Picspam: 25 Questions meme
Made for the 25 Questions meme at lots_femslash .
Beware: Image heavy, jsyk.
1. The moment that made you start shipping your OTP.
Honestly? I didn't start officially 'shipping them until I started reading fanfic. I was watching the show (ep after ep after ep) on Netflix, and I thought: "Omg. These two characters are just so baddass and hot and perfect, I need to find some fanfic for them!" But I resisted as long as I could, so as not to be spoiled on the show and I wanted to wait till the season finale. I lasted up until the last few episodes and caved. I did a search and landed at LotS_Femslash and that, as they say, is all she wrote. I was addicted. Hard. Core. I didn't even watch the last episode until like, a few weeks after it aired, I was too busy reading fic. Lol.
2. Favorite Cara cap
Always. This. There is nothing not perfect about this cap.
3. Favorite Kahlan cap
I CAN'T. I JUST CAN'T. *pulls hair out* This is so hard... Alright. Here: *picks one of top faves randomly*
I am in love with this cap as much as I am in love with her.
4. Favorite female character cap (Like, other female cap, yeah?)
I dunno. Just always liked this one. And it's NICCI! <3
5. Favorite OTP cap
Once again, there is no one answer to this. But I chose this cap because (taken out of pesky, insignificant context) the way Cara looks at Kahlan... it just makes me swoon. Swoon all over the place. *swoons*
6. Favorite Cara scene
I know, it's heartbreaking. Cara is being tortured. But first of all, she's a Mord-Sith. So, I mean, c'mon. She's all, "Pssh. bored now". Second, I can't tell you how many "stories" have bounced around in my head where a female hero (and Cara is one, an unconventional hero, which makes her the best kind) is in a similar position. Not to mention: DAHLIA. A woman! Is there to "comfort" her and kiss and stroke Cara's face all, "break for me, baby" and Cara is betrayed and "why are you doing this?" and there's feelings and it's all too much and OMG I LOVE THIS SCENE.
7. Favorite Kahlan scene
I'm starting to regret doing this. I just, can't. There's so many. So very many answers to these questions.
Anyways! So, let's pretend you twisted my arm and FORCED me to pick... I have the biggest hard on for Gangsta MC!Kahlan. (Not to mention the fact that there are two. Count them, TWO! Kahlans in this episode but let's get back on track before my brain officially derails...) Kahlan Amnell. THE MOTHER FUCKING CONFESSOR. Need I say more? Definition of BAMF? Right here, babeh. Right here. You can check yo shit at the door, cuz she ain't havin' it. Word.
8. Favorite female character scene
Well. I both love and hate this scene. Denna finally starts to consider that she is capable of anything. That, perhaps, she has potential to change and be whatever it is she wants. But then... well you know what happens. It both enrages and infuriates me with it's irony.
9. Favorite OTP scene
One scene? .... *grins slyly...*
Never said I played fair. Though, almost the entirety of the ep Desecrated is my favorite Kahlan/Cara moment. But that was too obvious. And I hate working with those caps. And I'm lazy. So there.
10. Freebie (put what you like here)
Don't mind if I do!
:)
11. Favorite OTP fanfiction
Oh. Jeebus. *sigh* Okay.
EVERYTHING EVER WRITTEN by seven_3_oh . But especially the "Between Sacrifice and Duty" (Honesty, Away, Primary and Cold) series. Also, "Kings and Queens". If you have not read these, then... you must be new. Go! Go read now! I'll wait here...
I was gonna make this list of other honorable mentions but it was too long and I can't remember ALL the writers and therefore cannot find links and it feels a little unfair because I want to mention the ones I can remember and so I feel bad but seriously, there are so many. So very many.
(Note about the next few questions: I'd like to point out that I hate quotes. Thanks to a wildly random memory [it's either really good or really bad], I have trouble remembering them. But I will do my best...)
12. Favorite Cara quote
"I'd rather die than grovel on my knees and beg for mercy."
Yeah. This. Pretty much THIS.
13. Favorite Kahlan quote
"You can get out of my chair."
*confesses a bitch!*
14. Favorite female character quote
(I'm going to cheat a little and use something I've already made for tumblr. What? This is taking me WAY TOO LONG!)
Also, I really, really love this quote. Nicci FTW.
15. Freebie (put what you like here)
Well, if you insist...
16. Favorite Cara quote to or about Kahlan
I have two for this. Well, more than two but...
"You don't know the first thing about the Mother Confessor. [...] She's a woman of honor. She spared my life. Even after she learned I killed her sister."
"Stop pretending my life means as much as yours."
17. Favorite Kahlan quote to or about Cara
"Your life is just as important as mine is."
Btw, I'm kinda pissed that there aren't more quotes from Kahlan to/about Cara. Hmph.
(OH! And we reach the .gif part! Ohgod this is gonna get ridiculous... And once again, I'm going to be lazy and use the ones I've already made...)
18. Favorite Cara gif/facial expression
This is just insanely funny to me.
19. Favorite Kahlan gif/facial expression
*le sigh*
20. Freebie (put what you like here)
I'm going to use this as an other honorable mentions .gif spot:
21. Favorite female character gif/facial expression.
Mord-Sith on a mission. Determined, dangerous and sexeh.
22. Favorite Cara fight/epic moment./23. Favorite Kahlan fight/epic moment.
I could go with all the obvious answers to these two questions. BUT! I'm not gonna. Instead, I'm going with two of my all time favorite moves:
It's epically delicious.
24. Favorite female character fight/epic moment.
Okay so, yes. This is a Kahlan .gif but it is technically a Nicci move. Everytime I watch this I'm caught between: "Omg so pertty!" and "Epic move is epic!" and "Oh, no she didn't!"
25. Where you’d like either your OTP or favourite female character to be ten years from the end of the series.
I see the Mother Confessor and her Lord Cara Rahl having lots of Confessor/Mord-Sith hybrid babies and ruling the Midlands and D'Hara in peace, getting shit done, happily ever after. With the occasional smack down on some idiots here and there.
And thus concludes this meme. Well, mostly. There's so much that needed to be mentioned *coughcoughCon'Dar Kahlan*cough* but good lawd I've been working on this thing for a week now and I just can't even.
