"How can the Ultimate Slash Madness Tourney NOT be going McShep's way!?"
Maybe because it's been off the air for almost four years and the producers tried very hard (and failed) to dampen down any hint of slashiness for the last two seasons?
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Also, Dean/Castiel's just hotter.

D/C probably has more canon support than any pairing I've ever seen that hasn't actually been realized onscreen. Dean's take on the matter is still up for debate, but I don't really think Cas' is at this point.

Crap, does that mean I have to start thinking about which pairing is stronger against Teen Wolf if Sherlock/John and Dean/Castiel go up against each other?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not feeling the allure of the Beacon Hills calling all the writers and artists over to their side, shirt?
I *love* the show. It's fun, and it's sad, and it's got people with really good hearts who aren't sappy--they're our heroes, but it's not preachy in a Smallvillian kind of a way, There's a lot of sweet left in it still.
And a fair amount of stupid--I don't get how werewolves got as far as they did, if Derek is a reasonable sample of same. Hanging out around high schools looking for social outcasts and gives them confidence as well as heals their every ill. And then said rescuer makes it very clear who's the alpha in this group of broken and abused kids. ::shakes head:: I can't believe the number of "Well, I didn't have the full use of my legs in high school--of course she should become a half-animal with no physical impediments, and you can't judge her."
Isn't that the focus of a well-told story...that you do judge their experiences, because you feel you've been given enough information on them along the way Too much in medias res and you lose touch with who they are.
Also, Sterek with either be canon or...::deliberately waves pride flags over the lead's heads::..
I reserve the right to delete this in the harsh light of day.

I actually haven't watched any yet, ita. I'm at the point where I'm just digging in my heels and being contrary because it seems like everyone's on the Teen Wolf bandwagon right now.

The show's awesome. The ship's... well, Greensilver says Nerd/Clam. Which, fine. Nerd/Clam is all well and good. But I so totally DO NOT SEE IT.

There's essentially nothing in the show itself to support the ship, but if them winning the competition results in Tyler Hoechlin macking on a male co-star in behind-the-scenes footage I won't be too broken up about it.
Besides, maybe a loss will bring out the competitive instinct in Jeremy Carver...
