I probably missed something or used a weird ship, but this is all off the top of my head and stuff. :P

• Lauren and Vaughn - Alias

Favourite Moment - 3x03, "Reunion" - She did his tie before a mission, and they talked about back when things used to be good - before Sydney returned and made everything complicated. They laughed together (about him dumping champagne on an ambassador, which is impossible to imagine :P) and then suddenly got serious, and he touched her face and didn't even need to say anything, because he was letting her know that they were going to make things work. It was a really deep, complex relationship for Alias, and I love that scene more than I should.

• Sasame and Saihi - Pretear

Favourite Moment - 10 - Sasame gave up basically everything to be with Saihi, even though everyone, even Saihi herself, knew that the girl he loved was lost inside the Princess of Disaster. It didn't even really seem like he'd try to turn her, he just loved her so much that he couldn't bear to be without her.

• Lara Notsil (or Gara Petothel, or Kirney Slane) and Myn Donos - Star Wars - Wraith Squadron

Favourite Moment - Iron Fist - Poor Lara was freaking out because she wasn't sure who she was anymore, and she was becoming way more attached to the Wraiths than she should have been, and she ended up running blindly down a corridor and crying on Myn's boots. It kind of showed Myn that some people had worse problems than he did. (It's been a while since I've read this book, so forgive any inaccuracies)

• Sam and Martin - Without a Trace

Favourite Moment - 3x02, "Thou Shalt Not" - Well, it's between this and the part of that horrible Christmas episode where she tells him that he makes her happy. These two were adorable. But in Thou Shalt Not, they were undercover in an abortion clinic,and while Martin knew Sam was an agent and could take care of herself, not all of the fretting he was doing was part of his character as the boyfriend. He was so obviously worried about her that the receptionist felt the need to reassure him.

•  Nadia and Weiss - Alias

Favourite Moment - 3x10, "The Index" - I whined to puggywuggy about picking a moment for this ship, as they never really had any big sweeping "moments" and usually left the party to do cute stuff offscreen, but I ended up picking her birthday, because he went to a party at her scary-ass dad's house and made her the chocolatiest cake ever, and kissed her on the forehead. And he was, like, the only person there she wasn't mad at.

Dude, you suck at shipping.

You can't even ship Sasame/Takako, which WORKS OUT. It had to be Sasame/SAIHI. :p

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

But Sasame/Takako is sort of obsessive and creepy and isn't SUPPOSED to be. Obsessive and creepy is allowed when you're both evil. :P

[yubsie]

You know what the worst part is?

That actually makes SENSE to me. :p

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

I'm not an insane shipper. I'm just attracted to doom. :P

[yubsie]

You know what I'm thinking here. :p

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

Well, not an insane shipper. :P

- Laughn: Too adorable for words. Too bad she turned evil. Oh, WAIT, not too bad! It made Lark possible. Otherwise, it was sad that Laughn didn't work out. They were so schmoopy in the good way. :P

- Sam/Martin: They look SO CUTE. ...but isn't she dating some other guy, now? :(

- Neiss: Awwww, that is THE cutest cap ever! *Squees* And LMAO, I love your reasoning for picking "The Index," by the way. :P But yeah, those two really are too adorable. It was kinda like how we laughed at Nadia in the beginning--a sister? THAT'S GOING TO SUCK! And then we ending up adoring her. And then the Neiss spoilers came and it was like, OH, SHIT, and then it ending up being wonderful. :)

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

Laughn was just a more grown-up ship than Syd/Vaughn has ever been, and they both tried so hard until she turned evil and he suddenly stopped caring. And it WAS sad that she turned evil, because she was the best character ever before that. :P

They WERE so cute! But then he dumped her because she had issues. Even though she was trying to fix them.

I went totally crazy capping that scene, because alias-media wants to pretend it doesn't exist. :P And we made fun of Neiss SO BAD (I mean, I called it a "stupid badfic ship" on my LJ somewhere, I think) and now they're totally my Alias OTP. Though that sort of ended, too. :P

Oh Tessie, you cutie! You did the meme like a normal person! And not like someone posessed!

And dude, LaVa, cutest screencap of all time.

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

I remember when you totally didn't believe that he was being nice, there. :P

[littledivinity.livejournal.com]

Well, I only knew him post-Crossings when he was an ass and a half! It seemed bizarre that there would be air-smoochies!

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

And you thought they were way far OOC in your badfic. :P

[littledivinity.livejournal.com]

God, I guessed so many things in that fic...the SWeiss still scares me to death.

And hey, Sarkney did end up kissing in canon. :P So...yeah.

it's just weird!

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

I thought you knew all that stuff! :P

[littledivinity.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know! A lot of people seemed to assume that I knew that stuff. But no. I'm freakishly psychic. :P

I see the past, you predict the future.

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

LMAO, and I do plots and you do characters ... we ARE two halves of the same writer. :P

[littledivinity.livejournal.com]

If other people would just hand over their plots I would write much better and longer fanfic. :P

I would.

I just don't have the patience to cook up a plot, nor does my brain seem to work in such ways.

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

But you can write Marshall! And Jack. It's a gift.

[dollsome.livejournal.com]

Randomly dropped over here and saw that you, too, had completed the OTP Meme of Doom (hee) and I just have to say that your explanation of the Laughn moment? So. Darn. Beautiful. I really, really love that ship and still wish it hadn't gotten so utterly screwed over. *sighs* I mean, I know it had to get screwed over somehow, but they really just destroyed it in the worst way. Anyway, yes, now I'm overcome with the need to go watch Reunion and get all emotionally unbalanced at that part. ;-)

[non-horation.livejournal.com]

I think I loved Lauren as much as I did because my first full episode of Alias was The Second Double (which I watched on CTV because my sister had been watching The Telling and spazzed because "OH MY GOD, SYD IS IN HELL!" and CTV re-showed the whole finale thinger an hour later) and then The Telling, so my introduction to Vaughn sort of had him married. And then Lauren was totally sweet and not the clich� I'd been expecting, and I ended up liking her more than I liked Syd, which was frightening. :P

And dude, don't even talk about watching Reunion. I was a SWeiss shipper, too, and that episode kills my soul.

And hi. :P (sorry if you get this twice, LJ was being insane)
