because we all know that i live to ship

Comment with any ship (romantic or platonic or maybe even non-existent!) from a fandom that you know I have some knowledge about, and I will rant about aforementioned ship. This may be incoherent gushing or exclamations of disgust, depending on your ship of choice.

Caveat: If you say Buffy/Spike, I'm probably just going to link you to my manifesto.

Doctor/River?

AH! SO MANY FEEEEEEELINGS.

So I did not like River when she first showed up. At all. And it wasn't because of a shippy thing--I have never shipped the Doctor with anyone, so I wasn't an angry Rose fan or anything. She just drove me crazy. I was not happy when we learned she'd be showing up in Series 5.

But! Then! She did show up! And I started to really like her in the Angels episodes in S6. And then I fell head-over-heels for her in the two-part finale. Stan, definitely. I also started shipping her with the Doctor at that point, which was interesting because this was my first Doctor ship.

But my feelings EXPLODED for the two of them as a ship in the Series 6 premiere. ALL. THE. FLIRTING. NEVER STOP FLIRTING. I could seriously watch them flirt for all time. And she broke my heart with her little speech to Rory. OH MY HEART.

I want her to be in ALL THE EPISODES and for her and the Doctor to ALWAYS BE FLIRTING and for us to find out EVERYTHING ABOUT HER.

I pretty much feel the same way about them! Except that I did like River (kind of) in the Library twoparter, but then I watched the previous seasons, became a Doctor/Rose shipper, and was informed by fandom at large this meant I should hate River. Which complicated my feelings on her :P.

But YES this season!! I LOVE THEM NOW.
