My answers to the Valentine Meme I just posted

3.  Rarest rare pair: it’s a tie between Rowdy Yates and Jed Colby (Rawhide, Season 8) and Ryan/ Bill Meceita (film Death Rides a Horse)

4.  Popular ship I don’t get: the two men in Person of Interest.

5.  My most fluffy and happy ship: it’s a tie between the two eponymous characters of Alias Smith and Jones, andJoe Billy Cudlip and Ben Novak, film Beyond the Law.

6.  My most angsty ship: definitely James Flint and John Silver in Black Sails.

7. A non-canon ship that should be canon: See answer to (6) above.

8.  My oldest ship (which is also my first ship, Q. 13): between the trail boss and the tenderfoot in Delmer Daves’ film Cowboy (1958).

9. The kind of ship I’d like to have in my life: Robbie Lewis and James Hathaway, Lewis. Also, just possibly, Semir Gerkhan and Ben Jaeger, Alarm fuer Cobra 11 (German tv series).

12.  Favourite canon ship: Benton Fraser and Ray Kowalski, Due South.

16. A ship that made me realise something about myself: nearly all of them. If I have to name one, Gil Favor/ Rowdy Yates (Rawhide) when I was in my thirties.

17.  A type of ship I always go for: One where there is a degree of age and power differences.

20.  Fan-created content: some stories in some (mostly rare) fandoms.

23.  Ships I shipped because of fans: Stefan and Rash in New Blood, Flint and Silver in Black Sails.

24.  One scene I want to see happen in all my ships: A and B, whoever they are, realise that they are unequal in several areas, but are overall equal in their relationship.

26.  A ship that ended like I wanted it to: See answer 12 above.

27.  (Reworded to “A ship that did not end like I wanted it to”, because I respect other shippers) Flint/Silver and Lewis/Hathaway.
