I need a distraction from today...
Sep. 7th, 2010 02:21 pmGive me a character from any fandom I know at least fairly well, and I will tell you:
A) My OTP
B) The runner up
C) The anti-ship
D) My unpopular fannish opinion on said character
E) One person he/she never fell in love with, and why
You all know my fandoms. ;) I really need something to distract myself today. I'm not feeling my best with a mixture of allergies and a headache so, yeah. That or you can spam me with...things. I don't care. I just need this day to kinda go away. Blaah.

Yeah, same here. I find them very fascinating. I've been debating going to find fic, but... Arthur/Eames is just so OTP it's not even funny.
I am with you on Snape/Harry and Snape/Lily. I adore Snape and Lily, and the little bits and hints we get of them over the course of the series are just fantastic. One of the most genius things about Rowling is the way she turns what the audience already knows on its head- the whole "Worst Memory" bit from OotP takes on a whole different meaning when you know what Snape lost that day, why it was his worst memory.

Date: 2010-09-08 10:16 am (UTC)I really think there should be a genfic for Fischer/Eames, like what was Eames thinking when he was hearing Fischer tell his story? And with that end, after everything. That would be nice to see in fandom (if there haven't been one already, I haven't been searching hard enough).

It really does, and that's why I consider Snape/Lily the most tragic pairings ever. I loved how JKR wrote and spaced it out like that, it's just amazing.

I'm sort of writing something like that, but it's kind of weird and will probably never get finished (like so much else I write, heh). I wonder what is out there; I haven't done much looking either.
And I agree, Snape/Lily is definitely one of the most tragic pairings ever. There are so many twists and hidden depths to that storyline. Again, I agree; JKR is so amazing.
(I swear, I always forget how much I really adore Snape/Lily until it comes up. I am fairly certain it is my ultimate OTP of the entire series.)
