Meme time

I'm having one of those nights where I can't concentrate on anything and nothing holds my interest and basically I'm just twiddling my thumbs waiting till it's late enough so that I can reasonably go to sleep (side effect of depression? I'm going with yes, since this literally never happened to me before I hit this place).

Since there has been much discussion of A) the definition of OTP and B) Cordy/Angel on my flist of late, both of which I've enjoyed tremendously, let's do this one, okay?

Snagged from anythingbutgrey, she of the awesome Buffyverse thoughts.

FIVE FACTS FROM MY PERSONAL CANON MEME. ask me about a pairing, i'll give you some factoids.

Let's try to stick to pairings I actually like, okay? Feel free to ask me how I feel about a given one.

And hopefully I'll, like, actually get around to answering them.

Also, I have a new layout. I think it's pretty while also being unobtrusive. I wanted something less busy and a bit easier to read. penny_lane_42penny_lane_42penny_lane_42

No, I get what you're saying! I definitely don't think we're to far apart here--I've always talked about it this way: I think my parents are soulmates in that right now there's no one else for them. But they didn't start out that way. They've spent the last twenty-five years becoming soulmates. Like you say about souls matching up. It involves a lot of hard work and it isn't at first sight (though I believe in profound attraction at first sight, that's not love--love is so much deeper and more faithful and committed and sacrificial than that). And I don't believe in destiny (I'm about as far from Calvinist as you can get and still be Christian. TEAM FREE WILL) myself but real, powerful love is definitely something I can get behind.

the powers that be made those kids fall in love because it served the mission. not real. THE SECOND I CAME TO THIS CONCLUSION IT BECAME MY CANON AND I WILL NEVER LET IT GO EVER.

I AGREE WITH THIS COMMENT.
