Dude the tenth kingdom was awesome! That the werewolf was just the cutest!
Ketz you don't look ridiculous D:
And since we are speaking of miniseries I'll bring one up too, what about 'Birds of pray' thats what I think it's called...It's about Batman's daughter, and the only reason I heard of it is because Harley is the main bad guy of this. She doesn't look anything like her or talk like her but eh...It seems to have Yuri XD Or maybe it's really not Harley and I was just reading wrong /:

I agree about the awesomeness of the Tenth Kingdom, but he's not a werewolf! XD He's a half-wolf, meaning half human, half wolf. He's pretty much a human with a tail and wolf-like tendencies, and the full moon makes him go crazy, but he doesn't actually transform into a wolf... If I don't look ridiculous then my avatar does. XD Oh, so have you actually seen Birds of Pray? Is Ivy in it? >D *wants to see*

Mmm...not a big Batman fan, so dunno how much I'd like that. Also yuri has never done it for me I must say. Don't mind it, but generally don't seek it.
So he's a wannabe werewolf? Hot! razz
To continue the miniseries vein, I also really like Earthsea, but I admit that it's not that well done and the end totally kinda fails, still like it though. Has nothing to do with my huge Shawn Ashmore crush either I swear whee .

Oh yea I forget XD I wish they would have made another, and used the same actors.
I haven't seen it, but we should check it out. T__T I don't think she is. she is in the batman eps though so thats okay because they give us plenty of slash in that XD even Nat was laughing at all of it, but shes a pervert so of course she noticed the small things. Oh and I think Harley and Batmans girl have a thing going on, just because of the vids I've seen, they are always so close >>
Wow getting really off topic here XD

Videos have a way of making people appear to have a thing - which I love. Like Kyou and Yuki in Fruba...and Zero and Kaname in Vampire Knight. Who'd know watching half the videos out there that in fact they have extreme hate/hate relationships.

@JK: Guess Batman and yuri aren't for everyone. XD Especially the two combined... <3 Not even a wannabe werewolf, really... just a half wolf. Werewolves don't really exist in the Tenth Kingdom universe, at least not that I know of. Earthsea, eh? Never heard of it...
@Karma: I know, it was such a good series, and they were totally planning a sequel! D: I think all the Batman characters have things going on for each other. XD But dude, you can totally take X-Men seriously! Even though I did realize just how much of a dumbass Wolverine is in Wolverine and the X-Men, and how overly-dramatic Mystique can be... but it's still good!
@JK: Heehee, as someone who was introduced to pairing fandoms through Puppyshipping, I can't help but appreciate those videos. To me, characters hating each other automatically means they're in love/want to bang each other. >D

Kits - Haha, definitely not, as my only minor interest would be in certain villains and not paired together, not even yaoi.
Earthsea is cute, the end is lame - I can't even remember it, just that it was lame. It also has Kristen Kreuk (so spelling that wrong, so too tired to look it up, she's the girl who plans Lana - which I might also be spelling incorrectly - in Smallville) in it. It's kind of wizards and stuff. It's a lot older than Tin Man, not a HUGE lot, but at least a few years. I wanna say I was in HS when I saw it. Yea I can't give a decent summary, but google probably could, haha. It's cute, I would maybe buy it next time I see it on the shelf for $3 (shoulda bought it the other time, oh well), a good "something to stick in the player for background entertainment" type of dvd after the inital "cute" viewing. I like Tin Man way more though, better characters, more charisma.
And it doesn't always automatically mean it for me, but I love it 9/10 times. Puppyshipping was one of the things that didn't actually do it for me, but I think because originally I was indifferent to Jou. Generally with the love/hate pairings I either have to love both characters, or love one and HATE the other. Like Yuki and Kyou - love and love. Or Harry and Snape - love Snape, hate Harry (yes I am one of those, but I just never liked him even when I started reading the books 11 or so years ago, ugh I'm old!!! - I wouldn't change him, I love him how he is - but I love to dislike him as well). I like Jou more now, I think after having my only two friends really into Yugioh despise the pairing for so long it's hard to break old feelings, but it's growing on me I have to say. TAS plays a HUGE role in that. That's what I shall blame when my friend's are like "how could you!!!" I'll just say "Little Kuriboh made me do it!!"
wink

Oh, yes, I know who Lana is. I liked Smallville at least for the first season... but if I ever see Earthsea on display or something, I'll keep it in mind. ^^ I guess it would be wrong for me to say it automatically means so for me too then. XD;; I mean, there have definitely been cases where I didn't like pairings of characters hating each other. Like... Ayeka and Ryouko from Tenchi Muyo... don't know if you know the series, but it was the only one I could think of at the time. XD;; And I mean, I guess I don't despise the pairing, but I dislike Ayeka so much and love Ryouko so much, that I just... I prefer not to have the annoyance that is Ayeka drag Ryouko down. XD;; Even though I like pairing the two for more comedic purposes sometimes... I don't really think I have a general rule to liking hate pairings... I just usually end up loving or liking them, regardless of how I feel for the characters, or occasionally just don't care for them. Like with Snape and Harry... though I love Snape in the movies, I don't particularly like him in the books, and I don't really like Harry either, but I still like the pairing to an extent. XD But I agree about the Harry thing. Don't like him, never really have, but wouldn't change that for anything. And now I think I love TAS even more, if it's converting my friends into Puppyshippers! >D Or at least people who don't dislike the pairing... <3

Yea I stopped watching Smallville a few seasons ago, it didn't stream online and I didn't have the time my senior year when it was slotted. I really liked it in the beginning too but it just became too much of a soap opera, I tried to get back into it and couldn't.
But yea Earthsea is cute, and it's shorter than Tin Man too, I think it's only 2 parts.
I don't know it but that's fine, I get the purpose of the example, haha. I understand comedic purposes, I think amusement is part of what would peak my interest in something like puppyshipping, because intially it's just funny...oh TAS rofl .
I don't try to have a rule, haha, that's just how it seems to go. And I love Snape always *huggles him*.

