Stolen from everyone and their dog

Name your 10 absolutely favorite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms:

01. Clow/Yuuko (CLAMP) (granted, I'm sort of hating it as well, but can't leave it out)
02. Touya/Yukito (CLAMP) (all of them OK, no, not fond of Clow country anymore, but let's include it too 'cause it says a lot about me)
03. Kenshin/Kaoru (Rurouni Kenshin)
04. Lina/Gourry (Slayers)
05. Ling/Lan Fan (Fullmetal Alchemist)
06. Kohza/Vivi (One Piece)
07. Amaterasu/Ushiwaka (Okami)
08. Klavier/Ema (Ace Attorney)
09. Peony/Jade (Tales of the Abyss)
10. Howl/Sophie (Howl's Moving Castle series)

Oh, I think I can see my patterns quite well. So go ahead and have fun~

From the ones I know: GIRL TOPS.

Well, no. Sounds like a case of a coincidence since I can think of half of the het pairings not being like this. Or taking turns in bed.

Dunno, I've never thought that the personality of the gal being stronger than the guy means that she's the one in control or pwning him around.

mmmm what else... there's the TsunxZen as well? TsunxDork? Mmm...

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

What do you mean, 'zen'? Examples?

(But... well, I had Tsun x Something in the list. Didn't get to the dork part because for me to like a character a lot they must have some degree of dorkiness, and most times my OTPs are around my favorite characters. ETA: also, sometimes my favorite tsunderes ARE dorks somehow so...)

Zen part being, um. A little calmer? Not as easily angered?

That kind of attitude makes me think of Doumeki or Mori, and then I shudder to think of me shipping a tsundere with a palo character. Srsly, examples here?
