Bea's Top 10 Love Teams (2012)

I thought I'd make one of these again, since it's been two years since the original one.

(ah, back when I was addicted to the squiggly, which is like the universal fangirl symbol)

Anyway, here goes. As usual, there's commentary. :)

1.) Jily (AKA L/J)
     James Potter and Lily Evans from Harry Potter. To attempt to describe how much I love this ship would be useless. I've been shipping them for two straight years now, starting roughly two months after I wrote my original "Top 10 Love Teams" list. I'd always accepted them as a couple since the first Harry Potter books, but it wasn't until the third one that they started piquing my interest. Sirius Black played a big role in this, since he became my favourite character, and I started getting curious about the Marauders. By the time I read Snape's Worst Memory, I was sold. There is just something so perfect about Jily, that you can't ever not ship it again once you have started. It has love, hate, passion, humor, and tragedy. It's the canon of all cannons. I mean, he was a chaser, and she hated him, and everything is just a big puddle of feels.

2.) Percabeth
     Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase from Percy Jackson. They were my first ship ever. I shipped them before I even knew what 'shipping' was. Back then, I called it 'supporting a pairing'. We all wanted them to end up together since the first book, and the underwater kiss on The Last Olympian was long awaited.

3.) Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy (AKA EliDarcy)
     From Pride and Prejudice, of course. I'm a sucker for love-hate stories, and theirs was like Chocolate Vanilla pudding. With cherry on top. When Darcy described her as 'tolerable, but not handsome enough to please me', I exploded right then and there.

4.) Amy Pond and Rory Williams
     From Doctor Who. Confession Time: I shipped Amy and Eleven really hard before I turned over to the other side. At first, I wasn't sure if Amy really loved Rory back, but 'The Girl Who Waited' removed all my doubts.

5.) Channy
     Sonny Monroe and Chad Dylan Cooper from Sonny With A Chance. Some childhood things just stick to you, and some feelings (or in this case, pairings) just don't ever go away or fade. Good? Good. Fine? Fine!


6.) Tokka
     Toph Beifong and Sokka from Avatar. Toph was my favourite character, and her very obvious crush on Sokka was very cute. I love Suki and all, but Sokka, in my opinion, should have ended up with Toph.

7.) Rankane
     Ranma and Akane from Ranma1/2. Another one of my childhood fetishes. Also a love-hate thing. This time, it's both of them who keep denying their blatant love for the other. Another plus, they're fiances!

8.)Peeniss
     Peeta Mellark and Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games. I remember when everyone had a hard time looking for a ship name, and everyone settled on 'Peeniss' even if it was... well, you know. It would also sound awkward if shippers said 'I love Peeniss!' Anyway, I can't understand why other people like Gale and Katniss together, but I totally respect their opinion. Still, Peeta was the guy with the bread, the dandelion in the spring. How can you not?

9.) Sydrian
     Sydney Sage and Adrian Ivashkov from Bloodlines, which is the pin-up series of Vampire Academy. Smart girl meets Bad Vampire Boy Who Got Used By Good Vampire Girl makes a wonderful story. It was hard to decide between this ship and Peeniss-- which should have gone higher on my list, but I ultimately chose Peeniss. It was a close fight, though.

10.) Zammie
      Zach Goode and Cammie Morgan from Gallagher Girls. Cammie is cool, and Zach is Goode. Enough said.

