Sam/Jack were meant to be (even alternate universes agree). I still tend to rewatch some of their better episodes, like the one where Jack and Teal'c were stuck in a loop (that smile of his still gets me ) and the one with Grace. Daniel/Vala of course was my complete favorite. And EVERY interaction sold me for them more. Jenny/Giles STILL moves me to tears, I can't watch the last episode with them together. The scene where he finds her is the main reason I hate Angelus so much. Xander/Anya, well they click, despite how different they are and how the other is actually what each of them normally hate (demon and man) they somehow still almost got married. In my eyes Xander went to Africa to mourn and the fact that he chose such a harsh place really tells a lot about his feelings. Quote:

Now Xena/Ares on the other hand get a wholly unsatisfying end because they actually didn't have one. It never made sense that Ares didn't come to keep her alive, but I prefer to imagine that he for some reason couldn't come and later used his document (oh he'd find it if he was motivated enough) that proclaims her soul is his and claim her back. __________________

Definitely. Giles/Jenny were my only OTP for Giles and I feel like he never got over her loss. I like angelus as a villian but I cannot firgive him for Jenny (that being said, I absolutely do not hold Angel accountable for it). Generally I was pleased with Buffy/Spike ending because their feelings were acknowledged and the justice was done and there was still hope for their future taking that Spike didn't actually die. And even if he had, it would have been a beautiful tragic ending. The only issue I have with it is Spike being so insecure about Buffy's feelings. Then again, brilliant Joss couldn't ignore his insecurities and one season was definitely not enough for Spike to get over them completely, especially taking that he had just gotten his soul back and had to carry guilt over all those things he did while being soulles. So in a way it was logican for Spike to doubt Buffy's feelings because even back in End of Days he thought he didn't deserve her and that she didn't return his feelings so he tried to pretend like nothing happened the night in Touched before Buffy stopped him in the doorway and told him how much that night meant to her. Only then he confessed that it was the best night of his life. And he, by his own admission, was "terrified". So I think as much as sad him not believing her was, it was perfectly in character and I like that Joss didn't ignore his insecurities just for the sake of writing a cheesy ending. I read a lot of interpretations of how things could have continued between them after Buffy finds out that Spike is alive and fanfiction really makes my life complete But Xena/Ares ending was so undeserved, they in fact did not even have a proper ending. Not after all they went through would Ares just leave on that note. In my mind they got their chance and spent their immortality together. __________________

Sam/Jack are in fact my OTP of the Stargateverse. And yeah I totally love the fact that even alternate universes have them together. Oh you mean the ep Window of Opportunity? I LOVE that ep. One of my faves. The kiss between S/J .. Daniel/Vala had lots of emotion. And I know at first he wasn't really interested in her, but later on he saw how amazing she could be. He saw that she wasn't just a con-artist, but that she had feelings too.. and he loved her for what she had become. Giles/Jenny could have gone further with their relationship.. if they were even given the chance. I agree, I only ship Giles with Jenny. She's the only one I ship him with. They were so adorable together. She felt bad for not telling him and Buffy about knowing about Angel. But she tried to make up for that by getting his soul back. And it was because of her that saved Angel. I'm sure he looks back at that now and remembers how selfless she was for doing that. Xander/Anya part of me wanted them to really get married. But another part of me says at that moment, they weren't ready to. But I do agree that they did click. And I adore the scene where he proposes to her. Quote:
Find what document? The contract binding her soul to him was destroyed in Soul Possession, remember? Quote:
I'm with you on this.. I also have in my mind that they DID get a happy ending. __________________

You know what all of these have in common, none of them got a happy ending, but all of them could have (should have) under different circumstances. If they weren't in the same team. If they could remember Odyssey (although this one still has a chance, just not on screen). If Angel hadn't lost his soul. If that demon had been killed before he could talk to Xander. Quote:
Well there is still bargaining, I bet there is SOMETHING the Eastern Gods want more than Xena's soul. |

Matthew/Mary
credit I can't get over these two. They are perfect and the Christmas Special makes me so happy. I can't stop smiling. Look how happy they are! "A bride on the brink of happiness." I started rewatchign the special this morning and just everything about these two is perfection. Matthew saving Mary from having to stand with Richard during the hunt and being all protective. Mary wanting to be there for him during his whole thing with Lavinia's father and actually going to the funeral. Gah these two. And as usual: Brody/Carrie Tom/Anya Ray/Neela Matt/Julie Steve/Fiona Michael/Mahone Mark/Maddy Lincoln/Olivia Peter/Olivia These couples give me so many feelings And I just finished watching Off the Map. I'm so bummed that show was cancelled. 13 episodes is not enough. But I loved it so much. The characters were so interesting and I loved all the relationships. So: Off the Map/Life Tommy/Mina Tommy Fuller/Life Mina Minard/Life Ryan Clark/Life Ben/Ryan Tommy/Charlie Cole/Zita __________________

I bet he went on to destroy something after that interruption. And SHE did not go without a cold shower herself . I like how in this scene unlike many Xena was the one doing the seduction instead of Ares. And I also love this moment because he seemed to be so surprised and even a tiny bit unsure at first. |

Oh I love that too.. It was a table turner.. instead of him seducing her, it's the other way around. I liked before that too though.. when she first kissed him and he was thinking it was a trick. But then in this scene she shows him it's not. She had all her armor off except for that fur over her. __________________

^ Me neither. We've been deprived of good DE scenes for the past several weeks. 3x14 was angsty and our scenes were short. 3x13: nothing. 3x12: banter, nothing more. 3x11: that one subtle, but powerful moment. That's it. They need to give us SOMETHING good to go into the hiatus with.
