lirazel: An outdoor scene from the film Picnic at Hanging Rock ([ma] what i call)

in which i am extremely predictable

So today I was doing some employment verifications, and someone’s job title was: SHIPPER. And I thought, that should be MY job title. I would be the best at it! They could pay me! This should happen!

But since it won't, have some shippy quotes, okay?

(1) Think of up to 2025 ships you support.
(2) List them using descriptions of the characters involved rather than their names.
(3) Have your f-list guess as many of the ships as they can.





1. Haiku seems fitting:
Led Zeppelin versus ABBA,
Unnatural love.
2. Call them Mr. and Mrs. Dillon, TX
3. This romance is mostly written in the margins of borrowed books
4. STUPID BEE!!!!!!!111!!
5. Waffles are totally better than soup, okay?
6. The waiting is the hardest part. Because the waiting lasts a really, really long time, especially with all the deaths. But it’s totally worth it.
7. He’s pretty much obsessed with her hair, and who can blame him?
8. Princesses don’t marry kitchen boys, or so they tell me
9. I’m pretty sure most of their conversations involve at least one mention of baked goods
10. Having teddy bears pantomime their story was a really good call—they’re that adorable
11. She wants her bear won through some sort of demonstration of ring-tossing ability
12. The ultimate amnesia!fic. True love can’t be erased. This should make me want to hurl; instead, I ship.
13. Hell in high heels; the devil himself
14. Not even the rain has such small hands
15. There were tears on their wedding night, and my bet is that they were his
16. She’s a warped, repressed power-mad bitch, but he’d kill a dragon for and then drink her bathwater
17. They were better than good
18. Lesson learned: paying attention to your prospective-love’s social justice causes will pay off eventually, even if you think they’re silly and it takes seven years
19. They’re not magnets, but the same rule applies, no matter what he says
20. There’s blood on both of their hands; hers mostly comes from cleaning up after him, at least at the beginning
21. Their romance is WAY better than her parents’ probably because theirs has a sense of humor and is quotable enough to enter pop culture
22. His type is lanky brunettes with wicked jaws; good thing she fits the description
23. She smells like Paris and he lets her fly
24. Caterpillars and ducks
25. She definitely didn’t like him the first time she met him, but she couldn’t put a finger on why. My guess is that it was the mustache and that things got better once he got rid of it.

You are correct on all except for 9. And I'm extremely impressed about you getting one for a show you don't even watch!

STUPID BEE!!!!!!!111!!

Hahahahaha! So, you're through at least S5 and the movie, huh? Also, have you seen this outtake from the first movie? I think the cheering crew members make it extra special!

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I am now about 10 episodes into S6! I may have screamed at the TV when the bee thing happened. I will definitely have to check out that outtake when I get home....

I have some guesses about the others, but i'm betting 25 is Zoe and Wash from Firefly.

[identity profile] angearia.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, I bet it is!

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
And you would be correct!

Also I couldn't put my finger on 18, but now I want to know the source material, because it sounds RIGHT up my alley.

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes to all but 11!

Hahaha! Well, since it's been guessed already, 18 is Ron/Hermione.

The only one I know that hasn't been guessed:

10. Goong! (Chae Kyung/Shin)

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
YES! I knew if anyone got it, it would be you!

[identity profile] eilowyn.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Is 9 Ainsley and Sam? (I know it's gotta be one of them . . . )
Edit: and is 15 Cesare and Lucrezia?

Yes to number 9! But no to 15, though it totally could be, now that I think about it.

6. PONDS?

6 might be Amy/Rory? Otherwise all the ones I knew have been guessed. :)

It is indeed!

[identity profile] laeria.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Cool new layout!

22. may be Angel/Cordelia.

... that's all I got.

Thanks! I needed a change!

Nope!

Not cheating didn't bode very well for me... I only knew five!

2. Tammi/Eric, Friday Night Lights
3. Rory/Jess, Gilmore Girls
5. Ben/Leslie, Parks & Recreation (I don't even watch this show and I know/agree with this reference!)
11. Veronica/Logan, Veronica Mars
12. Eric/Sookie, True Blood

21 - Han/Leia!!!!

This meme is awesome.

Yes! And isn't it just so fun?

16. Lynda and Spike! (wow, I don't remember the bathwater part!)

17. Grace/Rich, RIGHT?

20. Long shot, but Kyp/Jaina?

I think I'll steal this meme!

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
You are right about 16! Yay! You may not have come to the bathwater line yet? I don't really remember at what point he says it, just that he does.

Nope to 17, but close!

No to 20, but that made me hella nostalgic!

[personal profile] snickfic 2011-11-14 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
15. Gen/Eddis (except, didn't the book specify that the tears were his? It's been a while since I read...)

If I'm right, I'll be terribly pleased about getting one right so late in the game. *g*

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
SO CLOSE. In fact, so close that I assume you just accidentally wrote the wrong person....

And I don't remember--were they his? I'll have to reread...

20 ... Lumen/Dexter? Except I'm not sure if she really cleaned up after him. Hmm.

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope! I actually haven't had a chance to watch Dexter yet.

I love the way you stan the way Spike stans Buffy's hair <333 :DD

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-11-14 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a sickness, I tell you. Anything remotely involving Spike's feelings about Buffy's hair sends me into a flaily fit of love and fuzzies. It's ridiculous.
