I Will Go Down With This Ship

[strina]

So I am reading some favorite-cliche stories (X goes back in time to save the ones they love!) and, confession: I ship Wesley/Illyria desperately. It was honestly the only storyline I gave a damn about in those final episodes, and the biggest reason I regretted the cancellation, because rumor had it they were actually going to go there. I cannot watch the "would you like me to lie to you now" scene without weeping, I ship it so hard. Her gaspy "my love, oh! my love" is so clearly an epiphany and it KILLS ME DEAD. Unf.

Joss Whedon is kind of an amazing bastard at getting me to fall in love with his characters' relationships.

There is no shame for shipping Ben/Ronnie. I wish there had been more fic for them! In my head there was a total AU with the MMAS cast.

I kind of recast a lot of Bravo reality tv shows. I was so ready for a high school au of the project runway cast that had Kenley and Blaine.

I may have read Marcel, Sam, and Ilan in an angsty triangle at one point.

Ben/Ronnie is the only RPF where I just have to give in and admit I am a total tinhat about it. After the episode with all the on-the-bed cuddling and touching, I desperately want some Ben/Ronnie/Erin (or however she spelled her name). They totally changed the format for Season 2 because of the way Ben kept ending up in the bottom, but stayed because people just wanted to watch him and Ronnie be almost-boyfriends FOREVER.

Bravo has the shippiest reality ever, god. And also the most hilarious. (Ahaha, I don't know if you know this, but apparently Marvel Comics is dipping into RPF now? TIM GUNN SAVES THE DAY BY BORROWING ONE OF IRON MAN'S OLD SUITS OF ARMOR - after supervillains attack the fashion museum while he's giving a tour, natch. The idea of a comics-verse Project Runway just makes life better in so many ways.)

SAM. I would read Sam/Ilan all day. Or all kinds of current-season fic; they are ridiculous. Have you seen it? Hot brother-rivals! Jen (who is uptight and confident and awesome) has a total kitchen-crush on the black-sheep brother! Mike I. is kind of a douche, but he totally crushes on both brothers! IDK, I love them lots.
