Using only song names from one band/artist, one must answer the following questions and then tag 15 people to pass it on and try not to repeat any song titles.
It’s too obvious that I’d use 1D or Taylor Swift, so instead I’ll be using Paramore, my first love. Let’s see how this goes:
Are you a male or female: Monster
Describe yourself: For a Pessimist, I’m Pretty Optimistic
How do you feel: Looking Up
If you could go anywhere, where would you go: Where The Lines Overlap
Your favourite form of transportation: Fast In My Car
Your best friend is: The Only Exception
You and your best friends are: Anklebiters
Favourite time of day: Now
If your life was a TV show, what would the title be: Grow Up
What is life to you: Misery Business
Your relationship: Stop This Song (Lovesick Melody)
Your fear: Be Alone

How to do the thing: choose 5 of your OTPs (any series) without looking at the questions in the read more first, answer the questions with the corresponding ship, then tag 10 people.
1. Do you remember episode/scene/chapter that you first started shipping #5?
Not specifically (it’s been a while since I’ve watched OUAT) but I specifically remember when they revealed his lion tattoo and i was like WHAAAAAT YESS HE’S THE GUY WITH THE LION TATTOO.
2. Have you ever read fanfiction about #2?
Hahaha I don’t think there’s a lot of Team Island fics around, if any. Plus I’m not very good at reading fanfiction (I have a very short attention span).
3. Has a picture of #4 ever been your background/Tumblr icon?
Hmm surprisingly no. I just feel a lot of people have Clarke or Bellamy icons and I like to be just off the beaten path ;)
4. If #3 were to suddenly break up, what would your reaction be?
Well....it’s...not like...it already happened....No, I mean they aren’t publicly canon, but if they were secretly dating, I would upset if they broke up (especially considering the light of recent events). They are incredibly cute together and compliment each other soooo well. But in all honestly, if one of them is unhappy, then I’m perfectly fine with them breaking up for the sake of personal happiness.
5. Why is #1 so important?
ITS SO IMPORTANT YOU HAVE NO IDEA. You see, I started shipping them around episode 6 as a joke to my roommate like “hey these two seem like they like each other eh??” but THEN THAT PUNCHING BAG SCENE?? Like the writers are definitely VERY intentionally putting in homoerotic undertones right? “6 inches behind the target”??? “HARDER”??? Okay, logically and realistically, they aren’t endgame nor will they ever be any game (especially since Eddie might be Barry’s twin brother) BUT DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW IMPORTANT THIS SHIP IS TO ME? Eddie, my poor bullied ignored and brushed aside Eddie finds a real friendship (one he never thought he’d have EVER) in Barry, and Barry who thinks he’s in love with his long time friend Iris is just left confused when he meets Eddie. Beautiful, perfect Eddie. But Barry’s pretty sure he’s straight and is in love with Iris, right? Ha, wrooooong. Also, I’m going to leave bisexualeddiethawne’s link to this beautiful rant here because I 110% agree with it.
6. Is #4 a funny or a serious ship?
Very serious. Like heartbreakingly serious.
7. Out of all the ships, which ones have the most chemistry?
Shit this is difficult. Like, all of them have their own chemistry in their own way. I’d say it’s between Slade/Shado/Oliver, Zayn/Liam and Robin Hood/Regina. They all work so very well with their respective ships. Honestly I think Team Island might have the most chemistry. I mean, Slade and Oliver obviously wanted to bang each other before they met Shado, and then all three pretty much wanted to bang each other (I’m such trash).
8. Of all the ships, which ship has the strongest bond?
Bellamy and Clarke, definitely. While I think Team Island, Ziam and Outlaw Queen have the best chemistry, they’re kind of floating around in confusion at the moment. Bellamy and Clarke have been at each other’s side through thick and thin and their leadership skills both very well compliment each other. I mean, Clarke has let a lot of people die and has lost a lot of allies and friends because of her decisions (whether she wanted to make them or not) but Bellamy was the one who always stayed by her side.
9. How many times have you read/watched #2′s fandom?
Hahaha I don’t think Team Island even has a fandom? Why do all the cool questions get stuck with my ship with the least source material?
10. Which ship lasted the longest?
I don’t know if this means the ship itself (like the characters’ relationship) or how long I’ve shipped a pair...I guess for the first one, I’d say Robin Hood and Regina, as they’re the only canonical relationship. The second question I’d answer with Ziam because I’ve shipped them since I got into 1D last year (so about a year or so).
11. How many times, if ever, have #5 broken up?
Well, Regina and Robin Hood’s relationship is a rocky road. And like I said, I haven’t watched OUAT in a while so I can’t remember the intricate details, but I think I can recall a couple times where she said she wasn’t good enough for him (yknow being evil and all) and obviously when motherfucker Maid Marian came back from the dead, that fucked all shit up...and then towards the middle of season three when Robin hood and his family left Storybrooke. So I’d say they’ve “broken up” at least once haha.
12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive?
Technically Bellamy and Clarke were thrust into an apocalypse of some sort and have faced things worse (in my opinion) than zombies. But then there’s my Team Island. They all know how to survive on an island and fend for scarce resources, in addition to having the ability to kick some major zombie. So I’ll probably go with Team Island as my final answer.
13. Did #4 have to hide their relationship for any reason?
They’re not technically in a relationship (it’s mostly platonic at the moment) but I’m sure that if they were, they wouldn’t have any reason to hide being together (unless they just didn’t want all the attention their friends would give them like “awww Bellamy and Clarke are finally dating!” or Raven throwing a quip about when the wedding’s gonna be).
14. Is #5 still together?
Not sure, I haven’t seen the most recent episodes of OUAT, but I can only hope :)
15. Is #1 canon?
In my heart and soul.
16. If all 5 ships were put into a couple’s Hunger Games, which couple do you think would win?
We’d have to think about powers? Like Regina’s got her evil queen powers, Barry’s got speed and time travel, and Slade’s got motherfuckin’ mirakuru...out of those three I’d probably say that Regina would overpower Team Island and Thallen in a heartbeat (they’re too weakened by their respective ships) whereas Regina might be willing to make the hard call if Robin Hood got taken hostage--you know with her ability to rip her own feelings out.
17. Has anyone tried to sabotage #5′s relationship?
I wouldn’t say anyone intentionally--*looks at Emma Swan suspiciously*--but I just think fate has a funny way of playing with Regina’s “bad guys never win” mentality.
18. Which ship(s) would you defend to death and beyond?
Thallen, Ziam and Outlaw Queen. I love Bellarke and Team Island but the former is more of a intellectual ship and the latter is more of a “this is obviously an ot3, how can no one see it??” I don’t have a basis behind why I ship them, other than they work really really well together.
19. Have you ever spent hours a day going through #3′s tumblr page?
Hours for just a tumblr page? Oh honey no, I’ve spent whole days going through youtube videos, scouring through gifsets and putting my favorite songs through a bracket tournament. Ziam has consumed my life, whether I like it or not.
20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the 5 ships to break up forever, which ship would you sink?
(Disclaimer that this is a very heartbreaking question and I hate whoever wrote it). I say this with a heavy heart, I’d sink Team Island. I’m only into season two but I’m pretty sure this ship sank when Shado died. It’s also one of the more recent ships I’ve starting shipping so I’ll miss it the least?
