OMG, I just went into sideways land. I clicked on a link I didn't realise was to a Parker/Eliot community. And they're all really mad about the ongoing lack of consummation of P/E and bemoaning the lack of chemistry of P/H.

CRACK FIENDS!!!!

They're the clearest ship in most of my shows! How can you even....how...you are crazy people.

Show back in two months. I can only hope those people continue to have their hearts ground under the unfeeling heels of Devlin and Rogers.

I clicked on a link I didn't realise was to a Parker/Eliot community. And they're all really mad about the ongoing lack of consummation of P/E and bemoaning the lack of chemistry of P/H.

Wha...? I mean, I get someone liking the idea of P/E, but frick, are they actually watching the show at all?

It's bizarre, the flavors of crazy that human brains can invent. There are fans whose sole interest in any show is to pick a 'ship and then demand that the whole show revolve around that 'ship. The crazier ones of the crazies pick non-canon 'ships, or shows that just don't focus on 'ships, I guess to make it unlikely that they will ever get what they want, so they'll get to complain and feel "persecuted" a lot. It's just weird.

I can see P/E. But compared to P/H or H/E (or all three)? Doesn't even rate.

Yeah--I mean, ship what you like, but the show's been pretty clear that Parker/Hardison is endgame and P/E is filial, so the fan that's spitting nails? Just setting themselves up for ongoing pain.

Exercise your needs in fanfiction, and don't hold it against the show. They've been really clear about what they're doing so far.

I mean, they could change their minds, but they've been pretty consistent so far, so to complain they haven't changed their minds yet. Weirdos.

I am trying to think of who I would pair with Elliot. Not Parker.

So far? Eliot gets the guest star. I think he's gotten the most, canonically. Which, to me, fits the character.

But the P/H 'ship is the one the show itself is showcasing. And I adore it because they are so sparky and yet awkward with each other.

I love Parker/Hardison. I mean, a ficcer could probably make a case I could buy for lots of combinations, but it's not because Parker/Hardison is wrong. also, I love pretzels.

I could have seen some casual Eliot/Sophie at some points.

Eliot/Sophie

Oh, def. Yum. And of course I keep holding out hope for Hardison/Eliot, but not in a craxy demanding way, just in an I'm-so-wired-that-way way. But point is, H/P is delightful and putting it down because your elaborate fantasy is Actual Trufax In Your Mind is just... yeah.

And in let-me-show-you-my-hyphen-abusing-id news, I apparently want to see Eliot and/or Hardison with anyone and/or anyone.
