Abigail Sciuto/Timothy McGee, NCIS
In the short-term, it was cute, but I'll never understand this ship in the long-term sense. Abby's an unstoppable force, but McGee's no immovable object. She'd bawl him over, and does so on a regular basis. She's able to walk all over him, and he's so often one step behind her, which is why I don't understand this being such a huge ship. I guess it's because I think that two people should be on a more equal footing in a relationship. Abby needs someone on her level, someone who she can't run over with her boundless enthusiasm, but someone who rolls with it and doesn't let it overwhelm them. *cough*Gibbs*cough
Day 29: What ship had the best proposal?
B'Elanna Torres/Tom Paris, Star Trek Voyager
*laughs* I'll never, ever forget this pairing's proposal! They were piloting the Delta Flyer in this big race, facing extremely dangerous situations with consoles shorting and other such chaos, then Tom, who was in the middle of using every ounce of skill he had to keep them alive, called nonchalantly over his shoulder, "Will you marry me?" And B'Elanna's head whips up and she stares down at him, all, "You're proposing now?!" Hee! Adorable and hilarious!
Day 30: Your favorite ship forever and ever and ever!
Oh, it's impossible to pick just one! I've had so many ships over the years that I've loved, each in their own unique way. If it came down to it, I'd say my top three would be:
Abigail Sciuto/Leroy Jethro Gibbs, NCIS
Merlin/Arthur Pendragon, Merlin
Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard, Stargate Atlantis
