Well, I'm done with Basic, and AIT, and have reported to my next duty station. However, I'm still in Reception and haven't been placed with my unit yet. I don't even know what my unit is yet. I plan to get a laptop with the next month and half or so, and then I should be able to make regular updates of any stories I might put up, and I truly have been inspired by the new state I'm in like I haven't been in quite some time. So I'm really happy about that. Peace and Love, Dizzy
P.S. Active Army rules all! ;)
Oh, and I updated my ships a little bit. I find I've become more focused on certain ships after my forced sabbatical, and some things have just plain changed. So, that's really all.
Well, since this is ff.net, I've decided to lists all my fanfiction obsessions. Cause I'm bored right now and I'm tired of having a blank profile. So here's how it will work. Under the main catagories, I'll list what I read the most. Then under those, it will be my ships or characters or whatever that I like and possibly a short explaination.Movies
X-Men --
Pyro/Rogue or John/Marie
Pyro
Rogue
My obession with Ryro has beat out all others when it comes to X-Men, thus the update. I find I can't get enough of the two, and I swear I could write a whole senior paper on why the should be together and my insights into the ship, so I won't get into. Suffice to say that I just love the characters, in amounts which are probably unhealthy. But that's what shipping is all about, right?
Batman Begins --
Batman/Bruce/OC,
Batman/Bruce/Catwoman
See, I love Batman. I love Bruce. He's right up there with Superman (God, I don't know what I'd do if I ever had to choose!) and I love the new movies. The only thing I don't like is Rachel Dawes. This is partly because I don't like Katie Holmes, and partly because I absolutely hated that one scene near the end of the movie. The one where she kisses him and then says "I can't be with you" like a little whore. Obviously, I have strong feelings on this matter. It's cruel to kiss him, make him think things are good, and then say what she did. I cannot condone it, and it really makes me dislike the character, because come on! What girl wouldn't want Batman? Personally, if I knew Batman's real identity and he wanted to be with me, I would never, ever, in a million years, walk away from him. Because I love him. Every part of him. So I hate Rachel Dawes. Maybe this will change when Dark Knight comes out, but it's not a strong possibility. And as for Catwoman...well, just look at them. They both dress up as animals and run around in the dark. Who could be more perfect for each other? lol
James Bond --
James/Vesper,
James/OC
I love James Bond. He's a great character and the movies are almost always fantastic. I wasn't sure about Daniel Craig and his blonde self, but he's turned out to be pretty darn good. Basically, I ship James with almost anyone. I love Vesper, but she is dead, and it'd be nice for Bond to find love again. My only stipulations about the OC that he's with is that it's actually a good character. No Mary-Sues or stupid charries are good enough for my James.
The Bourne Trilogy (omg, The Bourne Ultimatium kicks ass like nothing else!) --
Jason/Nikki,
Jason/Nikki used to be more of a background ship, but then I saw Ultimatum, which really left things open for more possibilities. Marie was great, but she is dead (notice a theme, anyone?) and I've always liked Nikki's character. I loved all the Nikki/Jason interaction in Ultimatum, and have lots of questions about their possible past relationship. Though I do ship Nikki/Jason/David for all time now, I was glad that Nikki wasn't really a romantic interest in Ultimatum, because I accept the fact that Jason really did love Marie, and even if he did have a possible past relationship with Nikki that he now remembers, I still like the fact that he didn't jump straight into another relationship. I like the fact that he mourns for Marie, that he still loves her. In time, however, he will move on. With Nikki, of course.
Oh, and I recently watched the special edition special features for this, and even the director and producers have said there is something beneath the surface with those two, so HA HA HA to anyone who called me out on this ship. (yes, I am that petty.)
Books
Harry Potter --
Draco/Hermione
I ship other smaller ships for HP, but none so much as D/Hr. I love them. I fell into a story about them when I first started reading fanfics years ago, and I fell in love with them as a couple. You'll notice the majority of my stories, and the longest ones, are D/Hr. When I first started reading the books, it was obvious to me that Ron and Hermione were going to get together. I've never been a fan of them, even before D/Hr invaded my life. IMHO, Hermione is just too smart, too deep, too emotional - just too much for Ron. Though I've accepted that they will get together in the 7th book, that doesn't mean I've given up hope for D/Hr. Cause after Deathly Hollows comes out, everything will be speculation. I have no problem with R/Hr in the books, because it's my firm belief that they would never make it as a serious and committed couple. So after the 7th book, there will be plenty of space for D/Hr. I'm willing to wait.
