Shipping Confessions: Jameron (TSCC) [Reposted]

I know at the beginning of this series I said I would only do non-canon pairings. However, the fact of the matter is I left myself open to talk about canon pairings that I think people don't think I really ship. Or if I keep some canon ships in the background. I left that loophole so I could talk about Jameron.

What is Jameron? Make sure you're not by a Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles fan. Because while some Jameron fans will tell you kindly, there are real fanatics out there that might hit you.

Shipping Confessions: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Bant Eerin (Jedi Apprentice) [Reposted]

I admit this ship is hard for me to talk about because it's been forever since I've read a Jedi Apprentice book. I can only remember my love of this ship and nothing much besides that.

For those wondering: The Star Wars book series called Jedi Apprentice followed the early adventures of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. It showed how the duo met up and there were some heart breaking moments. It wasn't as damaging to me as Animorphs, but it still had bad things happening to good people.

This is the ship I have been shipping before I knew what shipping was and I thought this pair was canon but it wasn't. I was left dazed and confused.

The ship is Obi-Wan Kenobi and Bant Eerin.

Shipping Confessions: Serek (TSCC) [Reposted]

Back to the lovely Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles! Oh how I've missed you. And I wish you could've lived a long life. Spanning many seasons and letting my obsession boil to new heights.

Oh, right, supposed to be writing a blog post here. Not a love letter to TSCC (aka, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles). That can wait for later.

Shipping Confessions: Walter x Astrid (Fringe)[Reposted]

Now we are stepping into another series that has been cancelled. Unlike Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Fringe was given notice that it was to be cancelled after its upcoming fifth season. This allowed the team the ability to finish the series on their own terms. Hell, episode nineteen of the previous season was basically a trailer for season five.

Shipping Confessions: Coulson/Skye (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) [Reposted]

I am a Joss Whedon fan. Yes, I am a Whedonite. So when I heard about Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. it wasn't merely it expanding on the MCU that interested me about it, but the fact that Whedon was in charge of it. As a Whedonite I have to check everything out by him and I haven't been disappointed by him once (I'll finally get to watching all of Dollhouse, I promise, very nerdy reason I didn't before but that's for another post).

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. follows the adventures, and misadventures, of Phil Coulson's team. For the first season the big mystery was how Coulson was alive. Now that that has been answered there are still a lot of mysteries to be solved.

Now I guess one of my things with ships is the whole master/apprentice relationship. I don't know why, but I really enjoy those dynamics in ships. Such is the case with the non-canon ship I'll be talking about today.

I will be talking about the non-canon pairing of Phil Coulson and Skye/Daisy Johnson today.

Shipping Confessions: Hannigram (Hannibal tv series) [Reposted]

I have no clue why I haven't talked about this ship sooner since I ship it very hard. It is one of those ships that me, and other shippers, think should be canon. Behind the scenes, Bryan Fuller has stated it's canon but not in a sexual sense. For me, I ship it with sex included.

The ship is from the show Hannibal which is about Will Graham solving crimes and his relationship to the cannibal Hannibal Lecter. The series is extremely well done in every aspect. Including casting choices and visuals.

The ship I will be talking about today is Hannigram (aka between Hannibal Lecter and Will Graham). It is one of those ships that is so twisted it is a joy for me but not something I'd support in real life.

Shipping Confessions: Bruce Banner/Betty Ross (The Incredible Hulk, 2008) [Reposted]

This is a special edition of Shipping Confessions since this deals with a canon relationship. So why am I talking about it if it's canon? The fact is that I ship it and I don't feel that Betty is given enough credit in The Avengers fandom. Plus people tend to forget that Tony Stark isn't the first or only person to treat Bruce like a human being (though he's in second place after Betty).

Sadly Betty, in the MCU, has only appeared in The Incredible Hulk and was not brought up in either The Avengers or Iron Man 3. So I only have one movie to work off of here.

The canon ship I will  be talking about this time is Bruce Banner and Betty Ross. A couple that really seems to be forgotten by the majority of the MCU fandom.

The Incredible Hulk follows Bruce Banner running from General Ross and having to deal with another Hulk-like creature. During the movie Bruce runs into Betty Ross, a girlfriend of his before the gamma ray experiment accident, and ends up having to part from her at the end of the movie.

