Shipping Meme Day Twenty-Seven
May. 27th, 2014 09:00 pmAnother couple you shipped a long time ago:
I'll go with my first major slash pairing here, since my first ship was Illyria/Wes. For a while, I was a little scared of slash, in that I'd read it if it concerned a character I liked (i.e. Wesley) and was PG or lower because how could it hurt me? But eventually I did start reading higher ratings. My first slash smut was for Air Force One, but that basically has no fandom beyond said fic and maybe one other, so I don't think it counts. The first pairing I went looking for fic for, had to read all the fic for, yeah sure absolutely website I am 100% over 18 bring it on, was Jeeves/Wooster. I still have loads of fond memories of that fandom.
Apropos of nothing, I totally later read an Angel crossover/fusion with Jeeves and Wooster where Wes was Angel's valet. I should track that down sometime. It was really good.
