hahaha let's not pretend this journal has any deeper purpose than memesheeping

FIRST OFF, I'M BORED, YO:

Ask me a fandom, and I will tell you my:

+ OTP
+ Runner-up
+ Honorable mention(s)
+ Crack pairing(s)
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't


Although I feel like my shipping tendencies are tragically obvious in almost all my fandoms, so, well. But maybe I will surprise you!


I can feel the weight of October pressing and maaaaan I still have no idea what I'm doing for Nano. CRAP. It doesn't help that Sophi is my only ~real life~ friend doing it this year and half the fun of doing Nano is being eons ahead of all the real life friends, except for Sophi because Sophi exists mostly to write like the wind and make the rest of us feel bad about ourselves. THIS YEAR, THE REST OF US IS ME. She's already got a head start and is fully plotted, because she is a crazy person. So that'll be fun. What about you kids though, you doing it?

I alsoooooo booked a flight to Austin the weekend of my birthday. MATT'S EL RANCHO HERE I COME, HELL YEAH.

CAM/HODGINS. To me this isn't even crack anymore, I have convinced myself. I wish I had a Cam icon.

Re: edit edit edit

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-10-01 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
IT IS SO OBNOXIOUSLY HARD TO FIND NICE CAM ICONS, and/or icons of anyone on Bones whose surname does not being with a B. I had to break down and make some of Cam myself, which I don't like to do :(

AND MAN, Cam/Hodgins! I wish there was fic. Or rather I wish I wasn't too lazy to look for it, lol :(

+ OTP:
Tom/B'Elanna! OH MAN, when they got married it was the THRILL OF MY ELEVEN-YEAR-OLD LIFE. They still give me way more feelings than a Voyager pairing should.
+ Runner-up:
Harry/Seven? I... don't even know.
+ Honorable mention(s):
I ship Janeway/Chakotay kind of like you ship your parents: sure, it makes sense, but please let's not mention the sex. And I like Doc/Kes.
+ Crack pairing(s):
Seven of Nine/a ridiculous crush on B'Elanna Torres.
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't:
Doc/Seven, Neelix/Kes, Janeway/the Devore inspector dude in that one episode. Also, no one likes them but it needs to be said: CHAKOTAY/SEVEN IS SUPER GROSS, because I don't care how old she actually is, she's got the maturity of a 18-year-old kid and he is way too mature to be macking on that, I don't care how much of a hottie with a body she is.

I am going to throw your request back at you and ask for FNL! Or XF, but that would feel somewhat pointless.

I waaant to do Nano and am highly tempted to sign up for it, but I am 99% certain I would just use it as an excuse to write 50,000 words (uh, give or take a few thousand) of amazingly self-indulgent fic and I have papers and a pretty big research project due in November, so ultimately I feel like Nano is probably not the best idea. It's not like I got anywhere with it last year, anyway. :/

XF IS SO EASY:
+ OTP: MULDER AND SCULLY, ALWAYS AND FOREVER

Anyway.

+ OTP:
Coach/Mrs. Coach, no elaboration necessary.
+ Runner-up:
Mock me all you want but I kind of love Tyra/Landry. I'D EXPLAIN BUT I'D SPOIL YOU, SO.
+ Honorable mention(s):
Matt/Julie, kind of sort of Tim/Jason, but in that halfhearted way I am with boyslash. THERE ARE NO GIRLS, IT'S BORING.
+ Crack pairing(s):
I think [livejournal.com profile] fated_addition did Landry/Lyla once I think maybe? THE IDEA MAKES ME LOL. Although actually I really like your suggestion of Smash/Lyla. Actually I liked Smash/Tyra too, although that's not really crack since it was canon for five seconds. OH, BUT MOST ESPECIALLY LYLA/TYRA.
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't:
Tim/Lyla, Jason/Tyra, I don't know, I feel like there are more.

I DON'T KNOW, I always do it and I always have so much shit in November but it's so much fun that I always do it anyway. I didn't finish last year either. I DIDN'T EVEN COME CLOSE. You are smarter than I! What self-indulgent fic would you write though?

Hmmm. This sounds like fun.

How about West Wing?

