Challenge #12

In your own space, resurrect an old meme. Have fun with it!

So since this is supposed to be old, I went back and looked through my old LJ entries. And since somebody on tumblr TQG chat didn't know what shipping was (what), I'm bringing back this ship meme!


♛: my “FOREVER” pairing

Arya/Gendry (GoT, ASoIaF)
Cloud/Tifa (FFVII)
Okay this list is going to be long- really anything I've written fic for, lbr

♔: my “sometimes” pairing (if i’m in the mood)

Brienne/Jaime
Sansa/Tyrion
Christopher/Barabas

旦: my “friends-with-benefits” pairing

Valkyrie/Thor
Batcat 

I usually use that kanji in the context of 旦那 (husband) actually, but I'm guessing they didn't have a better/SFW symbol? LOL

☆: my “adele” pairing (“WE COULD HAVE HAD IT AAAAAALL”)

Root/Shaw
Bran/Jojen
Sansa/Margaery
Bucky/Natasha
Jackson/April 
Jon/Dany
Mike/Ginny
Thor&Loki

This list could also be spitefully long, lbr. 

☁: my “angst” pairing

Dani/Grace
Gideon/Harrow
Red/Blue
Beth/Benny
Jon/Dany
Anakin/Padme
Anakin&Obi-Wan
WandaVision
Derek/Julie

Also pretty much every pairing I've written fic for. XD
 

✖: my “hate sex” pairing

Sansa/Yara
Root/Shaw
 

۞: my “working on it” pairing

I love Cloud/Tifa a lot. I mean I love most Cloud pairings, because really anyone that's being gentle with him makes me happy, but there's something about the vulnerability of being known and NOT known? Like, they each know some of the worst parts of each other, and yet at the same time, there is this breach between them that they are reaching across now that Cloud is back on the the outside. It's a little bit of nostalgia, a little bit of breaking down walls, and a lot of doing everything to have the other one's back when they need it now. It make me very happy.

Yes, they have such a lovely dynamic with so many layers! They were one of my first ships- it was so cool seeing the remake spur fandom up again! And the fanart people can make now is amaaazing!

[enemytosleep]

OMG yes the digital fanart now is next level.

Oh, thank you for resurrecting this old meme. Back in the day my writing was all about my OTP if not genfic, but now I'd find this more fun to do! Also yay for Brienne/Jaime (sometimes!)!

[nrgburst]

LOL for me as well- I used to Fervently Only OTP and now I'm like, ooooh, I could see how that ship could work!

Yeah, I just... refuse to accept GoT's ending as the actual ending for them- like whyyyyy would you just burn his character growth to the ground at the last minute. :((( There's so much amazing fic out there too, which helps a lot!

[paulamcg]

Luckily we don't have to accept the show's ending and can just wait for Martin to write a different one. :)

[nrgburst]

Oh gosh, I don't know that he's ever actually going to finish, especially now that there's so much pressure. But I sure hope he does! He just seems to be veeeery easily distracted.

[paulamcg]

Perhaps we'd better find a different ending in fanfic, instead. :)

Ooooh, a multishippers meme. I like this one. I might have to steal this one (I always run into trouble with the OTP memes, 'cause, well, my brain usually feels that all options are valid :D)

[nrgburst]

EXACTLY! I like my cake buffet style, tyvm.
