couples meme
May. 28th, 2009 09:40 pmWhy not? Everyone else is doing it (baaa).
Name your 10 absolutely favorite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms.
In no particular order:
- Merlin/Arthur (Merlin)
- Buffy/Spike (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
- Captain Jack Harkness/the Doctor (Doctor Who verse)
- Mal Reynolds/River Tam (Firefly verse)
- Lord Peter Wimsey/Harriet Vane (Wimsey novels, Dorothy L Sayers)
- John Sheppard/Rodney McKay (Stargate: Atlantis)
- Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski (due South)
- Duncan MacLeod/Methos (Highlander)
- Cordelia Naismith/Aral Vorkosigan (Vorkosigan series, Lois McMaster Bujold)
- Miles Vorkosigan/Ekaterin Vorsoisson (ditto)
And some new arrivals who may have staying power to become favourites (it's not cheating, it's redefining the parameters):
- Matthew Farrell/John McClane (Die Hard 4)
- Kirk/Spock (Star Trek 2009, and I mean the 2009 version only. I am not old school.)
Hmm. I'll be interested to see if anyone can come up with a common theme here - I can't see one.
