Meme from everyone:

Comment with the name/title of a fandom I'm aware of, no matter how obvious you think the answers will be, and I'll reply to you with the relationships (canon or not) from it I 'ship. Also, you're free to reply in subthreads and ask me why I ship or don't ship something.

Hmm. That's not going to work for me since I do ship a lot, y'know. Maybe 'comment with the name/title of a fandom I'm aware of and some sort of qualifier like "het" or "threesomes" or "ships featuring a particular character"'? If it's a fandom I'm not familiar with I'll make something up; Veronica/Weevil 4eva, etc.

Oh, that's going to take a while...

Let's see, my main ones - the ones I would ask for, say, if I was going 'write me Buffyverse femslash plz' - are Buffy/Cordelia (that would have been fabulous during the high school years) and Dawn/Tara. Oh, I'm in the minority that loved Willow/Kennedy too. I'm all for Dawn slash in general, so Dawn/Kennedy, Dawn/Cordelia, Dawn/Anya, Dawn/Kit, Dawn/Amanda and Dawn/Vi are all up there too. Season 1-3 Buffy/Willow, too. Spotting a high school femslash fondness yet?... I could go for Buffy/Tara and Anya/Tara too. Over on Angel there's Fred/Cordelia. And Lilah/anyone's just hot.

I'm not much for Faith pairings in fic, though I liked the Buffy/Faith subtext in the show.

I think Buffy/Cordy and Buffy/Willow work best as High school femslash. That's not to say that it doesn't work when they're older, just that it loses some of it's flavour if that makes any sense.

Yes, exactly. I think in general I'm often drawn to that awkward adolescent crush/love when done right, especially f/f or m/m. Buffy/Willow would be the sweet best friends thing; Buffy/Cordelia would be the fabulous, bitchy, one-upmanship and unexpected empathy Mean Girls thing.
