An OTP meme
Snagged from [info]narnialovers

List your top five OTPs and then answer the following questions.

1. Robin/Marian (Robin Hood)
2. Rory/Jess (Gilmore Girls)
3. Christy/Todd (The Christy Miller Series)
4. Jane/Bingley (Pride and Prejudice)
5. Ella/Char (Ella Enchanted)


1. When did you first fall in love with ship number 1? (Robin/Marian)
Pretty much as soon as I started watching the new TV series (BBC, 2006). It's funny, because I only started watching because of Richard Armitage, but the rest of the cast was fabulous — I was hooked, and a lot of that is thanks to Robin and Marian! They're so cute, with their angst and bantering, where secretly you know they can't live without each other.

2. When did you fall in love with ship number 5?
When I read the book. ;) They were such good friends, and so sweet. I love how the relationship seemed so much more realstic than the typical Prince Charming/Cinderella story. By the end of the book, I was on pins and needles, especially when Ella goes to the ball in disguise!

3. What is your favorite moment of ship number 3? (Christy/Todd)
Oh, I have to choose? Well, it's actually easier than I thought — the end of the last book in the series (#12, A Promise is Forever) when Christy and Todd are reunited. Christy is sent to a different outreach team, and she has to travel across Europe by herself to meet up with them. Unknown by her, Todd is the person who is in charge of the group, and he is waiting for her at the train station. It is just soooooo squee-worthy, when she hears him call her her Hawaiian name, "Kilikina..." So good!

4. What will the ship be if you take the boy from ship 2 and the girl from ship 1 and mesh them? If one or both of the ships are slash, then pick and choose.
Jess and Marian. That could either really work, or it could be a disaster. I actually think it would work out nicely... Maybe. Nice girl, stubborn, and bad boy, also rebellious... Who knows? Marian might make Jess want to be a better person, too.

5. Viceversa.
Robin Hood and Rory? LOL. It could work...

6. What's your favorite moment for ship 4? (Jane and Bingley)
Um, probably when Bingley proposes. Especially in the 2005 movie (minus the "I've been an ass" part). They're both just so cute and happy!

7. How long was there between the time you got into the fandom and the time you started shipping ship number 3? (Christy and Todd)
However long it took for Todd to be introduced. It was pretty instant, lol.

8. When did you start shipping ship number 4? (Jane/Bingley)
I think I really started 'shipping them — pretty much more than Lizzy and Darcy — when I saw the 2005 movie. Rosamund Pike and Simon Woods were priceless.

9. Take three random people from three of the ships and create an OT3?
I guess... Robin/Todd/Jane — lol. They're all waaaay too good!

10. Rank your OTPs in order.
I honestly can't!!! :( It will depend on what I'm really into at the moment. Plus, I haven't seen Gilmore Girls in awhile now that it's off the air...

1. Hermione/Ron ( Harry Potter )
2. Anne/Frederick ( Persuasion )
3. Esther/Allan ( Bleak House )
4. Cecilia/Robbie ( Atonement )
5. Meg/Sam ( American Dreams )

1. When did you first fall in love with ship number 1? (Hermione/Ron)
I'm a before-the-troll hardcore Hermione fan, so that would be in Philosopher's Stone, in the Hogwarts Express. I've been admiring Jo's work for 10 years in March and I've been supportive of Hermione/Ron from book one and Harry/Ginny from book two, and at the time, I wasn't in the majority. I've had passionate discussions with Hermione/Harry supporters and I'm relieved I was in the right all along.

2. When did you fall in love with ship number 5? (Meg/Sam)
Good question ! I absolutely love Meg/Luke ( because of Luke ! ) but I think Meg/Sam is how things would have been if the show hadn't been cancelled : I've supported them from the last scene of 1x13 The Pursuit of Happiness.

3. What is your favorite moment of ship number 3? (Esther/Allan)
I think the miniseries explore their relationship better. That would be a tie between the flowers and Allan telling Esther he's leaving to be a doctor on a ship. Anna Maxwell Martin is one of my favourite actresses, she plays beautifully. My heart just breaks each time.

4. What will the ship be if you take the boy from ship 2 and the girl from ship 1 and mesh them? If one or both of the ships are slash, then pick and choose.
Haha ! Hermione/Frederick ! My goodness, what a match ! I think the world would explode. Such different worlds...

5. Viceversa.
Anne/Ron, now seriously the world would explode. It really doesn't seem right, I don't think Ron would understand Anne one bit and viceversa. That's even worse.

6. What's your favorite moment for ship 4? (Cecilia/Robbie)
It seems obvious to say " the library " and a bit easy, but that's my answer. Although actually Robbie's memory of it while at war is perhaps.. No, the library, most definitely. Such gorgeous prose... And the movie turns this prose into the most sensual scene I've ever watched.

7. How long was there between the time you got into the fandom and the time you started shipping ship number 3? (Esther/Allan)
Same time ! I read the book after watching the miniseries and it just hit me how perfect they were for each other.

8. When did you start shipping ship number 4? (Cecilia/Robbie)
When I read the book, in February 2007. I don't read much contemporary fiction but was extremely lucky to try McEwan, I had no idea Atonement was such a jewel.

9. Take three random people from three of the ships and create an OT3?
Meg/Hermione/Robbie. Actually, that's excellent.

10. Rank your OTPs in order.
They are :)


It was long but fun, thanks !

The idea of Robin and Rory as a couple is just way too bizarre!

1. When did you first fall in love with ship number 1? (Mulder/Scully)
Season 5 you really begin to see more between them and how it grows over season 6,7 and the last episodes of 8 and 9 just lovely how well they work together. Plus the 2nd movie comes out this summer!!!

The moments where it is just Booth and Bones and they look right into eachother, plus the end of last year's Santa in the Slush just feeling the love as they share the tree, plus the kiss!!!


4. What will the ship be if you take the boy from ship 2 and the girl from ship 1 and mesh them? If one or both of the ships are slash, then pick and choose.
Noah/Scully but Mulder has something to say about that.

5. Viceversa.
Allie/Mulder no way!

6. What's your favorite moment for ship 4? Landon/Jamie
When in the book they sit down together and realize just how sick Jamie is and how Landon stands by her side the whole time and marries her.

7. How long was there between the time you got into the fandom and the time you started shipping ship number 3? Booth/Brennan (Bones)
Immediately
