When You Walk You Leave Black Dirt In The Street

gacked from [livejournal.com profile] xlovelylightx :

Pick up to 10 ships.
Describe them in less than 15 words.
Have your flist guess the ship.

(I tried to pick different ships than I did last time, so this time it's harder.)

1.) Their relationship is a series-long shiptease. Thank god she has a motorcycle and a hitman boy-toy and he has... cold showers. Murphy/Harry, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] qualapec .

2.) They're both Other - it's only logical that they'd understand each other.* Spock/Uhura, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] ryanitenebrae 

3.) As much as neither wants to admit it, their love was real, even if everything else was a lie. Jack/Irina, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] ryanitenebrae 

4.) She's the rich girl with a heart of gold. He's the nice guy with a superiority complex and the ability to admit when he screws up. guessed by [profile] lalita_b 

5.) Their love story is one long fight over who gets to truly be Master. Integra/Alucard, guessed by [profile] ivy_chan .

6.) They're the one married couple currently on tv who don't hate each other. And have a sex life. Lily/Marshal, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] visualthinker11 

7.) "Well, my wits are in doubt and my shirt's inside out / and I got one eye looking off the the side / but with a menacing smile I'm gonna walk you down the aisle / Brookyn Girl, you're going to be my bride." Shinagawa/Adachi, guessed by neko_no_kaze.

8.) They're only opposites on the surface - at their bones they're exactly the same. Booth/Brennan, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] ryanitenebrae 

9.) The fool and his necromancer rule. guessed by [livejournal.com profile] ryanitenebrae and [livejournal.com profile] smillaraaq 

10.) She's in love with a dead guy and he's living with his father - but I'm sure the show will be canceled before these two will have a chance to make it work. Olivia/Peter guessed by neko_no_kaze.

*I mean this in a very meta-texual way and still I feel like I'm in danger of sounding like Elizabeth Bear. If I do, please tell me. I promise not to sic my flist, my husband, and out your online name if you do.

Damn, girl! You nailed 40% of this in one go! You were only wrong about 6. Since that is true about Zoe/Wash, I edited it to be clear that I am looking for a couple that is CURRENTLY on tv.

Ah-Ha! ^_^ Glad I got them, but I'm more glad that Jack and Irina made this list, as Lena Olin and Victor Garber are both amazing actors, and have an amazing amount of chemistry.

. . .Oh Victor Garber. Why are you not in more things? Why do you only play small roles and people's fathers?

Speaking of the latter, it seems he will eventually be on the show Glee as the main character's dad. (Also, I think you may like the pilot of that show. It was up on Hulu last I checked!)

Unless it's more fathers like Jack Bristow, with his own plotlines and romances and angst. But yeah, he's one of my favorite actors who never seems to have a leading role.

And Glee is on my list to check out - everyone seems to love it.
