Comment to this post with a pairing from one of the fandoms that we share. It can be a general pairing or something unconventional. Het or slash. It's doesn't matter. I will respond with at least 100 words discussing my opinions, feelings, and thoughts on that particular pairing.

Fandoms I Really Know:
CSIverse
Brothers and Sisters
Heroes
House MD
LOST
Supernatural
Numb3rs
Las Vegas

Fandoms I'm Kinda Know:
Firefly
NCIS
Grey's Anatomy
Stargate SG-1
Stargate Atlantis

For the last two, I kinda jumped on at the end of this season, and I've caught a lot of reruns of SG-1 on SciFi, but if you could stick to the regulars on those two...

Grissom/Catherine

I like Grissom and Catherine much better than I do Grissom and Sara. Catherine doesn't seem as desperate for attention and approval as Sara is. She's much more sure of herself, and would balance Grissom out more than Sara does. Plus they have known each other long enough that Catherine knows when to take his crap and when to call him on it. I don’t think that Grissom is ready for the weight of a relationship with Catherine, because of Lindsey, but I think that with a little time he could learn to handle that better than he could now.

Danny/Delinda

What I absolutely love about Danny and Delinda is the simplicity of their relationship. There aren’t a lot of complications between the two of them, it’s more outside forces that seem to get in their way. They were great friends to begin with, and them together just seems to be a natural progression of their relationship. They’ve always had this flirty edge to their relationship, and she can be completely straight with him, as he can be with her. She never has a problem calling it as she sees it, and that’s what he loves about her. They’re just really, really cute together, and I’m so happy they’re together on the show.

how about DeanWinchester/SamMarquez?

btw, are you interesting in looking over my SN/LV xover when i get a bit more of it done?

Absolutely!

Dean and Sam would be absolutely hot together. Aside from the fact they are both ridiculously hot people, the snark would be fantastic. I don’t think they could maintain an actual relationship, because of who they both are, but I think they would have a very hot fling. The relationship would also be amusing for everyone else to watch, because of all the sniping and avoiding Sam would be doing (because she probably would really like him and not want anyone else to see it) but I think they’d be sweet in the end. They could work in some kind of way.

oooh the snark would be awesome. although Sam and Woody was kinda cute. :D

but this?
avoiding Sam would be doing (because she probably would really like him and not want anyone else to see it)
totally!!

*loves*

i'll send my fic to your email (in your profile) tonight or tomorrow?

Sounds good! I'm looking forward to reading it.

hehe... me too. ;)

Gibbs/Jenny

I like the history that Gibbs and Jenny have. They know each other well, and know their limits and what buttons to push and not to push. I’m thinking that them getting together before was hot and very—passionate—the first time around but if it were to happen again, it could end in a homicide. Plus, I have a feeling they piss each other off more than they feel attracted to each other, while probably in their earlier relationship it was the other way around. I still think they have an interesting relationship, though. It might be interesting if they dug into the relationship more.

Nick/Sara

Nick and Sara is probably one of my favorite CSI ships, but also one of the first I retired, after Warrick and Catherine. I’m not a big fan of the Grissom/Sara relationship—either of them, really. Sara has always seemed like a really stiff character to me, but I really liked the way she relaxed around Nick. He teased her and joked around with her, and she didn’t get on the defensive, she teased him back. They kind of balanced the best qualities in each other. She had someone she could lean on, and would give her the emotional support she needed, and he had someone he could take care of (which we all know is what Nick needs in order to keep himself from getting into more trouble. Then he might stop actually trying to save the people he can’t).

They kind of balanced the best qualities in each other.

And that is why I love Nick/Sara! Sara was the character I first fell for on CSI and it was Nick/Sara that got me hooked. I can see why Sara would seem stiff but I just read her as a very reserved person who's not really sure of herself away from the science. And I guess that's part of why I like her; I'm quite reserved and solitary myself (although I think I'm a little better at the socialising thing). But I always liked the way she was around Nick; she seemed comfortable with him in a way she never really was with anyone else.

Seriously, when I heard that Sara was getting a boyfriend at end of S6, I really thought there was a good chance it might be Nick. But Grissom? After six years of him treating her like crap? *snarls at PTB* I could have a lovely long rant about why it's a Very Bad Idea for both characters (and I don't even like Grissom anymore) but I won't inflict that on you.

I'm trying to stay in my Happy Denial Place regarding GSR but my enjoyment of S7 has been seriously marred. But I'm trying to start writing Nick/Sara again and you've just reminded me of why I fell for them in the first place.

That was longer then I intended. *looks sheepish*

I just read her as a very reserved person who's not really sure of herself away from the science.

I can understand that too--but I didn't really fall for any of the female characters on CSI until Calleigh and Stella. And with Calleigh it even took a while. Sara just never really grabbed me the way I'd've hoped.

But Grissom? After six years of him treating her like crap? *snarls at PTB* I could have a lovely long rant about why it's a Very Bad Idea for both characters (and I don't even like Grissom anymore) but I won't inflict that on you.

I second that. They both have too many issues they need to work out with themselves before they ever can focus on each other. They just don't work.

But I'm trying to start writing Nick/Sara again and you've just reminded me of why I fell for them in the first place.

Hee! Well, I'm glad I could help.

Cameron/Chase

Cameron and Chase are just gorgeous. I mean seriously, if two people who are that pretty are going to be on the same show, they should just be doing it. Period. But there’s other stuff. Chase is also really sweet around her too. Like the whole Tuesdays thing, where he would ask her out every Tuesday until she said yes, and the whole friends-with-benefits thing where he was so clearly into her, and was just doing all these nice things for her. He even competed with an eight year-old for her, which I thought was just cute. Cameron just needs to get over House and they’re good to go.

*nods*

See, around the time that Cameron/Chase took off, I wasn't watching House very much because I didn't have time.

Sooo, imagine my surprise to discover it was going on. You do present a logical and proper argument in favor of it, though. ;)

I have a loooooong list, but I've narrowed it down to two for the moment because I've always been curious about these two: Danny/Sofia and Flack/Calleigh. And if you'[re up for it as well, Mal/Inara

D/S:

I like amusing myself by pairing Danny with a woman with a no-nonsense kind of style, because I think he has a lot more fun when he has to work to get the girl to loosen up. He likes the challenge. And to me, since Calleigh was already out of play, the next woman that kind of fit that bill was Sofia. Plus, they snark very well together once I started writing them, and I love it when a couple snarks well together. And they drove their fellow CSIs insane when they were constantly fighting with each other, and I enjoy writing stuff like that as well. So they just kinda worked for what I enjoy writing.

F/C:

One of the things that I absolutely love about Flack is the way he takes care of the people around him. And I think at this point, Calleigh really needs someone who is going to take care of her instead of someone who is going to add to the drama, and Flack seems to fit that bill rather well. Plus there’s that whole height difference thing, which is kinda adorable. And I can see Flack getting caught up in the whole Southern sweetheart idea. He might be into Calleigh a bit more than the city girls that he’s used to.

M/I

I like Mal and Inara, but going into the series, I didn’t really see the ship so much. There was a lot of sniping, which I liked, but I didn’t really think I could see them romantically. As they kept going though—I started to see them together a bit more. (Although, as much as I adore Wash/Zoe, I’m starting to like Mal/Zoe a bit myself.) I’m still not thrilled with them though, because I think that Mal talks down to her a bit more than he should if he actually cared about her. Maybe if he had decided to be a bit nicer to her about her chosen line of work, I might be a bit more in love with them, but—I just don’t get them.
