Re: postcards/wands- I am finally getting organized and trying to sort out who I’m sending what. I’m going to be pm’ing the people who initially commented for a Harry Potter postcard/wand to ask for addresses, but if somehow I miss you, it’s because I’m blind or careless, not that I secretly hate you, so just remind me, okay? And of course, if

10. JACKSON AND LISA! from Red Eye? I think it is! We had that discussion about them once.

I don't really recognize any others. Somebody already got #13.

Your shirt is awesome! It always makes me excited to find fandom things in RL stores.

Also: that secret is so me. Ecspecially with the sexy things. I don't really want it in RL with me but I sometimes like to read it with other people involved. It's a way of exploring a relationship I'll never have/will seek out.

[borg_princess]

*smooches you* I knew as soon as I saw your post that you'd guess it! Indeedy do, tis Jackson/Lisa! :D

I STILL NEED TO D/L THAT MOVIE, AUGH. I think I've watched it again since our convo, but somehow it is not on my laptop, what is this? *tsks at self*

Yeah, they're pretty obscure, even though I tried to give hints. Most of them are movies!

*hugglesquish* I knew you'd identify with that secret as well. IDK, it's- it feels like a safe way of vicariously experiencing something that interests me but only in the hypothetical sense. I love romance, I love reading about people who overcome obstacles and their own issues to be together, but I'd never want/feel capable of it myself. And I don't feel shortchanged, tbh, I know people outside fandom don't get it, but god, when I read an absolutely brilliant fic, it's just...it's everything to me, and the emotions I go through, it's...I can't imagine how anything in RL could measure up to how perfect the fic/ship is, y'know

[revengent]

Yayyyyyy! I actually watched the movie too after we talked about it whenever ago. Such a good movie, aside from the rest of the cast being kind of lulzy xD

Is 12 the Dollhouse one? Boyd/Echo, Boyd/Adelle, Echo/Alpha SOMETHING. I need to rewatch this series.

That's the same way with me tbh. When I really like a pairing I really like it and obsess a lot over it. I definitely live through them. It helps me understand how other people have a relationship too. Yep.

AHHHH I KNOW. From that moment on: <3

[borg_princess]

I've just placed a request on it at the library, so hopefully I'll get it soon enough. Or I'll see if I can find a link on the internet...

Btw, I was thinking- I don't believe I could do justice to my ships by writing fics, as you've decided to, but I wanted to do some sort of homage to these small, unloved ships, so I was thinking of making fanvids...if I could find appropriate songs. Any ideas for Lisa/Jackson? I'm having a tough time. I just finished one for my other assassin movie (doing that and then seeing your comment about writing fics was what gave me the lightbulb moment), but it's only an instrumental song, because I can't find anything with lyrics that fits. And I've started looking at songs for Hannibal/Clarice, but that's pretty tough, lol. So if you have any ideas for Red Eye, hit me!

Lol, the Dollhouse ship was Adelle/Dominic! :P You do need to rewatch if you don't remember he was the spy/right-hand man who shot her! I don't remember a lot other than that, though. Might try and get my cousin into it, hehe, we just

[sunkrux]

I'm shocked that NONE of those are from TLW. You disappoint me.

;-b

[borg_princess]

Hee! Well, if it was a list of my fave ships ever or most Meant To Be couples, yes, but this was the most unhealthy and twisted ships! I don't think Marguerite/Roxton fit under that!

(okay, their meeting was pretty hardcore, lol, but they weren't seriously trying to kill or maim or otherwise undermine each other like the ships in this post!)

[sunkrux]

Yeah yeah. I'll let it slide. This time. ;)

[borg_princess]

I promise, whenever I compile my 'Greatest Ships Ever' list, M/R will def be on it!

[mellamomuyloco]

I followed you from revengent, and I must say I'm surprised to see nobody's guessed #6 - Betelgeuse/Lydia!

[borg_princess]

Ohai! *waves* Any friend of Rev's is a friend of mine. ^_^ And way to go, you got it!

(I'd be surprised except I think either a) most people haven't seen/don't remember this movie or b) would never have guessed anyone could ship these characters together, lol)

I thought your name sounded familiar, and when I checked out your journal, I remembered reading your post on HP recasting a while back! That was pretty cool!

[sailorem]

Uuum, all I got was #5 (which I see is already guessed) and Patrick Jane and whatshername from the Mentalist for #2 *sheepish*

And oh wwooooooww that shirt and keyring! I HAVE YET TO FIND A STORE THAT SELLS COOL HARRY POTTER THINGS! WAAAH!

Also, I totally understand about forcing yourself to leave a full 48 hours before you want to when fangurling with a stranger about a mutual fandom love haha <3

[borg_princess]

Hee, it amuses me that a few people thought of Jane/Lisbon for #2! Because...yeah, FBI + psychic, true dat, but she's not really trying to capture him! Keep him in line, sure, but lolno, I'm referring to a movie in which the FBI agent is pursuing a psychic. ^_^ HMM, MYSTERIOUS

[weird_fin]

it kills me to walk into Popcultcha ....- but no HP?
Really? I thought they would have. At least they have some stuff online.

Have you ever been into Minotaur in Melbourne CBD? Apparently they have cool stuff (I've yet to go!)

[borg_princess]

Oh, I exaggerated- I just mean they have the two aisles of Dexter crap, and then on the narrow end part, they have a couple pathetic figurine replicas that look nothing like the characters. *eyeroll* I just find it ridic that they have all these shelves of merch for ancient movies or for obscure shows, but hardly anything for one of the biggest franchises!

I've...heard of Minotaur, can't remember if I've been there. I think I might've, and was disappointed. Jacob promised me tons of HP stuff and there was like, a couple Hagrid figurines and that was it. They had stuff for other shows, like DW and Dexter, but yeah, not much for me.

3. Wolverine and Silver Fox or Lady Deathstrike?

UM. YOUR SHIPS ARE SO UNIQUE. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THESE ARE?!

[borg_princess]

Noooo...although a) I see how you could think that, and b)damn, now that you remind me of it, I could've added Wolverine and another character to that list. Oh, well, saving it for the next time!

LOL, UNIQUE IS A NICE EUPHEMISM FOR IT! As it stands now, the following have been guessed:

1. He’s a serial killer. She’s the FBI agent trying to capture him. Hannibal/Clarice from Silence of the Lambs/Hannibal
3. He’s escaped from an organization that kidnapped and experimented on him. She’s the agent sent to bring him back to be their lab rat. Jarod/Miss Parker from The Pretender
4. He kidnaps her brother and sends her on a dangerous quest to retrieve the boy. Sarah/Jareth from Labyrinth
5. His driving motivation in life is to kill her childhood sweetheart. And he’s also tried to make her walk the plank once. Wendy/Hook from Peter Pan
6. He’s dead. (undead?) And he’s been hired to terrify her family into fleeing their house. Also, they end up married... *g* Lydia/Beetlejuice from...Beetlejuice10. He’s an assassin. She’s his pawn.

[unnecessary_]

I only even know these:

Sarah/Jareth from Labyrinth
Wendy/Hook from Peter Pan
Lydia/Beetlejuice from...Beetlejuice
