I was tagged by poplitealqueen – who knows what she did. (choosing only 5?? ONLY 5?? THIS. WAS. SO. HARD.) 

Pick 5 OTPS, before you read the questions, then answer them, tag people when you’re done.

– Legolas/Gimli (hands up anyone who is surprised, oh look, nobody).

– Bilbo Baggins/Thorin Oakenshield

– Bruce Banner/Happiness 

– Sam Vimes/Sybil Ramkin

– Bucky Barnes/Steve Rogers

1. Do you remember the episode/movie you started shipping 5?
It’s only a small film, a sequel of sorts, you may not have heard of it…

2. Have you read fan fiction about 2?HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[Where is question 3???] It was within us all alooooong!

4. If 3 was to suddenly break up what would be your reaction?*weeping tears of purest fire* you mean it was canon? Has it EVER been canon? PROTECT BRUCE BANNER 2K15

5. Why is one so important?
Because they finally heal the breach between their two peoples. Because Gimli promises during the war that ‘where Legolas goes, I go’ – and he keeps that promise to the end of his life. Because Gimli is the first Dwarf to sail into the west. Because Legolas stayed until Gimli was the last of the Fellowship, but could not bear to sail and leave him behind. 

Because they are also scorchingly hot. Poetry and culture and magic, strength and grace and height and secrets and hair (goddamn, SO MUCH HAIR). Piercings. Tattoos. Flexibility. Muscles.

This is all very important to consider; i hope you are all paying attention.

6. Is 4 a serious ship or a funny ship
Both. They are both funny people – or can be. But together Sam and Sybil are pretty much the perfect companions and supports for each other. I adore their relationship SO MUCH.

7. Out of all the ships which has the most chemistry?
Gigolas (in the books, easily!). In the films? Bagginshield. 

Bruce/Happiness is but a pipe-dream, sadly

8. Out of all the ships which has the strongest bond?
G I G O L A S

9. How many times have you read/watched 2’s fandom?
Sigh. Enough to be pissed off about certain tropes (oh hi Dain, yeah, talkin bout you again Dain, why are you always being written as an asshole when you are a stand-up guy, jeez)

10. Which ship has lasted longer? canonically?
*screams into the night* GIIGOLAS Sam/Sybil, I suppose, as the rest aren’t strictly speaking canon. 

11. How many times, if ever have 5 broken up?
Oh, they’re on a break right now. It was a really dramatic sort of scene, out in public and everything. Tcch. 😉

12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse which ship would make it out alive?
Oooooh. To be honest, I think they all would! Thorin and Bilbo begin a resistance (plus elven swords prove very effective tyvm). Gimli and Legolas have a competition with Steve and Bucky as to how many zombies they can eliminate. Bruce is fine, naturally. He’s smashing merrily away. Sybil is terrifying with a sword in her hands, and Sam is the dirtiest, canniest fighter in Ankh-Morpork for a reason. 

13. Did 4 have to hide their relationship for any reason?
Nope.

14. Is 5 still together?
*muffled sob*

15. Is 1 canon?
Any way you look at it, they belong together.

16. If all five ships were put into a couples hunger games which couple do you think will win?
OH NO YOU DON’T. 

Oh goddamn. Bruce. Bruce would be the only one left alive.

But he wouldn’t be happy.

17. Has anyone tried to sabotage 5’s relationship?
HAIL HYDRA.

18. Which ship do you defend to death and beyond?
GIGOLAS

19. Have you ever spent hours a day going through 3’s tumblr page?
Nope, though I do check Bruce’s tag every now and then.

20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you had to pick one of the ships to break up for good which would sink?
Oh damn, there’s no Question 20, what a shame. 

If you feel like procrastinating, here’s a meme thingy! Anybody, feel free to do it and say I tagged you! 🙂