Shipping Confessions: Jesse Flores x Riley Dawson (TSCC) [Reposted]

Again we find ourselves at the doorsteps of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. There are just so many reasons to come back to this show. As this is another edition of Shipping Confessions, we are looking at yet another non-canon ship from this masterpiece of a television series.

I say that I like femslash because I find myself attracted to femslash pairings easier than slash or heterosexual ships. I don't mean that I have more femslash pairings than any other kind of pairing, just that there is something special I feel towards femslash pairings. I don't fetishize these kinds of pairings to the point it affects my perception of real people, like some others do.

I never bought into the relationship between Jesse Flores and Derek Reese. The pairing made Derek dumber just so the pairing would work. However, I can't deny that it's a canon ship. But who I pair Jesse with in the show is not canon and yet works so much better.

Shipping Confessions: Harry Dresden/Karrin Murphy (The Dresden Files)[Reposted]

Picture from HERE

I am a fan of The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher. I have never seen the short-lived tv show and I don't really feel a need to see it. I've heard from others how it strays from the series and I feel I'll have the same reactions to it that I did for the Animorphs series. Which isn't something I need to experience again anytime soon.

The Dresden Files follows the adventures of Harry Dresden who is a wizard. The series is very interesting and I'd highly suggest it for those who like fantasy/mystery series. And if you're already a fan of the series: feel free to fangirl with me!

Throughout the series Harry Dresden and Karrin Murphy seem to be an almost couple. They always seem to hover around the issue with Cold Days being the first instance where they really talk about their feelings for each other.

Shipping Confessions: Joan/Moriarty (Elementary) [Reposted]

Well we're sticking with Elementary as there's one other ship in the series that I'm really into. It makes it sad, then, that one of the characters in the ship only has four appearances in the show in total.

The ship is between Joan Watson and Jamie Moriarty. It took me until the second season to decide that I liked their personalities and not just how the pair of them looked together.

In the last Shipping Confessions I talked about Joan Watson so I'll talk about her first here.

Shipping Confessions: Vorian Atredies/Xavier Harkonnen (Dune)[Reposted]

My trip into the Dune Universe, started by the late Frank Herbert, started when I watched Dune (1984) in my childhood. That movie isn't accurate to the source material, but it's a beloved film of mine and I was more than happy to get it on blu-ray.

Frank Herbert wrote the original Dune books and then died before completing them. After his passing, his son and another writer, Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson respectfully, wrote some prequels before completing the original Dune series.

I will be getting back to the Dune prequels later, finishing up a Stephen King novel at the time of starting this post, and found myself shipping Xavier Harkonnen and Vorian "Vor" Atreides. I decided that I should share my love of this ship with you.

Enjoy.

Shipping Confessions: Kylo Ren/Rey (Star Wars)

Star Wars is a series that spans many movies, books, video games, and other media. It is a series that captured the imaginations of many around the world. The movies focus on the classic struggle of good versus evil with mystical warriors at the forefront.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens was able to reawaken the Star Wars movies. After the prequels came out I grew worried that any Star Wars movie could be good again. I was happy to see that The Force Awakens proved me wrong.

Today I'm going to be looking at a possible incest ship. I say possible as we don't know the exact genealogy of Rey and Kylo Ren. It is possible that they aren't related and yet it's equally possible that they are related.

Shipping Confessions: Jorah Mormont/Daenerys Targaryen (Game of Thrones)

Game of Thrones is an extremely compelling television series. It has action, drama, love, and the ability to tear your heart out of your chest only for you to come back next week. Villains and heroes aren't clear cut which is always a good thing to see. The reason I love the Animorphs book series, among other reasons, is because it does the same thing of having the line between good and evil be heavily blurred.

There are many plot lines in the show and in the books there are even more. I am waiting until the tv series is done to read the books so I'm only going off of what I have heard from the book readers. Anyways...one of the many plot lines is Daenerys Targaryen amassing an army to reclaim the Iron Throne for her House. The Iron Throne is the seat where the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms sits.

