Jan. 26th, 2004 06:01 pmOmg! Have SEmagic! It owns my soul. I worship ye, Cori!
I guess, in return, I should pimp some OTPs for the OTP week. But... I have so many! *is torn*
Well, let's see...
Ray Kowalski/Fraser from Due South. Why? Er... now, this is going to be sort of hard, as I have never actually seen the series. Yes, that is correct: I have never seen DS, yet I read the slash.
So, why are they an OTP? First of all, everything Speranza has ever written is brilliant, and what converted me to a fandom I wasn't even aware of. Secondly, the quotes from the series itself are just DAMNING. Seriously. EG:
Ray: May I ask you something? Do you find me attractive?
Bert: Oh, I wouldn't say attractive.
Rico: No, cute maybe.
Gladys: I'd say well-favoured.
Ray: Did I ask you?
Bert: Sorry, I thought you were asking all of us.
Ray: Well, I wasn't, so zip. [to Fraser] Well? D'you find me attractive?
Fraser: In what sense?
Ray: In the sense of... you know, being a woman.
Fraser: Do I think you're an attractive woman?
Ray: No. No. I'm not the woman. You're the woman.
Fraser: I'm the woman.
Gladys: No, I'm the woman.
Ray: But up.
Bert: Well, she is.
Ray: Well, I know she's a woman, I'm asking Fraser to pretend that he's a woman. Okay?
Gladys: Oh. Can you do that, dear?
Fraser: Well, I have done that, yes.
Rico: So have I. It was rather fun. Heh heh.
Ray: Look, you three zip, and you, you pretend you're a woman, okay? You find me attractive?
Fraser: Very much so, yes.
Ray: You're not just saying that?
Fraser: Well, I'm not really qualified to judge, Ray.
There we go. Subtext? Does it even count as subtext when it's that blatant? So, for transcripts, go here; for quotes, go here; and for fic, go here. There we are, my OTP pimpin' for the day. *grin*
