All My Children:
Other Ships I like (for background): Tad/Dixie, Edmund/Maria, Maria/Zach, Zach/Annie, any combo of characters that doesn't split up my preferred ships
Friendships/Gen: Bianca & Kendall, Bianca & Erica, Bianca & Jackson, Kendall & Erica, Kendall & JR, Ryan & Greenlee
Aidan/Greenlee: I never expected to like them as much as I did, but they really worked together. I liked he was there for her in her lowest moments and she was really good to/with him. Aidan was one of my faves so I was disappointed to see him be made a villain so I would like to pretend that his downward spiral didn't happen.
Prompts:
1. AU where he is still a detective but she is a client
2. they accidentally get married after they run into each other at the bar and then figure how to work things out
3. shippy fics, where they are be domestic and adopt kids or use a surrogate
Bianca/Maggie: I just loved them a lot- how they were friends, how she was so close to Miranda, and I wished we got to seem as an actual couple, before they left and then all of a sudden broke up over Maggie cheating (which felt kind OOC).
Prompts:
1. Bianca and Maggie in Paris, with Miranda
2. Maggie never dates Jonathan and she and Bianca realize their feelings sooner
3. Maggie doesn't cheat (or she does and she and Bianca work it out - maybe Bianca gives her another shot when she comes to win her back)
Erica/Jackson: I loved them. Their personalities were so different yet they worked so well. It was so frustrating to see them get close to their happy ending time and time again yet something just drove them apart (I know, that would be soap opera shenanigans) and I wish they could've at least ended up together.
Prompts:
1. One of the times they get married works out
2. they get together sooner - maybe Bianca grows up with Jackson as her official stepfather
3. shippy moments - first dates, a less dramatic honeymoon (well outside of Erica being herself lol), etc
Kendall/Greenlee: Them going from hating each other to being willing to raise a baby together was lovely. They had their ups and downs, but the best moments were always when they were on the same side. I thought it was funny that Erica actually believed they were together. They would've made awesome couple.
Prompts:
1. Ryan never returns and they do end up raising the baby together/developing feelings
2. at some point they both swear off relationships but end up in a friends with benefits relationship after a drunken one night stand and develop feelings
3. they have to pretend to date
Kendall/Ryan: They were one of my OTPs on this show and I was really heartbroken when they couldn't work out. They had such intense passion and chemistry and I wish she would've been more open and he could've been able to trust her more. The amnesia storyline where he thought they were still together was one of my favorites. Not a huge fan of Ryan/Greenlee so please don't focus on the Kendall/Ryan/Greenlee triangle either.
Prompts:
1. Kendall leaves town after Ryan and Greenlee have their business marriage and then realizes she is pregnant (bonus points for her running into Leo, who is still alive and bringing him back)
2. during Ryan's amnesia; Kendall calls Jonathan to help and ends up getting closer with Ryan even when she tries to stay away
3. she doesn't sleep with Jonathan and she gives Ryan another chance
Leo/Greenlee: He (and Aidan) were her best relationships. I know they had their ups and downs but it was unfortunate that they always got to the hope of happiness to have him die. I stopped watching the the show and missed the final seasons but it really seemed to think he was the love of her life till the end.
Prompts:
1. He faked his death and she runs into him when she leaves after finding out that Kendall lied about the baby
2. He never dies in the first place and they balance their lives together
Chronicles of Narnia:
Caspian/Peter: I really fell for these two when I saw the Prince Caspian. I'm a sucker for the dynamic which involves two people who bicker but are on the same side. I liked Caspian's perception vs the reality and the angst of Peter having to leave all the Narnians behind. I definitely wish we could've seen more of those two.
Prompts:
1. Peter ends up staying in Narnia
2. Caspian needs a spouse and Peter ends up going along with it
3. Caspian goes to London to get Peter back
Crossover Fandom:
Diana/Natasha: Diana and Natasha also have potential! I can see them being interested in one another. They've both experienced loss and pain but they still fight for the better of the world and are the backbones of their respective teams.
Prompts:
1. AU where Natasha has a version of the serum and she meets Diana earlier/they have a one night stand and part, only to run into each other decades later
2. meeting while they're both undercover for separate missions
3. The Justice League & the Avengers exist in the same timeline/have to work together and they meet that way
Diana/Peggy: Obviously they've both experienced the loss of their blond haired Steve to plane accidents but I think they're both tough women who are compassionate and have enough differences to make a fun ship. They're both a little jaded but still have a lot of hope/always want to do what's right, and I can see them drawn to one another.
Prompts:
1. Diana runs into Peggy after WWII
2. Peggy finds herself in Themyscira
3. meet while searching for a common enemy
Diana/Jim Kirk: I'm not going to pretend that the fact I ship Kirk being played by Chris Pine and I ship Diana/Steve does play a part, but I think that specific angst makes it more interesting. Kirk and Steve are very different and I imagine it would be jarring to see someone with Steve's face but nothing like Steve for Diana. I love both characters a lot and I can see Kirk flirting with Diana, getting the brush off, but somehow, being even more intrigued. Diana would probably initially want to keep her distance from this Steve doppleganger but it would be interesting if she couldn't stay away and liked Kirk for his own merits.
Prompts:
1. The crew of the Enterprise (or even just Kirk) end up on Themyscira
2. Diana is brought in as a specialist to help with a mission
3. they meet when Kirk is on shore leave
4. Kirk is rescued by Wonder Woman
Jess/Peyton: For some reason, I'm really fascinated with the idea of these two. They're both interested in music and while Peyton isn't as big a reader as Jess is, I think they would get along, after maybe initially being snarky and clashing if they met when they're teenagers.
Prompts:
1. Jess ends up in Tree Hill instead of Stars Hollow
2. they meet up in California when Jess is with his father and after Peyton has just broken up with Lucas
Rory/Lucas: I thought they had chemistry when CMM played Tristan but I think character wise, Lucas would be much more fitting for Rory. Even though Lucas plays basketball, they both love to read and love music and are a bit more on the reserved/introverted side.
Prompts:
1. Their high schools play each other and Rory runs into Lucas after the game
2. She interviews him when he's promoting one of his novels
Rory/Peyton: Rory is a bit like Haley, more studious and introverted yet willing to stand up for herself and her passion is books rather than music, so I can see Peyton having a similar reaction. Both Rory and Peyton grew up with single parents and have slight abandonment issues that I see play out in different ways. I can see them connecting slowly and then eventually falling for each other.
