You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Thrive to spite them

I remember the first slash story I read -- I think it was Ducan and Richie or maybe Ducan and Methos (more likely that) and I just didn't get it. Couldn't see the sexy.

Then I read another and I got it (I think it was a better story).

I'm not very OTP. In fact the only OTP I have is the one that's most shameful -- Sayid/Shannon. Yes. I know.

The most unlikely Due South pairing I like is Vecchio/Turnbull -- I think I've read all the good stories (and there aren't more), I can't tell you why but I like the pairing. And Kowalski/Turnbull. But not really Fraser/Turnbull -- doesn't ping for me. But I lke almost every other pairing.

With BtVs, I really enjoy reading Spike/Xander, but at the same time I don't really believe they'd hook up -- Xander has too many vamp issues.

But I'm open to almost any other pairing.

The other night I was wondering if anyone had ever written a Gilmore Girls Luke/Rory. But someone, somewhere probably has -- I'm sure every pairing has been written. But I was kind of wanting a twisted, wrong story from someone who writes well. Just out of curosity.

Hey. New board.

Dude, Rory/Luke almost writes itself. It's a bit squicky, but not too bad for me. The hard part would be writing Lorelai's reactions.

Hell, Rory/Lorelai almost writes itself, and you KNOW it's out there. That disturbs me.

There's Buffy/Dawn/Joyce.

I've read TWO Buffy/Mr. Pointy stories.

Someone has written everything. No matter how freaky the pairing it's out there somewhere.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Quiz: What's everybody's most shameful OTP? What pairing do you love to read and feel bad about loving to read it? Any fandom.

Pacey/Joey from Dawson's Creek. A;though I am more ashamed about the show than the pairing.

Ouch. Splinters.

Pretty much my reasoning on the shamefulness of Rory/Paris, actually. Because the first season was great, but every week I wonder more and more why I keep watching...

Also, is there any good fic about Lilly Rush from Cold Cash Files? I am sort of fadcinated with her, but I suspect there are only schmoopy hot partner guy/Lilly fics, so i am ascared to look.

OTP? wassat? *g*

I have an OT3, though. Not much into OTPs, although I suppose you could say I cut my teeth on Mulder/Scully. But I'm not embarrassed about it.

Hey. New board.

Darn you, wee Plei! Our conversation over in B and A inspired me to read some Buffy girlslash. And now I might have to finish my dusty old Great Willow/Tara AU Fic that I started ever-so-long ago.

Sometimes I wish I were less ambitious with my fic. I'm several thousand words into two different fics that could easily turn into novels if I ever get around to finishing them. Hopefully the sixth Harry Potter book won't turn my Hermione/Ginny one into a useless mess.

EDIT: OH NOES! It looks like I may have lost what I had of that Willow/Tara. How could I have done that? Sad now.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

My OTP of shame is Grissom/Nick from CSI. At first I was skeptical, but then I read a couple of really good fics, and was hooked.

My anime OTPs all tend to be pretty canonical, with a fair number of canonical m/m pairings.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Most embarrassing occasional pairing: Buffy/Giles. Honestly, I'm embarrassed about having a OTP...I've become embarrassing shipper girl about MunchenKay forevah!1! I told myself I wouldn't, damn it. But, yeah, I argue with people...pick out shippable moments and all of it.
