lanalucyPairings: For each of the fandoms from day two, what are your three favorite pairings to write?
Since most of those fandoms were BSG....
Kara/Lee is my OTP. I will never get tired of either reading or writing Kara/Lee.
Kara/Karl is my equivalent of a writing fuzzy blanket. They're friends. They're frakbuddies. They love each other. There's almost never any angst.
Aside from Lee and Helo, I'm not all that picky. I've paired Kara with a LOT of people. lol I do kinda like throwing Sam in there, but only if Lee's a part of it, too. It seems like it would have worked best that way, instead of the way they did it.
I like exploring Kara as Kacey's mom, but that's not exactly a pairing.
As for reading...
BSG
Kara/Lee - Anything. Everything. If I can find it, I will read it. And then I will save it in my GDocs just in case AO3 ever topples.
Kara/Karl - All of it. There's very little Kara/Helo on AO3 which I didn't write, and I think I've pretty much read all of it, at least twice. When I need feelgood fic, Kara/Karl is my GoTo.
Kara/Sam - I'll read it now. I wouldn't at first, so my verse has shifted a bit. It's still not my favorite, but there are some writers out there who get the Kara/Sam dynamic in a way I can appreciate.
BSG RPF
Jamie/Katee - This was the pairing which convinced me RPF was okay. I could not get enough of it, and I'll still devour it if I find it. Pretty sure I haven't found something new in that pairing in well over a year, though. And the more a fan of Katee I become, the hinkier I feel liking RPF about her.
Longmire
Walt/Vic - The books make me like the show better, and the show makes me likes the books better, and I wouldn't have watched or read either if Katee hadn't been in it. There's an interesting dynamic at work here. Walt admires Vic professionally, pines over her even as he's mourning his dead wife, and mentors her with high hopes of her succeeding him as Sheriff. Vic is smart and sassy and clearly has a thing for Walt, but she doesn't push it. She's waiting for him to make the move, but she supports him in any number of ways, and shoves against his comfort zone in every way that doesn't involve a romantic relationship between the two of them.
Walt/Vic/Henry Standing Bear - The three of them together in a ship works in a way it seems like they shouldn't. I haven't read any threesome smut, and thinking about that makes me squint, but the rest of their relationship seems to groove along a lot easier with Henry in the middle. He gets things about other people, particularly Walt, in a quiet, unobtrusive way I really dig.
As for the rest, I'll read just about anything if it's recced to me and not incest. I'll read just about anything my friends write. I read across a huge swath of fandoms, many for shows or games or movies I've never seen.