Prompts:
1. Lane and her band sign with Peyton's music label and they meet through her
2. Rory interviews Peyton
Other OTH ships I like (for background): Nathan/Haley, Brooke/Lindsey, Brooke/Lucas, Brooke/Rachel, Brooke/Peyton, Lucas/Lindsey, Peyton/Jake, Karen/Keith
Other GG ships I like: Emily/Richard, Luke/Lorelai, Lane/Dave, Rory/Paris, Paris/Doyle, Paris/Jamie (and I'm okay with Lane/Zach)
DCU (Comics):
Other Ships I like (for background): Clark/Lois, Bruce/Selina, Diana/Steve, Guy/Tora
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the Justice League or the Lanterns
Carol/Hal: I first saw them in the GL movie, which I know wasn't great to say the least, but I liked their relationship in the comics too, even if it was inconsistent and up and down. When they were good, I thought they were really good. I liked their connection and history and how they can't stay away from one another. The future where they were happy with their grandchild was adorable!
Prompts:
1. post one of their break-ups; The Green Lanterns and Star Sapphires have to work together (reluctantly)
2. Hal proposes but Carol doesn't think he's really serious this time
3. one of them gets sick/hurt and the other takes care of them
Carol/Kyle: This was my crackship when I rp'd as Carol and I was pleasantly surprised to see it become canon. I like that they go on this adventure together and they get closer and slowly come together. It was very sweet. I know Hal came off as a jerk when he found out about them and in general during the arc, but I would rather there not be any bashing of him anyway.
Prompts:
1. set up by mutual friends
2. different first meeting AU
3. artist!Kyle + Carol as his muse
Carol/Hal/Kyle: Why have a triangle when it can be solved by a threesome?
Prompts:
1. Hal is pining for both Carol and Kyle, who he thinks are happier together. They prove him wrong.
2. Trapped in a close space and they have to talk/work out their feelings
3. Kyle stays with established Carol/Hal while his place his being renovated
4. All three are pining for each other while convinced the others have feelings for one person that is not them
Guy/Kyle: I liked their friendship and bond. They're both great characters and I like them both. Kyle is kind and sensitive and Guy can be tough on the outside but really is loyal, protective, and has a soft side too.
Prompts:
1. going undercover as a couple
2. no powers AU where Kyle is an artist and Guy is a teacher
3. dates/down time between missions/running their bar
Soranik/Iolande: Love how these two with their different backgrounds and approaches came to become partners and then friends.
Prompts:
1. Iolande needs to be in a relationship to avoid being set up on dates; Soranik reluctantly agrees
2. Arranged Marriage AU- they are set up for political reasons and first dislike each other and then slowly fall in love
3. casual sex turns into real feelings
4. one of them is hurt/kidnapped and the other goes all out to save them
DCEU:
Other Ships I like: Barry/Iris, Bruce/Selina (I know she isn't in the DCEU - feel free to use your preferred version), Diana/Steve
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the Justice League, Clark & Martha, LoiS & Martha, Lois & Diana
Arthur/Mera: I really liked the Aquaman movie and I thought they were great together. I liked the sporadic interactions we saw from them before that movie, and how their relationship grew from two people who had to work together and how they slowly fell in love.
Prompts:
1. AU where Atlanna was allowed to stay with her family but in exchange, Arthur is expected to wed Mera. They both hate it ... at first
2. Mera is defiant and is engaged to Arthur as punishment
3. post- Aquaman movie; how they deal with Arthur now officially being King while managing his responsibilities on land and all the shenanigans that come with pressure for the two of them to get married
Clark/Lois: They're great together. I love how mature and loving their relationship is. Lois figuring out Clark and his identity and Clark appreciating Lois for believing in him even in MoS was lovely. I didn't see BvS but the scene where Clark tells Lois that she is his world gets to me. I'm so glad that they seem to be not only engaged but have a baby on the way in ZSJL.
Prompts:
1. post ZSJL; preparing for a wedding and a kid! Could definitely be some hijinks there, especially since Lois is definitely going to continue working for a while and will be doing some deep dives on stories
2. anything set in between MoS and BvS; how their relationship comes together. Do they keep it a secret at work? Maybe they have to go undercover for a story even
3. role reversal: Earth is destroyed instead of Krypton and Lois is the last human who ends up there. What family she gets adopted into, the life she leads and how she meets Kal-El.
K3G:
Rahul/Anjali: These two always have the best chemistry and they're just so much fun, before they get together and as a married couple. I love how smitten he was with her immediately and how she was slowly won over and the way that even as they playfully bickered in the second half, you can see how loving their relationship was, despite Rahul's grumpy moments.
Prompts:
1. moments between them leaving his house (after they just got married and he got kicked out) and settling in London
2. the readjustment back to India
3. married moments - anniversaries, holidays, etc
Rohan/Pooja: These two were a lot of fun in the movie. I liked when they were kids and their friendship to their push/pull relationship as adults. Rohan able to go to Pooja and willingness to help really revealed the depth and connection they both had.
Prompts:
1. AU where they secretly kept in touch when Rohan left for boarding school
2. married life
3. shippy moments at any point of the second half of the movie or after
MCU:
Fandom DNW: Steve/Steve's Endgame ending bashing (feel free to ignore), rehash of CW debate with bias toward one side (I'm Team Cap but I don't want it go over it again), Bucky only having flirted with Sarah to make Sam jealous, focus on Zemo, past/present/unrequited Steve/Bucky or Steve/Sam
Other Ships I like (for background): Bucky/Sam, Bucky/Natasha, Bucky/Darcy, Bruce/Betty, Clint/Laura, Clint/Coulson, Natasha/Maria, Natasha/Sharon, Natasha/Rhodey, Natasha/T'Challa, Natasha/Pepper, Rhodey/Carol, Rhodey/Nebula, Rhodey/Sam, Sam/Maria, Steve/Peggy, Steve/Tony, T'Challa/Nakia, Thor/Jane, Tony/Pepper
Friendships/Gen: any of the above, Steve & Bucky, Steve & Sam, Steve & Natasha, Tony & Nebula, Tony & Rhodey, any combo of the Avengers
Bucky/Natasha/Sam: I just think these three would be fun. I love all the individual ships and I think they could work well together, their personalities seeming to really mesh. Natasha would be amused by Sam and Bucky's playful bickering and her sense of humor fits in with theirs too.
