Shippy meme

Meme snagged from penny_lane_42:

Comment on this entry with a pairing I ship from one of my fandoms and I will tell you:

1. When I started shipping them
2. What I think their challenge is
3. What makes me happy about them
4. What makes me sad about them
5. What moment I wish had never happened
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other
7. My happily ever after for them

It occurs to me that, since I rarely talk about any other fandoms, you probably don't KNOW what pairings I ship. (And, to be fair, with the exception of Veronica/Logan, I don't think there's any pairing that comes even close to the crazy fangirling that Spuffy inspires.) I don't really want to list them all out here, so how about I list the fandoms, and if you don't know which pairings I like in that fandom, ask and I'll tell you, then you pick one. Is that too complicated, lol?

BtVS and AtS (obviously), Veronica Mars, The West Wing, Friday Night Lights, How I Met Your Mother, Battlestar Galactica

Eh, two frakked up people doing what people do. I didn't care about either of them but I liked their relative partners.

I think I have a particular aversion to cheaters. I'm all for both of them frakking around and not knowing what they want and hurting each other, but don't marry other people and expect me to still sympathize with you.

I've seen a lot of Spuffy fic where Buffy's still dating Angel or Riley or whoever, but she's having sex with Spike - and it's the boyfriend who's at fault for standing in the way of the Spuffy. That bothers me a lot.

Yeah :(

At least admit your characters are at fault and flawed. I love a good flawed character but hate the excuses and delusion. At least Lex is completely insane, which I consider a valid excuse for many things :D
