With all the friending memes going around (LJ revival for the win!) I figured that a meme would be a nice way to break the ice... and it would be way more fun for me personally than writing up an about-me post (like like this meme is restricted to new members of my flist, or anything crazy like that).

So, without further ado...

Fandom Tennis Match Meme!

Okay, here's how this is going to work. You comment with a fandom question. I answer it and then ask you a question that has some thematic relevance to the question you asked me.

My tags and my icons are good places to get ideas about what fandoms/ships/etc I'm interested in. Also, my bulletproof kinks/tropes tag is here.

The answer to both of those questions is: I want Natasha to be awesome and central to the plot.

More specifically, I want a fantastic red room romance between Natasha and James, with more emphasis on Natasha and her breaking out, and her and Steve's emotions when they realized that James is alive.

In Avengers 2, I want her to continue her Avengers trend of being the most competent badass one the team, and I want her to have a pivotal role at various points in the narrative, like she did in Avengers 1.

Your question: Natasha pairings you enjoy, and why.

I WANT ALL OF THIS. Especially how she needs to have an important role once again (and also her own movie). Though I mostly want to know more about James and Natasha because I hear that's a THING and I like both of them and want to ship it, but I don't really know about them together (all my marvel comics knowledge is through osmosis).

Well, Clint/Natasha for OTP because master assassins in love, is like, my favorite thing. SHIP WAS MADE FOR ME. But I also like Natasha/Steve because their brief interactions in the movie, was, you know, brief, but I liked the potential and idea of them. Nat/Bruce BECAUSE IT WOULD BE FASCINATING, given their dynamic in the movie and how that amount to weird friendship by the end of the avengers? Yeah, I am into it. And vaguely Natasha/Pepper because I shipped that a lot when Iron Man 2 came out but less so now after Avengers, but it's still something I enjoy.

It could be really good? We'll see.

SO TRUE. God, I love them both so much.

And vaguely Natasha/Pepper because I shipped that a lot when Iron Man 2 came out but less so now after Avengers, but it's still something I enjoy.

Personally, I really, really love the thought of them as friends, rather than lovers.
