I saw ten 'ships a sailing

[wisdomeagle]

seen variously: [for those interested in meme tracking: started by svilleficrecs here. To my flist via lyssie who gave it to anr. Alternately, from svilleficrecs to meyerlemon (on my flist) to webbgirl (also on flist). To ME!]

Off the top of your head, right now, what ten 'ships would you likely drop what you're doing to read fic for. Or, alternately, what are the top ten ships that you'll give a fic a chance for, or that you've been dying to write, or that you've been dying to read.... These can be new loves, old flames, or something in between. Explain if you like, but you don't have to. Then tell us 3 things these ships say about you. Leave a comment about what you think these ships say about me, then repeat in your own LJ.

1. Daniel/Sam (Stargate: SG-1)
2. McWeir (Stargate: Atlantis)
3. McGonagall/Hermione (Harry Potter)
4. Joss/Alexis (AtS RPS)
5. Wesley/Sam! (Angel the Series and Stargate: SG-1)
6. Wesley/Fred (Angel, the series)
7. Jack/Daniel (Stargate: SG-1)
8. Willow/Fred (Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel the Series)
9. Willow/Xander (Buffy: the Vampire Slayer)
10. Willow/Giles (Buffy: the Vampire Slayer)

And from anr, another 10, because I can.
1. Angel/Wesley (Angel the series)
2. Frodo/Sam (Lord of the Rings)
3. Riddle/Hagrid (Harry Potter)
4. Dom/Billy (LotRiPS)
5. Giles/Ethan (Buffy: the Vampire Slayer)
6. Blackie/Sean (Greeleyverse)
7. Jim/Blair (The Sentinel)
8. Sam/Catherine (Stargate: SG-1)
9. Legolas/Gimli (Lord of the Rings)
10. [spoilers for Moebius 1]Dorkverse!Sam/Willow(Stargate SG-1 and Buffy: the Vampire Slayer[/spoilers]

What I think this says about me:
1. I'm tri-fictional
2. I like power kink/age differences
3. I care about canon. I just don't, you know, 'ship by it.
4. I like friendship kink

This tells me that sweet and awkward is a real turn on for you. :)

[wisdomeagle]

Well, uh... yeah, pretty much. :)

My "would likely drop what i'm doing to read" ships are at the moment primarily crazy ships from stuff i've been reading for school recently.

- Sarah Woodruff/Christina Rossetti (The French Lieutenant's Woman - John Fowles)
- Tess/Marian (Tess of the d'Urbervilles - Thomas Hardy)
- any combo of Jane Eyre/Helen Burns/Miss Temple (Jane Eyre - Charlotte Brontë)
- Jane Eyre/Mad!Bertha (Jane Eyre - Charlotte Brontë)

Other stuff i'm interested in at the moment:

- Stacey/Charlotte (BSC)
- Dawn/Wesley (BtVS and Angel)
- Dawn/Ethan (BtVS)
- McGonagall/Hermione (Harry Potter)
- Dawn/Kit (BtVS)
- Dawn/Cassie (BtVS)

This shows that i (1) am crazy (1a) slash everything (2) have a powerplay kink (3) am easily influenced [in terms of fic preference] by what i've recently read. Oh and apparently that (4) i'm all about the girlslash as of recent and (5) Dawn is my Little Black Dress of Fandom at the moment.
