Oh, 16 is Josh/Donna. I knew I recognised the quote :)

I think I might have a go at this - just because I could do with something lighthearted on the old LJ.

And why not? I had fun with this one. :-)

I've picked 15 pairings/3somes so far - but I need to decide what quotes or descriptions to use!

:loL: That is the difficult bit... It took me several months - but once I saw someone else using quotes rather than descriptions, it worked out.

Okay, I had to be told it was BBC Shakespeare, but I KNEW I'd heard that recently! I just could. not. place. it. #15 is Cassius/...Antony? I appear to have forgotten the other dude's name. *shameface* ;P

ETA: No, Brutus/Cassius, of course. Right? Wow, that was a sudden case of brain fog. O_O

Also, I am unable to see #18 as anything but a runaway dw_straybunnies prompt - Jamie/Victoria or Jo/Cliff or some such thing, any of the companions who wouldn't have met their opposite numbers without travelling with the Doctor (him being the "alien" in question). But I doubt it actually is. ;-)

I forgive your for your accidental solecism there, :lol: (Although Julius Caesar fandom [which as I mentioned, is a tiny but delightful place] welcomes all ships, and indeed definitely includes Antony/Cassius.) But, Brutus/Cassius, yes.

\o/ I forgot I only flailed to you and belantana. So you were the only ones who could possibly guess it with being either psychic. Or stalking me round the net and flists.

18 is NOT that, although john_elliott said pretty much the same thing. It is a quote from one of their shippiest moments in a highly shippy scene, while being quite misleading. Or at least, it would be truer to say it was down to at least 4 alien experiments. (Not a fandom you know v well, though.)

Shoot, paranoidangel24 beat me to getting #16, although until I saw 16 I thought #12 might be them since Donna frequently stole food from Josh.

12 is also from The West Wing! And involves someone who was far more obsessed with food than Donna! (I wrote a fic about them, once.)

I know what #12 is, but only because of your hint in your last post.

(By the way, I had an orange-cranberry muffin yesterday and thought of that fic. *g*)

Guessing due to hints is fine. Lots of the above have been guessed the same way - my descriptions were hard!

So, say it aloud then (you're definitely right)...

I think if you put that much work into it, we'll call it research and you can get the credit - provided Google hasn't played you false. So, it's...?