Prompts:
1. Natasha survives Endgame and gets closer to both Bucky and Sam
2. they all go undercover together - maybe two of them are pretending to be a couple and they all have mixed feelings over it
3. Natasha and Sam look for Bucky together post TWS
Bucky/Rhodey/Sam: I read a fic about these three and I was sold. It's such an interesting dynamic. Rhodey and Sam's canon friendship is great and I love Sam & Bucky. Rhodey and Bucky would be an interesting duo too. All three of them have the military connection in some form and they've been through their own personal struggles and they could really find a connection with each other. I'm good with it either being set before, during, or after TFATWS.
Prompts:
1. Rhodey sticks around in TFATWS and he somehow ends up spending more time with Sam and/or Bucky. Maybe an undercover mission where two of them have to be faking a relationship and they all pine
2. Rhodey runs into Sam while he's searching for Bucky and helps him out; they all end up connecting
3. soulmate AU where they each have two marks
Erik/Sam: I read a fic about these two once and I was just sold on the pairing. They took very different paths but Sam is very compassionate and Erik does have some good ideas, even if he is shown to go about it wrong. Going by TFATWS, Sam knows what it is like to struggle with his identity and I think had Erik lived, they would clash but they could also find some common ground.
Prompts:
1. Erik lives and Sam meets him while he is on the run, in Wakanda
2. pre-canon they meet while they are both in the army or in college
3. AU where Erik grows up in Wakanda
Natasha/Sam: I really liked these two during TWS. I thought they had good chemistry and I feel like their personalities mesh. They both have a sense of humor, have strong values and are very loyal and brave. It is one of the couples I really could've seen working in canon. Sam's one of my favorites- he's kind but no nonsense and has the attitude that Natasha would appreciate.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU where Natasha's mark was either damaged or removed in her past
2. Bodyguard AU where Sam's the new Captain America and they assign Natasha to protect him after he gains a stalker
3. undercover mission where they have to pretend to be together/married
Peggy/Natasha: I just like the idea of this ship. I can see them getting along- both are strong, passionate and tough and Peggy is a little more impulsive but that is what would make it fun. I said 'MCU' but feel free to go with Peggy's episode of "What If" and run with the Captain Carter route.
Prompts:
1. Natasha time travels or has the serum and meets Peggy in the past
2. Captain Carter and Natasha in the present
3. modern AU- they're rival spies
Sif/Thor: I like their friendship and how they connect, but I also shipped it. I enjoyed the way Sif stands up for herself and Thor has always believed in her and how they save each other. I haven't seen the last two Thor movies but I vaguely know what happened so I'm fine with either being referenced.
Prompts:
1. they reconnect while building a new home for the Asgardians
2. arranged marriage AU - they're both resentful of it but learn to get along and fall in love
3. any point where Thor realizes his feelings - maybe post TDW - but Sif doesn't take him seriously at first
T'Challa/Sam: These are two of my favorite characters and Sam's whole "you like cats" in CACW amused me far more than it should. Obviously they have different backgrounds but they are good people with kind hearts who want to do the right thing and their differences make them all that more intersting. I can see Sam and Shuri teaming up to tease T'Challa and T'Challa charming Sarah despite Sam pouting about it.
Prompts:
1. they connect while Sam is on the run, in Wakanda
2. they meet up again after the 5 year snap
3. AU where T'Challa goes to America to study and then hides his identity and meets Sam
MMPR:
Other Ships I like: Jason/Trini, Jason/Kat, Trini/Billy, Rocky/Adam, Rocky/Adam/Aisha. If it isn't listed here and doesn't involve separating Kim/Tommy, it should be fine.
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the Power Rangers
Kimberly/Tommy: This was my 'shipped before I knew what shipping was' ship. The original OTP. I just loved Kim as a kid - she's just so compassionate and caring but can also kick butt and is really there for the ones she cares about and Tommy felt like such a dashing knight in shining armor, yet with his own insecurities. I thought they were really sweet together. I would love anything from the show to the '95 movie (which I used to rewatch all the time as a kid) to set post breakup. As long as there isn't really any overly dramatic reason for the breakup or involve bashing of the other characters (ex: Kat sent the letter).
Prompts:
1. They never break up and continue to have a long distance relationship
2. they meet up again as adults
3. trying to date while fighting crime and going to school
Smallville:
Fandom DNW: Arrowverse characters/fanon ships, 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' (specifically Clark permanently giving up his powers), focus on Chloe (I had issues with her character starting in s8 but with what the actress has done, I don't really want to read about her in a main role)
Other Ships I like: Martha/Jonathan, Clark/Lois, Lois/Kara, Kara/Jimmy, Kara/Lana, Kara/Chloe, Oliver/Dinah, Oliver/Chloe, Chloe/Victor, Chloe/George Dean (guy she was with in Apocalypse AU), Chloe/Lana, Chloe/Bart, Bart/Mia, AC/Mera, Lex/Lana (as long as he doesn't go evil), Lana/Jason (again, as long as he doesn't go evil), Tess/Emil
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the SV Justice League, Clark & Martha & Jonathan, Clark & Kara, Clark & Lana, Clark & Lois, Clark & Oliver, Clark & Lex, Clark & Tess, Lois & Lana, Lois & Oliver, Lois & Martha, Oliver & Mia, Oliver & Tess
Clark/Lois/Oliver: My OT3. While I love the individual ships in it, I also love the dynamic they have as a trio. We didn't get to see as many scenes with just them as I would've liked but the ones were got were really great. They really balance one another out. Each of them has something in common with one of the others (Clark with Ollie, Clark with Lois, Lois with Ollie) but they're different enough to really make it interesting. I'm good with the three of them getting together at the same time or two of them already being together and including the third.
Prompts:
1. Lois and Oliver get back together in s7 and Oliver notices how close Clark and Lois are getting. Maybe even he kissed Clark while they were undercover (and he told Lois about it). Then he comes up with a plan (once he checks with Lois, of course)
2. after Oliver's revelation that he is Green Arrow, he has to stay on the down low, and ends up hanging out with Lois & Clark more often. Feelings develop from there
3. 'Crimson' AU; Oliver is there when Clark and Lois break into his apartment and they seduce him
4. Luthor AU - they do catch Clark Luthor and decide to keep an eye on him - somehow he turns into exactly what they need and he falls for them/redeems himself too
Clark/Oliver: Another OTP. I didn't expect to fall for them as hard as I did in s6 but I just loved their dynamic. The push and pull and the way they had this ultimate respect for one another was great but then it grew in s8-10. It was tough watching them fight but I did like how they always came back together, and even when they didn't agree, they cared about each other with Clark always believing Oliver was better and Oliver reminding Clark that the Kandorians weren't the only family that he had. One of my favorite moments was when Clark said that he hadn't quit on Oliver Queen in "Echo". One thing I do ask if that if you choose to set it in the later seasons that Lois doesn't get hurt. I am fine with handwaving the Clois romance rather than her having unrequited feelings or them breaking up because I adore her/don't want to see her hurt and I love Clois.
