Open to the floor - meme!

I really need to have more entries on this journal that aren't just book reviews, since that really isn't the main purpose I had for this journal. Oh well! For now, have a meme.

Comment with a fandom, and I'll tell you all about my ships.

One True Pairing Ship:
Canon Ship:
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
"You are one sick bastard" Ship:
"I dabble a little" Ship:
"It's like a car crash" Ship:
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship:
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship:
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:
"When all is said and done" Ship:

This intriques me so I'll bite. Due South.

[identity profile] wilderthan.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 10:07 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm, that's difficult. I only really have three 'ships for Due South!

One True Pairing Ship: Fraser/either Ray
Canon Ship: Diefenbaker/Food!
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Fraser/Francesca
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Uhh. I briefly thought Fraser/Maggie until they turned out to be brother and sister?
"I dabble a little" Ship: ...Fraser/his hat
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Fraser/Ray K/Ray V
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Ray K/Ray V
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Fraser/Elaine
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Fraser/Meg (since that's canon and I never felt it)
"When all is said and done" Ship: Fraser/Ray K

Fraser/Frannie makes me twitch for so many reasons. I love your canon pairing. That's pretty much perfect.

Dark is Rising please

One True Pairing Ship: I don't really have one, since I ship everything. But Will/Bran comes the closest.
Canon Ship: There isn't one, is there, really?
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Merriman/anyone?
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Simon/Jane or Simon/Barney. Don't look at me like that!
"I dabble a little" Ship: Owen/John.
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Will/anyone, all things considered...
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Will/Jane.
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Simon/Will. (It can be argued that no ship makes canon sense, with TDIR... so while I think Simon/Will is plausible...)
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Uhh, I don't think there is a ship like this in TDIR fandom.
"When all is said and done" Ship: Will/Bran.

Predictable: FFIV!

Slightly less: Firefly!

You can do either.

[identity profile] wilderthan.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 12:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Or both?

FFIV:
One True Pairing Ship: Edge/Rydia, I think.
Canon Ship: Cecil/Rosa.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Uhh. Tellah/anyone?
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Uh. Does Golbez/Cecil count? Not that I really 'ship it, but I've dabbled...
"I dabble a little" Ship: Cecil/Kain
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Kain/Rosa.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Um. Someone mentioned Edward/Rydia? Now I'm intrigued!
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Edge/Kain!
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Kain/Rydia. Okay, not everyone, but it's one I've come across that really makes me go bzuh??
"When all is said and done" Ship: ...Edge/Rydia, probably.

[identity profile] first-seventhe.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 12:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Edward/Rydia - I find intriguing, especially as a "passing love" thing rather than a "we get married and have 100 babies" type of love. It'd be sweet! She'd smack him around until he grew up, and he'd try to help her calm that terrible temper a little bit. He could teach her to play the harp. They could bond by talking about what happened while Rydia was growing up in the Land of Summons.

Especially because Edward in the DS is adorable, which helps.

Golbez/Cecil counts as sick, but I'd say it's a good kind of sick? ;)

Firefly:

One True Pairing Ship: Hmmm. I have no hard and fast opinions when it comes to Firefly shipping -- I'm flexible. Mal/Simon was my first, I think, so it holds a special place.
Canon Ship: Wash/Zoe.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Mal/Inara. I know, I know, contradictory, since I do love it, but... the way they are in canon, I find it hard to imagine it could actually happen. I love some fanfic with it, but...
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Simon/River.
"I dabble a little" Ship: Simon/Inara. Also, Mal/Simon/Inara. I almost have to write a long development fic for this, because I can see it working so well. Who votes yea?
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Well, um, haha, Mal/Inara?
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Jayne/Kaylee. Although I kind of am sold, I just don't know how to write it and might have to just ship from afar.
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Inara/River? The trouble is, I can see why most of the pairings might work. I mean, Inara looks after River, you can see River developing attachment, getting one of her weird ideas and poof...
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Simon/Kaylee. I can write it, get little snippets of feeling for it, but it mostly just leaves me cold.
"When all is said and done" Ship: Mal/Simon, probably.

I have found no place in this to mention Mal/River, yet I love that too!

I vote Y on threesome fic!!

I also vote Y on Mal/River. How absolutely awesome that would be.

One True Pairing Ship: I don't really have one?
Canon Ship: Steiner/Beatrix.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Brahne/anyone.
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: N/a.
"I dabble a little" Ship: Blank/Zidane.
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Steiner/Zidane? I kid. I don't ship much for FFIX.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Amarant/Freya.
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Vivi/Eiko? Haha.
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Uhh...
"When all is said and done" Ship: N/a.

Not a great 'shipper when it comes to FFIX, as I said.

Final Fantasy crossover fandom. ;-)

[identity profile] wilderthan.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh. Hm.

One True Pairing Ship: Gippal (FFX-2)/Edge (FFIV). I have no idea, now, how this came about, but I'm sure it was something to do with me and [livejournal.com profile] lassarina.
Canon Ship: Uhh. N/a.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Uhh.
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Hmm...
"I dabble a little" Ship: Kain/Seifer. No rly.
"It's like a car crash" Ship: Cloud/Leon. That totally counts.
"Tickles my fancy but not sold just yet" Ship: Quistis/Rydia. I think there was some discussion of this at some point and I'd almost like to write it.
"Makes no canon sense but why the Hell not" Ship: Squall/Aerith?
"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship: Uhh.
"When all is said and done" Ship: Edge/Gippal.

[identity profile] samuraiter.livejournal.com 2008-07-24 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
;-) If you write Quistis / Rydia, I'll gladly read it. ... Which reminds me that we ought to do more for the smut-a-thon or something.
