*yawn* Somebody compared Godric/Rowena to H/Hr again, this time on the "Why is it always Rowena/Salazar?" thread over on FA.

I wonder if I'd get in trouble for saying, "Well, I see what you mean -- I realize romance and attraction weren't so much of a priority in marriage back then. I prefer to think of the Godric/Rowena pairing as having a little more spark, though."

Probably. Bah.

I like it!

It would be like shipping Harry/Molly.

Ewwww! I bet someone, somewhere does (although many of the people I like to call "weird shippers" don't really like Molly so...), and I too don't ever want to know for sure.

I've seen Harry/Molly, I think, but not so much actual shipping as writing it just to be... well... you know.

I'd start a thread just to see if there were any takers, but man, it would squick me too much to actually know.

...I'm half surprised to find that according to the master ship list, there isn't one already.

There are however... you know, I'll be nice.

Though the Salazar/Hermione one actually holds some interest for me. Or could, if done well. (Does it count as promising that the last post before it went dormant rejected the idea that they'd nickname each other?)

You know, I think I'm just going to go over to fanficrants and do yet another anti-shipping rant.

Should I hide?

[fernwithy.livejournal.com]

Nah. It just turned into a general sort of "Why do people invest themselves in stuff that's going to be self-evidently contradicted?" rant.

This is the reason I've long since abandoned the ships. They're just *insane*.
Is there a Regulus/Sirius one yet? Last time I checked, there wasn't. And that one is at least more plausible than time-travel... and c'mon, if you're going to ship Dobby/Hagrid or The Giant Squid/ANYBODY, what's a little incest?
(Salazar/Hermione? Hmm... there's probably a lot of Salazar/Tom... what about Salazar/Harry?
...it's contagious. Argh!)

[persephone-kore.livejournal.com]

Well, I'd prefer time travel to incest, frankly. Though there are plenty of incestuous ones up there.

[kazaera.livejournal.com]

Good point... incest being a rather squicky subject. I think I prefer time-travel too (except when it results in Snape/Hermione, Remus/Hermione, Sirius/Hermione, Sirius/Harry or any of those... ack!) although in certain cases, properly treated incest can be extremely angstily poignant.