Prompts:
1. Clark takes up Oliver's offer in "Justice" and goes with the team on their adventures and they get closer in the meantime
2. Superman's citizenship comes into question, even with his home in the Arctic so he publicly marries Green Arrow
3. Clark runs into Oliver on his red k summer, Oliver ends up inviting him on his trip on his yacht and then they end up on the island together
Lois/Oliver: Despite their great first scene (I love how Lois made Oliver speechless), I was really skeptical about them at first but they really won me over, with their great chemistry. They both are different but also similar in a way that you can imagine them working out in a different world and I even love their strong friendship in the final seasons.
Prompts:
1. Lois finds out she is pregnant after Oliver leaves in s6
2. she gives him a second chance in 'Siren' and how they deal with a long distance relationship
3. Lois has to work with Oliver/Green Arrow for a story (or maybe she interviews him - either identity)
Lois/Lana: They had their own little meet cute at the graveyard. I liked how they were friends right away and how Lois took to Lana immediately. They clearly get along very well and they had some good chemistry to which I can see them being a couple. Lois respects Lana and has listed her virtues to even Clark and Lana called Lois a good listener. I haven't read the s11 comics but it seems they had some good scenes there and Lana even gave Lois (and Clark) her blessing. On that note, please don't make Clark the villain or have them hook up because one or both are pining over him.
Prompts:
1. Lois stays in Metropolis University and then she needs a roommate and it ends up being Lana
2. Lana meets Lois in Paris instead of Jason
3. Lana visits Lois in college with Chloe and then hits it off with Lois
Lois/Tess: I fell for these two immediately after their first scene in "Odyssey". I have to admit I had my doubts on Tess because she seemed like too much of a Lex replacement but I was won over right away and I shipped these two a lot. They had such chemistry right off the bat and it never faded. I loved them when they were at each other's throats and also loved how they became friends/trusted each other in s10. They're both strong willed, determined and they want to do what it is right- Lois is a little more brash while Tess is more calculated but at the end of the day, they ended up on the same side. I like fic set during any of those time periods, preferably AUs where Clois never got together if it is in the later seasons.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU, where they have each other's initials. I imagine that with all the people with LL, it might get confusing, and Lois would not even know Tess's name is Lutessa so maybe she doesn't even think it could be her
2. Lois meets Tess before she ends up on the island
3. The Proposal (2009 movie) AU
Lana/Tess: They may not have had many scenes together but what they did have sold me on the chemistry and potential. Both of them are complicated and want to do what is right/be the hero (Tess has obviously had more stumbles than Lana) and they were each manipulated by Lex at some point. I think they would get along if they spent time in later seasons together.
Prompts:
1. one night stand turns into FWB
2. have to go undercover as a couple
3. different first meeting- Tess shows up to Smallville when Lex is still alive and meets Lana
Ted Lasso:
Fandom DNW: Sam/Rebecca - either there or Rebecca using Sam as a substitute for Ted, Nate bashing/comeuppance - I'm fine with him realizing where he went wrong but I don't want it to be about all the other characters lecturing him
Other Ships I like (for background): The Higgins, Sam/Dani, Ted/Rebecca
Friendships/Gen: any combo of AFC Richmond players, Ted & Beard, Ted & Roy, Ted & Jamie, Roy Beard, Roy & Jamie, Rebecca & Higgins, Rebecca & Keeley
Keeley/Roy: I just loved their relationship on the show. How they came together, and how they communicate and make it over their hurdles and how *into* each other they were. Also so supportive and reassuring. Really adorable. I was very sad about their breakup in s3 but the open ending gives me hope, since they are clearly still in each other's lives and can find their way back to one another. I'm fine with fics set at any point or AUs where they didn't break up at all.
Prompts:
1. Keeley ends up winning Roy in the auction
2. Roy finds a time/way to propose and now they have to plan the wedding
3. pre-canon to early canon where Keeley dates football players and Roy is secretly pining
Keeley/Roy/Jamie: I like the potential of these three. Roy and Jamie have come so far, Roy and Keeley are adorable, and of course Keeley and Jamie's friendship is great too. Especially in the second half of season 2. The scene where Keeley and Roy get mad about that foul Jamie took in the s2 finale? So in sync. S3 showed that Keeley and Jamie still have a romantic connection too and I like that they're all in each other's spaces in the finale.
Prompts:
1. post finale where they're some misunderstanding and Roy ends up going on a date with a guy who looks like Jamie, which pushes them to take the next step (and Jamie is less than impressed when Keeley points out the resemblance)
2. Roy gets amnesia and becomes more like he was in his early twenties; Keeley and Jamie find it hot
3. Roy goes on vacation and with Keeley's insistence, Jamie ends up tagging along. They end up developing feelings and then Keeley joins in
Sam/Dani/Jamie: I like all the individual relationships here. Dani and Sam are just sunshine characters and I love how Dani was comfortable enough to jump into Sam's arms almost right after they met. Sam and Jamie's growth really gets to me, and I love how supportive Jamie is of Dani toward the end of s2. They were an unexpected duo that I love, especially considering how much Jamie was jealous of/didn't like Dani early on. Now Sam and Dani are two of Jamie's closest friends!
Prompts:
1. Jamie finds out Sam and Dani are together; he tries to be supportive but is also jealous
2. two of them are together and decide to woo the third
3. the three of them have a one night stand after drinking too much/celebrating
Sam/Jamie: The casual way Jamie drapes himself over Sam and how far they've come really has sold me on the potential of this ship. The contrast between their relationship with their fathers is also intriguing. I like how that since Jamie hurt Sam worse than others, he had to work harder to win back his trust and forgiveness and now Sam is arguably one of his closest friends. He wore his number! Adorable! :D
Prompts:
1. for some reason, it gets around that Sam and Jamie are together and when Jamie's dad calls him, he doubles down and ends up revealing they're engaged when they're not even together. Sam goes along with it
2. Jamie finds out about Sam and Rebecca and offers to cover for them by letting Sam tell people he is hanging out with Jamie so no one suspects. All while pining (I know I have a Sam/Rebecca DNW but I'm fine with it in a background space as long as Rebecca isn't bashed on the way to get to Sam/Jamie)
3. friends with benefits turns into real feelings
Thanks again! :D
Thank you for signing up for this challenge! I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with and I hope the information provided helps. I tried to include a few prompts for each ship, but you're not obligated to us them at all. If you have any further questions, I welcome answering them. :)

All My Children:
Other Ships I like (for background): Tad/Dixie, Edmund/Maria, Maria/Zach, Zach/Annie, any combo of characters that doesn't split up my preferred ships
Friendships/Gen: Bianca & Kendall, Bianca & Erica, Bianca & Jackson, Kendall & Erica, Kendall & JR, Ryan & Greenlee
Aidan/Greenlee: I never expected to like them as much as I did, but they really worked together. I liked he was there for her in her lowest moments and she was really good to/with him. Aidan was one of my faves so I was disappointed to see him be made a villain so I would like to pretend that his downward spiral didn't happen.
