There will be fic postings shortly. Yes, that is plural :3c

I went to the library today. Yay for new reading things!

In the meantime, a meme I remorselessly stole from [livejournal.com profile] abarero


Name a fandom and I will give you my top three pairings and a little reason why.

I knew either this or Conan would be called first *laugh*

♥ Luke/Flora - If memory serves, I was one of the first, if not the first to write for this pairing. It was one of those rare moments where I just looked at them and thought they looked cute together. That was seriously my only justification. Plus, Flora had so little screentime that we didn't get much characterization on her. So it's fun to make one up!

♥ Layton/Legal - This one grew on me, mostly while I was writing LfH. I try to be open-minded about ships, so when I saw the prompt, I thought it was a good opportunity to give it a try. The rest, pardon the pun, is history. I will also note that I don't ship little!Luke with Layton. No thank you, not my kink.

♥ Layton/puzzles - I requested this on the meme. TELL ME I AM WRONG.

What can I say, I'm predictable! XD

♥ Luke/Flora is cute. And I do think you were the first! Though I was in the second wave of fandom I think and not the first.

♥ Layton/Legal can be great when done properly... and I think you do. o/

♥ Layton/puzzles: the only thing more canon than Layton/top hat!

We have a few joint fandoms, though, be it past or present *high-fives fellow CLAMP fan*

♥ It annoys me when she gets so much flack for being useless when she was in the first game for all of ten seconds and didn't have time to do anything. They're cute! And...for a couple of weeks, I was the only one posting fanfic XD It was sort of lonely.

♥ kaljdflkj *blushes furiously* Th-thank you~

♥ Layton/Laytonmobile is pretty hot, too...

It occurred to me after I posted this that I forgot my other seriously OTP for this game: LAYTON/CLAIRE OMFG ♥♥♥

CCS is an older fandom for me. I haven't played with it in ages, but I usually enjoy going back to revisit older fandoms.

♥ Sakura/Syaoran - I tend towards canon ships, and this is no exception. Syaoran's shy, stammering attempts to confess to Sakura amused me to no end, and it always made me giggle when he would get interrupted. It's another case of "This is just cute!"

♥ Eriol/Tomoyo - My very first non-canon ship. They're both pretty, both rich, both scarily domestic, and both might be slightly evil. They wound up being my favorite CCS pairing, and incidently, it was because of this pairing that I wound up joining LJ :D

♥ Touya/Yukito - This is one I've grown to appreciate more as I've grown in fandom. When I was into CCS, I was still a comparatively young fandom-goer, and the idea of shounen ai was still a little bit foreign to me. In hindsight, I think it's very sweet, and Touya's concern and willingness to give up his magic has me sold.

(Honorable mention to Fujitaka/Nadeshiko.)


Regarding Layton/Claire: if they eff up the localization and the voice acting on that scene at the end of the third game, where "Jikan Ryoko" is playing? Baby Jesus will cry, and I might start something on fire.

♥Syaoran/Sakura: is/was my favorite pairing forever... I actually have trouble with it now because of TRC. Go Tsubasa, ruining an old favorite for me. >> I'm going to start playing Syaoran in an RP though. XD

♥Eriol/Tomoyo: ME TOO I JOINED LJ BECAUSE OF ERIOL/TOMOYO. At least, I came back to it. A shipper found me writing on ff.net and invited me to a community here. I still write the pairing, but rarely.

♥Touya/Yukito: I had the same problem and then I was rereading again recently and I was just struck by how deeply they cared for each other. It's really lovely, all the things they say and do not say in the story.

(Fujitaka/Nadeshiko....... All I can say is that I wish Nadeshiko wasn't dead because they are the cutest thing ever.)



I haven't seen the Japanese ending, but if it sucks, I will cry too. ;;

♥ That is EXACTLY what happened to me. Just out of curiosity, who was the shipper? If it's the same person, I'm going to laugh.

♥ Okay, I have to ask: ARE YOU ME?


I teared up. And when I showed to to my BFF, I was actually physically holding her up and keeping her from falling over in a fangirlish squee.

Realize that this is the same girl who walked into the room when we were watching the last Princess Tutu DVD, saw the Fakir/Ahiru picture on the menu screen, and fell over. ILU, KAT.

Hey, predictable works! First up, Fakir/Myth--okay, I can't finish that with a straight face XD

♥ Fakir/Ahiru - The obvious one, of course. I like the idea of things happening gradually, from sort of being forced to join forces to a tentative partnership to actual friendship to the FRIGGIN' UNDERWATER BALLET SCENE OH LORDY.

♥ Mytho/Rue - Unrealistic as their relationship might have been, I liked Rue and I liked her character development, and I wanted her to have a happy ending. And the more I look back on it, for a guy who didn't feel, Mytho wound up being a fairly dynamic character.

