Are you a UC (Unconventional) Shipper? :)

I ask this question because i ship several non canon UC couples and i just wondered if anyone else does?

I like UC couples much better than canon pairings. Mainly because it's more fun!! I can imagine the interaction, make up the subtext and have things the way i want. UC couples, unlike canon ones, have no boundaries and can be taken exactly where YOU would like them to go, there are no limits.

OK, so thats why i love UC, now here are the couples i ship.

BtVS/Angel
Fred/Angel
Buffy/Xander
Spike/Willow
Dawn/Connor
Lilah/Lindsey

ER
Luka/Susan
Deb/Carter
Neela/Coop

Friends
Phoebe/Joey
Rachel/Chandler

Harry Potter
Harry/Ginny
Luna/Ron
Hermione/Malfoy

Hehe, you'd almost think i watched a lot of TV!! :grin:

So, your turn now! What UC ships do you avidly support that other people think are a bit out there?

ETA: I changed my name from Charisma_Lover to Little Miss Muffet! Don't want anyone to be confused!

I do think I'm a UC shipper now more than ever because of my frustration with a lot of the plotlines on TV so here are my ships:

Roswell

Michael/Isabel- Used to think they made a weird couple but then slowly grew to love them together.
Liz/Sean- Although I'm a major Max/Liz shipper, I loved these two together too. How weird. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
Kyle/Tess
Kyle/Isabel

Alias

Sydney/Sark- I would definitely say that they're my fav UC couple ever and my second favourite ship. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

LOTR
Aragorn/Eowyn- I think that they have a lot of chemistry together. Too bad the writers changed their minds about putting them together. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

CSI

Grissom/Catherine
Nick/Sara

I put these two couples as UC because everyone seems to be G/S shippers instead. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Mutant X

Brennan/Emma- The CC couple is Brennan/Shalimar but I can't stand Shalimar and plus, I think they're more compatible together. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Can't think of any more as of now. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I love(d) them too,but I never really considered Willow/Xander as a UC couple...

I'd add Syd&Sark from Alias and maybe Krycek/Mulder from The X-Files(even if I'm a die hard M&S shipper...).

I used to be a very conventional shipper. I loved Ross/Rachel on Friends for example, but after all the will-they, won't-they crap, I got sick of it. There should have been some definitive end to it either in London or Vegas, but no, the writers kept dragging it out to the point where it became ridiculous. Likewise, I liked Monica/Chandler for about one season, then grew to hate it with a passion.

These are my unconventional couples that I like on Friends:

Joey/Chandler
Phoebe/David
Phoebe/Ross
Phoebe/Joey
Chandler/Janice
Chandler/Kathy

UC, though I do like some conventional couples.

TV Couples
[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Sark & Sydney (Alias) - They're a very new couple for me, since I've just recently been introduced to the show.
[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Wesley & Faith (Angel) - Ever since Wesley's "I'm five by five" last season, I've wanted them together.
- I used to ship Buffy & Spike in the early seasons, when they were UC as hell. Don't care for the way they turned out though, and I've always been a Buffy & Angel fan.
[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] White & Max (Dark Angel) - Not much to go on, but I always thought if the show had continued it would have been interesting to pair them up. Max & Logan bored me, and Max & Alec were too much alike.
- I used to ship Lex & Lana (Smallville), but all of the guys loving Lana is finally starting to grate on my nerves and I'm losing interest in them as a couple. It would have to be Lana interested in Lex for me to get back into them, and not the other way around.

Movies Couples
[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Wolverine & Rogue (X-Men) - They were the heart of the first movie.
[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Jack & Elizabeth (POTC) - I'd like them more if I didn't like Will, but since I do, the idea of Jack & Elizabeth is just a fun "what if" thing for me.
[img]smilies/star.gif[/img] Draco & Ginny (Harry Potter) - The perfect love/hate relationship.
- I used to be more of an Aragorn & Eowyn (LOTR) fan than I am now. Though I still like them, I ended up liking Faramir in ROTK, which resulted in me liking Faramir & Eowyn. Originally, I thought she was too good for him.

Ah, I miss Chandler/Janice and Chandler/Kathy...I do NOT like Chandler/Monica at ALL. Probably one of the reasons why I'm not as into friends as I used to be. Chandler married is just...weird *Shrugs*

Just my opinion, don't slaughter me please!
