hey babe <3 i'm also procrastinating and Illustrator isn't working with me atm so: A, M, P, U, V.
A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They donât have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.
At the top of my head right now:Leslie and Ben (Parks and Recreation) - I bingewatched Parks in under a week and I regret absolutely nothing. You know whatâs better than Ben and Leslie? Drunk Ben and Leslie! [âWHAAAAT? ITâS YOU. I LOVE YOU. YOUâRE MY SEXY ROOMMATE. WE LOVE EACH OTHERâ - Ben Wyatt, Human Disaster]Theyâre just so darn freaking cute itâs insane.
Julie and Maddie (Code Name Verity) - Theyâre a platonic OTP and *insert mad screaming and screeching because feelings and I donât want to spoil you about anything regarding CNV*
Lili and Gerda (The Danish Girl) - Complicated feelings about historical fiction aside, Alicia and Eddie did so great on this film and I kind of want Alicia to marry me idk
M - Name a character that youâd like to have for a friend.Leslie Knope. I think everyone needs a Leslie in their lives.
P -Â Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)
Okay, this is totally not random because itâs been done lots of times, but I have yet to see an Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind AU for Castle and even if I no longer watch the show I still peruse fics and Iâm just like, please, pleaaaaase, fic writers get on that ASAP.
U - Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why theyâre your favorites. (And V - Which character do you relate to most?)
Melinda May from Agents of SHIELD - Iâve written miles and miles of tag meta about May, but what I love most about her is how sheâs so laconic, as a character, and in how she deals with her emotions. They kind of framed Mayâs emotional turmoil with Skyeâs earthquake powers - where May was teaching her to repress them and it just ended up in the latter passing out from ruptured capillaries and muscles because she wasnât stopping them - she was just directing them inwards. And that tugs at my heart place every time. I mean, being all zen and shit about your problems is great and all, but sometimes you have to just let it out, so to speak.Lin Beifong from The Legend of Korra - HA. Now that I think about it, Lin is actually the Melinda May of the Avatarverse. Seemingly stoic. Laconic. Is a supporting character at most but has a verbose following here on tumblr who glean so many insights and great meta from what little is implied on the show. Extremely badass. Middle aged. Wow. I hope you find the time to give ATLA and LOK a chance, babe. So you can understand my slight obsession with this universe hahaha.Kate Beckett from Castle - Duh. I canât think of anyone else right now haha but I think itâs safe to say our early friendship was hinged on our feelings about Katherine Houghton Beckett and how we both watched her grow and eventually marry her favorite writer like I still legitimately donât understand how their ship exists. And so many other reasons but I think sheâs a character you never get over and she just stays with you even if you hate whatâs happening in present canon lol Â
