Give me one character and I will tell you: 1. OTP/favorite pairing for them. 2. Runner-up pairing. 3. Honourable mention(s). 4. Crack pairing(s). 5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't.
1. Mal/Kaylee, my Firefly OTP 2. Kaylee/River, for girlslash guh 3. Simon/Kaylee, for "I identify with the guy"-style het 4. Kaylee/Saffron, Dawn/Kaylee 5. Jayne/Kaylee, Wash/Kaylee; if I'm going to pair Kaylee with a guy, you can be pretty sure it'll be Mal or Simon
I'm weird about my incest. LOL I feel like that would make a fairly successful T-shirt at a con, but I digress. I usually have no problem at all with sibcest, reading or writing or getting off on or what have you. But parental incest walks a real fine line for me. It has to be dark and negative and damaging for me to read or write it, I think, because I can't imagine parent/child incest being anything other than Really Really Bad for the child, whereas I can imagine sibcest in certain situations not being dark or damaging. Does that make sense?
Like I can get into Connor/Angel or John/Winchester son because it's wrong and fucked up and wrong. I could never believe that it would be a healthy positive relationship.
Although in the interest of full disclosure, is it Veronica Mars for you? Because I wanna say somebody on my flist had written or recced Veronica/Daddy and I ended up liking it more than I thought I would.
I think in all the conversations about fictional incest I've ever had, there has been near-universal agreement that parent/child is squickier than sibcest. Sometimes in discussions where that's the only thing anyone can agree on at all. (Incest: people haz opinions!)
Veronica Mars Veronica/Keith is the pairing I've written, yes (wisdomeagle and I both wrote each other Keith/Veronica/Mac one year for 3_ships). Outside of Ari and me I don't know very many people who 'ship it (she converted me), but really once you have been converted it's so canon it's kinda painful.
Although I have sort of always wanted to write Hank/Dawn.
Dawn almost gets a get out of jail free card for any pairing because of her keyness. She's not *really* his daughter. Does that make it better for me? *flails* I dunno. I think you should write this story.
Veronica's Daddy is named Keith. Yes. I thought that was either you or Ari and yea verily it was the both of you. It's possible I could be converted. Can you link a girl? I'd like to read those stories again now that we're talking about it.
Hank/Dawn works for me not so much because of her Keyness as because Hank was canonically absent for her entire adolescence. So he sort of missed the transformation of "his daughter" into "smoking hot woman," and might not even be able to recognize Dawn.
Quoth Ari: "Because fandom is a funny place where a lesbian and a straight man spend the weekend before New Year's writing each other explicit incestuous threesome porn. Elizabeth's verdict is that we are cute."
