Smallville pairings meme // Young Justice fic rec

Apr 27, 2011 20:48


princessofgeeks reminded me of this pairing meme, which I've done a million times with all my primary fandoms so there's really no point in doing it again--I doubt my answers have changed much. However, given my renewed interest in Smallville, I figure it'd be interesting to at least do that one. (I've limited to SV characters only, to avoid slipping Batman in there somewhere. *g*)

One True Pairing Ship: Clark/Lois/Oliver, though I'm also good with Clark/Lois + Oliver BFFness or Clark/Oliver + Lois BFFness.
Favourite Canon Ship: Clark/Lois, though Lois/Oliver were also super adorable. :D
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Martha/Lionel. *gags* Thankfully I rarely see Martha/Lionel outside dystopian AUs and I already hate those, so.
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Clark/Tess. I've only seen two eps with Tess and one of them was "Luthor". *g* They definitely have chemistry! Clark wouldn't be good for her as a boyfriend, though. Better to stay just friends.
"I dabble a little" Ship: Chloe/Jimmy. They were sweet.
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Lex/Lana. Mostly I point and mock, then fast-forward to something more interesting.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Clark/Lana. No, really! Maybe the soulful looks and pining have finally worn down my resistance to bad writing, but I'm actually starting to believe that Clark and Lana loved each other after all, and it wasn't just, I dunno, a bad habit they couldn't quite kick.
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Oliver/Kara! I'm carrying my love for the Green Arrow/Supergirl dynamic over from Justice League Unlimited. ♥
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Clark/Lex. I loved them in S1-2, but now I mostly find it creepy. I'm not a big fan of hate-sex or enemy pairings. Also (and this is not the part I find creepy, fwiw) did you know that Clark was only 14 while Lex was 21 in Season 1? No, Tom Welling didn't look it, nor did the writers make it explicit until S4. But still. That's a whole lot of underage going on there.

I haven't seen the Chloe/Oliver eps yet. (Kind of dreading it, tbh, and some of Chloe's later development as well.) Lois/Oliver is just so note-perfect, and note-perfect because it doesn't work out and their issues are so believable and almost mundane, and they've settled down into a wonderfully comfortable friendship, whereas everything I keep hearing about Chloe/Oliver says they're... very much not. It's just that I ♥ S4-6 Chloe so much that I don't want to keep watching and find myself hating her instead. :(

unfitforsociety, a fanfic recommendation for a truly AWESOME Young Justice fic. Due to ~shenanigans~, Batman needs Lois to babysit Superboy for a while. Superboy imprints on Lois like a little lost duckling. Lois teaches Superboy some life skills, and kicks Clark's ass a little bit. Or a lot.

By Any Other Name by anonymous. Gen, with background Lois/Clark. Starring Lois Lane, Superboy aka Conner, and Clark Kent (as the deadbeat dad).
"You're eating lunch in a bathroom stall in order to hide from a teenage boy," Lois said. "Clark, I want you to think about what brought you to this incredibly shameful moment."

ETA: Reccing because, God, it never fails to warm the cockles of my heart every time I re-read it. On the third day... by
basingstoke. Justice League, fic tag for "Comfort and Joy". Batman shows up at the Kent farm and Clark convinces him to stay for pie.
Clark and J'onn sat down. Batman lurked.

Pa stirred his coffee and regarded Batman. "Well, sit down, son," he said, and Clark could hear Batman's heart skip a beat.

Damn, I can't believe that was 2004. Time flies.

ION, it's Three Weeks For Dreamwidth/
three_weeks_for_dw! Last year I posted my Women of Stargate picspam series, but I haven't figured out yet what to do this year. Anyone have suggestions?
