So, I was sick, as you guys know, and whilst the flu is gone, I'm left with the after effects of it which is mostly just a bad cold :/ But I was bored last night. I did a bit of art for a BB but my Muse was just not in the mood to write so I got caught up in memes... :P I have a doc on my lappy with a whole bunch of memes that I've seen and thought were cool to do but didn't have the time for. Until now :P SO.... long story short, there's a bunch of memes below. Ignore the post if you want, interact with it if you want. Call me crazy if you want - I know I sometimes do :P

Pick 15 of your ships and write down a quote for each of them. Have your f’list guess the ships without using Google/IMDB.

01. “What I'm trying to say is that I'm in love with you.”
“The things guys'll say to get past second base.”
02. “I need a gun. A big, powerful gun”
“I've been waiting for someone to say that to me my whole life.”
03. “I hope I have enough detergent. How do you even have anything left to wear?” (Clark)
“You know, most guys wouldn't complain if I suddenly found myself shirtless.” (Lois)
04. “I’m thinking.”
“You’re talking!”
“I can do both.”
“I doubt that.”
“Well, you just lost your tip...”
05. “You were right. I shouldn’t have come home.”
“No, you just... should have never left. And you shouldn't leave again.”
06. “You said that, too.”
“Uh, you’re a good kisser. It was nice.”
“Is that why you asked me to stay?”
07. “By the way, I'm sorry I gave you such a hard time... for a while.” (Tristan)
“Oh, that's okay.” (Rory)
“Uh, it is?” (Tristan)
“No. But you're sad.” (Rory)
08. “Look at the bright side, I am usually within ten feet of you, so whatever terrible thing happens to you will happen to me too.”
“Comforting.”
09. “For that whole year I felt like I had this hole, like a... like I was missing something. Do you know what that was? It was you”
“You need to leave me alone. You’re not a part of my life.”
10. “*I’m* keeping the rocks from crushing you.”
“Okay, I'm not crushed. You can get off me now.”
“I'll take that as a ‘Thank you’.”
11. “Really? You know my shoulder’s still sore from when you shot me.”
“Then I saved your life.”
“And then I saved yours.”
“Great. Co-dependent relationship.”
12. “You need to stop doing that. “
“Doing what? “
“Assuming that I'll play the good guy because it's you who's asking.”
13. “You were barefoot.” (Mick)
“How can you remember that?” (Beth)
“Because I love you.” (Mick)
14. “I should have done something when I had the chance.”
“Yes, you should have.”
15. “How long have you felt this way?”
“Just since yesterday. It hasn't been long, but it hit me like a ton of bricks.”

I’ll give you a hint: if you haven’t already noticed this, and you probably have, I always write the name of the male first in my pairings. So all of the quotes will have the first part spoken by a male :D

Just for the fun of it, I'm doing another icon-fic challenge! Which means, *drum-roll*, you comment with the desired icon and I write a short piece to it. Drabble, vignette, oneshot if it really speaks to me!

Rules:
1. Please try to keep it to the shows/characters you know I write!
2. If you have a text only icon you like, comment with a ship you think it would apply to or would like to see a short to!
3. First five win! If I'm still in a writing mood, I'll see if I can't write a few more. So comment just in case!!

This time it's all about facts. Give me one fact, true or made up, about a character/couple and I'll drabble about it.

Give me a pairing and I'll tell you:
1. When or if I started shipping them
2. What I think their challenge is
3. What makes me happy about them
4. What makes me sad about them
5. What moment I wish had never happened
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other
7. My happily ever after for them

List your five favourite shows in the numbered spaces below and answer the following sixteen questions about them.

1. Buffy the Vampire Slayer
2. Gilmore Girls
3. Dark Angel
4. Avatar: the Last Airbender
5. Veronica Mars

1. Who is your favourite character in 2 (Gilmore Girls)? Rory, obviously :P Love Lorelai too, and Tristan ;), but I identify most with Rory and she’s my regular Mafia player – especially after that last Max Guevara assassination ;)

2. Who is your least favourite character in 1 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)? Willow. I don't hate her, just like her less than the rest. I think the reason I like her a little less is because of the character development. I know that’s surprising because most people like her because of it but I think there was just that *little* too much of it.

3. What is your favourite season in 5 (Veronica Mars)? The Logan/Veronica/Piz triangle is just great and I think it’s because Piz is such a lovable character. You just want him to be happy and although Logan had matured so much in the previous seasons, he still comes off less than stellar in comparison to Piz. That being said, LoVe is still my favourite pairing :P

4. What’s your favourite ship in 3 (Dark Angel)? Alec/Max - as if there'd be anything else!

5. How long have you watched 1 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)? Oooh, good question. Maybe since '99? Not sure. TV stations didn't air them straight here so it took a little while 'til I'd seen them all. Had to stay up late to watch them and I think I had to watch the last season or two on DVD later. Though, I did manage to get seasons 1-6 on VHS before DVDs became popular so I can still watch them on good ‘ole vids :P

6. How did you become interested in 3 (Dark Angel)? I don't even remember. I watched some of it when it aired here but didn't pick the fandom back up until I discovered fanfiction and then it was one of my first ones.

