delgaComment with any relationship from a fandom that you know I follow, or at least have some knowledge about. I will ramble for 100 words about aforementioned 'ship. This may be incoherent gushing or exclamations of disgust, depending on what it is.
So, who's first? Y'all know kinda what I'm in to (if not, check the userinfo). This will be therapeutic, no?

Adam/Fiona: Honestly? I think they're cute. Sometimes the writing really bugs me because there's often a case of one-upmanship and I think Fiona could be so much stronger than what she actually is (she doesn't need to be Nouska but come on!) I really loved the breakfast scene in the S3 finale (yes, I’m a sap); but I just found it touching. I wish it were more like the episode when we first meet Fi (the flirting, the slight sense of dangereux) but I’ll settle with anything that doesn’t become a soap opera.
Cath/Gris: I just cannot read this ship. I’m sure it’s full of angst and history (like most of my OTPs, actually) but I can’t see it. I can understand a friendship, that makes sense to me. But I can’t see Cath ever having pined away for Gil, nor can I see Gris ever seeing anything in Cath. I don’t think she matches him intellectually. That’s not to say that she’s dumb or anything but she’s not exactly matched to him, is she? The idea of a ship isn’t out of range but I don’t see it and that’s NOT because of the GSR. The GSR isn’t even that great anymore.
Goren/Eames: I love the fics in this fandom when Goren finally loses it and Eames is the only one who can get through to him. Pure fluff but it’s adorable. I don’t think they’d work in canon; they have that banter down pretty well. I once read a fic when Eames married someone else and the two of them entered this self-destructive circle. That’s what I think about this ship – they’re very finely balanced. Too much in either direction would ruin the pairing and I quite like them as they are.
Doggett/Reyes: Oh, go away! I was never ever a Moronica fan and I don’t read this ship at all. I hate it. I could see how the writers were pushing it and it has none of the finesse of Mulder/Scully. I actually resented having this ship forced down my throat. UGH! And it’s actually all because of Moronica. Not Annabeth Gish (whom I love). Not Doggett (whom I also love). Just her. I wanted to throttle her! I only liked her in the weird lip-syncing episode. (Yo!9)
