Het OTPs!
All that Caroline / Thorne talk in my last post? Made me think with fondness of my het OTPs from way back when I was a teen until now. Het smut no longer does anything for me, not much anyway, but a good old-fashioned het romance still could get me all sigh-ey and squee-ey.
Do you have any het OTPs of your own? Fictional couples whom you rooted for, either in books or on TV / movies?
1. Pam and Bobby Ewing of 'Dallas'. Love them to bits. I thought their modern day Romeo-Juliet love extremely romantic! I watched 'Dallas' mainly because of them, counting the days, hours until the next episode. I barely remember what happened at the end though. I remember Jenna, hate hate HATE her.
They looked so good together!
Bobby and Pam during their later years. The wonder of plastic surgery ...
2. Mulder and Scully. Oh the UST between those two! Where every look and little touches between them would make me go all shivery and quivery. My love for them transverse to their real life that I was all heartbroken ( on Gillian Anderson's behalf ) when David married Tea Leoni!
A perfectly matched couple, in intellects and looks!
3. Paul and Jamie from 'Mad About Me'. Both neurotic in their own way, two people who are actually a lot different from each other yet they got on so well together. Their on-screen chemistry was absolute magic!
4. Aragorn and Arwen, my most romantic couple from Middle-Earth. I fell in love with Strider the minute the hobbits saw him at the Prancing Pony, all dark and brooding and dangerous-looking. And when he met Eowyn, I was like, oh please, please don't fall in love with Eowyn ( nothing against Eowyn, only at that point of time I wanted him for myself ). Then Arwen came into the picture, but I didn't really get her until I reached the Appendix in ROTK.
The next day at the hour of sunset Aragorn walked alone in the woods, and his heart was high within him; and he sang, for he was full of hope and the world was fair. And suddenly even as he sang he saw a maiden walking on a greensward among the white stems of the birches; and he halted amazed, thinking that he had strayed into a dream ... And behold! there Luthien walked before his eyes, clad in a mantle of silver and blue, fair as the twilight in Elven-home; her hair dark strayed in a sudden wind, and her brows were bound with gemslike stars.
Isn't that just so romantic? *sighs*
Arwen and Aragorn at the coronation., and their wedding.
5. And of course, Caroline Spencer and Thorne Forrester ( as played by Clayton Nostromm ). Couldn't find any pics unfortunately. But I was rooting for Thorne all the way when he and his brother Ridge were fighting for Caroline's affection. Too bad Thorne Clayton was replaced by another actor :(
Who are your het OTPs, if any?
