For some reason, the relationship never clicked for me, in the fannish sense that it would have made me obsess over it. I don't obsess over it either, it just snuck up on me & was WAY less painful than shipping BB. I still am a BB shipper but Hodgela has never broken my heart but BB has. Thrice. Srsly. I can only cry so much over ppl WHO R NOT REAL.
It's a shame that usually only secondary characters can get a fulfilling lovelife. YES. What is the MATTER with TPTB??
My experience is that all the really big fandoms are slash fandoms, and also crack fandoms. Oh? The only fandom I'm in that is AWASH in slash is H50. I get why ppl ship Danny/Steve (the love between them is rly thick) but if 2 men rly, truly, deeply love each other (while bickering allllllllllll the time, to my unending amusement) is the only possible interpretation of that they rly just want to ditch their girlfriends/wives & marry each other? I feel that Danny & Steve r like that with all the ppl they love. They express it differently, but they are both men who love deeply & wholeheartedly./endrant
Usually, I latch on to one character and then follow his canon pairing. I do this too, only if the Show is good, after a couple eps I'm in love with all of the cast ;)
(or doesn't exist, like on Merlin - because that show for me is *all about Merlin*) WHAT IS WITH THAT??? In S2 it's like they're trying to kill Merlin...Freya dies, his Dad dies, Arthur is prattish. Can't the kid catch a break? *hugs Merlin* And yes, I ADORE Merlin 100%. I have great respect for Colin's performance. I ship Arthur/Gwen tho & long for the day when Arthur treats Merlin as equal & rly values him.
I want, no I need, happy-end resolution on-screen! AMEN! lol Happiness = good, endless angst = bad. idk what TPTB are so afraid of.