♥ Uzura/tails - Especially donkey tails :D

...*snickers*

I think I'm about to shock you cause the one I'm gonna talk about here is Mytho/Rue XD

Really, considering it was a fairy tale and the way those usually go, they have a TON of backstory and grounds for something. And I saw it pointed out that several of his heart shards seemed to focus around her, like affection. And love went to her first. I think it seemed so odd cause we never got to really see him as he was until the last two episodes.

Uzura/tails is so the OTP =/

In terms of it being an outright fairy tale, then it's not really a suspension of disbelief. We know Rue loves Mytho, she's got a lot of backstory that details why she loves him like she does. And I hadn't actually thought about that bit with the heart-shards...

*m-may or may not have just been plunnied, thanks*

:O OH SNAP! That icon is beautiful...

♥ Umi/Ascot - This has always been one of the odd times where I've found myself in the fandom minority because most seem to ship Umi/Clef. I read the manga before I saw the anime, and the manga leans towards Asmi. Ascot went through a lot of changes because of Umi and what she said to him. And he's so shy...I just think it's cute!

♥ Fuu/Ferio - Nerdy girl gets the guy first. I love it. Doesn't hurt that I liked Ferio as a character, and the twist about who he really is was pretty sweet.

♥ Clef/Presea - I liked Presea. She kicked ass. Clef grew on me. And in the manga...eh, these two are pretty obvious :D

I was waiting for this one XD And ya know what? Everyone knows I do the top three pairings of Kaito/Aoko, Shinichi/Ran, and Heiji/Kazuha. They're a given. So I'm going to name three OTHER ships.

♥ Satou/Takagi - Yes, this is still sort of a mainstream ship, but it's not as mainstream. I adore Takagi. He's like a puppy, but he's also really quite a competent police officer. And Satou kicks ass and takes names. They're just a really fun, dynamic pair.

♥ Mitsuhiko/Ai - Mitsuhiko is sweet and a little bit mature for his age. Ai is rediscovering her childhood. They have similar interests in science. I could see something happening between them when they grow up.

♥ Yuusaku/Yukiko - This is one hundred percent the fault of [livejournal.com profile] magic_truth. Yukiko makes me laugh like no other, and it's so much fun to watch her put Yuusaku in his place, which she seems to do regularly.

I could also list about half a dozen honorable mentions XD

*nods* I'm completely with you on those pairings. I don't even think I have to touch on my obsession love of Sato/Takagi. I think Mitsuhiko/Ai is cute. And Yuusaku/Yukiko is so much fun to see. I can imagine Yuusaku grabbing Yukiko and tilting her back for a movie type kiss.

I could go on with Eri/Kogoro, Heizo/Shizuka (I friggin' LOVE Shizuka's character), and then some non-canon pairings...since the only character I outright dislike is Shiratori, this is a fun universe to play in.

That is a pretty awesome Y/Y image. AND NO, DAMMIT, PLUNNIES, I WILL NOT WRITE IT.

Actually, I kind of like Shiratori now that he's got a possible love interest that isn't Sato. I was afraid that was the reason I disliked him and I was right.

*cackles* Catching mental image, isn't it? ^_____________^

I'm afraid the whole "using police equipment to spy on Satou and Takagi's date at the amusement park" thing has left me rather soured on the man. But eh, I could warm up to a romance subplot, I suppose~

Memes are meant to be stolen! :D

♥ Phoenix/Miles - This game gave me slash goggles, and this pairing is to blame. I swore I would not be won over, but holy crap, then along came CASE FOUR OF GAME ONE. The rest is history.

♥ Klavier/Apollo - I adore Apollo, and the dynamic between him and Klavier cracks me up with his Germany smoothness. Which made that one fic where Klavier was secretly a virgin all the more hilarious and hot, unf unf.

♥ Phoenix/Iris - Okay, I admit to it. I sort of have a soft spot for this pairing in a sort of one-sided sense from Iris' side, if that makes sense... *pokes fingers together* DON'T JUDGE ME.

♥ I do like Klavier and Apollo, but they can't beat out Phoenix and Miles. It's just not the same. Plus I kind of like Apollo and Vera XD

♥ I'll be honest and say at first, I didn't really care for this pairing. She came completely out of left field and I was kind of like, meh, didn't care, and I liked Maya better. But she grew on me fast, especially when I started lurking in the fandom. :)

♥ Oh, nothing can beat the original recipe. But I adore Apollo, and Klavier grew on me A LOT, especially during the last case when he was all "I PWN JOO" and Kristoph was all "NUU!" and it was great :D

♥ Tamaki/Haruhi - pretty sure I'm in the fandom minority here, but if I had to pick a ship for Ouran, this would be it. It's one of those series where I just don't ship all that much, ya know?

♥ Tamaki-Kyouya - Notice the dash here. I don't ship these two, I friendship them. They're a textbook case of opposites attracting and bettering each other. Tamaki drew Kyouya out of his shell and got him to act like an actual person now and then, whereas Kyouya is a good foil to Tamaki's antics and balances him out as the voice of reason.