Prompts:
1. AU where he is still a detective but she is a client
2. they accidentally get married after they run into each other at the bar and then figure how to work things out
3. shippy fics, where they are be domestic and adopt kids or use a surrogate
Bianca/Maggie: I just loved them a lot- how they were friends, how she was so close to Miranda, and I wished we got to seem as an actual couple, before they left and then all of a sudden broke up over Maggie cheating (which felt kind OOC).
Prompts:
1. Bianca and Maggie in Paris, with Miranda
2. Maggie never dates Jonathan and she and Bianca realize their feelings sooner
3. Maggie doesn't cheat (or she does and she and Bianca work it out - maybe Bianca gives her another shot when she comes to win her back)
Erica/Jackson: I loved them. Their personalities were so different yet they worked so well. It was so frustrating to see them get close to their happy ending time and time again yet something just drove them apart (I know, that would be soap opera shenanigans) and I wish they could've at least ended up together.
Prompts:
1. One of the times they get married works out
2. they get together sooner - maybe Bianca grows up with Jackson as her official stepfather
3. shippy moments - first dates, a less dramatic honeymoon (well outside of Erica being herself lol), etc
Kendall/Greenlee: Them going from hating each other to being willing to raise a baby together was lovely. They had their ups and downs, but the best moments were always when they were on the same side. I thought it was funny that Erica actually believed they were together. They would've made awesome couple.
Prompts:
1. Ryan never returns and they do end up raising the baby together/developing feelings
2. at some point they both swear off relationships but end up in a friends with benefits relationship after a drunken one night stand and develop feelings
3. they have to pretend to date
Kendall/Ryan: They were one of my OTPs on this show and I was really heartbroken when they couldn't work out. They had such intense passion and chemistry and I wish she would've been more open and he could've been able to trust her more. The amnesia storyline where he thought they were still together was one of my favorites. Not a huge fan of Ryan/Greenlee so please don't focus on the Kendall/Ryan/Greenlee triangle either.
Prompts:
1. Kendall leaves town after Ryan and Greenlee have their business marriage and then realizes she is pregnant (bonus points for her running into Leo, who is still alive and bringing him back)
2. during Ryan's amnesia; Kendall calls Jonathan to help and ends up getting closer with Ryan even when she tries to stay away
3. she doesn't sleep with Jonathan and she gives Ryan another chance
Leo/Greenlee: He (and Aidan) were her best relationships. I know they had their ups and downs but it was unfortunate that they always got to the hope of happiness to have him die. I stopped watching the the show and missed the final seasons but it really seemed to think he was the love of her life till the end.
Prompts:
1. He faked his death and she runs into him when she leaves after finding out that Kendall lied about the baby
2. He never dies in the first place and they balance their lives together
Chronicles of Narnia:
Caspian/Peter: I really fell for these two when I saw the Prince Caspian. I'm a sucker for the dynamic which involves two people who bicker but are on the same side. I liked Caspian's perception vs the reality and the angst of Peter having to leave all the Narnians behind. I definitely wish we could've seen more of those two.
Prompts:
1. Peter ends up staying in Narnia
2. Caspian needs a spouse and Peter ends up going along with it
3. Caspian goes to London to get Peter back
Crossover Fandom:
Diana/Natasha: Diana and Natasha also have potential! I can see them being interested in one another. They've both experienced loss and pain but they still fight for the better of the world and are the backbones of their respective teams.
Prompts:
1. AU where Natasha has a version of the serum and she meets Diana earlier/they have a one night stand and part, only to run into each other decades later
2. meeting while they're both undercover for separate missions
3. The Justice League & the Avengers exist in the same timeline/have to work together and they meet that way
Diana/Peggy: Obviously they've both experienced the loss of their blond haired Steve to plane accidents but I think they're both tough women who are compassionate and have enough differences to make a fun ship. They're both a little jaded but still have a lot of hope/always want to do what's right, and I can see them drawn to one another.
Prompts:
1. Diana runs into Peggy after WWII
2. Peggy finds herself in Themyscira
3. meet while searching for a common enemy
Diana/Jim Kirk: I'm not going to pretend that the fact I ship Kirk being played by Chris Pine and I ship Diana/Steve does play a part, but I think that specific angst makes it more interesting. Kirk and Steve are very different and I imagine it would be jarring to see someone with Steve's face but nothing like Steve for Diana. I love both characters a lot and I can see Kirk flirting with Diana, getting the brush off, but somehow, being even more intrigued. Diana would probably initially want to keep her distance from this Steve doppleganger but it would be interesting if she couldn't stay away and liked Kirk for his own merits.
Prompts:
1. The crew of the Enterprise (or even just Kirk) end up on Themyscira
2. Diana is brought in as a specialist to help with a mission
3. they meet when Kirk is on shore leave
4. Kirk is rescued by Wonder Woman
Jess/Peyton: For some reason, I'm really fascinated with the idea of these two. They're both interested in music and while Peyton isn't as big a reader as Jess is, I think they would get along, after maybe initially being snarky and clashing if they met when they're teenagers.
Prompts:
1. Jess ends up in Tree Hill instead of Stars Hollow
2. they meet up in California when Jess is with his father and after Peyton has just broken up with Lucas
Rory/Lucas: I thought they had chemistry when CMM played Tristan but I think character wise, Lucas would be much more fitting for Rory. Even though Lucas plays basketball, they both love to read and love music and are a bit more on the reserved/introverted side.
Prompts:
1. Their high schools play each other and Rory runs into Lucas after the game
2. She interviews him when he's promoting one of his novels
Rory/Peyton: Rory is a bit like Haley, more studious and introverted yet willing to stand up for herself and her passion is books rather than music, so I can see Peyton having a similar reaction. Both Rory and Peyton grew up with single parents and have slight abandonment issues that I see play out in different ways. I can see them connecting slowly and then eventually falling for each other.
