It's nearly midnight, I'm bored, and I haven't done a meme in so long ...

One True Pairing Ship
Draco/Ginny

Canon Ship
Harry/Cho, before JKR turned Cho into a blubbering twit; now I'm not sure I have a canon ship.

"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship:
Draco/Hermione. Draco/Hermione. Draco/Hermione. Draco/Hermione. Draco/Hermione.

"You are one sick bastard" Ship:
Incest ships (particularly parent/child), most student/teacher pairings.

Um, Draco/Ginny?

"Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it" Ship:

Isn't this the same as OTP? Don't make me say Ron/House-elves.

Hee. I totally don't understand the Sirius/Remus love either. That was always the part of triumvirate that I understood not at all. Why do people think their love is angsty? Why? My brain is just generally completely at odds with the SQ ships: R/Hr, H/G, D/P, and S/R, none of which make any sense to me in terms of why anyone ever wants to write fanfic about them because they bore me to tears.

And you're such an evil dabbler, no wonder I always thought that it was Jade that was the loyal D/G shipper of the two of you.

You're totally right re: the SQ ships (I don't think I was aware that S/R was one), that they're boring -- I also find them pointless/fruitless because JKR is going there, albeit taking time w/ it. For me, fanfic is a way to explore things I'm not given, whether in a book, or a TV show, or movie, or whatever. If the actual writer is going there, who am I to circumvent that, or try and predict it? It's going to be what it is, so what's the fun in that?

You know, it's weird, I consider myself a pretty strict D/G shipper, but I have had moments of weaknesses. But it's such a rare and inconstant dabbling that I really don't think it should be counted against me. :D

Amen sister. I agree with you ocmpletely, but you already knew that. :)

I'll pray to the gods of fire & ice to forgive you, and the others who trespass into temptation. Ohmmmmmmm.
