Three Ships I Have Never Really Liked:
10. Harry/Ginny (Harry Potter)
11. Arthur/Gwen (Merlin)
12. Dean/Sam (Supernatural)
Two Ships That Have Piqued My Interest:
13. Dean/Castiel (Supernatural)
14. Kris/Tommy (AI RPF)
Questions:
1. Why do you dislike #11 so much?
Mainly because the chemistry between Bradley James and Angel Coulby (the actors who play Arthur and Gwen) is pretty nonexistent, while the chemistry between Bradley and Colin is amazing. On and off screen. Especially in the first season. The ship shipped itself basically.
2. Who do you know that ships #13?
I actually don't know anyone who does offhand. I've never been too social within that fandom because it's a bit too intense for me. I just read fic and stuff all by my lonesome.
3. What would be your ideal scenario for couple #3?
They realize they're meant for each other and after disentangling themselves from any current relationships *coughkratycough*, they date. And then get married (or as married as they could get in the U.S.) and adopt cute babies. :D
4. What is your favorite moment for #1?
Wow. There are so many. My favorite episode is "Two Bodies In The Lab" from season 1. I love the end where Booth rescues Brennan just in the nick of time from Kenton. The look on both their faces, but especially Brennan's, when Booth is holding her. It's just...wow. You have to see it to understand. You pretty much get from the beginning of the show that Booth loves her/is falling in love with her, but that's the first episode where you see a real glimpse of how much he means to Brennan.
5. How long have you been following couple #6?
Since the show premiered on the BBC in September 2008. The chemistry and shippy-ness between the two was immediately apparent.
6. What's the story with #8? What made you stop caring?
Bill is just boring. At first I was sucked in by the whole star cross'd lovers, brooding vamp thing, but as the show goes on he just gets more and more boring. Plus he's a liar and a manipulator. Sneaky. At least with Eric, you know he's bad news, he's pretty up front about it.
7. Which ship do you prefer--#2 or #4?
#2. Castle/Beckett will probably actually happen at some point for one thing. I think Annie/Jeff is just a joke to the writers of that show, even if my weird little brain thinks it'd be perfect.
8. You have the power to make one ship nonexistent. Choose #10 or #12.
Dean/Sam (#12) I guess. Idk, I don't judge people who are into it (except I totally am) but I just don't get incest pairings. The squick is too high for me. Plus, imho it's made the fandom significantly crazier than is pleasant.
9. What interests you about #14?
Ngl, it's purely porn for me. I just like the thought of two tiny hot guys sexing each other up. It's not that deep lol.
10. When did you stop liking #7?
It's not that I stopped liking them, it's just I find it really hard to read any HP fic now that the series is over. I have no explanation for that really.
11. Did your waning interest in #9 kill your interest in the series?
No not really. I still rewatch QAF now and then. Basically, when I rewatch it, I'm totally into Brian/Justin. But unlike most people in the fandom, I thought the ending was really fitting. I think Justin left for the right reasons, and in my mind, he probably never came back. So the ship just came to a natural end imo.
12. What's a song that reminds you of #1?
Bones has incredible music. The one song that really resonated to me as representing Booth/Brennan is one that was in an episode from the fifth season. In the episode, Booth is struggling over re-certifying for his marksmanship test after his brain surgery. At the end of the episode, he asks Brennan to come and watch him take the test, believing that her being there will give him the motivation and confidence to pass, which he does with flying colors. This song, My Ghost by Glass Pear is playing during the scene. It's a beautiful song and if you listen to the lyrics it describes Brennan and Booth's relationship perfectly.
13. Which of these ships do you love the most right now?
Probably a toss up between Booth/Brennan and Castle/Beckett. I've been rewatching all the old Bones episodes, so it's fresh in my mind. Otoh, the stuff coming up for Castle/Beckett sounds super exciting and positive/happy rather than kinda sad and depressing which is the current status for Booth/Brennan (although I have faith that'll change).
14. Which do you dislike the most?
Arthur/Gwen. It's really kinda made what was an incredible show kinda mediocre and lacking tbh.
15. If you could have any of these pairings double date, who would they be?
It'd kinda be hysterical if Brennan/Booth went double with Castle/Beckett. I'd wonder how Kate and Rick would react to Brennan's character because she's so unique. And Booth gets jealous easily and Castle is a flirt (even though he loves Beckett of course). So maybe he'd flirt lightly with Brennan and Booth would get "Boothy". And Kate would give Castle a withering look like she does so well. It'd be really entertaining lol.
16. Have #2 kissed yet? Elaborate if yes.
NO!! But soon! I cannot wait omg. :DDDD
17. Did #4 have a happy ending? Do you think one is likely?
Well idk. As of now, they're kind of acting like Jeff's tryst with Annie was some terrible character failing of his and like it's kind of a joke. So yeah, something tells me it won't go anywhere. You never know though. :D
18. What would make you start shipping #14?
I guess it depends on what you mean by shipping. I already kind of do ship them for fic and fun purposes. I'd never ship them for real because it'd get in the way of Kradam lol. :D
19. If only one could happen, which would you prefer: #2 or #6?
Oh wow, this is difficult. I kind of already know that 6 won't happen, at least in canon. But if it could, it might even outshine my love for Castle/Beckett. It's that epic.
20. You have the power to decide the fate of #10. What happens to them?
LOL oh dear. I'm about to make a lot of people very mad. They realize they are totally wrong for each other in every way. They divorce and Harry either ends up with Luna Lovegood if he's straight or Draco if he's gay. *awaits angry owls and howlers at my door*
