I was tagged by the lovely tagging partner @lavellenchanted 🥰 Thank you, Sarah!
The rules were to answer each question with a gif (with no repeats - which I interpret as no repeat of the ship, not the fandom). I’m tagging: @founderofshield, @geraltsays, @formerlyir, @quiquimora, @sersi, @sevensneakyfoxes, @doctorhelena
(I made the gifs, because I’m in bed anyway, but it’s absolutely not expected!)
More about the pairings and my feels under the cut
1. First Ship
↳ Sorsha/Madmartigan (Willow)
That’s the first on-screen couple which I was interested about in terms of them ending up together. I was still a kid then, but I remember hoping they become a couple at the end of the movie.
2. First OTP
↳ Liz/Michael (Roswell)
And first rare pair at that, ha! The original Roswell was my first fandom I ever wrote any fics for and these two were my thing. I don’t even remember how it came to be, tbh. I just never liked Max and somehow any other canon boyfriend Liz had was never satisfying. Also I think I had a phase for brooding, lonely type that Michael represented. Teenage years, what can I say.
3. Current Fave Ship
↳ Geralt/Yen (The Witcher)
Loved them in books and thankfully the show didn’t disappoint. Sure, I think some things could’ve been improved, but overall I’m not complaining much. And I can’t wait for what season two will bring.
4. Your Ship Since the First Minute
↳ Cath/Steve (H50)
The scene in the gif isn’t their first onscreen scene, I just chose it because it’s one of my fave. But really, the moment Steve mentioned Cath in season one and we got a short glimpse of her, I was instantly “I need more of her. And of the two of them.” And my love grew stronger the more fandom hated on her (and boy, they were absolutely disgusting and awful).
5. Ship You Wish Had Been Endgame
↳ Clarke/Bellamy (The 100)
I admit I didn’t even watch the final season, but I’ve checked what happens and I was not impressed. They’ve built them up and allowed them growth only to fuck it up in the end. Disappointing. For me they had amazing chemistry and deserved to be the endgame.
6. Ship You Wish Was Canon
↳ Finn/Poe (Star Wars)
Listen, when I saw the movie for the first time I fell head over heels for Finn and Poe. I had high hopes for them in the next movies. Though a part of me knew Disney won’t have the balls to show a lot, I did hope to have them on the first lines and developing further. Instead, not only their relationship, but also characters individually were done so wrong.
7. Ship that Most of the Fandom Hates, but You Love
↳ Bucky/Peggy (MCU)
Listen, you can try to pry Bucky and Peggy from my cold, dead hands, but even then I won’t give up. They are my most precious rare pair and I will die on that hill. First of all, they’re too amazing not to ship them. Secondly, I wholeheartedly believe they’d have an amazing relationship if they got more screen time together. As a ship maybe they’re not exactly hated by fandom, but they’re not popular at all. The saddest part is that Bucky fans majorly hate on Peggy and vice versa, all because of Steve who canonically loves them both. I’m just like Steve - I love them both.
8. You Don’t Even Watch the Show, but You Ship It
↳ David/Patrick (Schitt’s Creek)
I haven’t seen a single episode of the show (yes, yes, I know it’s great and all, I just never had the opportunity to see it), but I saw many gifs on my dash. Including those of David and Patrick, and I find them cute.
9. Ship That You Wish Had a Different Storyline
↳ Jax/Tara (Sons of Anarchy)
Yeah, I wish they had a storyline that didn’t include Tara’s death! Also wish all that post-prison stuff in a way perished. Honestly, I wish they had a different storyline post season 3/4, instead of becoming darker, colder, more awful. The edgy, brutal atmosphere of the show became too much and was overdone at that point, in my opinion.
10. Fave Ship That’s Endgame
↳ Peggy/Steve (MCU)
How could I not pick them?! :) They’re the ship of ships. My greatest treasure. Love of my life. Some people move on from ship to ship, but for me they’re endgame and always will be. And they got their well deserved happy ending.
