Like Ships Colliding In The Night

[redbrunja]

gacked from portions_forfox:

I think I'm going to reprise a meme from ye ages past, because I'm bored and I like to make fandom-y lists and also, as the title would suggest, I like to ship.

(I'm going to be kind of throwing ships onto these lists, in an attempt to shake things up and maybe mention ships I don't often do. But don't worry, some of my old stand-bys are here.)

TOP 10 PAIRINGS OVERALL. as of right now.

Mako Mori/Raleigh Becket
Sif/Loki
Carol Danvers/Jessica Drew
Kate Bishop/Clint Barton
Stephanie Brown/awesomeness and also orgasms and also I would love it if someone would write....
Jason Todd/Stephanie Brown because that needs to exist in the world.
Kate Daniels/Curren
Katara/Zuko (I came across this the other day and all my feelings were reawakened.)
Natasha/Clint
Allison/Scott

TOP 3 LOVE TRIANGLES/THREESOMES. (you see what I did there? with the three threesomes? that is because there was no way I could come up with five.)

Scott/Allison/Isaac
Harry/Hermione/Ron
Steve/Natasha/Bucky

TOP 5 CANON PAIRINGS.

Ben/Leslie
Alana/Marko
Tony/Pepper
Anastasia/Dimitri
Lizzie/Darcy

TOP 5 “NOT MY FAVE, BUT A VERY NICE ALTERNATE CHOICE” PAIRINGS.

Bruce/Jane
Bruce/Darcy
Dick/Artemis
Sheriff/Melissa (This pairing is in this section because I didn’t know where else to put it.)
Leslie/Ann

TOP 5 “WTF THAT MAKES NO SENSE OTHER PEOPLE DON’T REALIZE HOW AWESOME IT IS….. BUT I LOVE IT!” PAIRINGS.

Gigi Darcy/Caroline Lee
Steve/Darcy
Olive/Mr Griffith
Neville/Luna (Neville would just think Luna is so amazing, guys, he would be feel so lucky to be dating her.)
Derek/Julie (Kate Daniels books)

TOP 5 “I JUST DON’T FEEL WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS FEELIN’” PAIRINGS.

Lydia/whichever alpha twin she’s dating
Lydia/Scott
Kahlan/Cara
Cora/Stiles (I would be into this, in canon especially, just because it could give us a chance to get to know Cora, but as it stands, I’m bitter because they’re teasing a relationship the writers aren’t going to pursue and they’re not doing any of the meaty emotional things they should be doing with Cora and Derek).
Isaac/Allison I WANT to like this, because it has all the makings of things that I love, pretty neatly summed up in the one scene but I just… I’m not feeling it consistently. I’ll get flashes (motorcycle hotwireing, hello). I feel like I just need to read that one, long, (hard), fanfic that’s going to suck me in (that’s what he said).

TOP 5 “I HOPE THESE DIE” PAIRINGS.

Aang/Katara (FOREVER BITTER)
Loki/Clint and/or Natasha.
Raleigh/Chuck. I do not understand how someone could watch Pacific Rim and ship this instead of Mako/Raleigh. Like, I just do not understand. At all. In any way, shape, or form.
Loki/Thor. In solidary with qualapec.
Tony/Pepper/Bruce. I see what you're doing here.


So, yeah, come talk to me about these ships.

Okay. So. I somehow never saw Thor before this week (really not sure how that happened.), but through fandom knew Sif/Loki was a ship. I'm just not sure... how this became a ship. I want to know! Tell me why you love them as a ship, what you like to see in fic with them, whatever you want.

Also Neville/Luna are awesome. I feel like he would get her weirdness and they could go on trips together to look at plants and animals.

Basically, Sif/Loki as a pairing exploded when a bunch of awesomely talented people saw it and started writing amazing fics.

I knew going into Thor that someone on my flist with good taste loved that ship, so I had my eye out for it, and the explanation at the bottom of this fic (http://archiveofourown.org/works/199562) really sums up the grounds for it in the movie.

FYI, here is my fic tag:

Things I like to see in fic:

-Sif topping Loki and Loki loving it
-Loki thinking his feelings are unrequited
-Loki crushing on Sif from childhood

Also Neville/Luna are awesome. I feel like he would get her weirdness and they could go on trips together to look at plants and animals.

That is exactly why I think they would be super awesome together.