+ Honorable mention(s):
Sam/Ainsley, CJ/Danny, Toby/Andie
+ Crack pairing(s):
HMMMMM. CJ/Sam, maybe?
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't:
CJ/Toby. I don't know! I love their friendship, I do, but I never got vibes off of it.

Also hey girl, long time no see!

[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/spyglass_/ 2009-09-28 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahhh, Josh/Donna how I love thee.

I have to agree with you here. I've never quite seen CJ/Toby as my favorite pairing for either of them. I love them both, and I could go for them romantically, but I always got more from Toby/Andy and CJ/Danny.


And yes, I know! I've been absent but I'm making a comeback ;) Hope you've been well!

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-09-28 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, exactly! I can see where the CJ/Toby comes from, and I can even kind of almost get on board with the idea that they had a thing way way back, but I just can't get into wanting them together. They just don't seem to be a ship of the future!

I have, thanks! Hope you have too.

Blair/Serena
+ Runner-up:
NATE/VANESSA, Rufus/Lily
+ Honorable mention(s):
I really liked Dan/Serena back in season 1, but that ship has saaaaaaaailed. I'm not watching this season but AS FAR AS I KNOW, after breaking up for the 48392403th time they found out they have a sibling in common (who I think has shown up, idk) and are also about to be stepsiblings. Honestly though, that stuff doesn't deter me as much as the fact that I don't really care for Dan anymore.
+ Crack pairing(s):
Chuck/Serena, WHO ARE ALSO STEPSIBLINGS, I blame [livejournal.com profile] veils. Also Vanessa/Serena. IDK, APPARENTLY I LIKE MOST PAIRINGS THAT INVOLVE SERENA.

I HATE CHUCK/BLAIR WITH THE PASSION OF A THOUSAND SUNS

Okay so the thing about Glee is I do not, at this point, really ship anyone at all. Soooooo! I had to improvise.

+ OTP:
Emma/awesomeness
+ Runner-up:
Platonically: Kurt and Mercedes! Tina and Mercedes! Tina and Kurt! Artie and everyone, with hopes that he gets some plot play soon! Kurt and Finn! All the Glee kids, honestly, although I am not so much a fan of Rachel and not impressed with the way she treated her friendship with Tina in the last week, so I am not as into platonically shipping her with everyone else.
+ Honorable mention(s):
VICTOR GARBER/SINGING, PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN, SHOW.
+ Crack pairing(s):
SUE/PUCK.
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't:
Finn/Rachel, Quinn/Puck, VARIOUS OTHER THINGS.

How do you feel about Glee ships, Z? And who are your favorites? I need to know these things!

Idk, I care to some degree about Bryce/Sarah? But I don't actively ship it.
+ Crack pairing(s):
You can't really get cracky without delving into PEOPLE I HATE, so does one-sided Bryce/Chuck count?
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't:
Casey/Chuck. Ew.

HEY GIRL HEY. SUP!

i'd love to do nano, except i can barely write a bitsy little short story so i highly doubt i can crank out that many words, or even develop a plot long enough. how are you? is your sister ok? i'd love to try to hang out sometime again :)

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-09-29 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
Nano writing is different from normal writing though -- I mean you do need a plot, but you're so focused on the word count that quality starts going out the window (you can always edit in December) and it's... I don't know. In that way it's easier than a short story. It's a really great exercise

Oh god, that whole thing turned out to be a FARCE. Apparently she just fainted (because of a combination of low blood pressure and dehydration), but when my mother tried to pick her up she started shaking (which happens when you move fainted people quickly!) and they thought it was a seizure and totally freaked me/everyone out. And wasted a trip to the emergency room. But it turned out fine. And yeah we totally should! Maybe this weekend?

[identity profile] palmaceae.livejournal.com 2009-09-29 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
i won't be able to do anything for the next two weekends because sept/oct is jewish holiday hell...i'm not kidding, we go through THREE major jewish holidays including two fasts in 4-5 weeks. you miss a lot of school sometimes which is so not fun. but i could do something during the weekdays...all the haunted houses are starting to open for halloween, wanna go to one? i don't know how into scary stuff you are, but i'm totally into it.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2009-09-29 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
I can do a weekday! And while I would not describe myself as into scary stuff, I LOVE THE HAUNTED HOUSES. I'm totally a screamer though, BUT LET'S NOT LIE, it's better that way, because if they know you scare easier they come after you more.
