Name your 15 absolutely favourite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms:

(Note: This has been a rather difficult endeavor, as I am a fickle person and my in-favor pairings are constantly changing. However, I have tried to take my 10+ years of fandom history into account and arrived at this, in no particular order—)

01. Seifer/Squall (Final Fantasy VIII)
02. Yoruichi/Soifon (Bleach)
03. Darren Hayes/Daniel Jones (Savage Garden RPS)
04. Kirk/Spock (Star Trek)
05. Amaterasu/Lachesis (Five Star Stories)
06. Duncan/Methos (Highlander)
07. Arthur/Merlin (Merlin)
08. Yondaime/Kakashi (Naruto)
09. Kakashi/Sasuke (Naruto)
10. Sephiroth/Genesis/Angeal (Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core)
11. Atobe/Tezuka (Prince of Tennis)
12. Nobunaga/Nouhime/Mitsuhide (Japanese history RPF)
13. Shin/Maya/Mitsuomi (Tenjho Tenge)
14. Angel/Buffy (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
15. Hisoka/Illumi (HunterxHunter)

If I had one more spot, I would have added Tom Hagen/Michael Corleone....either that or something from Yuu Yuu Hakusho. Yuusuke/Keiko maybe? Or Kurama/Hiei? Yomi/Kurama, even.

There are some pairing that I thought would be there, like Ben Beckman/Shanks from One Piece, and Krycek/Mulder from X-Files. In retrospect, however, I think I like those pairings more for the sake of one person rather than the relationshp itself, so I did not include them. (Otherwise you would definitely see Zelman Clock-sama on that list. Just sayin'.)

I have been doing three things alternatively in two-minute increments:

1. Reading dark!kinky!Arthur/Merlin porn.
2. Reading about the classic Maya collapse.
3. Planning my dinner.

Sex. Death. Food. The trifecta is all there.
