I still owe some character love meme, and I'm working on it

[taotrooper]

But meanwhile, here's something proven useful.

Comment with the name/title of a fandom I'm aware of, no matter how obvious you think the answers will be, and I'll reply you with the relationships -canon or not- from it I ship. Just one comment for fandom so it won't get messy, as I'll link all threads in the main post. You can comment as many times as you want to, though. Also, you're free to reply in subthreads and ask me why I ship or don't ship something. Just be reasonable and don't act wanky.

But here's the interesting part: I'm linking this in my profile page, and I might re-reply to anyone months later, when my ship preferences changed. I'll compromise not to delete my previous replies, no matter how embarrassing, so we can see how much I've changed with time. However, I'll be free to freeze any subthread I want to, when my opinion on it is not valid anymore. Also, I'll have this meme going forever, so don't hesitate to return to it any time and ask.

For platonic ones, read this post.

Who, me? My family never taught me "values" on not marrying cousins. I was never taught whether it was right or wrong. It didn't help that my first cousins were all adults when I was a kid and all lived in different cities. All my cousins' children could be my brothers, and I don't know any of them well.

I think in Venezuela first cousin weddings are taboo. I didn't know it was something "dirty" until I attended school. However, I'm not sure if they think it's wrong because it's their ideosyncrasy (sp?) or because they copied that from the American culture.

But I don't see nothing wrong with cousin weddings since I was never brainwashed against it. Just like I never thought people saw homosexuals as "icky eww" until sixth grade. That's because my mom was a flight attendant, and a lot of her male co-workers and friends were effeminate or plainly gay.

Ah, I just wasn't sure. ^_^ I've seen a lot of people in fandom saying cousins = incest and I can never remember who's who... (Especially in the HP fandom. Harry: Maybe Tonks loved Sirius! Fandom: EWWWW! Laurus: It's legal in England!)

Also, and off-topic: I love your Fantasia avatars. ♥

It's funny, since most of what I've seen of the HP fandom is pro-first cousin. Particularly the [insert Sirius or Regulus]/[insert Black sister] smutfics, which ironically wouldn't have bothered the relatives considering the family tree...

I know, they're the cutest thing! I snatched them from the same person. There were also more pegasus (pegasi?) and unicorns, centaur flirting, little angels, and one of the dancing goldfish.

Except if you're a Harmonian. They're anti-cousin, because OMG Harry and Ginny are both related to the Black family so they're related and OMG incest is ev0l!
