week. ;) Leoben is an evil bastard, but strangely compelling. Kara/Lee still trumps it in my head, in that 'well, obviously' way, but it is there.

Benson/Sophie is adorable. And I am with you on the thirds of Ada/Benson. It is very much two-thirds unromatic, but I think one ignores that last third at one's peril. ;) They are having a snowball fight right now. AWWWWW.

And in conclusion: Grandpa. He does get around. *cries more, through fits of giggles*

I ship Azula/Zuko like burning, yo.

...Matter of fact, a good deal of my pairings are filthy. >_>

And I'm terrible about turning my nose up at canon, so I have to miss out on the Turners and the Coxes.

It's just that Benson doesn't want to DIE. But eventually he'll probably get there. :/

Okay, Win/Sepulchre is a terrible shameful ship. BUT STILL.

Lucifer gets around ENORMOUSLY but would like it to be noted that he has only slept with a few of them. Largely the ones I actually put on the poll.

I think I could really get into Azula/Zuko if I found one or two really, really good, creepy fics. But I find Mai/Zuko to be just my cup of tea.

I didn't care about the Turners until the last movie (after which I cared so much I wrote a very long fic about them) and the Coxes are pretty much the kind of relationship I want to be in, which says sad things about ME, but means I adore them beyond measure.

Hahahaha - yes! But will Sophie offer to marry Edelmann when he inevitably kicks Benson's ass? And will Edelmann care enough to be distracted?

[identity profile] fahye.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
Sadly, I doubt it. Besides, Edelmann is already married!

Sophie will, um, bandage him up and team up with Ada to lecture him about foolish assaults.

[identity profile] unravels.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose that will have to be enough. But then Edelmann will have WON. And Sophie's honor will still be, er, besmirched!

...Yeah, I don't know. Something would need to push him over the edge.

[identity profile] unravels.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
I just. Wow. I suppose it is better than Win/Edelmann. Augh. *clutches head*

ANYWAY. Largely? Yeah, I see how it is. >.>

[identity profile] fahye.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't think this was about Sophie's honour, I thought it was about Ada's!

Though maybe I just have Ada/Edelmann on the brain.

[identity profile] fahye.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
It is LOTS better than Win/Edelmann, though not quite as sensemaking as Edelmann/Sepulchre, because at least those two seem able to stand each other.

[identity profile] unravels.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
You're probably right. I was just going with the 'Shindig' thing of defending the honor of the person who taught you swordfighting. But there were not two possibilities there, so.

When I read Ada/Edelmann I actually whimpered aloud, I'll have you know.

[identity profile] unravels.livejournal.com 2008-03-22 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I can see that. Edelmann and Sepulchre does make sense, but they are somehow one of the least exciting of any of the potential pairings. There's no spark of attraction (that I've seen) and no simmering hatred or anything that would make it otherwise interesting. Maybe it is simmering below the surface. *ponders*

A long time ago I promised to write an epic futurefic after the series ended, so I expect all of my thoughts regarding Avatar pairings will be stuffed into that.

That I am most definitely looking forward to seeing.

My ideas on Avatar pairings are . . . um. Flexible? By which I mean I can be talked into a lot, just because I am so fond of all the characters.

Nope! We all had such a blast at Christmas, (because it's all 1337,) that we decided to keep it active.

There was just a new challenge posted ...yesterday? Something. It's members-locked.

It sounds awesome, but my life is prone to sudden fits of academic panic which make major fannish committments slightly unwise...how long do the challenges run for? Will I be ritually slaughtered and fed to rabid NaruHina fans if I sign up for something and then let my recipient down horribly?

Re: *suuugary sweet*

[identity profile] myrafur.livejournal.com 2008-03-28 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, maybe. Though, I prefer the SasuSaku fangirls. They're nasty.

We've got quite a few people in university, and are terribly accomodating. The current challenge is just a little fun one, but, over the summer, (or winter- You're aussie, right?) there'll be another big one, but there's LOADS of time leading up to each one.

The Master List is public from our Christmas fest, if you want to check out the quality of the participants...

If you want to join and check it out, you can weigh your participation from there. Sound fair?
