So, it turns out I have an OTP. Whodathunkit.

Whilst I can happily imagine any number of romantic/sexual attachments;

Sam/Maya, Sam/Annie, Sam/Mobile Phone, Sam/Chris, And then there were the Sam/Ray thoughts that made me giggle and mumble "a braver person than I", Gene/The Missus, Gene/Annie, Gene/Jackie, Gene/Ray, hell, even Gene/Chris ( Read more... )

When it really comes down to it, I am both vehemently and passionately committed to Sam/Gene as the over-arching partnership. That scares me. I didn't know I was so gaga about it. Since when did that happen?

This really tickled me. The 'since when did that happen' thing, at any rate. That's exactly what happened to me, albeit in a different fandom. I started off reading everything because, yeah, I'm a nosy creature and cannot resist a link - the mouse finger is triggered at the slightest rec - and one day I was trying to read something but all I could think was "This is just not right". I have no idea how I got from A to B, although I have a theory (which I have no intention of inflicting on you right now).

As to what you do with it...At first I just used to stare at it in disbelief, but I expect it was because I didn't understand what was going on. Then isiscolo diagnosed my condition and I've been fine ever since.

Now my OTP has its own room on my laptop for when it comes to visit ;-)

I'm not much of a reader. Most of the stories I have enjoyed in LoM fandom aren't Sam/Gene, or aren't even Sam and Gene gen. It's more to do with how much I think about the characters and how they slot together. It really surprises me that I'm so... manic about it.

Maybe I need to give my OTP it's own room...

Always water a OTP with 1 part squee for every two parts love. Water about once a week.

I keep waiting for Sam/Ray hatesex! to pop up, but this doesn't seem to be the fandom for it. I find I keep flipping back and forth from wanting an unsullied Sam & Gene friendship to of course they're doing it like bunnies OTP.
Also, I'm disturbed to report that I tried to write a Sam/mobile phone fic for you, and it's turned into utter crack. Sam is just a little too attached to his phone as is healthy. I blame you! Also, I don't own a cell phone, so I keep asking my peeps about their phones. Do you know how hard it is to ask these questions while avoiding giving a straight answer on *why* you want to know?!

I don't own a mobile either :D That's quite amusing.

Also, I am totally the same. Sometimes I despair of myself that part of me wants to sexualise their friendship when I just adore them as they are. Then I sexualise their friendship.

You're the second person to blame me for inducing insanity in the past day. What can I say? I try?
