Top 5 Ships I’d Go Down With
Tagged by @sailorslayer3641 (thank you very much, hon!)
I’m not sure if I’m supposed to spread them all across different fandoms or what, but here we go! And I’m not listing them in any particular order, just how quickly they pop into my head.
1. Olicity (Arrow)–This pairing was the first one that got me to ship a couple just through gifs. I’d never seen them in an actual ep, just little moving pictures on tumblr and yet the chemistry was THERE. Then I watched the show. And died and went to feels heaven.
2. Selina Kyle/Bruce Wayne (Gotham/DCU)–I’ve been in love with the dynamic between these characters since I was a kid. From the 90s Batman cartoon to Batman Returns to the comics to today where we have Mini-Bats and Mini-Cats running around being cute and angsty as hell. There will never not be a version of these two that doesn’t immediately have my interest.
3. Alex Parrish/Ryan Booth (Quantico)–DEAR. SWEET. BABY. JESUS. Not gonna lie, but this show had one of the BEST pilots I’ve seen in years. And got me to ship these two gorgeous idjits in no time flat. I love them and their inability to get their shit straight for more than five minutes to death.
4. Nyssara (Arrow)–Another couple I started shipping just through gifs. The moment I saw the first Nyssara kiss I was like “YEP. I’M SHIPPING THESE TWO TO THE BITTER END.” Then I actually watched the show and now I’m an ugly sobbing mess anytime Nyssa and Sara are brought up.
5. Vanessa Ives/Ethan Chandler (Penny Dreadful)–So much to love about this bloody period supernatural horror drama, but the hook for me was these two. The slow burn connection that springs up between them and carries them into a relationship of mutual understanding and protection in a world with entirely too much violence (and did I mention the blood? Because there is SO much blood) is just…it tickles my Gothic romance pickle.
I have a ton more ships, but I’m not even going to do honorable mentions because I’d be here all day and a mess by the end of it.
