Well, it's after midnight but let's just pretend it's still Valentine's Day, all right?
Originally I was going to do a "Favorite Ships of All Time" picspam. This is NOT that. I started working on it (making my own caps and going from dvd to dvd) and it was just taking a rather epically long time. So...mid-way through I decided to just do this instead.
Since I started doing the "of all time" picspam there is a chance I may eventually finish it in the future. lol but that's a big "may" because I always want to do certain things on LJ that I never have time to do.
So, these are my favorite ships that I'm currently really into (in kind of alphabetical order):
Cappie & Casey (Greek)
I used to think that they wouldn't even get together until the very end of the show. I am glad to be proven wrong. But the only reason I thought that in the first place was because I can't even imagine them having ~drama~. Issues, for sure, who doesn't have issues? But I naively can't see them breaking up permanently.
They are rather perfect.

The Avett Brothers - I and Love and YouDumbed down and numbed by time and age.
You’re dreams that catch the world the cage.
Three words that became hard to say.
I and Love and You.
I and Love and You.
I and Love and You.
Damon & Elena (The Vampire Diaries)
There are a million and one reasons why this is a bad idea. But they have so much chemistry that I no longer care about any of that.
And that's really saying something.

Run Toto Run - Catch My BreathI needed to catch my breath

I told you so
You just ignored it
Jeff & Annie // Jeff & Britta // [and Troy & Abed] (Community)
I ship this entire show with itself.
Seriously, I love everyone with everyone else and they should all have a big giant study group orgy.
...But maybe without Chevy Chase.
What I really love is how the two (potential?) canon couples both really work for me. While I do think Joel McHale would have chemistry with a rock, I do give most of the credit for this to the writers.

When I never came around
You were always good at putting words together

Lois & Clark (Smallville)
I have loved Lois & Clark in every version of Superman I've ever seen (lol and I honestly have seen most of them. What? I'm a nerd!) and this version is no different.

I've liked them since the pilot, even when I almost didn't want to.
But when Pacey looks at someone with that face of his, how am I supposed to resist?

I left these two pairings for last since they're not exactly current. But since I've been doing my re-watch (and first-time watch of ATS) they feel current to me.
...and this is my list so I can add them if I want!
Buffy & Spike (Buffy The Vampire Slayer)
If I had done my "Favorite Ships Of All Time" picspam they would have been on it. I had them at #4 if you were curious. That means that to me, they are epic.
They completely took me over back when I was in high school. And after watching the show again this year? I honestly think I love them more now than I ever did back then.

You don't mind if you do

2 Fred & Wesley (Angel)
Just putting together this section of the picspam is making me tear up.
Individually they are two of my favorite characters in anything. And I just love how delicately and wonderfully their story was written.
I still really want to do a picspam that tells their whole story from before they met until after they died. Because they are so epic that there is actually a story before and after everything.