Harry Potter

I've finished reading Harry Potter book 7. It was epic, cool, awesome, unexpected, "suspense-y", crazy, happy, sad, serious, romance-y, tragic, and a lot more indescribable words. The series is so AWESOME and I read the last book wide-eyed. I really, really, really, really, really, reallyX1000 love it!!! :)). I love the horcrux thing and also the hallow thing. Horcruxes or Hallows? The decision is SO hard to make! I would personally choose Hallows because, well, I'm like Dumbledore. We both love power. So, yeah, I think I WOULD make the same mistake as Dumbledore's. On the other hand, choosing Horcruxes would also be wise... (DUH! But I was thinking these things while I was reading the part wherein Harry chooses between Horcruxes and Hallows, so I wouldn't know the WHOLE story yet... Plus, admit it, looking for Hallows would be a lot more mysterious, fun, suspense-y, etc.) I mean, it's the only way to REALLY kill Voldemort (Yeah, I'm not afraid to use that name! :P), right? But even if they do destroyall the horcruxes, Voldemort's power won't change. He'll still be as powerful, right? It wouldn't hurt to have a REALLY powerful wand, a cloak that renders you completely invisible, and a stone that can bring back the dead, right? Hallows or Horcruxes? :3

I also love how Dudley "thanked" Harry before they left. It was SO sweet (For Dudley, of course). Dudley ACTUALLY had some gratitude for Harry and I know, deep inside, deep deep down inside, he knew he would miss Harry. I love how Kreacher became nice and loved for the first time after a long time. I love how Harry gave him the necklace and he turned pleasant (I love the food, too... :) ). And I loved it when Ron RETURNED. It was SOOO heartwarming and SOOO sweeeeeeeeeeet!!! xD xD. I love the plot, the mood, and the unraveling of the story/stories. Oh, and I love brave Neville and Luna.

Poor Petunia (Yes, I actually pity her). She was jealous of her sister but couldn't do anything because she was a "stupid" muggle. I love the whole background on Snape's life. (Sorry but...) I love how Lily "dumped" (not really dumped, but I LIKE it that way) him for James (not really... it was just a coincidence) . Oh, and I love the love-hate-relationship between James and Lily (because, I know, deep inside, Lily LOVES James. She looooovveess James. Oh yeah.)

I also love it when Harry manages to escape at the last second from Voldemort and he (Voldemort) get's SO angry.

Oh, and I like Narcissa Malfoy. (I always did).

I loved it when Harry goes-- "Yes, I dare!" :)). And the line-- "I am the true master of the Elder Wand!" and then...

"AVADA KEDAVRA"

"EXPELLIARMUS"

Expelliarmus WINS! :D

And I love how the wand chooses the wizard, not the other way around.

Death's I hated throughout the series the most:

1.) Sirius (Favorite Character, much!)

2.) Hedwig (Poor Hedwig.. :( )

3.)Lupin (I love all Marauders... except for Wormtail.. eer. that WIMP. :/ )

4.) James and Lily (Poor them.. )

5.) Fred (I still wish he was alive)

6.) Dumbledore (well.... not really since he planned his death)

I started loving the series since book 3. (The one about Sirius)

What I thought while reading..:

1.) Book 1 ( Boooring. I thought Harry Potter was supposed to be the best book ever! Percy Jackson is WAY better than this)

2.) Book 2 (Less boring than book 1, at least. Still not exceptional)

3.) Book 3 (Genius. I love the twist. Awww! Sirius was NICE after all! I hate wormtail. :/)

4.) Book 4 (SO GENIUS! Love it! I am now a Harry Potter fan! Since book 3, actually)

5.) Book 5 (I hate. I mean, It's genius, but why did SIRIUS DIE?? And I hate Umbridge.. And I hate it because nobody believes Harry.. :/)

6.) Book 6 (I love it! I love it! :)). Harry's a little full of himself. I LOVE IT! haha. :) It's sad, but hopeful.)

7.) Book 7 (I think you've read about what I love about 7 from.. ABOVE)

Favorite Characters: (Aside from Harry, Hermione, and Ron, because EVERYBODY loves them. :P)

1.) Sirius

2.) Hedwig

3.) Fred and George

4.) James, Lupin

5.) Luna

6.) Dumbledore

7.) Neville

Favorite Tragic Stories:

1.) Snape-Loves-Lily-But-She-Dumped-Him-For-James. LOL.

2.) Dumbledore-killed-his-sister-for-a-hallow

3.) James-and-Lily-die

4.) Petunia-got-jealous-of-her-sister

I AM A POTTERHEAD!

XOXO
