What else do you ship?

[misshoneychurch88]

well I am always right heehee *evil grin*

[laundry basket]

REMUS AND TONKS ALL THE WAY!

Sorry. Got a little carried away there.

I also ship Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, and Fred/Angelina.

[StormAngel]

hmmm... Fred/Angelina quite's okay... But I don't really like it.. don't ask me why... ~~

[misshoneychurch88]

oh thats a cute one, not one that would be on the tip of my tounge, but I like it

[ιady ταвz]

lol...it is cute, but i like Fred/me better hehe

[misshoneychurch88]

well don't we all, but unless we can find a way to travel into other universes, I think we may be screwed on that one

[ιady ταвz]

ah..damn time turners arent real!!

[misshoneychurch88]

though they prolly wouldn't help much either, now a universe turner on the other hand...

[ιady ταвz]

ah yes, not a bad idea...i shall go into a mad scientist mode and try to create one

[StormAngel]

lolz... I will be waiting to buy it.. ~~

[MinnieQuill]

What else do I ship? My dear god that's a hard one.
Harry/Ginny (it is quite cute) but then I read a FANTASTIC Draco/Ginny one so now I can't make up my mind. Not to mention the many BRILLIANT Harry/Hermione one's out there. In general I will only pair Ron with Hermione but on the whole in fanfiction they tend to annoy me.
Umm...seeing as I only tend to read fics with Minerva McGonagall in them I tend to have a very narrow pairing knowledge.
I'm currently LOVING Sirius/Minerva at the moment (blame my friend; she sent me the fic 'A Game of Cat and Dog AND made me write 'Sway Me Smooth'. I'm also fond of Minerva/Remus. Basically I like any pairing with Minerva. lol (cept femslash - I just don't think Minerva is gay.)

[misshoneychurch88]

I'm in the boat wiht you on any Minerva...and I can't do slash with her either...other characters I'm totally fine with, but it doesn't fit her...it might just be that I see alot of myself in her, and I'm straight so I'm just projecting...wow I need to take less Sociology and Psyche classes lol

oh and by the by, you have spurned me to become obsessed with the song sway me smooth...I now own three different versions, and am working on more

[MinnieQuill]

REally? Oh dear; I'm sorry. I have two versions of 'Sway'. One by Michael Buble and the other by the girl thingycat Dolls. What artists are your three from?

[misshoneychurch88]

girl thingycat dolls, Dean Martin and Rosemary Clooney...I wanted Michaels Buble's version, but it wan't on itunes there are a couple of versions that look interesting, but I'm waiting on those

[childminerva]

I listened to some samples and I think I like the Rosmary Clooney and Dean Martin versions best. The Michael Buble and girl thingycat Doll's versions were alright.

[misshoneychurch88]

they're a bit faster and a little funkier, especially the pcd. I like the older ones best, but I also really like MB's voice, it's really nice. I wish they would ut that album on itunes, it has some of my fav songs on it

[osusprinks]

Rosemary Clooney is one of my favorite singers! She was just too amazing. I love her version of that song.

[misshoneychurch88]

yeah, I think her's is my fave, and her version of MAmbo Italiano is absolutly fab

[StormAngel]

hmm... I still prefer Dean Martin's version best..

[childminerva]

yeah, that one is amazing. but then, I just love Dean Martin...I have his christmas music on my ipod. He also does the best "Baby it's cold outside"

[misshoneychurch88]

oh yeah...you know Dino's just freaking awsome...it's a pretty close tie between the two of them for the best, but I think RC's has a little more...spunk maybe, I dunno, something, but then Dino's is a bit faster...so i am again ata loss

[misshoneychurch88]

oi sorry for double posting, but i sorted it out. Dino's version of Sway is my fav, but Rosemary Clooneys version of Mambo italiano...I was getting them all mixed up

[ιady ταвz]

ooh i love that song, its on a Olive Garden commercial lol

[childminerva]

so it is
I like Rosemary's voice, but really all versions of the song "Sway" are lovely. It's a great song.

[misshoneychurch88]

oh God the bleeping Olive Garden...ok I can still deal, I mean the Who is in VW adverts so...

