The Meme That Ate Tokyo.......And Took Up My Sunday!
So below is the current meme that's making the rounds. Only there's no way in hell that I could whittle my list down to anything lower then 21. Yes, I fail at this. Yes, I'm a shipper whore. If your reading this journal you already know this.
Name your 10 absolutely favorite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms. My list was based on those ships that I not only loved, but read a ton of fic for. In no particular order, these are my ships.
1) Buff/Angel (BTVS)
2) Dean/Castiel (Supernatural)
3) Mulder/Scully (X-Files)
4) Lois/Clark (Smallville/DCU)
5) Michael/Nikita (La Femme Nikita)
6) Clark/Lex (Smallville)
7) Doctor/Rose/Jack (Dr. Who/Torchwood)
8) Clark/Bruce (Smallville/Nolan Verse/JL/DCU)
9) Bruce/Diana (Nolan Verse/JL/DCU)
10) Kirk/Uhura/Spock (Trek 2009)
11) Tom/Sloan (Prey)
12) Robin/Jason, Robin/Stone (GH)
13) Jesse/Celine (Before Sunrise/Before Sunset)
14) Brenda/Jax (GH)
15) Evangeline/John, Evangeline/Todd (OLTL)
16) Laurie/Jo (Little Women)
17) DG/Cain (Tin Man)
18) Audrey/Cooper (Twin Peaks)
19) John/Delenn (Babylon 5)
20) John/Aeryn (Farscape)
21) Sarah/Jareth (Labyrinth)
Honorable Mentions.........OH Boy! Are you in for it. The only reason this list isn't going into infinity is because I limited it to ships I've read fic for (either in the past or currently). The list below is also in no particular order.
-Dylan/Brenda
-Brian/Michael (Queer As Folk)
-Clark/Oilver (Smallville)
-Clark/Oliver/Lois (Smallville)
-Lois/Oliver (Smallville)
-Clark/Diana/Bruce (Smallville/Nolan Verse/JL/DCU) The Trinity was this close to being in my list but there just isn't enough fic (for shame) about these 3 to compete with the top 15 contenders.
-Darcy/Elizabeth (Pride and Prejudice)
-Duncan/Amanda (Highlander) Because as much as I enjoyed Tessa/Duncan, she never made Duncan laugh or smile like Amanda did.
-Duncan/Methos (Highlander)
-Duncan/Methos/Amanda (Highlander)
-Octavia/Agrippa (Rome)
-Octavia/Antony (Rome) I know, weird. I blame it entirely on Laine who writes them in such a way that it seems inevitable. Well, once you get past how much Octavia loathes Antony but that's just part of the fun.
-Octavia/Octavian (Rome)
-Jack/Jennifer (DOOL)
-Kara/Lee (BSG)
-Kara/Leoben (BSG) Yeah, I need help. But Kara/Leoben are just to hot for words. Plus, I love the push/pull between them.
