Spock/Uhura: alshglkashgalk I love them. ♥ ♥ ♥ Mind you, I've only seen the first reboot movie, but I absolutely adore them in that. He respects and listens to her, and is wholly aware of her awesomeness! She wants to respect his boundaries, and works to do so even when it's hard for her! They communicate, and I feel like you can see them refining the way they interact with each other over the course of the movie. They are just so great, seriously. ♥
Steve/Fury: So I actually... haven't seen any movies they're in yet. *cough* But far be it from me to let ignorance keep me from forming an opinion, so let's see! They certainly hadn't ever occurred to me as a couple, but I can imagine some possibilities here. On the one hand, for some reason I could totally see an incongruously fluffy, domestic take where Steve just makes a lot of heart-eyes at him until finally Fury sighs and takes him home, and they are very adorable. But on the other hand -- OH MY GOSH THEY COULD BE TERRIFYING TOGETHER. I mean, Steve is literally a national icon, and as the head of SHIELD, Fury has like a ton of power, and suddenly now I'm imagining this really gritty, intense dynamic, where Steve is anything but naive and obviously Fury isn't either, and they're both constantly playing politics, with each other and with the entire rest of the world, and... oh my gosh. I would read that epic.
OH LOOK, IT'S PERSON OF INTEREST. :D :D :D
OMG, there is actually a fair bit of Reese/Fusco fic out there! When I came up with the idea on my own, though, before I stumbled upon any of it, I totally viewed it as a ridiculous pairing... and then promptly gave myself two plotbunnies for it. *facepalm* I don't really ship them ship them; I mean, their interactions are approximately 90% hate-flirting, even after they mellow into not actually hating each other that much, but as for an actual relationship, I don't so much see it. What I mostly tended to imagine, then, was a sufficiently desperate Reese deciding that Fusco was so morally bankrupt that Reese couldn't possibly corrupt him -- or get too attached -- and that that made him perfect. And then Fusco being like, well, okay.
Carter/Fusco, I pretty much don't ship, and that's interesting to me, because I love each of them individually, and I actually really love them as partners, or at least I did in season one. I love the sheer respect he has for her, and I love... well, basically I love the way she's totally suspicious of him, with good reason. Maybe if he were solidly established as a reformed character, and they were just really comfortable with each other -- then, I think I could ship them in an easy, low-key, we-get-along-great-and-the-sex-ain't-bad kind of way. Actually, that could be pretty adorable, now that I think about it. OMG. He would get her, like, these random romantic little gifts he'd hand over all sweaty-palmed and anxiously casual, and look adoring when she won yet another commendation, and she would -- oh my gosh. She'd tell Reese to back the hell off and stop looming at her guy, is what she'd do. And she'd insist on weekly dates -- not fancy dates, almost more like teenagers-on-a-budget dates, but they would seriously have the most fun. And yeah, I've convinced myself here, haven't I? Oh my gosh. THANKS FOR THAT, DUDE. :D
(p.s. I have not forgotten our other excellent conversation, I promise, I just keep getting distracted by things. like fanfic. and other things. but soon!)
