Primarily, my gallery contains some photomanipulation wallpapers, a lot of poetry, and my novel-in-progress, "Desmonda of the Cedars." Take a look around!

Shippiness meme (Dood I finished it lol)

Mon Feb 23, 2009, 9:31 AM
JSYK, although I manage to maintain some modicum of dignity on DA, the truth is that I am a shameless shippy fangirl. SHAMELESS I SAY. And :iconlordofpastries: had this meme and it looked amusing so I did it. BEHOLD MY SHAMELESS SHIPPY FANGIRLNESS.

Six Ships I Love:

1.) the Doctor/Rose Tyler (Doctor Who)
2.) Daniel Faraday/Charlotte Staples (Lost)
3.) James "Sawyer" Ford/Juliet Burke (Lost)
4.) Sarah/Jareth (The movie Labyrinth)
5.) Charlie Pace/Claire Littleton (Lost)
6.) DG/Glitch (in a sort of non-active stasis mode)(The miniseries Tin Man)

Three Ships I Liked, but Not Anymore:

7.) James "Sawyer" Ford/Kate Austen (Lost)
8.) Jack Shepard/Juliet Burke (Lost)
9.) Jack Shepard/Ana Lucia Cortez (Lost)

Three Ships I Don’t Like (Let's just assume "all slash" and save everyone the trouble):

10.) The Doctor/Martha Jones (Doctor Who)
11.) The Doctor/Donna Noble (Doctor Who)
12.) Jack Harkness/Rose Tyler (Doctor Who)

Two Ships I’m Curious About, but Don’t ACTUALLY Ship:

13.) The Doctor/Romana (well, I sorta do, but, you know)(Doctor Who)
14.) Ben Linus/Juliet Burke (Lost)

1.) Why do you dislike #11 so much?

They said it very clearly in the first episode of series 4. NO MATING. Just friends. FRIENDS. Is that seriously so hard to understand?

2.) Who is someone you know that ships #13?

Um, if I remember correctly, Mimi-na does, but although I watch her I don't know her personally. :P

3.) What would be your ideal scenario for couple #3?

Well, ever since Sawyer acquired his amazing "taking care of people" skillz, and Juliet had to pat his back tenderly when he thought the woman he loved had just blown up, I think it would be reasonable and AMAZINGLY CUTE if they sought kumfurt in one another's arrrmss after some sort of traumatic flashy-island event. And not in a "sexytimes in the polar bear cage" way, in a "I am here and will take care of you and we will survive on the combined power of our snark" way. D:

4.) Which is your favorite episode for #1?

Either... Doomsday... or Dalek D:

Srsly they are just SO CUTE in Dalek. Doctor's all "NUUU MAH ROSE WHAR YU GO ROSE I WUBBED YU T_T"

5.) How long have you been following couple #6?

I had an inkling I'd like it even before I saw the miniseries. Although I don't really... FOLLOW them. D:

6.) What's the story with #8? What made you stop liking them/caring?

At the end of last season, when Shirtless!Sawyer sat down on the beach and shared a bottle of rum with sad Juliet, I was like "OKAY, IF KATE AND JULIET MAKE AN OCCASIONAL-BOYFRIEND SWAP I WILL BE ANGRY." Because I was a huge Skate shipper. But by now, I've made my mind. Kate had her chance with Sawyer and then goes and raises a baby with Jack. And Jack... I pretty much just shipped Juliet and Jack to get him out of the way and let Sawyer have Kate. But now I've decided Juliet is WAY too cool for Jack. She just operates on an entirely different plane of awesome.

7.) Which ship do you prefer - #2 or #4?

Sareth is squee-worthy IF DONE RIGHT, but it all tends to look the same after a while. Plus Charaday is current. CHARADAY FOREVER (edit: YEAH... WELL... I STILL BELIEVE HE CAN SAVE HER WITH THE POWER OF LURV)

8.) You have the power to make one ship non-existent. Choose from #10 or #12.

Oh geez, SO Martha/Doctor. Everybody just SHUT UP about Martha/Doctor!!! D8

9.) What interests you about #14?

Ben: Terrifying and awesome. Juliet: Witty and awesome. Ben: Harbors creepy possessive murderous crush on Juliet. AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY. Juliet: Horrified, yeah, but totally rolls with it; is never seen to cower even though Ben is the scariest thing EVER. No cowering. At all. And honestly when he's not killing people or twisting them to his evil-genius will Ben is sorta sweet. <3

I'm just kinda... WILLING to see if someone can convince me of it, because I know if anyone could write a shippy fic with them and stay in-character, it would be AMAZING.

