we'd have our own subway car in the middle of the night
Doing this because I'm really very bored and, you know, shipping is fun *nod*
1. List your top seven ships
2. Put all of them in order of your love for them; 7 to 1, 1 being your favorite.
3. Name their fandom.
4. Supply photos for said people.
5. Tag seven people I tag everyone on my flist that hasn't already done this.
Sam/Dean (Supernatural)
Dean: Sammy, all I'm saying is that you're my weak spot. You are! And I'm yours.
Sam: Yeah, because I've been following you around my entire life! I mean, I've been looking up to you since I was four, Dean. Studying you, trying to be just like my big brother. So yeah, I know you. Better that anyone else in the entire world. And this... is exactly how you act when you're terrified. And I mean, I can't blame you. It's just...
Dean: What?
Sam: It's just I wish you would drop the show and be my brother again. Cause... just cause.
I love these two simple because of how much they love each other. Their whole lives have been spent with everything else crashing down around their ears and in the end, they're all that they have left. They never actually say it out loud, but it's always there, in plain sight. They'll do anything for each other and they both just refuse to let the other one go. And the way that it's portrayed as the show goes on is just GORGEOUS and oh, boyssss *clings*
Gene/Alex (Ashes To Ashes)
Alex: I can't die... can I?
Gene: C'mere.
Gene: Too busy clearing the streets of cockney filth to get lonley... sometimes. But if I ever hear you repeat that I'm going to have to stamp on your pretty little head.
Alex: Why can't I just enjoy the last few seconds of life? I mean, it doesn't all have to be aboutpain does it?
Gene: No. No it doesn't.
Alex: What would you do, Gene? Last few seconds on earth, anything you want. Right now.
Gene: Right this second?
Alex: Mmm.
Gene: Right now? [Stares at her.]
Alex: Right now. Say it.
Gene: I'm drunk. And you're very drunk. [Stands up.]
Alex: What are you doing?
Gene: I'm doing the right thing, and you should go to bed Bolly. [Walks away.]
They have all the standard elements. UST like woah, banter, the thin line between love and hate, the mindfuckery... but then there's something more too because the Genie... he's got feelings for her and he doesn't quite understand that. It's all new and scary for him and he just doesn't know how to deal. She's mostly oblivious to it but then when she practically hands herself over to him... he doesn't take it because she means too much. And she wanted to hate him but she fell anyway and he dives on top of her when there's the shooting and he gets all pissy when other guys fancy her because she's ~his~ and HE CALLS HER BOLLY. OH, OTP OTP.
Remus/Sirius (Harry Potter)
Remus: Sirius, be quiet!
Sirius: Be quiet yourself, Remus!
Snape: Listen to you two, quarrelling like an old married couple.
Remus: Finally, the flesh reflects the madness within.
Sirius: Well, you'd know all about the madness within, wouldn't you Remus?
I love me some angsty shipping, and these two are about as angsty as it gets. Best friends that went through a war tigther and then slowly but surely... everything fell apart around them. James died, Peter "died", Sirius in Azkaban and Remus was left all alone for years thinking that his best friend was a murderer. Then there's the pure releif of finding out he was innoncent... just to have him taken away again. And then of course That Mauraders Scene in the forest. And, they're both K9. OH, BOYS.
Zoe/Wash (Firefly)
Wash: Not everybody gets me and Zoe at first glance.
Niska: I think it is not enough. Not enough for two. But sufficient, perhaps for one. Ah, you now have--
Zoe: [Points at Wash] Him.
This is the newest one of the bunch but... they've stolen my heart. I just love their relationship. She's so confident and self-assured and he's... not but they both carry each other equally, they both lean on each other. Sure, they argue but they pull through it every time because their just too strong. And LOOK AT THE PICTURE GUYS, LOOK AT HIS FACE. MY HEART, MY HEART.
Martha/Jack (Doctor Who/Torchwood)
Jack: Suddenly in an underground mortuary on a wet night in Cardiff, I hear the song of a Nightingale. Miss Martha Jones.
Martha: Well, it's been... interesting.
Jack: Oh, it's been fun. You know it has. [She kisses him and when they break away, he looks at her questioningly.]
Martha: [Laughs] Well, everyone else has had a go.
Jack: [Rests a hand on her cheek] You can still come back anytime.
Martha: Well maybe I will, one day. [Salutes him]
Jack: [Salutes back and watches her leave.]
I love these two more than I can say and I don't really know how to put how I see their relationship into words... he respects her and really, really loves her and he shows it. She feels exactly the same about him. He knows how much she's capable of and he trusts her but... he's protective of her at the same time. He isn't afraid to show how much he loves her either. SHE'S HIS FAVOURITE. I ship them as BFF and BFF with benefits and they're just so wonderful together. *flail* Also? Prettiest. Ship. Ever.
Brain/Justin (Queer As Folk)
Justin: I’m not scared.
Brian: You’re fucking terrified. Just like the night you met me. I was sure you’d run back home. But you didn’t. You said, ‘I’m going with him.’
Justin: I cannot believe that you remember that. Considering you couldn’t even remember my name.
Brian: And look what happened.
Justin: I turned into a big queer.
Brian: Yeah, lucky for you, otherwise I wouldn’t be wasting my time. But it’s too late now. There’s no turning back.
Brian: Don't get the idea that we're some married couple 'cause we're not. We're not like fucking straight people. We're not like your parents, and we're not a pair of dykes marching down the aisle in matching Vera Wangs. we're queers and if we're together it's because we want to be, not because there are locks on our doors. So if I'm out late, assume I'm doing exactly what I want to be doing, I'm fucking. And when I come home I'll also be doing exactly what I want to do...coming home to you.
OH. OH, MY HEART. I love everything about these two boys. They way that even though Brain tried not to let him, Justin still got in somehow under the wire. Brain tries to deny over and over again that he loves him because... Brain doesn't believe in love and that's just the way that it is. Justin was in love with Brian Kinney from minute one and spent every second from then on trying to get Brain to love him back. But again and again, Brain just keeps on pushing him away until... until he doesn't. In the end, they let each other go... but it's not over. It's "only time".
Ten/Martha (Doctor Who)
Martha: I meant to say, back there last night… I would’ve said anything to get you to change.
The Doctor: Oh yeah, course you would.
Martha: I mean, I wasn’t really…
The Doctor: No no no.
Martha: Right. So there we are then.
The Doctor: There we are then. Yes.
The Doctor: I’LL SAVE YOU!
…
The Doctor: I’m scared. I’m so scared.
Martha: Just, stay calm. You’ve saved me now I return the favour.
These two make me hurt so much. Their story's full of what-ifs and might-have-beens. No one in the world can tell me that he didn't love her, no one. She healed him and made him a better "person" (such is her Epic Awesome) and he never even told her that she wasn't second best. She wasn't. They save each other (well, more her saving hiss ass to be quite honest) and she knows the most fragile parts of him. I'm still waiting for them to get their timing right... even if it's never going to happen.
