It's doing the rounds, thought I'd steal it :o) I had quite a bit of fun making these up, and I'm surprised that less of them are from Who than I anticipated.

Describe them in less than 15 words.
Have your flist guess the OTP.

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)

Well, I probably think they are hard because I don't know any of the shows you just mentioned. Which means, I might be out of the game already. Damn it.

Damn. Well, 2, 6 and 13 are the remaining Whoniverse pairings. And the large fandom I mentioned is BtVS.

I have this weird dilemma between wanting to be tricksy and wanting people to actually guess them.

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

Is Frobisher one half of #6? Because that would be hilarious.

And I watched BtVS but I can't even begin to guess any of them.

[purple_bug.livejournal.com]

Yep, one half is Frobisher :oD If you've heard The Maltese Penguin...

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

Frobisher/Francine! Oh my god, that's ADORABLE!
