O T P :)

See, that's tricky. I'm kind of caught partway between two OTPs - Avengers: Maria Hill/Steve Rogers, and Pacific Rim: Mako Mori/Raleigh Becket.

I'd probably have to go Mako/Raleigh, because I have more current story ideas about them than I do Maria/Steve.

[tielan]

Oh wait, I'm a dingbat.

O: Choose a song at random, what ship does it remind you of?

"The Best Thing" - Reliant K

This one is definitely a Raleigh/Mako song. It's just got that exuberance about it that's very much Raleigh, and the attitude towards Mako that he shows all through the movie.

T: What are your favorite male/male ships or female/female ships?

M/M current favourite ship would probably be Pacific Rim: Chuck/Yancy.

F/F would be Teyla/Laura Cadman from SGA.

P: Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).

So many ideas, so little time!

My favourite AUs are always Black Jewels, Firefly, and lately Nalini Singh's Psy-Changelings universe is rather an enjoyable one. I like the fantasy AUs - particularly the fusion options, and most especially where the characters aren't necessarily the 'easy' choices.

That song does sound just like Raleigh's little face!

L. Yes, I totes want to hear what story you'd commission if given the chance.

[tielan]

Heheh. Someone actually already asked this over on LJ.

Maria Hill/Steve Rogers, prompt "intimate".

Because there are so few artists out there able to draw Maria Hill - or who have the inclination. And none of them would draw Maria with Steve, because, well, Steve is meant for better other things than a woman and one who's a bitch in comics canon.

V?

V: Do you have any 3-way ships? If so, what?

Only really one: Raleigh/Mako/Chuck, and the Chuck/Raleigh portion of it is more about Mako than it is about each other. It's kind of my subversion of white dick fencing.

Anything that lots of people wrote really well for?

I wish I could enjoy Clint/Nataha more in MCU. I wish I could have seen Teyla and Ronon as more than a sibling relationship in SGA (or that people weren't just shipping the coloured people out of the way of their white dick fencing).
