Meme: Fannish5 Fav Couples

[viciouswishes]

fannish5: What are your five favorite canonical romances?

1. Ellen/Saul (BSG): Duh. They loved each other, plus they were both funny and tragic.

2. Almásy/Katharine (The English Patient): This was probably the first couple (and first book I'd read) where she was definitely the dom in the relationship and something about it clicked. They also have many similarities to #1.

3. Ivanova/Talia (B5): Another tragic couple. And another first for me, in that this was the first lesbian relationship I'd seen on tv and was another click moment.

4. Picard/Crusher (TNG): Every time I watch those TNG episodes where they're UST-ing or kind of seeing each other, I'm just so happy. Even when it's kind of fucked up.

5. Ovechkin/Me: What?

Okay, real #5: Wesley/Lilah (AtS): "Oh, forget about that evil witch. Let's talk about me. I'm good and pure and science turns me on, and-and one day if I pray hard enough and eat all my vegetables, I just might just have hips." Also, the dirty, dirty sex.

I don't think I could come up with five canon couples I've liked with a gun to my head...so sad. But then again, I don't watch many TV shows.

Hurrah for the real #5. :-)

I do so enjoy them. :)

Yay Picard/Crusher. The episode title slips my mind, but the one where they're telepathically connected on KesPritt just rocks my socks. She totally should have taken advantage of him when he was having a naughty dream :)

That'd be Attached. ;)

Yes, she totally should've. Ever time they're on screen, a part of me hopes that the episode will change and they'll finally really hook up.

Yay for Picard/Crusher! *g* That's the first pairing I ever got fannish about. Or would have, rather, had I known what fandom was in junior high.

Hee hee. I was really a Geordi/Data or Geordi/Mary Sue shipper back in the TNG glee days, but I still do love Picard/Crusher as a canon couple very much.
