From mizzmarvel:

Name a fandom (or subfandom) and I'll tell you 3 pairings I love, 2 pairings I consider shipping, and 1 pairing I hate.

Flash comic (or DCU, if Flash is too small by itself)

[caiusmajor.livejournal.com]

Flash I can do!

Pairings I love:

1. Jay/Joan (the canon OTP of the entire DCU)
2. Barry/Iris (I love them, but not as much as Jay/Joan, and sometimes they make me headdesk. Seriously, Barry, A YEAR?)
3. Hal/Barry (Kind of hard to actually arrange, given 2, but I ship it anyway. Even if just platonically.)

Pairings I consider:

1. Barry/Zatanna (they were only together for a few JLA issues, but it was cute and less unfortunate than Barry/Fiona)
2. Captain Cold/Heat Wave (falls vaguely into the catagory of "it would need more canon/thought/fic for me to actually ship it")

Pairing I hate:

1. Digger Harkness/Meloni Thawne (I am not good at hating pairings, but just...WTF? Also I resent Digger being killed off and replaced by a younger, prettier model.)

[neotoma.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Meloni/Digger is kind of WTF, but I rather like the thought that maybe Digger was happy once, even if he had to be time-lost and amnesiac to manage that. Also, Bart and Owen being half-brothers would be good for drama, if some writer ever DOES anything with it.

I guess? I don't know. The prospect of Digger being amnesiac and hooking up with Meloni seems just...un-Digger-like.

It's not a pairing I hate very hard; there weren't many of those that came to mind.

Why not the entire DCU?

GA/GL characters. :)

Love:

1. Hal/Ollie (Obviously!)
2. Carol/Hal (I am totally invoking anime pairing order for this. :D)
3. Ch'p/Salakk (SO CUTE OMG.)

Consider:

1. Guy/Kyle -- they're really cute as friends, and I've enjoyed fic with them, but I have trouble wrapping my mind around them as a romance.
2. Hal/ANYONE EVER -- you name it, I'll consider it.

Hate:

1. Sodam Yat/Arisia -- I have a deep, abiding hatred for Sodam Yat. SUCH A STU. And getting Arisia as one of his Stu-perquisites did not help.

(...there aren't a lot of Arrows on the list. Mostly because there are so many fewer of them to begin with.)

[harmonyangel.livejournal.com]

I do not know who Sodam Yat is, but I trust you that he is a Stu! The rest do not surprise me, and hee to the anime pairing order. :)

[caiusmajor.livejournal.com]

Heh, I'm less eloquent on the subject of Sodam Yat than I was once, but basically he's a Green Lantern who's also a Daxamite. Which means he has Superman powers too! And just because he didn't have enough special, he got the Giant Green Space Whale and became Ion! And he has a tragic backstory! And Arisia! And generally hogged panel space in Green Lantern Corps that could have been devoted to people I wanted to read about.

(Recently, apparently, he had a Very Tragic and Stuish Death. I would say, At least he's gone, except with Blackest Night, I don't think that that's what it means. *sighs*)

Marvel!

[caiusmajor.livejournal.com]

Love:

1. Cap/Falc (OTP 4 EVAH! *draws little hearts*)
2. Namor/Jim (Obviously!)
3. Nick Fury/Dum Dum Dugan

Consider:

1. Hercules/Amadeus Cho - I don't really want to go there, but canon seems to want me to want to go there, except when it doesn't. Someday I think I will try to write it.
2. Sam Wilson/Sharon Carter - probably more than consider, since I wrote it, but it's too doomed for me to really love it.

Hate:

1. Steve/Tony - not so much hate as have an allergy to, at least since of mid-2007. I blame both canon and fandom for this.
