This made me laugh so very hard when I saw it in [personal profile] ilthit's journal.

Describe your OTP and make it sound as awful as possible.

*rubs hands together*


1) Mentor/student romance (this describes THREE of my OTPs, two being canon no less)
2) One was willing to believe the worst of the other and the other hardly seemed to care. (That's pretty weak; I love those two so much.)
3) They met when he captured her in war and killed her subordinate.
4) Quoted from Ilthit: "So this one guy dumps his fiancée to run off with someone else for years. When he gets back, he doesn't just expect her to still be waiting around, he wants all three of them to live together."
5) Both daughters of villains, one's a trained killer and the other's a self-taught vigilante.
6) When they met one teased the other so badly he became physically ill.
7) One expressed his lifelong love through stalking and the other through playing up their relationship's incestuous nature with a familial nickname.
8) They encourage each other to commit all manner of petty crimes (in movie verse anyway)
9) The massive codependence between this bitter divorce survivor and this pretty miscreant must be seen to be believed.
10) They are powerful, dysfunctional ex-boyfriends whose tempestuous love affair affects the fates of billions.

5) Cassandra Cain/Stephanie Brown?
7) Tim Drake/Dick Grayson?

Ahh, I'm thinking Dick/Babs might be in here somewhere but I can't find it. Is it the first one?

Yes and yes!

Dick and Babs are not in here because what I came up with for them made me wince too hard.

Have more faith in yourself, you're two for two!

2) Bilbo and Thorin?

... that wasn't whom I was thinking of, but that description also fits them very well.

Let's see how I do:

1) Dick/Bruce?
4) Sam/Rosie/Frodo (? I didn't know you when you were LotR-focused, but it seems logical)
5)Cass/Steph
7) Don/Charlie (*beams at you*)
10) Clark/Lex

As I can't edit comments on LJ, allow me to redact my comment to show that #7 is clearly Tim/Dick, and not Don/Charlie after all.

AHAHA I couldn't do Don/Charlie in any non obvious way! Yeah, 7 is Dick/Tim, and you also got 4 and 5, and 1 does also apply to Bruce/Dick (I just didn't think of it because while I ship that pairing I ship others harder for each of them).

A hint -- Charlie is in one of these pairings, though (obviosuyl) not Don. *wink*

#1 clearly works for Charlie/Amita ;-)

(and wait, are you saying that #10 isn't Clark/Lex? Clark/Bruce, then, maybe? *reads down in comments* ah, I see I was barking up the wrong canon.)

10) Magneto/Xavier

ETA:
3) OT3: Sam/Rosie/Frodo

10 is right on the money! And you mean 4 there, right?

From: [identity profile] bikergeek.livejournal.com
Oh, oops, yes. That was for #4.

Charlie/Amita fits #1 :)

I love your description of #3 :) and #9 :)

I can't figure out #6 or #8!

*giggles delightedly* You're right on #1, as you know, and I am delighted by your amusement at 3 and 9. And it was fun telling you the others I meant -- I can't wait to see your version!

8. Merry/Pippin?

1 and 8 yes, 6 no. (That pairing's up there under a different number.) And your description of 4 was just too perfect.

8) Sherlock Holmes & Irene Adler (Guy Ritchie films).

(Oh LJ, why didn't you give me a comment notification?)

That's an excellent guess, but not whom I was thinking of -- think of the fandom where we met. :D

Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took!

For those of us who are new to all this, what does "OTP" mean?

Technically it is an initialism for "One True Pairing" but in practice it means any pairing (threesome, etc) that one is fond of.
