fic meme results
Here are the results from the post I did yesterday about pairings.
Give me one character (or more!) and I will tell you:
1. OTP for them
2. Runner-up pairing
modifying the crossover one since I can't visualize pairings even with most of the regulars
3. fandom to crossover with
4. Guilty pleasure pairing
5. Ship I cannot sail
for slyreflection
Marat Safin
1. Roger, there’s a fun power struggle.
2. Juan Carlos. I blame sly for that one because I cannot unsee it.
3. I have to admit I have the Torchwood stuck in my head but that’s not fair so I’ll say True Blood.
4. Nikolay. I really want the Unholy Trilogy muse to return because last year’s AO pressers were awesome. He’s not Paris Hilton, indeed.
5. scratches forehead. There’s gotta be someone…
David Ferrer
1. Juan Carlos. Yin and yang.
2. Feli. The way he looks at David in those DC pix… yum.
3. CSI: Miami. Think he’d make a hot cop. Might actually watch more than five minutes of it.
4. Marat. Read a fic long time ago with them and there are possibilities.
5. David Nalbandian. Not worth dealing with the name issue (David Marrero, on the other hand, I would work around :) )
Andy Murray
1. Rafa or Novak, how do you choose? Rafa was the first I paired him with but cannot deny the Novak/Andy love either. They’re my OT3! So I pick both.
2. Besides, have to co-OTP so that I could have this slot for my other fave pairing. Richie. Common friends (Rafa, Novak, Stan), their roller coaster matches… and, from what I can tell, nothing off court to support them knowing each other whatsoever. Absolutely perfect!
3. I was totally stuck on this one and then I saw a tweet from Andy that made it so obvious. The lone RPS pairing, too. Rory McIlroy, the kid from Northern Ireland who led the Masters with nine holes to go. Knows a thing or two about not handling the final day of a major very well.
4. Feli. Any pairing which has the issue of one’s mom stalking the other is definitely guilty pleasure.
5. I used to write it but now I can’t stand the pairing: Roger. He made Andy cry, dammit.

Feliciano Lopez
1. Fernando of course
2. Ferru. see above.
3. America’s Next Top Model. He’d be a fierce contestant.
4. Rafa. Corruptible fun.
5. Juan Carlos. I don’t think Feli could put up with him for more than five seconds.
Fernando Verdasco
1. Feli of course
2. I suppose Ferru. Without Feli, Nando does nothing for me.
3. the next gardener/repairman/mailman on Desperate Housewives
4. Can’t think of one. Though if I combine him and Feli, my guilty pleasure is when they add a third… any third. Even that trilogy involving Sod.
5. Roger. Too many hair issues.
Juan Carlos Ferrero
1. Ferru. see above
2. Marat. see above
3. Have him replace Steve Carell on The Office. They’d get in shape if he were in charge.
4. Andy R. It’d be tough to get them together but, oh, the possibilities. Especially if written back when they were both in the top 5.
5. Feli. I don’t think JC could put up with him for more than five seconds.
for calzamante
Richard Gasquet
1. Andy M. see above.
2. Gael. I cannot figure how these two fit together (I know, trying to write it for netcord) but pics do not lie.
3. Grey’s Anatomy. Certainly is a drama magnet, so no problemo having him as an intern. Maybe paired with Mark Sloan, which makes sense when reading #4.
4. Marat. Went back and forth between him and Roger. Both are fun regarding power, in different ways. But Marat is just hotter when it comes to corrupting.
5. I have no idea.
Marin Cilic
1. Mario of course
2. I guess Juan Martin since they’re so similar but he’s really not slashy outside of Mario (and this from someone who has paired him off with others)
3. Big Bang Theory. Yeah, just throwing a dart at the board for that one. Definitely would fit there.
4. Goran. Don’t think it exists but definitely was thinking about it when writing the DC fics.
5. Rafa. It’d just be wrong.
for hollabee
Ernests Gulbis
1. Novak of course
2. Marat. Protégé kink.
3. I’d like to involve him in Total Drama Island. Strand him on an island without any money.
4. I suppose Richie, since both have very questionable taste in women.
5. Maybe Andy M. Ernie would find Andy to be dull as dirt and Andy would be annoyed within five minutes.
for gordos
Robin Soderling
1. Magnus Norman. A coach/student affair that sadly has parted.
2. Rafa. An angry Rafa is a really hot Rafa.
3. He needs to be the adversary for someone on a comedy show, maybe the straight man to the crazies on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
4. Since Joachim Johanssen (Pim-Pim) came out of retirement briefly for DC and they’re both Swedish… definitely a guilty pleasure.
5. I give nearly any pairing a shot when it comes to Robin, since there’s so little written. Though it’d take a lot to read him with Berdych, if you were pairing off the Top 10 players.
Andy Roddick
1. Roger. The original angst pairing.
2. Marat. Two different kinds of craziness. Good times.
3. Andy in a Texas Rangers (baseball) uniform.
4. I do not want to see fic in which he corrupts Ryan Harrison. I swear ;)
5. Lleyton Hewitt. Just, no.
Roger Federer
1. Marat. Only one who can get Roger off balance. I really like offbalance Roger.
2. Andy Roddick. See above.
3. Roger as James Bond in one of those 60s parody versions Dean Martin did.
4. Richie. You know Roger gets off on the idea of someone following his lead.
5. Andy M. see above
Nikolay Davydenko
1. Marat. Of course.
2. Irina. Totally not cheating :) She rocks.
3. If Gossip Girl can have Wallace Shawn, they can make Nikolay and Irina the new couple in town.
4. Er, hmm. I really don’t know. Maybe Mikhail Youzhny (Igor would make more sense due to photos but he does nothing for me - Makiri can keep him)
5. I don’t know. He’s not written so I give anything a shot.
