dividedbyblueThree weeks for Dreamwidth: Name three ships from three different fandoms that you like
Xena / Gabrielle (Xena: Warrior Princess)
The warrior and the bard. This is my original OTP, and will always have a place in my heart. They went through so much together, complemented each other in many ways, and loved each other deeply. It was canon that they were bound together always, even in different lifetimes, they would find each other again. The beauty of the show was also that you could see them as whatever you wanted them to be: deep friends, lovers, or something in between.
Sara Lance / Ava Sharpe (Legends of Tomorrow)
A reformed assassin and a clone from the future. One is impulsive, chaotic, and the other is ordered and strict. Their differences initially made them struggle to get along, but like in a classic ‘enemies-to-lovers’ trope, they quickly fell in love. They formed a powerful couple, taking the lead of a team of misfits to solve problems in the timeline. I always thought they fit very well together, their love story is powerfully written on the show, and is also the main couple.
Seven of Nine/ Raffi (Star Trek: Picard)
I loved them together, but I can’t deny that this was a bit of a mixed bag, due to their potential and how the show decided to deal with it. Both characters are powerful in their own right, but they are also damaged in some ways. The audio drama "No Man's Land” is actually one of the few instances where the couple is portrayed well, showcasing tender moments and moments of vulnerability in which they can heal together. The show itself was subpar in writing the couple. The viewer didn’t get to see them fall in love (only a hand-holding scene in S1 that implied they had fallen in love). In the second season, they are together but constantly bicker and argue. In the third season, they had broken up. So much more could have been done with them.
