I'm in a polly kind of mood!

[lirazel]

I have come to two conclusions:

1. Shipper Wars are stupid.
2. I miss choco_cherries and crossovers in general (the rest of this conversation will make more sense if you familiarize yourself with the comm. WHICH IS THE GREATEST COMM EVER).

These two conclusions have met each other and exploded into an idea of awesome: forget about pairing The Greatest Person in the Universe (aka Buffy Summers) with only people on her own show! Crossovers are better!

So I've decided that for the duration of silliness, whenever the Shipping Wars threaten to pop up, I will immediately wax poetical about my favorite Buffy ship. The catch: it's with someone who isn't even in the Buffyverse! People will become confused! And distracted! Scott Allie might make fun of me in a Q&A! Poor "Spray" fan! It'll be awesome!

But the question is: Who will be the other half of that ship? That's what this poll will help me determine!

I've already written Buffy/Tommy and you may have noticed me flailing with joy over John Crichton mentioning Buffy and we all know how I feel about anything remotely involving Enver Gjokaj, so they're the front-runners at this point. But I am open to suggestions! Convince me!


[Poll #1550370]

*Someone mentioned the idea of Enver playing Spike on Gabs' journal, and now I desperately want fic in which a post-"Chosen" heartbroken Buffy gets Victor imprinted with Spike's personality so that she can tell him all the things she never got to say to him....

Emmie, could I write that for the "Who Are You?" fic-a-thon?

UM I WEIRDLY LOVE THE IDEA OF TED/BUFFY. NO REALLY. HE COULD BE GOOD FOR HER, AND IT'D BE ADORABLE AND SHE'D BE SO WEIRDED OUT BY LILY BEING WILLOW'S DOPPELGANGER AND SHE'D BOND WITH ROBIN OVER GUNS AND SMACK BARNEY DOWN AND HOLY GOD I MIGHT WRITE THIS. LAUREN YOU ARE AWESOME

I'M KIND OF FALLING IN LOVE WITH IT, TOO. I KIND OF ADDED IT LAST MINUTE, AND THEN I WAS "NO WAIT THAT'S AWESOME."

IF YOU WROTE IT, I WOULD DIE OF HAPPINESS FOREVER.

*needs a Ted icon*

[ava-leigh-fitz.livejournal.com]

IT ACTUALLY IS. I MEAN, HONESTLY, IT WOULD BE ADORABLE. SMG SHOULD TOTALLY GUEST STAR FOR AN EPISODE.

I MIGHT. I MEAN, I AM PROCRASTINATING BEYOND BELIEF AT THE MOMENT.

My Ted icon is this icon. I love that episode so much, mainly for Marshall's preoccupation with the pineapple.

[penny-lane-42.livejournal.com]

IT WOULD BE SO VERY, VERY CUTE. ALSO, SMG IS ADORABLE OFTEN.

Evidence:









*has a girlcrush*

DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT!

Pineapple!

[ava-leigh-fitz.livejournal.com]

SHE IS FREQUENTLY ADORABLE, I LOVE HER.

Hm, I'm wondering how to introduce her? Grad student?

TED, WHAT ABOUT THE PINEAPPLE?! I will never not love Marshall Ericksen. Fact.

[penny-lane-42.livejournal.com]

I think grad student would work. The only things we know about her are A) she was in the class where he made a fool of himself, and B) she was Rachel Billson's roommate, right? Also: yellow umbrella.

Marshall is made of everything that is awesome and great and wonderful. I LOVE HIM.

[ava-leigh-fitz.livejournal.com]

Right, I may give this a go! Apparently this is what essay avoidance does to me.

I WANT MY VERY OWN MARSHALL. I AM ON A MISSION TO FIND HIM.

[penny-lane-42.livejournal.com]

OH I'M SO EXCITED!

I HOPE YOU DO.

Y'KNOW, IF THEY GOT SMG TO GUEST AS THE MOTHER, IT WOULD BE A CAREER MOVE MADE OF WIN FOR BOTH SARAH AND THE SHOW. JOSS' CHILDREN BELONG TOGETHER LIKE THE JOHN HUGHES TRIBUTE AT THE OSCARS THIS YEAR. And I can have my sense of superiority whenever I point out a Jossverse alumnus to my friends.

oh, and the capslock was totally because of peer pressure. everyone else was doing it.

AND SHE'D BOND WITH ROBIN OVER GUNS

No! Buffy doesn't like guns. She likes rocket launchers, not guns. :P

But everything else I agree with.

[ava-leigh-fitz.livejournal.com]

Ah true. They could bond over weapons in general?
