One True Pairing Ship: Do I even have to name it? ;)
Jack and Irina. I started watching this show at the tender age of 20, and even then the focal point of my interest in the show was a couple whose members were over twice my age! But every time those two were on screen--oh, the tension! Most of the time the killing variety, once or twice the kissing variety, I somehow doubt this couple will ever move off my list of top OTPs of all time.
Canon Ship: See above.
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Oh, but it happened. Really. And, oh wait. ew. Slirina. <--That's right. I just used the controversial moniker.
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: WWBH! While Jack and Irina might be my OTP, these days I am probably even more inclined to read Jack/Nadia when I have the chance. I'm still not certain why, and I'm a little afraid to overthink it too much. It shouldn't have even happened considering my introduction to this 'ship was KML's fic which does not necessarily lead one to suspect the set-up until

I'm sorry it took me so long to respond! Yuletide ate my brain--but I'm all better now ;)

One True Pairing Ship: Willow/Tara
Canon Ship: Willow/Tara
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: 1 ship that did not happen: Angel/Cordelia; 1 ship that did happen (thus necessitating the use of a spork): Willow/Kennedy
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Giles/Buffy (note: post HS), Fred/Lilah
"I dabble a little" Ship: Inara/Kaylee (opposites attract!), Fred/Angel (<--really love this, actually), Echo/Sierra (oh, the identity questions abound), Willow/Fred (nerdy science chattiness FTW
( ... )
I admit I never really connected to Kennedy, but I have to admit that I kind of like it that Willow stuck to girls after Tara. Even though I still think it's weird she goes from straight to gay without even considering bi in between. Still.
Didn't Angel/Cordelia sort of happen, though?
Did you read the Faith & Giles storyline in the Buffy comics? I thought it came darn near to making at least one-sided Faith/Buffy canon.
I did Xander/Spike and Xander/Angel for a porn-battle once. I remember thinking it's an odd ship to have, but the Slash Key is probably somewhere in those episodes I never saw.
but I have to admit that I kind of like it that Willow stuck to girls after Tara. I would totally agree with you except I really didn't see the chemistry between Willow and Kennedy. I think I would have preferred for them to have explored the bi, both because it would have been more interesting and it would have dispensed with that incredibly awkward love scene.
Didn't Angel/Cordelia sort of happen, though? 'Sort of' is the key phrase here. They never actually got together (and in his dream where they did, he called out 'Buffy')
Did you read the Faith & Giles storyline in the Buffy comics? I thought it came darn near to making at least one-sided Faith/Buffy canon. Oh, I totally believe that Faith has a thing for Buffy (even pre-comics)--I would even go so far as to say that Buffy has a thing for Faith. But I also think they would totally destroy each other if they ever got together.

One True Pairing Ship: Pam/Sookie (the 'lesbian weirdness' comment by Sookie this season just cracked me up. More of that, please).
Canon Ship: Hmm..in the books, I'd say Sookie/Eric. But I really am not a fan of Eric in the show--it's like they gave all his snark (and personality) to Pam. So, in the show…I don't know. Umm…Jessica and Hoyt? Maybe?
"If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork" Ship: Sookie/Sam. When they're around each other, I sort of want to smack both of them. It's a collective emotional age thing, I think.
"You are one sick bastard" Ship: Pam/Sookie/Sophie-Anne. C'mon, you know you think it's hot too.
"I dabble a little" Ship: Pam/Sophie-Anne, Pam/Jessica, Pam/Eric/anyone else <--the latter because I love to try and see how they would play off each other in this environment. Because, really? Their maker/made relationship is OMG so true. I don't think it's love--but I also think that's because it's a hell of a lot more fascinating.
