Here a meme, there a meme...

I don't do a lot of memes, but every once it a while one will pop up that is especially fun. Today I found two. So I'll be spamming my LJ with them periodically today.
I've seen this first one in a few different places already, but I finally decided to jump on in after snatching it from
calturner.
Since I have two fandoms that I follow most, I did one for both.
What is your One True Pairing?
BtVS -- Definitely Buffy/Spike. (Need I say more?)
D&DC -- Eric/Diana (I know it's not the favorite of others. Most go for the more widely accepted Hank/Sheila, which I also like, but what can I say? I love the romantic snark. Or the potential romantic snark, at least.)
What is your "guilty pleasure" pairing?
BtVS -- Spike/Illyria (Some authors just write them so very well. And their scenes together were some of the best of AtS S5. Plus, for me, they don't even have to be romantically linked. Just put them in a room together. Their exchanges are priceless!)
D&DC -- Hank/Diana or Venger/Sheila (Nothing beats a nice friendship-becomes-more-story or a redemption-fic for a great guilty pleasure.)
What is one pairing you absolutely refuse to ship?
BtVS -- Buffy/Riley, I guess. (I just found them so durned dull.)
D&DC -- Hmm. That's tougher. Depending on how it's written, just about any ship would be a really interesting read. But I guess . . . Dungeon Master/Uni? (*cringe*)
What is one pairing you're interested in, but don't ship?
BtVS -- Maybe the other way around – pairings that I ship, but am not all that interested in. I like Willow/Tara, Willow/Oz, Angel/Cordy, Xander/Anya, . . . but when compared with my OTP, I probably wouldn't be interested enough to really focus on them in a story. But since the question was something I'm interested in, but don’t ship, let's see some Andrew/Kennedy! *evil grin*
D&DC -- Samwise Baggins wrote a fic called The Neverending Story, which paired Diana with Dekion. Not a combination I would have imagined, but really a brilliantly written tale!
What is one pairing you used to ship, but don't any more?
BtVS -- Angel/Buffy . . . then I watched "Fool for Love" . . . .
D&DC -- Hank/Diana (Though it's less of a ship and more of that "guilty pleasure" thing we discussed. *G*)
What is one pairing you could be convinced to ship if it was done properly?
BtVS -- Angel/Cordy (I like this ship, but not enough to read a whole story about them. It would really have to be gooood.)
speakr2customrs also turned me onto the very interesting relationship that is Riley/Harmony.
D&DC -- Sheila/Venger (Again, the guilty pleasures must be done right to be of any interest. I'm usually more for Hank/Sheila, but, when done properly, Venger's redemption at her hands can make for one heckofa story.)
