Two Ships I Am Curious About, But Don't Actually Ship
13. Eliot/Sophie (Leverage)
14. Eliot/Parker (Leverage)
1.) Why do you dislike #11 (Reid/Prentiss) so much? Because I'm not much of a Reid fan, and if this ever happened on screen, it would make me gag up a lung.
2.) Who is someone you know that ships #13 (Eliot/Sophie)? I don't think anyone I personally know ships them.
3.) What would be your ideal scenario for couple #3 (John/Aeryn)? Happily ever after, and all that jazz.
4.) Which is your favorite episode for #1 (Nate/Eliot)? Try to pick just one. Episode? Wow, that's hard. There are so many little scenes that have sold me on them. Well, spoilers here... I think I would pick "The Maltese Falcon Job," because there's this one scene where Eliot tells Nate he'll have his back right up to the end, and at the end, Nate sacrifices himself for his family/team. Right before Eliot leaves--he's the last one to get on the helicopter--he looks back at Nate for a long moment, and then reluctantly climbs on board. It's a powerful episode.
5.) How long have you been following couple #6 (Sawyer/Juliet)? I jumped on the bandwagon in Season 5.
6.) What's the story with #8 (Angel/Buffy)? What made you stop liking them/caring? The maudlin angst got to be too much. They both pair off better with other people.
7.) Which ship do you prefer - #2 (Hotch/Rossi) or #4 (Kirk/McCoy)? Well, they're very different couples, and I love them both. I'll tell you what, though. Maybe it's the sheer volume of Kirk/McCoy fic that pours down on a daily basis; but if I saw a Kirk/McCoy fic or a new Hotch/Rossi fic right now, I'd read the Hotch/Rossi. Take that how you will.
8.) You have the power to make one ship non existent. Choose from #10 (McKay/Keller) or #12 (Jack/Sam). McKay/Keller. It annoys me more right now.
9.) What interests you about #14 (Elliot/Parker)? This is one of those ships I've tried not to let myself like. I love the idea of Hardison/Parker, and I can see a brother-sister vibe between Eliot/Parker. BUT... there have been times when I can totally see Eliot/Parker happening. Sometimes he tries way too hard to make himself look like a player in front of her, and as a writer, I could easily take those cues and run with them. I think they could work. (But Hardison would be crushed, and he's just lost Lucille!)
10.) When did you stop liking #7 (Sawyer/Kate)? Like Buffy/Angel, they ran their course. There comes a time when you either hook a couple up and work from there, or you split them up and move on. They passed their freshness date long ago.
11.) Did your waning interest in #9 (Simon/Kaylee) kill your interest in the show? No, not at all.
12.) What's a song that reminds you of #5 (Hotch/Prentiss) I never can think of anything for this question. Pass.
13.) Which of these ships do you love the most? Nate/Eliot.
14.) Which do you dislike the most? McKay/Keller
15.) If you could have any of these two pairings double date, who would it be? OMG! I would so love to see Nate/Eliot on a double-date with Hotch/Prentiss. Nate and Eliot would con, and Hotch/Prentiss would profile. And Eliot could even cook.
16.) Have #2 (Hotch/Rossi) kissed yet? Elaborate if you'd like. No, just a big old manly bear hug. Which is pretty intimate for Hotch.
17.) Did #4 (Kirk/McCoy) have a happy ending? If the show hasn't ended yet, do you think a happy ending is likely? Baby, they got a reboot! The journey continues.
18.) What would make you start shipping #13 (Eliot/Sophie)? For Nate/Sophie to run its course and for both to move on amicably.
19.) If only one could happen, which would you prefer - #2 (Hotch/Rossi) or #6 (Sawyer/Juliet)? Sawyer/Juliet. Sawyer-tears = :(
20.) You have the power to decide the fate of #10 (McKay/Keller). What happens to them? McKay realizes he's in love with Sheppard and shows up at his quarters with a six-pack and a DVD.