Prompts:
1. Lane and her band sign with Peyton's music label and they meet through her
2. Rory interviews Peyton
Other OTH ships I like (for background): Nathan/Haley, Brooke/Lindsey, Brooke/Lucas, Brooke/Rachel, Brooke/Peyton, Lucas/Lindsey, Peyton/Jake, Karen/Keith
Other GG ships I like: Emily/Richard, Luke/Lorelai, Lane/Dave, Rory/Paris, Paris/Doyle, Paris/Jamie (and I'm okay with Lane/Zach)
DCU (Comics):
Other Ships I like (for background): Clark/Lois, Bruce/Selina, Diana/Steve, Guy/Tora
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the Justice League or the Lanterns
Carol/Hal: I first saw them in the GL movie, which I know wasn't great to say the least, but I liked their relationship in the comics too, even if it was inconsistent and up and down. When they were good, I thought they were really good. I liked their connection and history and how they can't stay away from one another. The future where they were happy with their grandchild was adorable!
Prompts:
1. post one of their break-ups; The Green Lanterns and Star Sapphires have to work together (reluctantly)
2. Hal proposes but Carol doesn't think he's really serious this time
3. one of them gets sick/hurt and the other takes care of them
Carol/Kyle: This was my crackship when I rp'd as Carol and I was pleasantly surprised to see it become canon. I like that they go on this adventure together and they get closer and slowly come together. It was very sweet. I know Hal came off as a jerk when he found out about them and in general during the arc, but I would rather there not be any bashing of him anyway.
Prompts:
1. set up by mutual friends
2. different first meeting AU
3. artist!Kyle + Carol as his muse
Carol/Hal/Kyle: Why have a triangle when it can be solved by a threesome?
Prompts:
1. Hal is pining for both Carol and Kyle, who he thinks are happier together. They prove him wrong.
2. Trapped in a close space and they have to talk/work out their feelings
3. Kyle stays with established Carol/Hal while his place his being renovated
4. All three are pining for each other while convinced the others have feelings for one person that is not them
Guy/Kyle: I liked their friendship and bond. They're both great characters and I like them both. Kyle is kind and sensitive and Guy can be tough on the outside but really is loyal, protective, and has a soft side too.
Prompts:
1. going undercover as a couple
2. no powers AU where Kyle is an artist and Guy is a teacher
3. dates/down time between missions/running their bar
Soranik/Iolande: Love how these two with their different backgrounds and approaches came to become partners and then friends.
Prompts:
1. Iolande needs to be in a relationship to avoid being set up on dates; Soranik reluctantly agrees
2. Arranged Marriage AU- they are set up for political reasons and first dislike each other and then slowly fall in love
3. casual sex turns into real feelings
4. one of them is hurt/kidnapped and the other goes all out to save them
DCEU:
Other Ships I like: Barry/Iris, Bruce/Selina (I know she isn't in the DCEU - feel free to use your preferred version), Diana/Steve
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the Justice League, Clark & Martha, LoiS & Martha, Lois & Diana
Arthur/Mera: I really liked the Aquaman movie and I thought they were great together. I liked the sporadic interactions we saw from them before that movie, and how their relationship grew from two people who had to work together and how they slowly fell in love.
Prompts:
1. AU where Atlanna was allowed to stay with her family but in exchange, Arthur is expected to wed Mera. They both hate it ... at first
2. Mera is defiant and is engaged to Arthur as punishment
3. post- Aquaman movie; how they deal with Arthur now officially being King while managing his responsibilities on land and all the shenanigans that come with pressure for the two of them to get married
Clark/Lois: They're great together. I love how mature and loving their relationship is. Lois figuring out Clark and his identity and Clark appreciating Lois for believing in him even in MoS was lovely. I didn't see BvS but the scene where Clark tells Lois that she is his world gets to me. I'm so glad that they seem to be not only engaged but have a baby on the way in ZSJL.
Prompts:
1. post ZSJL; preparing for a wedding and a kid! Could definitely be some hijinks there, especially since Lois is definitely going to continue working for a while and will be doing some deep dives on stories
2. anything set in between MoS and BvS; how their relationship comes together. Do they keep it a secret at work? Maybe they have to go undercover for a story even
3. role reversal: Earth is destroyed instead of Krypton and Lois is the last human who ends up there. What family she gets adopted into, the life she leads and how she meets Kal-El.
K3G:
Rahul/Anjali: These two always have the best chemistry and they're just so much fun, before they get together and as a married couple. I love how smitten he was with her immediately and how she was slowly won over and the way that even as they playfully bickered in the second half, you can see how loving their relationship was, despite Rahul's grumpy moments.
Prompts:
1. moments between them leaving his house (after they just got married and he got kicked out) and settling in London
2. the readjustment back to India
3. married moments - anniversaries, holidays, etc
Rohan/Pooja: These two were a lot of fun in the movie. I liked when they were kids and their friendship to their push/pull relationship as adults. Rohan able to go to Pooja and willingness to help really revealed the depth and connection they both had.
Prompts:
1. AU where they secretly kept in touch when Rohan left for boarding school
2. married life
3. shippy moments at any point of the second half of the movie or after
MCU:
Fandom DNW: Steve/Steve's Endgame ending bashing (feel free to ignore), rehash of CW debate with bias toward one side (I'm Team Cap but I don't want it go over it again), Bucky only having flirted with Sarah to make Sam jealous, focus on Zemo, past/present/unrequited Steve/Bucky or Steve/Sam
Other Ships I like (for background): Bucky/Sam, Bucky/Natasha, Bucky/Darcy, Bruce/Betty, Clint/Laura, Clint/Coulson, Natasha/Maria, Natasha/Sharon, Natasha/Rhodey, Natasha/T'Challa, Natasha/Pepper, Rhodey/Carol, Rhodey/Nebula, Rhodey/Sam, Sam/Maria, Steve/Peggy, Steve/Tony, T'Challa/Nakia, Thor/Jane, Tony/Pepper
Friendships/Gen: any of the above, Steve & Bucky, Steve & Sam, Steve & Natasha, Tony & Nebula, Tony & Rhodey, any combo of the Avengers
Bucky/Natasha/Sam: I just think these three would be fun. I love all the individual ships and I think they could work well together, their personalities seeming to really mesh. Natasha would be amused by Sam and Bucky's playful bickering and her sense of humor fits in with theirs too.
