Sadly, this is the *only* one for which I've written this: Can't think of anything right now…

I've probably put things into stories which have become 'personal head canon' for me, but... ooh, though I did read a Sherlock story just yesterday in which Sherlock is a squib from a Slytherin family, and House Elves have always looked after him. It explains so much!

[letterboys]

15!

[pensnest]

Well, my iTunes gave me 'Lipstick on your collar' as a jive, and I'm going with Chris/Kevin.

[turlough]

#13?

[pensnest]

Online, I love luxshine's chibis enormously, and I will never stop loving the awesome trailer bubbleforest made for 'Show you the shape of my what?'. But I think I have to reserve my utmost veneration for Jean Kluge's utterly beautiful drawings of Data. Take a look.

[turlough]

Those are very nice! (I liked the artist's Babylon 5 drawings too.)

[pensnest]

I just wish I could draw like that. *sigh*

[bettina]

#7 please.

[pensnest]

7. Trickyfish!

I didn't approve of any of the canon candidates for Data's affection in ST:TNG, so had no OTP there. In popslash it was Lance and Chris who won my heart. Not sure that I didn't start off by looking for TrickC more, but that is long forgotten.

[bettina]

Yay, Trickyfish is the best! :D

[pensnest]

Your icon - who?

[bettina]

I don't know, random guys kissing. Genee made it for me. :)

[epicflailer.livejournal.com]

eep, it's hard to pick just one number so i'm cheating and going with:

12 and 25!

[pensnest]

12: A long, real-world Adam/Lance story in which the guys have to work together on a gay rights/advocacy project of some kind. Omnomnom.

25. I'm not, by my own definition, *in* The Avengers fandom, as I don't write and have no intention of writing stories, but I enjoy pretty much any pairing or non-pairing story I find from recs. I don't even think I have a favourite character.

[epicflailer.livejournal.com]

oh man, i might even read that fic. :D

and yay for the avengers! they're all lovely (even if i am particular to clint myself).

#4, please.

[pensnest]

RatBert (or Lambliffe), ie Adam Lambert and Tommy Joe Ratliffe. So many stories available, since practically everyone in today's Adam Lambert fandom seems to be posting them, but I just cannot find Tommy appealing.

Anything with incest. Sorry, but it's just not for me. (Although by incest, I mean brothers - it's always brothers - not cousins, who don't count.)

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

#16 and/or #21, please!

[pensnest]

16. The guys are rival knitwear designers who secretly adore one another's stuff but are not allowed to say so in public. What?

or

Someone's cat is called Magic (short for Magic 8-ball) and can talk and predict the future. It dispenses advice, but only in short, cryptic, cat-larynx-friendly phrases. It's not as helpful as you might think.


21. My babies! How can I choose? Hmph. Well, probably Bouquet, although I have a permanent place in my heart for Fourteen Lines on the subject of the pure and perfect love between man and lava lamp.

[brandywine28.livejournal.com]

Great, now I'm pining for a psychic cat AU. A TALKING psychic cat AU, no less. :)

[pensnest]

Popslashers/Crack = OTP. Always and forever!

Brendon/Spencer (Bandom). I think I followed some recs to D/s stories and somehow got hooked on these two.
