Will try more later.

Gah. ASCII!Fail! Oh, well. I tried. Guess I needed to stick some html in there, but I just don't have the energy. :-/

Nope. I've never actually watched the X Files, damn lack of opportunity.

6. Rick/Ilsa?

[identity profile] purple_bug.livejournal.com 2009-01-24 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
That one's misleading, yeah :o) But no, it's a Casablanca reference in relation to another pairing.

[identity profile] elyssadc.livejournal.com 2009-01-24 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude. These are HARD. I'm going to go with Kaylee/Serenity for 11.

And I'm thinking one of them is Aeryn/John. Either 6 or 15.

[identity profile] purple_bug.livejournal.com 2009-01-24 07:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes on 11 :oD

I didn't realise they were actually hard. Maybe it's cos I wrote them. But pretty much all of them have pretty defining clues. Often involving (fairly well known) quotes. For example, 1 and 12 are in the same large fandom, and are both entirely made up of paraphrased quotes from the people involved

And no, no Farscape ones in there. There's some random/slightly-obscure fandoms in there, including TP (see one of the fics I wrote), Dead Like Me, All Creatures Great and Small, Jonathan Creek and The Dresden Files. Hope that helps a little :o)

Guess's:

1: Tara and Willow

2: James/Callum - ACGaS

3: Arthur/William - Einstein and Eddington

5: could be Torchwood related

6: I so wanna say Lister/Rimmer

7; James/Triston - AcgaS (Wild stab)

13; Doctor/Any and all companions :)

Ok, I'm done

[identity profile] purple_bug.livejournal.com 2009-01-24 08:01 pm (UTC)(link)
1 - yay!
2 - haven't met Callum yet, so no.
3 - nope
5 - no Torchwood here :o)
6 - there is Lister/Rimmer, but it's not this one! The Casablanca thing would be more Kryten/Camille, anyway :oD
7 - yep! And do you know how happy I am that someone picked up on the 'mad conductor' clue? :oD
13 - uh, no

14. Dresden/Murphy?

13. Rose/Mickey?

[identity profile] purple_bug.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
14 yes, 13 no :o) Glad someone got the Dresden Files one :oD

[identity profile] tptigger.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
You dropped too big a hint, you know. :) 9 is John/Chris Harding from OSTP :)

[identity profile] purple_bug.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Well yeah, but who else would it be if I was giving you a nudge about it? :oD I'd prefer they were got on obvious hints rather than not got on obscure clues.
ext_10830: Jewellrey (Apparently!)

Ok, well, everyone's already got the ones I know, but erm, I reckon... the Hollyoaks one 13 is actually Clyde/Luke from The Sarah Jane Adventures

The other one (4) is Dead Like Me and it's Mason/Daisy.


AMIRIGHT?

[identity profile] purple_bug.livejournal.com 2009-01-26 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Correct! :oD
