John/Aeryn is my favourite ship of all time (there's even a picspam about that somewhere in this comm. Why it pwns every other ship you can think of *laugh*) None can ever compare so I won't even try. Ok, I just compared it with Peter/Olivia, but not the overall otp XD
The best thing about a these kinds of love triangles is you can't blame the guy/girl in the middle. Aeryn wasn't betraying John and Peter didn't even know. Makes the angst more fun.
But Olivia/Peter has a long way to go to catch up with the epicness of John/Aeryn, in my book. Still fun though.
*laugh* nah you can't. Well you can totally blame alt!Olivia. She was mean and manipulative and knew what she was doing all along. But yeah, you can't really blame Peter. I have vbene watching all of Fringe the past week or so and s3 I spent squeeing over Peter/Olivia going "omg they are so cuuuute, but argh I can't stand it! It's so wrong and it will end in tears! Just like it did with John and Aeryn."
Peter/Olivia will never reach their epicness, ever. I never compare complete otps (I mean this was just one tiny part) to John/Aeryn. Because they will always win (I built a whole picspam around that once). So I stow them away and compare the rest of my ships with eachother XD
Oh, i'm so happy someone did this. I'm on the last fringe ep of season 2 as we speak, but I already know all about the alt!Olivia etc.
I almost didnt want to watch Fringe, because of how similar the stories are, just because i could not go through the angsty shippy heartbreakyness that J/A did all over again. I'll always love John and Aeryn just that bit more than any other ship, but I do adore Peter and Olivia. Peter and real Olivia, that is. ;)
Thing is, as similar as they are, they are also so vastly different. In Farscape everything was so real and true. The John on Talyn was real and he was Aeryn's and he died tragically in her arms and that broke her completely. The other John still loves her with all his heart but she just can't take the heartbreak. But Peter/alt!Olivia is all lies. He is loving the "right" one and he doesn't know, while the alt is just manipulating him. He is ready to "switch" so to speak, make it right. Because in this case there is a right. What made Farscape so utterly heartbreaking is that there was no wrong. No clone. If one of them was the real John and the other the copy we will never know, because it doesn't actually matter. In Fringe it's all Olivia. She can't stand it