So yeah, the epilogue sucked monkey butt and I refuse to acknowledge it as cannon any longer. I've just been ignoring it for some time, and that seems to be working quite well. Oh, and can I just say how deeply disappointed I was in Jo when I read that? Not for the content itseft (I mean, really, who didn't see that coming?) but for the way it was written. It reminded me of a badfic written by a ten-year-old. And I hate to say that, but it's the way I feel. After that masterpiece of a book, she ends with that? I find it incredibly sad.
Pride and Prejudice --
Darcy/Elizabeth
I can't help it, I love them. It's only gotten worse since I read Darcy's Story, which, if you haven't read and you're a fan of PandP, you should really read. I love the characters and the story and just everything. Not much more explaining to do.
There are a lot of books that I love but don't really read fanfics about, simply because there isn't enough or they aren't good. But I'm a huge reader...two full bookshelves in my room and I'm planning on getting another one soon.
TV Shows
The Office --
Jim/Pam,
Jim and Pam finally got it! You have no idea how happy the finale made me, really. I just could not believe it. So great. "Are you free for dinner tonight?" "Yes." "Alright then, it's a date." So fabulous! I haven't seen any of the episodes of the newest season, being away at Basic and all, but I figure that's okay because of the WGS and whatnot and I looked it up and found that they are indeed a happy couple now and I am just so happy about it.
Smallville --
Clark/Lois,
Well, obviously, it's Clois. I do love them so. Oh, and just as an aside, DEATH TO CHLOE AND LANA!!!!!!!!! Ahem...sorry about that. Can't control it. I actually liked Chloe when I first began watching the show...and I can't pinpoint the exact moment I started to dislike her, but I hate her now. Lana...well, Lana is just a fool. A whorish fool. She's like a confused little girl and I hate the way she acts sooo innocent. And I hate the way she continually hurts Clark. Really, that's where most of my hated comes from for her...she just hurts him so much, and I hate it. Clark deserves love and happiness...with Lois.
I haven't seen the new season of Smallville either, but my friend says I've only missed heartache and frustration, so I'm actually not that upset about it. Now I'm completely obsessed with the new Superman movie and JLA.
CSI (Las Vegas) --
Lady Heather
I've always loved her character, even though previously she was only in two episodes. I just found her to be extremely cool. And what with her being around again, even if it only is just one more episode, has rekindled my love for her character. She is the Shit!
CSI: New York --
Danny/Lindsey
I love them. Athough I don't have the opprotunity to watch the new episodes, I love these two to death. I love the original CSI more than anything, but I don't really have any ships on that one and even though I don't watch NY all the time, I am a hardcore D/L shipper.
House, MD --
Chase
House/Cuddy
I really love Chase. I just love him to death! I've always loved the actor, and I also love his character on House. House/Cuddy because their banter is cute and I love House and want him to be happy.(And he wants to take her to a play! lol)
Lost
Jack/Juliet
I always loved Jack. At first I shipped Jack/AnaLucia, but then she died (again!). (I'm still sad about that). But anyway. Then Juliet came and I was like, 'yes, they belong together!'. Because I hate Kate. It's my opinion that you can't really love two people like that at the same time. Because if you really love someone, you give them your whole self - there is no room for another person - not in the romantic sense, anyway. So Kate is a whore (too many themes here). And I love Juliet's character. People can say whatever they're going to say about her, but she's no different than Jack - She just wants to go home, and she will do anything to make it happen. I love Jack/Juliet!
Anime/Manga
Witch Hunter Robin --
Amon/Robin
They belong together, and that's just that. I refuse to accept or acknowledge otherwise. Also, I am now the proud owner of the collector's edition entire series.
DNAngel --
Daisuke/Satoshi
I didn't always ship these two...A friend of mine pointed out all this stuff to me, and I was like, "omg, you're right." This is really my only slash ship. I don't consider myself a real slasher. So now I ship these two...
Cowboy Bebop --
Spike
I just like Spike. Don't really know why. Just do.
Avatar: The Last Airbender --
Zuko/Katara,
Toph
Zuko/Katara remind me of D/Hr, actually. That is part of of my theory as to why I like them so much. I just like Toph as a character...don't really like her with anyone for now.
And really, that's all. There are a lot more fandoms that I simply adore, but that I don't find enough good fanfics to read them all the time and for them to be mentioned. And it's like, 2 in the morning, my stupid bro will not stop bothering me, and now I'm getting off. Just realized how incredibly long this is...big change from nothing, eh?
