stormkeeper_lovedorisList the first five OTPs that come to mind and then click the link to answer the questions:
1. Zoe/Wash -- Firefly
2. Simon/Kaylee -- Firefly
3. Rogue/Gambit – X-men
4. Storm/Wolverine – X-men
5. Aja/Craig - Jem
Questions and answers behind the cut!
1. When did you first fall in love with ship number 1?
It took a little while. I had already watched the movie and several episodes of the show before I found myself slowly falling for this couple. I never disliked them but I didn’t love them until I had time to really absorb a few episodes
2. When did you fall in love with ship number 5?
I wouldn’t say I’m in love with them, but I’m in very strong like. Craig’s only in two episodes, and I think I started to like him and Aja after I saw “Talent Search” a few times.
3. What is your favorite moment of ship number 3?
There are so many! Maybe the scene in an early episode where she kisses him through her glove. Or a scene in a much later episode where he tells her – just as she’s being dragged away by Sinister -- that he’s never said these words anyone before but he loves her. (I’m referring to X-men: The Animated Series {XTAS}, in case you were wondering)
4. What will the ship be if you take the boy from ship 2 and the girl from ship 1 and mesh them? If one or both of the ships are slash, then pick and choose.
Simon and Zoe? I don’t see it myself. But someone once wrote that she saw several little examples illustrating that Zoe cared about Simon. Not in a romantic way at all, just in a way that meant she kind of liked having him around.
5. Vise versa.
Way too many people have written Wash/Kaylee, and I’d rather not add any more fuel to that fire. I see a strong friendship but I don’t see a speck of romance between the two. She’s too devoted to Simon and he’s too devoted to Zoe.
6. What's your favorite moment for ship 4?
Well, technically this pairing isn’t canon and there aren’t any moments in XTAS where they are a couple – except for this two-part AU episode where they are married. Loved every minute of that. Except for Storm’s bizarre hairdo (for whatever reason, the creators gave her a Mohawk in that episode!)
7. How long was there between the time you got into the fandom and the time you started shipping ship number 3?
At least 3 or 4 months. I started out as a fan of the X-men movie, and I really liked Jean/Cyclops and Jean/Wolverine for a while. (I still like Jean/Cyclops). I didn’t take much notice of Gambit when I first got into XTAS, and now he’s one of my favorite characters! Like with Zoe/Wash in FF, I didn’t notice this pair right away either. Sometimes it’s more fun when your liking of a pairing creeps up on you.
8. When did you start shipping ship number 4?
This one also took a while for me. I don’t think I got into them until I was in the middle of writing an epic long X-men fanfic (it ended up being over 1300 pages in Word – no lie!) and I had a subplot where Storm and Wolverine had a “friends with benefits” relationship. I got so many emails asking me to put them together as a “real” couple. Finally, somehow, writing about that got me into their pairing at last. That didn’t happen till I’d been in the fandom for at least a year.
9. Take three random people from three of the ships and create an OT3?
I’m so not into OT3s. Sorry
10. Rank your OTPs in order.

...*dawns* I think it's time to go icon searching (though it's really time to start the writing hour, crap I suck).
