Snaggled from nakeisha

Name your 10 absolutely favourite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms.


1. Gibbs/Tony (NCIS)
2. Harry/Draco (Harry Potter)
3. Spike/Buffy (Buffy)
4. House/Wilson (House)
5. Willow/Tara (Buffy)
6. Dr Cox/JD (Scrubs)
7. Snape/Harry (Harry Potter)
8. Clark/Lois (Smallville, Lois & Clark: The new adventures of Superman)
9. Tony/McGee (NCIS)
10. Clark/Lex (Smallville)

Well, some from the same fandoms, but I don't have enough fandoms to pick one from each. They're not in any order. And some aren't really absolutely favorites, but I had to get up to ten somehow.

Fascinating. You have wonderfully varied tastes!

We only share one: Gibbs/DiNozzo; though I only came up with four myself.

I realized that they were quite varied as I wrote them. Several of them I love because of the trouble it is bringing them together but once they're together they'd be so much fun (like Harry/Draco, Harry/Snape, Dr Cox/JD). Others are just cute (Willow/Tara), or have interesting, great chemistry (Gibbs/Tony, Tony/Tim, House/Wilson, Spike/Buffy, Zane/Rikki).

I realized that they were quite varied as I wrote them.

Quite a few of them are very...uneven? Involving dominating, abrasive people together with people who are either submissive by character or by position. 6/10 I reckon. You've also got 3 and two halves that are enemies/in opposition in Canon.

Willow/Tara and Lois/Clark (and Buffy/Spike...sort of) are the only canon pairings, and Spike/Buffy and Clark/Lois are the only het pairings.

Well, I don't see them as uneven. I see them as one part being dominating, but the other one being very strong still.

Enemies are fun. Gives great chemistry (like Spike/Buffy shows, really).

*g* I was proud to get *any* het pairings in there. But Spike/Buffy is love ^^

We share a lot of pairings, actually :D Just Snarry... I'll never get that one but each their own.

Do I see a trend? Well... There's some boss/subordinate going on, then you love to pair up antagonists, and you like canon pairings. Not much of a trend, I guess.

*g* Snarry is a thing I like when it's extremely well-written - and usually when Harry's out of school (or a seventh year). It was also better before the book seven crap came out.

I think you have it down. I haven't really thought about the boss/subordinate thing - it's more how it's turned out because those characters play well off each other. Antagonists are no doubt favorites of mine to pair up. Canon pairings... well, I loved Spike/Buffy long before they got together ^^

I adore your icon!

[yaoifangirl16.livejournal.com]

XD Thanks!

Well, you're not adverse to canon pairings.

One trend I see is that you suffer from Hot Guy Syndrome, as shown by your desire to pair the really Hot Guys together *g*

[bananacosmic.livejournal.com]

*g* I blame the fact that those Really Hot Guys usually have great chemistry ;)
