Hey, it's your Trek anon! I must admit, I wanted Picard and Crusher to get it on before I even really knew what that meant; but honestly I ALSO felt that way about Picard and Guinan, Picard and that one thief lady he met on vacation one time, and so on. So maybe that's less shipping and more my love for Sir Patrick. Otherwise, I always felt that Deanna and Riker had too much history to make it work long term, if that makes any sense? (1/2)

Trek anon (2/2) Data & Geordi always seemed either like they were together to me—they share the "cool uncle" custody of Wesley!—my favorite fic of them together is Metadata by [archiveofourown.org profile] winged_mammal. For some reason I have a lot of trouble with seeing Worf in any relationship at all—not that I see him as gay/ace/otherwise; more that he never seemed to be the relationship type to me for some reason?


*waves* HELLO TREK ANON. Sorry for the long radio silence! IT'S NOT YOU IT'S ME. D: /o\ Anyway! Your Trek feelings are great and you should feel great, just fyi.

Picard and Crusher just had such *clenches fist* IDEK, GLORIOUSLY RESTRAINED DEEP-RUNNING FEELS, GOD, HELP ME. But absolutely every scene with Picard and Guinan in it is pure gold, totally, and basically yes, you are right, he's shippable with a ridiculous number of people. Sir Patrick is impossible to resist. :D

As for Deanna and Riker, I do get what you mean! I like them both so much and "I'm still into them but they're over me" sads work for me so powerfully that I can still go for it most of the time—but their friendship is so delightful and fond, I would read many thousands of words of them platonically navigating shipfic tropes with sighs and wry smiles and comfortable good humor. <3 So, yeah, totally fair assessment, and I love them with a & just as much as with a /. :D

And oh, thank you for the rec! *adds to to-read list* Data/Geordi is definitely a "pick-me-up on a bad day pairing"—all the fic I've read for them has been so heartwarming, IDK, they just make me so happy! <3

I don't have any particularly strong shippy feelings about Worf myself—I like him and Jadzia fine, partly because they had some great moments and partly because I LOVE JADZIA SFM, but yeah, I can't say I find myself looking for lots of Worf shipfic most of the time. (My Spock feelings may have given away that I love characters feeling conflicted about relationships vs. cultural expectations, which you do sometimes get in Worf shipfic, and I enjoy that a lot! But that's not necessarily about the ships themselves, as such.)

If you had to pick: Clark/Lois or Clark/Diana?

Oh, gosh, anon, TOUGH CALL. I like all three of these characters so much that it's pretty easy for me to see what they might love about each other, if you follow me—I love that DCEU Lois has Clark's number so early, knows what his deal is and participates in so much of his story in MoS; but DCEU Diana and Clark have a lot in common, having reasons to feel out of place in the modern human world, knowing there's so much about themselves that they can't share or explain to most people! (And, uh, tbh I ship the third side of that triangle also. :D) I can see my way clear to shipping either with relative ease, and my impression is that Clark/Diana is rarer? So if I had to pick just one to write or read, it might be that one, and that would be why—like, the vast majority of Superman canons already are Clark/Lois, so I can get that anytime! Whereas Clark/Diana, not so much.