Yeah, Smallville just... wasn't cool anymore. XD;; It was like trying to attract a different audience than the super hero fans, yet it's about Superman... that just doesn't work. Yes, yes, Puppyshipping is very funny too! <3 That is another reason it appeals to me so much, because it can be super serious and emotional, and it can be very sexy, yet also very comedic. Doesn't do fluff so well, but since that's generally my least favorite type of romance, I can live with that. XD Hermione was one of my favorite characters early in the series, before the Order of the Phoenix and such were introduced, and just the way Snape was so mean to her and her friends... like, didn't really give them a chance to fight back, because as a teacher he had so much power over them, I had a hard time liking him, outside of how funny he's portrayed in the movies, with his elongated-sounding voice and flowy-ness, and then when Sirius was introduced... he became my favorite character (Lupin becoming my second), and because, though he and Snape hated each other, it wasn't so much in the vicious fighting way or always glaring at each other way, but more in the one tries to ignore the other while the other just picks on him to be an a** way, they didn't really appeal to me as a couple, and I instead felt the need to team with Sirius and Lupin against Snape. (holy s**t long sentence!) I definitely sympathized with Snape when he got picked on, and saw him as the victim, but I didn't at all respect the way he carried it out as an adult, taking out his anger on Harry (though, like Harry, I wouldn't change this about Snape's character, because he just works right in the series without appealing to me) for what James did, trying to get Lupin caught as a werewolf as a form of petty revenge, just being a general a*****e to people not in Slytherin and obviously favoring his own students... I guess I just expect more out of him as an adult, and as a teacher in a position of responsibility, and instead he takes things out on people like a drama queen. XD Again, not something I would ever change, but also not something that allows me to like a character too much. I don't hate him by any means though.

Seriously, only my now gay exboyfriend still watches - because he thinks Tom Welling is hot! (Something I apparently didn't notice while we were dating, haha...we were 17 though, and I wasn't exactly into him so why would I care to notice things? It's just he was my friend and he asked me out and I didn't exactly answer so he took that as a yes and told people so I was like ok fine. Only lasted a few months anyhow ^_~).
It also leads itself to a whole shitload of crack, and I tend to love crack. Yay crack! rofl
Hermione is one of my favorites too. Ron, Draco, Snape and Hermione - probably in that order. I think the things I love about Snape is while he's obviously very clever, he's bitter and lonely and just has nobody - he inadvertently caused the death of the only person he's ever cared about/has ever cared about him. I love him because he's in pain, and I love him more because of how he deals with it. Yes it IS immature and abusive, but these are things that attract me to a character. If he was the way he was and had everything going for him I wouldn't like him, but from the beginning it was very obvious (even if you don't know all the details) that was never the case, so the obnoxious arrogance does not offend me because of the justifications. And the justifications cause me to love him.
Hermione gets on my nerves 9/10, and she's such a dork - but yes, I still love her. Though she's probably one of the characters I would change a few things about. However I don't want to get into all that right now, or possibly ever, 4laugh .

Oh well that's an interesting relationship XD
Wait...It leads to crack...I didn't know that. SWEET! (hehe look I put myself back into the conversation somehow!)
Hehe I like all of those in some sort of pairing or another (I wont even say...Because I have am a wrong person D: ). Those are the type of characters I love as well, glad someone understands!
lol so then we'll lay off the Hermione questions, got it!
(JK what are those hair things in your head if you don't mind telling me...The red chop sticks or whatever)

OMG HUGE SPIDER!! My mom was refusing to kill it until I stopped screaming, I was refusing to stop screaming until she killed it. It was rather uncomfortable for both of us. It probably wouldn't have been such a huge deal (I mean it wasn't too bad, size of a quarter only, but fat and brown with orange legs) if it hadn't dangled down and almost into my face as I tried to walk into the doorway to my room. It guarded me from my own room!!!
AnYhOw... xd
Know what's interesting? To date that is probably my best relationship, most boring, but most good memories. Sad right? I haven't even had a relationship in over 3 years now, that one was my first and I had 2 since it, both were complicated and problematic (and all lasted less than half a year, I think 3 - 4 months for the 2nd and 4-5 months for the 3rd). I don't even date now, not that I don't want to, I just don't meet people. I is alone crying . haha, it's ok though, I think. I just try to focus on other things.
Almost everything leads to crack as a general rule, but some are more interesting than others. Plus the fun thing with crack is you can crack the situation rather than the characters...so it can be totally in character and be crack and still work. But yea hate/hate relationships as a general rule provide for the best crack I think.
Hehehe, I don't want to shut the door on anything so if there are specific questions I will answer them/entertain them/encourage them/etc etc, I'm just not going to open the door myself on that. I dunno, it's just less straight forward how I feel about Hermione as a character, more complicated. Sometimes it's more stress/work to chat upon then fun - sometimes not. But I just never know going in where I'll end up. Could I be more vague? You bet! ^_~
Haha...I don't mind at all, and they are exactly what you said - they are red chopsticks, that's what they are called - well specifically, they are Red Lacquer Chopsticks. You can get them at GI (Global Imports) in the Shops for 1080 Gold (they also come in gold and black). Alot of what I'm wearing comes from GI - the chopsticks, the Qipao and the silk shoes (I like GI) ^_^.
