30 Day Shipping Meme - Day 17, 18, 19
Once again I am going to do the weekends ships early, because I probably won't be able to get around to it then. :)
17. Most frustrating ship?
Luke and Lorelai from Gilmore Girls is a ship that I love at times but at others makes me rage and want to throw things at the TV. For the most part they are hilarious and work so well together. The witty banter that flies back and forth between them is better than banter I've ever heard between another ship... and yet when things are working and going smoothly the writers throw a wrench in it and make them do horrible things. Like Lorelai sleeping with Christopher! Or having Luke all of a sudden throwing away his engagement with Lorelai, his dream girl for like 8 years, and being a complete tool. Like, "oh they are happy and together now, what can we do to split them up and make them hate each other". It's awful. (On second thought perhaps I just dislike them after Season 5.)
So although I love them and for the most part they are wonderful, they tend to be the most frustrating ship for me.
18. Why aren't these two married in real life?
Alright this confused me at first. Does it mean I want the actors married in real life because I like the ship? Or does in mean I wish the ship was married in canon? I decided to go with a couple in real life that would be great married (or at least from what I can tell). I don't really ship real life couples... its a little creepy stalkerish for me, but Cory Monteith and Dianna Agron (who play Finn and Quinn on Glee) are the closest I will come to it. They have great chemistry on and off screen and you can just tell that they are great friends. Actually, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if they DID have a romance going on for some time. For months it was normal to see them walking the red carpet together and doing interviews together. And when they weren't together by the end of the interview they would be, lol. It was like they were magnetically drawn to eachother. Now this wouldn't normally suggest a romantic relationship but on some of the occasions they would arrive together and would be touchy feely. Again, perhaps they just have that sort of friendship (as most of the cast seems to have) but I ship it. I love seeing them together, flirty or just being friendly. They are beyond adorable!
Click to view19. There's still hope!
From the beginning I have seen the potential between Barney and Robin from How I Met Your Mother. In fact, it seemed like the creators were almost hinting towards it being a good match. Then they DID get together! And I cheered and bounced around in my seat like a 4 year old. Then they dated and although they were cute at times I could feel it losing steam... and then they broke up in what felt like a VERY out of character episode.... and I was sad. So sad. I figured their chance had been ruined... their relationship had run its course. BUT THEN... Barney still had feelings for her when Don came into the picture and I cheered and bounced again. Hope was not lost after all. Now my hope is 100% up this season. Especially since there have already been some sparks flying. It's not over I can feel it in my bones. XD
Whew that was a big post!
