Nabbing this from [livejournal.com profile] estelofimladris

Think of up to 10 ships you support. List them using descriptions of the characters involved rather than their names. Have your followers guess as many of the ships as they can Fandom hints will be given if asked in the replies.

1. The Rogue and the Healer (Allan and Djaq from BBC Robin Hood. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] roh_wyn)
2. The Physicist and the Doctor (Rodney McKay and Jennifer Keller from Stargate: Atlantis. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] ghettopeach. I know this one was HARD. No one in fandom liked McKay/Keller, but I didn't know that when I watched the show, so me? I LOVED it. And now there's no fic for it. *pouts*)
3. The Warrior and the Queen (Jaime and Cersei from ASoIaF. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] roh_wyn and [livejournal.com profile] jedi_of_urth)
4. The Heir and the Eldest (Matthew and Mary from Downton Abbey. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] amerally)
5. The Landless and the Lady (Guy and Marian from BBC Robin Hood. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] jedi_of_urth)
6. The General and the Empress
7. The Nurse and the Driver (Sybil and Branson from Downton Abbey. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] estelofimladris)
8. The Uncrowned and the Wisdom
9. The Spy and the Gunrunner (Michael and Fi from Burn Notice. Guessed by [livejournal.com profile] estelofimladris)
10. The Officer and the Pirate (James Norrington and Jack Sparrow from PotC. Guessed by [personal profile] sharpiefan.)

I'll update the post with answers as we go. For clues, post a comment.

Are ANY of the remaining pairings from fandoms I know? I have a guess that either or both of 6 and 8 may be from the Wheel of Time and that 7 may have something to do with Downton Abbey but I'm only guessing purely based on the wording you're using and my impressions of these fandoms, because I actually don't know anything about them. I think 10 is the only one I would have gotten if I'd only gotten here sooner...

I've never seen Stargate Atlantis, but now I can only assume that that's the physicist and the doctor by process of elimination, which a Google search leads me to believe is Samantha Carter and somebody because I only saw one physicist but about 10 "doctors" of various stripes in the character list.

I'm quite proud of myself for guessing fandoms purely on language! There was just something about the words you chose that suggested the fandoms to me. I know nothing about them, couldn't name you a character out of either fandom, but I got something right!

Well that's all I could glean from a quick Wiki on it. If there's another physicist it wasn't super obvious to me but I admit to a very quick read.... and I haven't got a CLUE who these people are!

I'm glad it was funny, anyway. If not as surprisingly clever as my vaguer guesses. :P

Oh, and are any of them in your icon? Mind you, I have no idea who's in your icon but it looks a bit shippy.

I suspected #2 might be Fringe, but I wasn't as confident about it as 6, 7 and 8.... and rightly so, apparently.
