Save me from this boooooredom...

People next door having loud party so I can't sleep *stabbity*

I can't bring myself to write after finishing the remix story and I've skipped back +160 on the flist so I'm taking a leaf from keepaofthecheez's book and presenting my top 10 pairings. But wait! I hear you cry. You keep lumping us with all these *gen* stories. Who are you and why are you proclaiming to be a shipper?? Believe me (although you may not believe me after reading more than say... 2 of my fics), I'm a big ol' sap. I just can't seem to... write that way. Heh.

So, below the cut are my pairings for the ages. Be wary, clips below and comments on the pairings so there may be spoilers but I tried to mostly find non-spoilery clips. (Nothing spoilery from currently airing shows).



10. Felicity and Ben -

You're running away from me now... aren't you?? I got completely and surprisingly sucker punched by this show and it didn't help that I saw the last episode of season one and the brain meltingly hot face-grab-kiss as my first episode and was completely addicted (and never liked Noel because of it...)

9. Buffy and Angel -

They were DOOMED but they loved each other but still ultimately DOOMED. Didn't stop me from being completely in love with them together and a small part of me still is. A teeny tiny spark that still sekritly squees into her fists if ever in the mood for something sappy and DOOMED.

8. Wesley and Fred/Illyria -

Noticing a theme? DOOOOOOOMED. But interesting. So completely interesting. I despised Wesley when he first came to Buffy but he slowly and surely won me over. Might have had something to do with him going all darkside for a while there... The unrequited thing never really grabbed me but Wesley grieving and keeping Illyria around as a kind of reminder was just... powerful. Don't clicky if you haven't seen the last episode of Angel and want to.

7. Willow and Tara -

I just... can't describe how much I love them, even though I was conflicted for a long time because of a pairing higher up in the list. They deserved to be happy and I know that wasn't going to happen in a Joss world but I couldn't help it. I WANTED THEM TO BE HAPPY!!!

6. Rory and Dean -

I could not withstand the cute. Gilmore Girls and Felicity are basically my saccharine sweet fix in amongst my angst. I loved these two together and what? Who is this Jess guy? Wait, what are you doing to Cute!Dean?? Oh my god NOOOOOOO!! Even youtube was against me on this one. I plugged in a Dean and Rory search and it kept coming up with Rory/Jess. *glares*

5. Oz and Willow -

See my conflict? See? But who could resist this??

Willow: Hi.
Oz: Oh, that's what I was going to say.

I just... yeah.

4. John and Rodney -

I'm going pairing without actually making it necessarily "romantic" pairing in the traditional sense. I have another one of these in the list and there is nothing you can do about it. Mwahaha. Basically, I love their interaction, I love seeing them on screen together and it just... works. They bicker, they care and you just want to squeeze them both and knock their heads together at the same time.

3. Sam and Dean -

See what I did there? Again, not strictly "romantic" but these two are definitely in a loving relationship and genuinely care about each other and we have to talk about them hugging more but that's just one small complaint. Maybe they could have sessions with the Petrellis.

Peter: See, I'm touching my brother's face and it's okay and he's not squirming.
Sam and Dean: *Blink blankly at each other*

2. John and Aeryn -

I hunted for ages just to find this one particular scene because it killed me completely dead. I love them together and even though I have a not-so-secret yen for Daniel/Vala, this is just... romance.

1. Wash and Zoe -

There's no will they/won't they. There's no triangle. There's just two married people completely in love with each other and... it works. It's compelling and watchable and I want MORE of it. But it's Joss so yeah, you know it's ultimately DOOOOOOOOOOMED!!