Prompts:
1. Natasha survives Endgame and gets closer to both Bucky and Sam
2. they all go undercover together - maybe two of them are pretending to be a couple and they all have mixed feelings over it
3. Natasha and Sam look for Bucky together post TWS
Bucky/Rhodey/Sam: I read a fic about these three and I was sold. It's such an interesting dynamic. Rhodey and Sam's canon friendship is great and I love Sam & Bucky. Rhodey and Bucky would be an interesting duo too. All three of them have the military connection in some form and they've been through their own personal struggles and they could really find a connection with each other. I'm good with it either being set before, during, or after TFATWS.
Prompts:
1. Rhodey sticks around in TFATWS and he somehow ends up spending more time with Sam and/or Bucky. Maybe an undercover mission where two of them have to be faking a relationship and they all pine
2. Rhodey runs into Sam while he's searching for Bucky and helps him out; they all end up connecting
3. soulmate AU where they each have two marks
Erik/Sam: I read a fic about these two once and I was just sold on the pairing. They took very different paths but Sam is very compassionate and Erik does have some good ideas, even if he is shown to go about it wrong. Going by TFATWS, Sam knows what it is like to struggle with his identity and I think had Erik lived, they would clash but they could also find some common ground.
Prompts:
1. Erik lives and Sam meets him while he is on the run, in Wakanda
2. pre-canon they meet while they are both in the army or in college
3. AU where Erik grows up in Wakanda
Natasha/Sam: I really liked these two during TWS. I thought they had good chemistry and I feel like their personalities mesh. They both have a sense of humor, have strong values and are very loyal and brave. It is one of the couples I really could've seen working in canon. Sam's one of my favorites- he's kind but no nonsense and has the attitude that Natasha would appreciate.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU where Natasha's mark was either damaged or removed in her past
2. Bodyguard AU where Sam's the new Captain America and they assign Natasha to protect him after he gains a stalker
3. undercover mission where they have to pretend to be together/married
Peggy/Natasha: I just like the idea of this ship. I can see them getting along- both are strong, passionate and tough and Peggy is a little more impulsive but that is what would make it fun. I said 'MCU' but feel free to go with Peggy's episode of "What If" and run with the Captain Carter route.
Prompts:
1. Natasha time travels or has the serum and meets Peggy in the past
2. Captain Carter and Natasha in the present
3. modern AU- they're rival spies
Sif/Thor: I like their friendship and how they connect, but I also shipped it. I enjoyed the way Sif stands up for herself and Thor has always believed in her and how they save each other. I haven't seen the last two Thor movies but I vaguely know what happened so I'm fine with either being referenced.
Prompts:
1. they reconnect while building a new home for the Asgardians
2. arranged marriage AU - they're both resentful of it but learn to get along and fall in love
3. any point where Thor realizes his feelings - maybe post TDW - but Sif doesn't take him seriously at first
T'Challa/Sam: These are two of my favorite characters and Sam's whole "you like cats" in CACW amused me far more than it should. Obviously they have different backgrounds but they are good people with kind hearts who want to do the right thing and their differences make them all that more intersting. I can see Sam and Shuri teaming up to tease T'Challa and T'Challa charming Sarah despite Sam pouting about it.
Prompts:
1. they connect while Sam is on the run, in Wakanda
2. they meet up again after the 5 year snap
3. AU where T'Challa goes to America to study and then hides his identity and meets Sam
MMPR:
Other Ships I like: Jason/Trini, Jason/Kat, Trini/Billy, Rocky/Adam, Rocky/Adam/Aisha. If it isn't listed here and doesn't involve separating Kim/Tommy, it should be fine.
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the Power Rangers
Kimberly/Tommy: This was my 'shipped before I knew what shipping was' ship. The original OTP. I just loved Kim as a kid - she's just so compassionate and caring but can also kick butt and is really there for the ones she cares about and Tommy felt like such a dashing knight in shining armor, yet with his own insecurities. I thought they were really sweet together. I would love anything from the show to the '95 movie (which I used to rewatch all the time as a kid) to set post breakup. As long as there isn't really any overly dramatic reason for the breakup or involve bashing of the other characters (ex: Kat sent the letter).
Prompts:
1. They never break up and continue to have a long distance relationship
2. they meet up again as adults
3. trying to date while fighting crime and going to school
Smallville:
Fandom DNW: Arrowverse characters/fanon ships, 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' (specifically Clark permanently giving up his powers), focus on Chloe (I had issues with her character starting in s8 but with what the actress has done, I don't really want to read about her in a main role)
Other Ships I like: Martha/Jonathan, Clark/Lois, Lois/Kara, Kara/Jimmy, Kara/Lana, Kara/Chloe, Oliver/Dinah, Oliver/Chloe, Chloe/Victor, Chloe/George Dean (guy she was with in Apocalypse AU), Chloe/Lana, Chloe/Bart, Bart/Mia, AC/Mera, Lex/Lana (as long as he doesn't go evil), Lana/Jason (again, as long as he doesn't go evil), Tess/Emil
Friendships/Gen: any combo of the SV Justice League, Clark & Martha & Jonathan, Clark & Kara, Clark & Lana, Clark & Lois, Clark & Oliver, Clark & Lex, Clark & Tess, Lois & Lana, Lois & Oliver, Lois & Martha, Oliver & Mia, Oliver & Tess
Clark/Lois/Oliver: My OT3. While I love the individual ships in it, I also love the dynamic they have as a trio. We didn't get to see as many scenes with just them as I would've liked but the ones were got were really great. They really balance one another out. Each of them has something in common with one of the others (Clark with Ollie, Clark with Lois, Lois with Ollie) but they're different enough to really make it interesting. I'm good with the three of them getting together at the same time or two of them already being together and including the third.
Prompts:
1. Lois and Oliver get back together in s7 and Oliver notices how close Clark and Lois are getting. Maybe even he kissed Clark while they were undercover (and he told Lois about it). Then he comes up with a plan (once he checks with Lois, of course)
2. after Oliver's revelation that he is Green Arrow, he has to stay on the down low, and ends up hanging out with Lois & Clark more often. Feelings develop from there
3. 'Crimson' AU; Oliver is there when Clark and Lois break into his apartment and they seduce him
4. Luthor AU - they do catch Clark Luthor and decide to keep an eye on him - somehow he turns into exactly what they need and he falls for them/redeems himself too
Clark/Oliver: Another OTP. I didn't expect to fall for them as hard as I did in s6 but I just loved their dynamic. The push and pull and the way they had this ultimate respect for one another was great but then it grew in s8-10. It was tough watching them fight but I did like how they always came back together, and even when they didn't agree, they cared about each other with Clark always believing Oliver was better and Oliver reminding Clark that the Kandorians weren't the only family that he had. One of my favorite moments was when Clark said that he hadn't quit on Oliver Queen in "Echo". One thing I do ask if that if you choose to set it in the later seasons that Lois doesn't get hurt. I am fine with handwaving the Clois romance rather than her having unrequited feelings or them breaking up because I adore her/don't want to see her hurt and I love Clois.
