At work & OTP-Question




[Unknown site tag]
Here again.

My work browser doesn't support Cookies so I can't log into my GMail account where I sent my fics to I wanted to look over or add to today.

TSUS 24 and my ficlet are back from my beta [livejournal.com profile] joolzmp7, with a bit luck ready to post tonight. Dunno. Haven't slept much the last night, just about two hours in front of my puter so I don't know how I feel in about ten hours when I am back home.

Comments would be great.


Hm.. tell me:
1. Which pairing (BtVS/AtS) do you prefer, why and how did you get to that pairing?

2. Which pairing (BtVS/AtS) makes you puke and why?

1. Which pairing do I prefer? Spike/Xander of course, babe. Why? Coz I first obsessed over Spangel (and I've still got a little corner of my heart for them) but that relationship is just so difficult and likely to be majorly angst-y. Sometimes I'm in the mood for that but I LOVE Spike, and I just want him to be happy, finally.
I think he has more chance of being happy with Xander - they are more equal in my mind. Spike may be stronger and older but Xander (if written properly), while he is a spaz sometimes, is prepared to fight if he believes in something. I could go on at length about these two - I think about them far too much, and I feel sorry for my friend who has actually had the e-mails with detailed character studies, etc.
Obsessed? Moi? Maybe a bit.
Oh, and the second bit of why? Coz they're hot, babe, sizzling hot.

2. Which pairing makes me puke? Oh, god, such a wide choice... In the actual series, I have to say Spuffy. Should not have happened. Something Blue was fun to watch, coz that's as far as it should have gone. In fanfic, gotta be Angel/Connor. Why? Two reasons, first one just eugh! Incest fics don't squick me, but this pairing seems so unrealistic. Yep, Angel can be depraved and so on, but I don't think that he would ever willing do that. He'd have to have spiralled so far into darkness that I couldn't read the fic.
Second reason, I couldn't stand Connor. At all. He's the only reason why I didn't watch the last quarter of AtS season 4. Only the promise of Spike lured me back. Then they cancelled it. Bastards. I will grudgingly admit to thinking Connor was okay in season 5, would have been interesting to see how things would have developed.

Remember, these are just my opinions and I know that some people won't like them. I just feel so strongly about them. Please don't slap me for them...