7. Who is your favourite actor in 4 (Avatar: the Last Airbender)? There're no actors - it's a cartoon :P But I think I love Zuko the most. He's just so complex and tortured :P

8. Which show do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Gilmore Girls or Veronica Mars)? Depends on my mood. I go through phases where I'll watch nothing but a given show over and over. The most recent of those was probably Gilmore Girls because I got sidetracked while making GIFs :P

9. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Dark Angel)? Uh, Buffy - because it has more. Unfortunately they took away from us the awesomeness that was Dark Angel and we're left with 'what if?'s :(

10. If you could be anyone from 4 (Avatar: the Last Airbender), who would you be? Katara. Didn't even need time to think. I think water would be my element though I don't necessarily think it's the best.

11. How would you kill off your favourite character in 1 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)? I think she's died enough but something absolutely EPIC! Like the end of season 5! She should go out with a bang, saving those she loves. There's no other way.

12. Would a 3/4 (Dark Angel/Avatar: the Last Airbender) crossover work out? Dark Angel and Avatar? Uh, I don't think so. Though I don't think any animated shows should crossover with live ones - can anyone else say ‘Space Jam’?

13. Pair two characters in 1 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple: Giles and Anya. Ever since Tabula Rasa - where I thought it was creepy, I could sort of see it. Strange, sure, but it could be beneficial.

14. Has 5 (Veronica Mars) inspired you in any way? Lots of ways. Did I tell you that my Mum used to be a private investigator?

15. Overall, which show has a better cast, 3 or 5 (Dark Angel or Veronica Mars)? Uh, Dark Angel I think. Both of the shows have had their stars become epically famous but I think that Dark Angel has a hard plot to pull off and they did extremely well!

16. Which has better theme music, 2 or 4 (Gilmore Girls or Avatar: the Last Airbender)? Gilmore Girls, no contest. Where You Lead? Brilliant choice!!!

Ooh, these look like fun memes! I'm totally snagging all of them, lol.

For the quotes one:
3. Clark/Lois
7. Rory/Tristan

For the pairing one, I will go with: Rory/Paris, just to be different. :)

Yep, correct! And you know, I get half of my memes from you :P And sorry for not completing this earlier - I was in a rush and wanted to let you know you were right :P

1. When or if I started shipping them I've never shipped them.
2. What I think their challenge is Ooh,probably balance. They're such opposites in so many ways that I think a major hurdle would be to pull enough of their similarities together to make things work. It'd definitely be doable! :D
3. What makes me happy about them That they learned to see past their own issues long enough to get to really know one another. In many ways they're traveling the same way, just on different roads.
4. What makes me sad about them That they no just how to hurt the other because they know each other well enough. Even in the beginning. Like in 'The Deer Hunters'.
5. What moment I wish had never happened The glue gun incidents. I know that sounds stupid but every time I read an interaction between the two of them in any fic, there's usually a mention of glue guns or the creativity table she had. It's trite.
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other Tristan. Probably for both of them :P He was the best person I could ever think of for them to fight over :D
7. My happily ever after for them Definitely in each others lives whether they're in a romantic relationship or not. I think they're too valuable for the other to lose.

No worries! For some reason, I thought you did ship them, which is why I asked. I must've mixed you up with someone else, lol. Thanks for answering anyway!

I think they're too valuable for the other to lose.
I agree! I can imagine them being friends forever. :)

That's okay, it was an interesting challenge! :D

For the quotes - is #13 Mick and Beth from Moonlight?

And if I've got that right, that's the pairing I choose for you in the "give me a pairing" part. ;-)

Yes! Mick/Beth (Moonlight)

1. When or if I started shipping them Oooh, not sure. Only recently though really. I mean, I watched the show when it first aired but the TV station here aired it sporadically and then just stopped before the end so I only saw about half of the eps. Don't remember what reminded me of it recently though :P
2. What I think their challenge is Other than the vampire/human relationship? It's a pretty big hurdle to get over. I guess, maybe, history. I mean, I know Angel was stalker-y before he and Buffy really started but Mick just takes it to a whole new level... :P
3. What makes me happy about them I guess that they're so realistic. They're not so overly in love that you wanna barf or poke out your eyes and there's no giant jealousy or image barriers.
4. What makes me sad about them Probably that they never really got a chance to be experimented on by the writers as a couple.
5. What moment I wish had never happenedNone. I liked all of the eps and the progression of them :D
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other Josef and Beth together would be alright for me. There was a connection there and it could be easily played up. Probably is. I don't think I like any of the female characters enough to give them Mick for eternity :P
7. My happily ever after for them Ooh, as weird as this sounds, I'd go with some Romeo&Juliet styled ending. One of them dying and the other taking themselves out. I know, I'm weird...

And I SO have to do some icons for them - I still don't have one :/
