meme! I haven't done a meme in forever!
Apr. 5th, 2012 10:53 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Meme found in the wild: Make a list of all the characters in your icons (although you may have more than one icon of a single character, they only go on the list once). Alphabetize it. Take the first two people on the list; that's your first pairing. Second two people; second pairing, etc. Treat us to some commentary once you're done.
Turns out, I've got a lot of icons – and a lot of them are really random! Organising the character icons as instructed for the meme throws together some…shall we say 'interesting' pairings! I suspect the meme probably has romantic/slashy intentions, but I'm neither a shipper nor a slasher, so…well, but just picturing some of these characters sharing an adventure of some kind together, somehow, makes the mind boggle!
Aeryn Sun (Farscape)
Alec Hardison (Leverage)
Aeryn would find Hardison amusing, sure, but she'd never give up Crichton for him, and Hardison has eyes only for Parker. They'd make a fab team, though, paired for an adventure – Hardison's brains and Aeryn's brawn.
Alex Karev (Grey's Anatomy)
Andromeda (Andromeda)
Yeah…no. Just no. She's the AI of a warship and Alex is screwed up enough as it is.
Beka Valentine (Andromeda)
Bobby Singer (Supernatural)
Oh, Bobby would love Beka, were it possible for them to meet; she's kickass enough to fit right in with the hunter underworld. Beka hates being planetside, though, and I can't see Bobby getting on so well in her world, so maybe not.
Bodie (The Professionals)
Chandler Bing (Friends)
Chandler would be in awe of Bodie. And terrified of him. In equal measure.
Chris Skelton (Life on Mars)
Cordelia Chase (Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel)
My god, Cordelia would eat Chris alive!
Dean Winchester (Supernatural)
Donna Noble (Doctor Who)
I actually love the idea of these two sharing a scene. Awesome.
Eleventh Doctor (Doctor Who)
Eliot Spencer (Leverage)
Eliot finds Hardison hard to take in geek mode. Eleven would make him want to blow his brains out! They'd be fun to watch, though.
First Doctor (Doctor Who)
Fourth Doctor (Doctor Who)
We never saw these two interact, since Four didn't really participate in The Five Doctors. One wasn't impressed by Two or Three; I wonder what he'd have made of Four?
Harry Sullivan (Doctor Who)
Jayne Cobb (Firefly)
Poor Harry, is all I can say! Although I can actually picture the Tardis landing on Serenity and causing consternation…
Jo Harvelle (Supernatural)
John Deed (Judge John Deed)
I'd like to say that John would see Jo as a daughter-figure, but he's too much of a ladies' man for that – and he has been known to pull girls his daughter's age!
John Mitchell (Being Human)
Kaylee Fry (Firefly)
Mitchell and his epic vampire angst vs Kaylee's bubbly optimism. Well, he does like the type – he adored Annie, after all.
Marc Antony (Rome)
Max (Dark Angel)
They'd never meet, but I reckon Marc Antony would have met his match in Max. She wouldn't like him at all.
Miguel Ortiz (seaQuest DSV)
Monica Geller (Friends)
I can imagine Miguel fitting in fairly well with the Friends dynamic, at least as a one-off boyfriend-of-the-week.
Ninth Doctor (Doctor Who)
Oz (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Do you know, I can actually imagine Oz as a companion. He took vampires and werewolfism completely in his stride. He wouldn't bat an eyelid at the Tardis.
Priestly (Ten Inch Hero)
Pullo (Rome)
Um…no. Just no.
Ray Doyle (The Professionals)
River Tam (Firefly)
Doyle would not know what the hell to make of River and her fractured mind. Just as well they'd never meet.
Rose Tyler (Doctor Who)
Rupert Giles (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
I can actually imagine Rose and Giles working well together, on a shared adventure of some kind, should they ever meet, which they never would.
Sam Tyler (Life on Mars)
Sam Winchester (Supernatural)
It's the tale of the two Sams!
Sarah Jane Smith (Doctor Who)
Second Doctor (Doctor Who)
Well, Sarah got on famously with every Doctor she ever met – Three, Four, Ten, Eleven…why should Two be any different?
Simon Tam (Firefly)
Snyder (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Yeah, that's another no. Just no.
Tenth Doctor (Doctor Who)
Vorenus (Rome)
Do you know, I once wrote a story about the Ninth Doctor and his cohort landing in Rome and crossing paths with Vorenus (among others), very briefly. Ten…yeah, I can imagine him landing in Rome and running into the Vorenus family. How they might or might not get along is another matter entirely.
Wash (Firefly)
Zoe (Firefly)
Aww. I love that even after alphabetising my icons, these two are still together. True love.
