Sailing, we are sailing...

doyle_sb4 once made a list of all her Buffy ships—I believe it came to the fifties. I doubt I have that many in all my fandoms. Let me count, shall I?


Lord of the Rings

I don't really ship in this fandom, but I'm a vehment anti-slasher. That's why I don't read LotR fanfic. I made a Sam/Rosie icon too. And in previous generations, Beren/Luthien is so beautiful and sad!

Harry Potter

Harry/Ginny. A lot of H/H shippers seem to assume that all R/Hr peeps ship R/Hr first and H/G on the side, but I read CoS first, and became a H/G shipper. I thought vaguely that

Ron/Hermione might happen, but didn't actively ship it until the Yule Ball, when I squeed extremely loudly at all the H/G and R/Hr-ness.

I do, however, have a sneaking fondness for Draco/Ginny. It's my guilty pleasure ship.

I also ship Bill/Fleur, and Charlie/Cho. *waves at itsuwari* That's my fanon-only ship. (But wouldn't it ROX if JKR wrote it that way?) I also think Arthur/Molly, Percy/Penelope and Fred/Angelina are the only pairings for these characters, but I don't ship them as such.

In the parents generation, I ship James/Lily, and could see unrequited Severus/Lily. Also Remus/Lily, before she went out with James, would be very sweet. I don't know why, but Sirius/Lily squicks me. I see them as having a brother/sister type friendship.

I like Sirius/Narcissa. So sue me. I have a yen to write, not Victim!Narcissa with ManlyRescuerer!Sirius, but a realistic fic where she's torn between Sirius and Lucius, and marries Lucius because her ambition wins out.

Sirius/Remus is the only slash ship that I could ever see as realistic, though I don't read it. As I'm a solid canon shipper usually, I can't help but wonder what this says about canon.

Star Wars

Han/Leia—they're the best. And they're funny, and 'I love you.' 'I know.' is the best line EVER.

Anakin/Padmé, beautiful and tragic.

Owen/Beru. The most overlooked couple in SW. I love them both.

Obi-Wan/Siri from the Jedi Apprentice books. I never could see Obi with anyone but her.

Luke/OC. Because I hate Mara Jade. And crush on Luke. What can I say.

Luke/Leia—AU, before you all start killing me. I don't ship this, but my subconcious seems to (see here and here. I think it would have been like A/P, the knight courting the princess (queen), but without the disturbing undertones.

Sixteen in total, out of three fandoms. 5.33 ships per fandom. Doyle, you have me run into the ground.

Yes! I completely agree with the Luke/OC. Mara just isn't worthy and has no business being paired off with him. Then again, I've been crushing on Luke for years, hence my username. lol

I've actually seen the Luke/Leia pairing before, though it's not for me, and there are alot of people out there that write AU just so that they can disregard the whole brother/sister connection and make them a couple.

Great big WORD to that, Jade. :)
