Bruce Wayne/Jason Todd. (DC Universe)
(Aka Batman/Robin II)
I dislike all Batman/Robin pairings.
The whole Robins thing, in fact, creeps me out a lot (coz putting school boy barely over ten years old into ridiculously revealing costumes to spend the night fighting criminals? Wrong on so many levels I don’t even know where to start, except by the fact that Batman should be the one in prison here).
The idea of Bruce Wayne, also having sex with those kids rather made me want to vomit than to ship them.
I still don’t like Bruce Wayne/Dick Grayson -even if I can understand/read it sometimes- and I don’t get Bruce Wayne/Tim Drake at all.
So why did I ended up loving Bruce Wayne/Jason Todd? Mostly because of Jason Todd himself. His unique background, his personality & the way both Bruce & Jason are obsessed with each other.
The wrongest OTP of all, but still OTP.

Honorable mention for Jack/Ianto. (Torchwood)
I'm one of the few who were COMPLETELY against it when it started, mostly because I shipped Owen/Ianto (and God help me not because I shipped Jack/Gwen because I hate those two together too); also because I thought Ianto deserved better than Jack.
I learned to love them with time & awesome fics.
(I’m still loving the Owen/Ianto better though)
