Welcoming LJ back from our week of travail with a meme ganked from speccygeekgrrl.

Give me a pairing (one that I know!) and I will tell you:

1. What they most commonly do during sex
2. Who has prettier hair
3. What they argue about most often
4. Who'd cope best if the other one died
5. The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them.

NCIS - Tony/Ziva

1. What they most commonly do during sex
Missionary style intercourse, but Ziva generally needs additional manual stimulation to put her over the top.

2. Who has prettier hair
Ziva, by a long shot.

3.What they argue about most often
Tony being a jerk.

4. Who'd cope best if the other one died
Ziva. She's had experience with that kind of loss. Tony's had considerably less.

5.The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them.
They finally both let down their guards enough to admit their feelings, mostly sexual and after some epic hot monkey love, they also admit that it's more than that. However, due to the rule about dating a co-worker, they can't keep working together, so Tony takes a position in Rota (or somewhere else) and they conduct a long-distance love affair with lots of snarky phone-calls, Skype, etc, and ocassional visits for hot monkey love.

1. What they most commonly do during sex
Mutual masturbation, which Sherlock tends to approach from a scientific point of view, finding out exactly which bits of John's cock are the most sensitive. Frustrating as hell, but quite hot.

2. Who has prettier hair
Sherlock

3. What they argue about most often
Petty bullshit, usually about household stuff like laundry and shopping.

4. Who'd cope best if the other one died
Sherlock, but only because he'd find a way to detach from the actual emotions. John would have all his war-related issues return and possibly suffer a full break-down.

5.The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them.
To more or less follow ACD canon, with no Mary ever really coming onto the scene, but there'd be a constant level of frustration, because whenever one of them was considering acknowleding the relationship publicly the other one would back off and they'd be back to all the "we're not a couple" denial.

It is a problem, but I'd make the distinction between "subtext" and "fanservice." For the House/Wilson example, we had subtext in the first two seasons. It was very easy to read them as having a relationship that (depending on your slash glasses) was either something serious or just banter and blowjobs. The more things were made explicit that there was an emotional relationship and the more gay jokes were thrown in, the more that balance got screwed up. I honestly believe that someone took a look at what St. Doris was putting out there in episodes like Son Of a Coma Guy and then made a deliberate decision to walk it back, so that we got shit like The Down Low episode which basically was a giant FU to the slash fans ( ... )

Neal/Mozzie :)

Thanks! :)

and yes... i wish they would make it to the island too but I know that will never happen :(

It's either the writing or Willie Garson's acting, but one way or another, I'm just not sold on the awesomeness of Peter/Neal, the way some people are. I like the darker overtones of our Neal/Mozzie backstory (along with Neal/Adler.)

Jim and Artie. Or, if that's too jejeune, Ian and Radhi.

.

karaokegal August 3 2011, 06:42:50 UTC

1. What they most commonly do during sex
Anal sex, Jim usually tops, especially when Artie's in drag.

2. Who has prettier hair
Jim (except when Artie's in drag and has a wig.)

3. What they argue about most often
What Artie perceives as Jim's recklessness. (He's afraid of losing him, but can't admit it.)

4. Who'd cope best if the other one died
Jim. While I believe they love each other, I'm currently of the opinion that Artie is way more emotionally involved. He's known a lot of pain and abandonment in his life and Jim West is pretty much his world now. For Jim...he'd move on. Pretty quickly.

5. The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them.
Staying on the train until Artie has to retire from the service for health reasons. Jim would stay in the service longer, but come back to visit. It wouldn't be perfect, but good enough until Artie passes on.

All plausible. #5...I think of how young Ross Martin was when he passed, and it makes me sad.

karaokegal August 3 2011, 07:00:10 UTC

That's exactly what I was thinking. Ross Martin passing away at 61.

Gibbs/Fornell.

karaokegal August 3 2011, 06:48:43 UTC

1. What they most commonly do during sex
Anal sex-Gibbs tops.

2. Who has prettier hair
Another case where you have to go with guy whose still got most of his.

3. What they argue about most often
Jurisdictional fights and who didn't wash the dishes.

4. Who'd cope best if the other one died
Tricky. Gibbs has lost so many people and seems to already have internalized them all and doesn't expect things to last. Fornell would appear to be OK, but he'd really be crushed inside.

5. The happiest plausible happily-ever-after I can think of for them.
I can actually see them being happy together in their crotchety old guy way. It's about as "fluffy" a slash pairing as I can actually imagine. So they'd live together, grouch a lot and still have hot sex.