10.) When did you stop liking #7?

Right about when the new season started. I got sort of fed up with all the Kate angst and could see her dragging Sawyer down into her Angst Swamp of Doom. And I said "BEGONE, WITCH! SAWYER IS TOO FULL OF SNARKY GOODNESS TO BE SACRIFICED TO YOUR ANGSTY WAYS." And I realized that Juliet is just the angst-proof snarky counterpoint to rescue him. Thus was born my Sawyet love.

11.) Did your waning interest in #9 kill your interest in the show?

Nah, I was just bummed that Ana Lucia had died and could no longer take Jack off of Kate's hands.

12.) What's a song that reminds you of #5?

LMHO, remember that song from Barney?!
"Peeanuuuuuut, peanut butter... and jelly! Peaaaannuuuuuut, peanut butter... and jelly!!"

13.) Which of these ships do you love the most?

Doctor Rose OTP. Well... I mean... unless he's before or after Rose or Rose-possibility... in which case he is allowed to snog Romana or River, respectively. No Martha snogging though.

14.) Which do you dislike the most?

Doctor/Martha (obviously). It's just... People who ship them are really grasping at straws, I think. There's no way HE ever would, and SHE'S just borderline pathetic about it. So.

15.) If you could have any of these two pairings double date, who would it be?

...So I just got this amazing image of BenxJuliet and JarethxSarah going on a double date. Ben and Jareth could compare their techniques for evil possessive wooing! And Juliet and Sarah could compare experiences of, uh, being evilly and possessively wooed.

Sarah: Stole my baby brother and made me run a deadly labyrinth.
Juliet: Got my boyfriend killed and then took me out to spend some quality time with the impaled, week-old decaying corpse.
Sarah: ...Yeah, okay, you win.
Jareth: *eyeing Ben* Dang, man. That's cold.

16.) Have #2 kissed yet? Elaborate if you'd like.

[sob] SHE NEVER EVEN SAID SHE LOVED HIM BACK. COULDN'T YOU HAVE GIVEN HIM THAT, CHARLOTTE? COULDN'T YOU HAVE JUST GIVEN HIM THAT?[/sob]

17.) Did #4 have a happy ending? If the show hasn't ended yet, do you think a happy ending is likely?

Nnnnnnnnno. I mean... the movie ended happily... but Jareth had to go and offer himself and his kingdom in return for her devotion instead of just asking her out for coffee. Or, you know, waiting until she was no longer a minor. Why do I ship them again...? Oh, right, because I apparently have this strange fixation on domination relationships. No, wait, that's not it, surely...

18.) What would make you start shipping #14?

Hmmmm. Probably the thing that always makes me start shipping that sort of dynamic; evil possessive bad guy shows the hidden crack in his armor is his luurrrrvveeeeee for her. =3 (Yeah I've got a problem) The only snag in that is that Ben's armor has no cracks. He's like a ninja of awesome.

19.) If only one could happen, which would you prefer - #2 or #6?

DG and Glitch would be cute together, but Daniel Faraday is cuter than DG/Glitch to the power of forty zillion and he DESERVES TO BE HAPPY. He also incites me to capslock a lot.

20.) You have the power to decide the fate of #10. What happens to them?

Martha gets a grip and stops chasing the Doctor. Which is what happened! Yeah I'm just that good.

Ansley, I need your advice. Do you think I should restart my webcomic? The art style I'd use can be seen on my featured art section. Just need some other thoughts besides my own.

*looks at her costume* hey what're you going to be this year?

Definitely not "restart." If you wanted to change the style of it, you could just up and do it! Lots of comics change their look mid-run, either slowly ([link] [link] [link]) or all at once ([link] [link])

If, however, you wanted visual continuity within the archive, you could just do what "A Girl and Her Fed" did and try an "art reboot." ([link] [link]) He wanted to switch his style suddenly, but wanted continuity, so he goes back and remakes one of the old strips every week (plus takes the opportunity to retouch any dialogue he didn't like).

On the other hand, if you're asking because you're really not sure if you like the style, it looks great. Only thing I'd make sure of is that you've got a hang of being just as expressive in this style!

Come closer, dear reader.
You must trust me.
I am telling you a story.

- The Tale of Despereaux
:iconshapequest:
It's scary-weird how you have those links ready.

Anyway, part of the problem with me is that I don't have any time to both "retouch" old pages and make new ones, between work and school. There's just no room to do both. Alas. I think I will take a hiatus.

Are you not going to tell me what your costume is??? Is it some big secret?