[nemi]

I feel a bit stupid. I have the PCD version of that song and I've never heard it, or any of the other versions... or indeed anything by Rosemary Clooney or Dean Martin - except for on those adverts that repeat themselves over and over again, pretending the viewer is stupid and saying things like: "Get all the classic love songs in an 8-disc box for only £19.99! Get a random extra disc free if you pay with your credit card! Call this number free or log on to our site! That's 8 discs plus an extra one if you pay with your credit card! That makes 9! Only £19.99! What a bargain!" etc. Which are even more annoying than "join my club and get a month's free sample of my product" commercials by Victoria Principal et al - all go on and on, but the adverts always have "£9.99 p&p" printed in tiny writing at the bottom of the TV screen. There are too many amazing old songs! I have loads of old music but there are just too many people for me to know about everything.. I guess it's because I tend to veer towards country (such as Johnny Cash and John Denver).

I haven't heard anything by Michael Buble either. I've only heard of him because he's dating Emily Blunt (who was brilliant in The Devil Wears Prada; in a reeeaaally weird way she reminded me of Min aged 16-24, even though the character was panicky and was working for someone she hated, which Min would never do).

Aaaand so I'm not off-topic, what else do I ship? I think I've already posted this once, but I can't even remember what I said. I also like pretty much anything with Minerva in it if it's written well, although I don't actually read it that often. I read a really good Remus/Minerva one where Minerva had the same birthday as me (someone didn't read the October 4th on the Lexicon, but oh well)!! Ever had one of those moments in which you go high over something really trivial like that?

I can't stand yuri, especially those really wacky triangles like Trelawney/Minerva/Hermione. I don't mind yaoi - I've always thought Sirius/Remus at-school fics are cute, and recently my friend dumped a load of HarryDraco fics on me, and I was surprised to find the stories themselves were good, although I don't think it's ever going to happen. I pair Harry with anyone really (except Cho). He fits with Hermione, Ginny, Luna and Parvati (who are the four people I've read about him being with, again excluding the aforementioned cow, who I love bashing every time I even mention her in a story for one line). Womaniser. I don't think Ron really suits anyone except Hermione, poor sod - but Draco's another one you can stick with anyone, although I don't think he and Luna would go well together. Okay, compatibility rant over. When it comes to "other ships" I'm more of an all-rounder with a few select favourites - and then a huge long list of anime&manga ships with Picard/Crusher and Clarisse/Joe stuck on the end.

I think I'm going to have to go and listen to Sway now. I can tell I'll end up getting addicted to it like I did with 'Angel of Mine' (which I have 2 versions of, woo). I find so many brilliant songs via this site and infinite-incantatem.net.

[Aeronnen]

Cho Chang is really weird! In the third and fourth books, she is the ''cute girlfriend of your enemy'' and she never makes fun of Harry and she's really perfect; then in the next book she cries more than it rains in Britain! And it's raining alot at the moment, lol, when it's not freezing.

I never, never thought about Ginny as his girlfriend, but she's alot like Harry's mum, isn't she? She even has red hair!

As for what else I ship....I have a weird affinity for Harry Potter/Susan Bones. Very good ship. She sounds like a proper girl, rather than than a temperamental wuss. (Chang!) And she doesn't cry all over the pace.

[angeldust]

'then in the next book she cries more than it rains in Britain! And it's raining alot at the moment, lol, when it's not freezing. '

So true i keep getting soaked then attacked by that blasted wind! Sorry off topic. Lets see...

I also don't support slash with Min I just can't see her with a woman. I do like Sirius/Remus thats adorable and guiltily I do like the whole forbidden love thing of Tom Riddle / Minerva.

I also like Alastor Moody / Minerva also but only as long as it's unrequainted love or hasn't been acted upon strangely, I'm so picky. Dumbledore can belong to absolutely no-one but Min! Tonks / Remus! and well I guess Hermione/Ron is kind of sweet.

[MinnieQuill]

Well I find myself having to eat my words. I got a reqest to write a MMHG fic, and because I cannot say 'no' very much, I agreed; and for some obscure reason it seems to be working. It's completely bizarre for me to write of course, but a challenge is always fun. lol.
And I'm still going for Minerva/Sirius and Minerva/Remus at the moment. It's the cat and dog thing. lol

[Drake]

I love Remus/Tonks, Luna/Neville, Hermione/Ron, and anything else that's got the yin/yang thing going on.
