Pairing Meme, Cont'd

[alixtii]

There's six pairings that Ari wasn't able to (or at least hasn't yet) guess in last week's meme. They're from two book fandoms, a comics fandom, a TV fandom, a theatre fandom, and a movie fandom, although I can think of at least one pairing which arguably fits into more than one of those categories. New parts of clues are underlined; the parts of the old clues I took out to still make 15 words are in strikethrough. Two are 0T3's/rival OTP's (e.g., Wesley/Fred/Lilah).

3. Sentences flow together and genome shared, as do selves in bodies stripped bare to red-headed clones travel  through infinite times, possibilities. Hook shop? Got myth?> [Robert A. Heinlein's World-as-Myth -- Lapus Lazuli Long/Lorelai Lee Long -- guessed by wisdomeagle]

5. Complements, conqueror and nurturer Talk about smart kids: all the world, save one brother, falls at their feet, via computer. [Ender's Game -- Peter/Valentine -- guessed by seriousfic]

10. A madwoman, irresistible; and her caretaker, now awake: the future which manipulates them underestimates their love. [The 4400 -- Tess/Kevin -- guessed by wisdomeagle]

12. New canon (boo! invented in his mind) wrecks old OTP, gives new one. No need for Ursine ingestion? No thanks, though. [X-Men Movieverse -- Bobby/Rogue/Kitty -- guessed by wisdomeagle]

13. Cooler than Tryst with cat no rival for red-haired true love beauty--'til David's star arrives in school Queens? [Ultimate Marvel -- Peter/MJ/Kitty -- guessed by wisdomeagle]

14. Age Epoch too young for chaos theory, girl pupil too young to dance waltz; her absence breeds madness.

[Arcadia -- Thomasina/Septimus -- guessed (with major clue-giving from me) by wisdomeagle]

5 is clearly Peter/Valentine.

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

It is indeed!

3. Laz/Lor?
12. Rogue/Bobby/Kitty?
13. Peter/Mary Jane?

3 and 12 are right.

For 13 you have one leg of the triangle--but I know you know who the other person is.

[wisdomeagle]

Kitty!

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

None other!

3. Doctor Who and Kari Byron of Mythbusters?

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Interesting guess. Here the redheads are actually the ones who travel through time and space.

10. Tess/Kevin

14. Is the fandom Woman in White?

10. What were you working from? My interests? Anyway, yes.

14. No.

[wisdomeagle]

Well, in a sense. When I saw there was one tv one left I guessed it was The 4400 and that it was #10 (the one with "future" rather than "epoch too young for chaos theory," which seemed more likely to be the musical fandom), so I wiki'd 4400 without luck, so I wiki'd Summer Glau to get to her role in 4400, skimmed the character synopsis and found the parts that matched.

[and by "musical" I mean "theatre," which gives me an idea.]

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

14 is the theatre fandom, but it's not a musical.

[wisdomeagle]

George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, Henry Higgins/Eliza Doolittle?

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Nope.

I 'ship Eliza with Clara.

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

I see how that fits the clue, though, except for the part about chaos theory. But really, I wouldn't stick anyone with Henry, not even Mrs. Higgins when his mother-fixation is canon.

The one pairing that's left, I've written fic for it.

[wisdomeagle]

So would that be Thomasina Coverly/Septimus Hodge?

*fills in final pairing*

[wisdomeagle]

Do I win a prize?

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Sure, if you want one.