Prompts:
1. Clark takes up Oliver's offer in "Justice" and goes with the team on their adventures and they get closer in the meantime
2. Superman's citizenship comes into question, even with his home in the Arctic so he publicly marries Green Arrow
3. Clark runs into Oliver on his red k summer, Oliver ends up inviting him on his trip on his yacht and then they end up on the island together
Lois/Oliver: Despite their great first scene (I love how Lois made Oliver speechless), I was really skeptical about them at first but they really won me over, with their great chemistry. They both are different but also similar in a way that you can imagine them working out in a different world and I even love their strong friendship in the final seasons.
Prompts:
1. Lois finds out she is pregnant after Oliver leaves in s6
2. she gives him a second chance in 'Siren' and how they deal with a long distance relationship
3. Lois has to work with Oliver/Green Arrow for a story (or maybe she interviews him - either identity)
Lois/Lana: They had their own little meet cute at the graveyard. I liked how they were friends right away and how Lois took to Lana immediately. They clearly get along very well and they had some good chemistry to which I can see them being a couple. Lois respects Lana and has listed her virtues to even Clark and Lana called Lois a good listener. I haven't read the s11 comics but it seems they had some good scenes there and Lana even gave Lois (and Clark) her blessing. On that note, please don't make Clark the villain or have them hook up because one or both are pining over him.
Prompts:
1. Lois stays in Metropolis University and then she needs a roommate and it ends up being Lana
2. Lana meets Lois in Paris instead of Jason
3. Lana visits Lois in college with Chloe and then hits it off with Lois
Lois/Tess: I fell for these two immediately after their first scene in "Odyssey". I have to admit I had my doubts on Tess because she seemed like too much of a Lex replacement but I was won over right away and I shipped these two a lot. They had such chemistry right off the bat and it never faded. I loved them when they were at each other's throats and also loved how they became friends/trusted each other in s10. They're both strong willed, determined and they want to do what it is right- Lois is a little more brash while Tess is more calculated but at the end of the day, they ended up on the same side. I like fic set during any of those time periods, preferably AUs where Clois never got together if it is in the later seasons.
Prompts:
1. soulmate AU, where they have each other's initials. I imagine that with all the people with LL, it might get confusing, and Lois would not even know Tess's name is Lutessa so maybe she doesn't even think it could be her
2. Lois meets Tess before she ends up on the island
3. The Proposal (2009 movie) AU
Lana/Tess: They may not have had many scenes together but what they did have sold me on the chemistry and potential. Both of them are complicated and want to do what is right/be the hero (Tess has obviously had more stumbles than Lana) and they were each manipulated by Lex at some point. I think they would get along if they spent time in later seasons together.
Prompts:
1. one night stand turns into FWB
2. have to go undercover as a couple
3. different first meeting- Tess shows up to Smallville when Lex is still alive and meets Lana
Ted Lasso:
Fandom DNW: Sam/Rebecca - either there or Rebecca using Sam as a substitute for Ted, Nate bashing/comeuppance - I'm fine with him realizing where he went wrong but I don't want it to be about all the other characters lecturing him
Other Ships I like (for background): The Higgins, Sam/Dani, Ted/Rebecca
Friendships/Gen: any combo of AFC Richmond players, Ted & Beard, Ted & Roy, Ted & Jamie, Roy Beard, Roy & Jamie, Rebecca & Higgins, Rebecca & Keeley
Keeley/Roy: I just loved their relationship on the show. How they came together, and how they communicate and make it over their hurdles and how *into* each other they were. Also so supportive and reassuring. Really adorable. I was very sad about their breakup in s3 but the open ending gives me hope, since they are clearly still in each other's lives and can find their way back to one another. I'm fine with fics set at any point or AUs where they didn't break up at all.
Prompts:
1. Keeley ends up winning Roy in the auction
2. Roy finds a time/way to propose and now they have to plan the wedding
3. pre-canon to early canon where Keeley dates football players and Roy is secretly pining
Keeley/Roy/Jamie: I like the potential of these three. Roy and Jamie have come so far, Roy and Keeley are adorable, and of course Keeley and Jamie's friendship is great too. Especially in the second half of season 2. The scene where Keeley and Roy get mad about that foul Jamie took in the s2 finale? So in sync. S3 showed that Keeley and Jamie still have a romantic connection too and I like that they're all in each other's spaces in the finale.
Prompts:
1. post finale where they're some misunderstanding and Roy ends up going on a date with a guy who looks like Jamie, which pushes them to take the next step (and Jamie is less than impressed when Keeley points out the resemblance)
2. Roy gets amnesia and becomes more like he was in his early twenties; Keeley and Jamie find it hot
3. Roy goes on vacation and with Keeley's insistence, Jamie ends up tagging along. They end up developing feelings and then Keeley joins in
Sam/Dani/Jamie: I like all the individual relationships here. Dani and Sam are just sunshine characters and I love how Dani was comfortable enough to jump into Sam's arms almost right after they met. Sam and Jamie's growth really gets to me, and I love how supportive Jamie is of Dani toward the end of s2. They were an unexpected duo that I love, especially considering how much Jamie was jealous of/didn't like Dani early on. Now Sam and Dani are two of Jamie's closest friends!
Prompts:
1. Jamie finds out Sam and Dani are together; he tries to be supportive but is also jealous
2. two of them are together and decide to woo the third
3. the three of them have a one night stand after drinking too much/celebrating
Sam/Jamie: The casual way Jamie drapes himself over Sam and how far they've come really has sold me on the potential of this ship. The contrast between their relationship with their fathers is also intriguing. I like how that since Jamie hurt Sam worse than others, he had to work harder to win back his trust and forgiveness and now Sam is arguably one of his closest friends. He wore his number! Adorable! :D
Prompts:
1. for some reason, it gets around that Sam and Jamie are together and when Jamie's dad calls him, he doubles down and ends up revealing they're engaged when they're not even together. Sam goes along with it
2. Jamie finds out about Sam and Rebecca and offers to cover for them by letting Sam tell people he is hanging out with Jamie so no one suspects. All while pining (I know I have a Sam/Rebecca DNW but I'm fine with it in a background space as long as Rebecca isn't bashed on the way to get to Sam/Jamie)
3. friends with benefits turns into real feelings
Thanks again! :D
