This isn't a meme response, but a request for your favorite "foeyay" fic, either one you have written or someone else's.

That is all. I share the foeyay.

It really depends on what your fandoms are. I loved Mistful's Harry/Draco fic, but they're all down now. Zutara ficcage is aplenty in Avatar fandom, I had a couple Leo/Karai recs for TMNT, Hakkai/Yaone for Saiyuki by redbrunja, etc. Name one!

"Give me one pairing and I will "compose" a floral bouquet that represents them - and, of course, give you either a link to a list so you can look up the secret meanings yourself or just copy below what the flowers mean."

I just had to say that that is an awesome meme.