Today I will discuss a ship I was shipping even before I started watching the show. Yes, I was shipping Daenerys Targaryen and Jorah Mormont long before I watched the first episode of Game of Thrones.

Shipping Confessions: Poe Dameron/Finn (Star Wars)

The Star Wars prequels lowered everyone's expectations of what the series could offer. After the prequels George Lucas seems like a much less impressive name than before. No one can take away his past accomplishments but they can doubt how good he is now.

Luckily The Force Awakens woke the Star Wars name up to something great. People can say that The Force Awakens is a copy of A New Hope, but it would be hard to deny the new film being a breath of fresh air from the prequels.

I don't hate the prequels, but they were leagues below the Original Trilogy.

So today I will talk about the love between Poe Dameron and Finn. This non-canon ship was very easy for me to let join my armada.

Shipping Confessions: Elfangor/Loren (Animorphs)

Here is another, very rare, canon ship. This time from the Animorphs series. But Loren and Elfangor-Sirinial-Shamtul is a couple that has very far reaching effects in the Animorphs series, as well as being dear to my heart.

With this ship there aren't only two lives affected, but the lives of the Animorphs themselves.

There will be some big spoilers in this part of Shipping Confessions so if you haven't read The Andalite Chronicles and #49, stop reading and only continue after you've read those two books in the series.

For all those who don't mind spoilers or have read the books, let's start talking about Loren and Elfangor in full.

Shipping Confessions: Tobias/Bruce Banner (Animorphs/The Avengers)

Well this is a new thing to be covered on Shipping Confessions. This is the first ever crossover ship covered in this series! Now crossover ships are not a new thing and there is a whole section on fanfiction.net for these types of fanfics. You just take characters from one or more series and then you put them together. Awhile back I wrote a post about how Tobias and Bruce Banner were similar. Well that connection between the two eventually lead me to shipping the pair.

I joked about shipping them and then I seriously started shipping them, proving that I can't do crackships (aka ships that you joke for fun but don't truly believe).

Animorphs is a series about six teenagers, one being an alien, trying to stop an alien invasion until backup can arrive. It's actually very dark and deep for a YA series.

The Avengers is a movie where superheroes team up to stop an alien invasion.

I will be talking about the non-canon pairing of Tobias (Animorphs) and Bruce Banner (The Avengers).

Shipping Confessions: Michonne/Rick (The Walking Dead)

I am not a huge zombie fan. I'm not one of those people that needs to be up to date about everything zombie related. There are only a few zombie related things that I feel any great longing for. First is World War Z by Max Brooks which is written like War of the Worlds but with zombies, Z Nation which I originally started watching purely for seeing DJ Qualls each week, and The Walking Dead tv show.

The Walking Dead follows Rick Grimes and his adventures to keep himself and his band alive in the post-apocalyptic world filled with walkers (the show's word for zombies). The show also spends time on other characters and sub-plots.

Today I'll be looking at the non-canon pairing of Rick Grimes and Michonne.

Shipping Confessions: Steve/Natasha (The Avengers and Captain America 2)

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (aka MCU) is wonderful. It started as just Iron Man and has branched off into different superheroes as well as crossovers between one or more series. Such as The Avengers was a crossover between all the current superheroes.

Captain America (as seen in Captain America: The First Avenger, The Avengers, and Captain America: The Winter Soldier) is an old fashioned hero with ideals that the world he is thrown into doesn't seem to have. He wants to protect the world as he tries to understand it. That's what his storylines mainly focus on.

Shipping Confessions: Luna/Harry (Harry Potter)

Harry Potter is a series I highly enjoy. Even though it does have its problems, I will continue going back to it time and again. It treats children as adults and shows them that friendship is very important. Even though good doesn't always have such a happy ending, it is nice to see a happy ending every now and again.

Harry Potter is about the title character going through trials, tribulations, and helping to defeat Lord Voldemort. The majority of the series focuses on the wizard school of Hogwarts.

Shipping Confessions: Sparia (Pretty Little Liars)

Today we're going into the tv series Pretty Little Liars. The tv series is based on the books of the same name by Sara Shepard. The tv/book series follow four girls as they try to figure out who killed their friend Ali as a mysterious person known only as 'A' harasses them.
