Doh!
I knew there was a reason why I don't like to submit a post just before dinner. I didn't actually proof read my last entry till just now, and one stinking little coding error screwed up an entire section of my meme and I didn't even know, and I just spent the last 15 minutes deleting every other word and equal signs because for some freaky reason it had done something freaky, so after all that hard work, I HAD to make sure everyone sees it. I just had to:
5. Kandy
Oh yeah. Kelly/Andy from The Office, dubbed "Kandy" by the fandom (namely dollsome), because they are super sweet and enthusiastic and perky and they both would dig having their names smooshed together like that, because they are both still high schoolers at heart (well, perhaps Andy is stuck in college rather than high school, but they're both pretty dramatic). They are just so perfect for each other in every way, and up until Cafe Disco, they barely had any interaction at all. This was basically a fanon ship that happened in the summer of 2007, someone (I forget who, maybe mozart_fic?) wrote an angsty Andy/Kelly fic and it was wonderful, but the ship didn't catch my attention until I read Accidental Harmony by dollsome and it was hilarious and completely in character and the single greatest thing that I have ever read in my life. It rocked my world, and it gave me an OTP that could plausibly become canon, because DEAR GOD, THEY ARE SOULMATES! SOULMATES!!! Dollsome basically started a Kandy revolution, and I was so on board. But unfortunately, it ended up just being a fad, which is sad, because those fics were rad. Quite a large chunk of fandom had ended up trying their hand at Kandy because they are just so darn fun to write, and a good number of us had rallied the jammers into supporting Kandy, but then season 4 came along and threw us for a loop with the whole Andy/Angela thing and we all gave up on Kandy, because they shared a total of ZERO scenes in the entire season. *sigh* And then season 5 brought us Oscar/Andy subtext and numerous hints that Andy is actually gay and just doesn't realize it, so... yeah, this ship has been abandoned by many. *sniff* I am so very torn between Kelly/Andy and Oscar/Andy, but at this point I am so convinced that Andy is gay that all I can really see happening between him and Kelly is that they'll become BFFs and Kelly will finally have a gay best friend that she will treasure like he's a Hello Kitty handbag.
There. I feel better now. Here, have some random ASH too:
Ah, see? Now my post wasn't completely pointless.
ETA: And my yearning for Uther/Gwen fic is increased. I WAS SWOONING! THEY ARE SO ADORABLE! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
