Fannish Five and other stuff
Name five non-canoncial couples that you would like - or would have liked - to see get together in canon.
1. Tim/Dick. They were the first pairing I was attracted to in this fandom. Tim is just one of the most intriguing characters for me and Dick just seems open to anything. They love each other, they're brothers, cling to each other in your grief guys.
2. Spike/Angel. Yeah, we got that 'that one time' bit but, in my world, vampires do it with anything that moves, and part of the childe/sire 'ship is sex and domination, so, come on! Even if Spike really isn't Angel's child, he's his grandchilde. Same diff! Two hot men roaming Europe together slaughtering and wenching. Guh
3. Methos/Duncan. New to me, but after five thousand years you think Methos has only done it with women? Duncan, yeah, probably straight in his four hundred years, but there's chemistry there. Hell, Methos has chemistry with every couch and chair he sprawls on. There's also loads of angst between them. Angst can lead to passion.
4. Chloe/Lionel. Season 2/3 there was chemistry. It was dark and this wouldn't have been romantic, but I could see it enough that they truly became my OTP and I just don't have those (since I can put characters I love together with many different characters in every other fandom). Thanks for killing half my OTP, Smallville!
5. Lindsey/Angel. Guh Heat Guh Angel thrusting Lindsey up against that car nearly had me on the floor in a puddle. I don't like vamp/human male/male pairings but this one, oh yeah. Hatred leading to passion. One of my favorite things.
I would have said Tim/Kon but in canon for me Kon is 110% straight.
In other words, I enjoyed Dollhouse. It's not a new scifi idea (but then what is?) but I liked it. I liked the explanation of where the dolls came from and I'm intrigued by Amy Acker's character, and, of course there's Helo shirtless. Plus, I am one of those who loves anything Joss writes. I'm not apologizing for that. His writing hits the right buttons in me, and I enjoy it. Hell, I sat and watched the last hour of Serenity the other night just because it was on Scifi and I didn't want to get off the couch.
I slept in today--10:30. Three day weekend for the win!
I hope to get some writing done but I keep reading Methos fic.
And I really need to watch some saved tv because my faux tivo is like 79% full. I have around eight Ugly Bettys, all of Top Chef, the second season of Skins, the last four Crusoes and a whole bunch of other stuff I need to watch. Plus the last two Smallvilles, but, I heard so many bad things about the last episode and what they did to Lex that I'm just not tempted at all. I hope this is the last season. Just make him Superman already. The only reason for me to watch these days is Ollie. With Lionel dead and Chloe boringly married to boring Jimmy and Lex gone, it's just meh.
On the other hand, Supernatual cannot return soon enough!
Also...I just realized I had a Gossip Girl dream about the repercussions of what happened between Dan and the teacher. It was like an episode running through my head and no "me" in it. Weird. I don't usually remember my dreams.
Well, need to go wash dishes.
Happy Valentine's Day. The holiday doesn't bother me, doesn't excite me. I don't need another person in my life to make me happy. I got a teddy bear from my mom. *g* No, seriously, I see no reason to mope. I never have and I've always been alone on this holiday. I just can't see getting bothered over a holiday celebrating love when I don't have it. I love myself. Nuff for me.
