one of those knights looking for the holy grill
Oh today. I don't even know what to do with it; suffice to say that I have spent roughly $50 on necessary but unwanted stuff, gone into town on three separate occasions to get the same damn thing, tripped down the stairs, and actually accidentally stepped in dog shit. Looked at one way, clearly I have some petty bad karma to work out; looked at another, I have actually done everything I needed to do, I got a few nice walks in, I am undamaged from my fall, and I'm pretty sure my shoes are clean. I'm still very ready for it to be tomorrow.
There is fail on the internet (surprise!!) but I would much rather link to 119 Ways to Store and Organize Your Cats. Also, I have a meme:
Comment on this entry with a pairing I ship from one of my fandoms and I will tell you:
1. When I started shipping them
2. What I think their challenge is
3. What makes me happy about them
4. What makes me sad about them
5. What moment I wish had never happened
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other
7. My happily ever after for them
Okay, White Collar time. It'd better be good.

Sam/Gene:
1. When I started shipping them: ...Probably around when Gene slammed Sam into that filing cabinet in the pilot! Yeah.
2. What I think their challenge is: Oh dear. Well, Gene Hunt is a homophobic bastard police officer in the 1970s, which I imagine would be kind of a road block. Also, it's not like Sam would make it easy, because he spends most of his time fighting Gene anyway.
3. What makes me happy about them: Sam makes Gene a better person! Gene makes Sam a ... more human and almost certainly much happier person! They fight each other! They do that synchronized policing thing!
4. What makes me sad about them: I don't know if they could ever be really happy or comfortable being with each other even if it was necessary to be together.
5. What moment I wish had never happened: Mm, I don't very much like how in the finale Sam goes back to the s1 notion that maybe if he destroys Gene he'll wake up.
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Well, I suppose Gene could stay with his wife and Sam could be happy with Annie? I can live with that, anyway.
7. My happily ever after for them: They drive off into the sunset together and fight crime forever!
And Holmes/Watson (also: YAY for that author! HER STUFF IS FANTASTIC):
1. When I started shipping them: I honestly don't know! I suspect I went into the stories assuming that they were having a thing.
2. What I think their challenge is: They are a couple of Victorian gentlemen who have quite a bit of public attention on them, so they'd have to be very discreet. Also, I suspect that Holmes would take a while to get around to the idea, since he does his best to eschew emotional passion.
3. What makes me happy about them: THEY FIGHT CRIME! (I am sensing a pattern emerging.) They have the utmost respect for each other, and their friendship makes me glow.
4. What makes me sad about them: The two-year period where Watson thinks Holmes is dead sort of rends me.
5. What moment I wish had never happened: It would be a lot easier to ship them comfortably if Watson didn't have off-screen wives! (This is why I am fond of the new film: MARY IS AWESOME. But if I was doing film-canon I think I'd start answering all these questions a little differently.)
6. Who I'd be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Watson can totally be with film!Mary, that would be awesome. I can't actually imagine Holmes with anyone else.
7. My happily ever after for them: They continue living on Baker Street together, solving crime!

Also, I heard about Amelia bullying you into actually writing your EoT fic. Bwahahaha. =D
