I'm trying to find a story I read long, looong ago. It was a Mag7/CSI crossover. Nick/Gil and set in the historically accurate timeline of M7. Gil was a professor, Nick his student, blah blah
( Read more... )
No, I completely feel you. Honestly, I've always wished I was a little more consistent in my OTPness, because I'm all over the map from fandom to fandom.
I seem to have this pattern where I'll have an OTP in a given fandom, but can read stories that have one of the OTP characters paired with just about anyone, but the other OTP character is a no-no. (Hell, that doesn't make any sense...)
Basically, like this:
CSI - my OTP is Greg/Gil. BUT I can read Greg paired with just about anyone, and often actively seek out those stories. However, Gil becomes a huge squick when paired with anyone else.
SGA - OTP is McShep, but I can read Rodney paired with anyone, but not Shepperd. Ronon/Rodney? HELL YES! Ronon/Shepperd? OH MY GOD, NO!
HP - OTP is Harry/Draco, but I can read Harry with anyone, while Draco is off limits.
Buffy seems to be the one fandom where I don't really have a OTP, but a OTC - Xander. I can read Xander paired with anyone/anything, but I CANNOT read any other pairings - Xander/Angel is awesome. Angel with ANYONE else is gross. Xander/Spike is great. Spike with anyone else is ick. etc. etc. etc.
I don't understand why I'm like that. And jeeze louise this is the third long winded comment I've left in the last hour. I need to go to bed or something and quit spamming folks' LJs! LOL

Oh, it does make sense! I'm pretty much the same -- there's a flexible partner and a non-flexible one, usually. Heee!
