I've really missed doing these, but usually I refrain from posting them because... well, because there's a lot less people (and a lot less active people) in my DW circle than there were on my LJ flist, and I wasn't sure what kind of reception, if any, I'd get. But then I ran across this one, and, well, it doesn't hurt to try?

Name a character and I’ll tell you my:
OTP
Second choice
Fluffy pairing
Angst pairing
NoTP
BroTP
Polyship
Weirdest pairing

Don't feel like you just need to limit yourself to one character. Like I said, I really do like doing these, and it's been a long time since the last time I did one. Any fandom I know is fine.

I probably would never have even thought of Buffy/Tara, but then there was that one scene in season... six, I think?, where Buffy confides in Tara and Tara was comforting and understanding, and ugh, it was just so cute. That moment alone sold me on the pairing.

For Lizzie:

OTP: Darcy/Elizabeth.
Second choice: Caroline Bingley/Elizabeth. Not in a forever kind of way, though. It kind of has some of the same appeal as Buffy/Cordelia to me, except there’d be much, much less goodwill between them.
Fluffy pairing: Probably Darcy/Elizabeth, if we’re talking post-canon.
Angst pairing: I liked the angsty Darcy/Elizabeth bits in canon, if that counts?
NoTP: ...I feel like Mr. Collins would be too obvious of an answer here. Hm. Bingley/Lizzie, maybe? Even if I got past how that might affect Jane and Lizzie’s relationship, I just can’t see them as being very well suited for one another.
BroTP: I love her friendship with Jane so much.
Polyship: None, I think.
Weirdest pairing:We’re getting into crossover territory here, but I once saw someone mention the possibility of Lizzie/Elizabeth Swann and I'd definitely be into that.

Re: Lizzie Bennett/Elizabeth Swann - wouldn't they think they were long-lost identical twins, if we're talking about the Kiera Knightley Lizzie? ;)

...I didn't even think about that. Well, I already threw it under the "weird" category; now it can really earn that name. ;)

Though honestly, I'm a little face-blind (not to an extreme extent; just enough to sometimes make watching movies confusing and casual run-ins with people awkward), so I wouldn't have ever realized that they were played by the same person on my own. That is, I did know that Keira Knightley played both before this? But I wouldn't have ever realized it if her name hadn't been on the DVD covers.
