133. Fandom Unicorns

It's Valentine's Day! Or close enough. Anika and Liz settle in with chocolate, champagne and a list of their favourite OTPs. And OT3s. And … look, we have so many ships, we're practically a navy. Picard/Crusher: our first OTP Gwyn/Dal: #OTPCatboots Fifty years and all it took to make Anika ship Spock/Chapel was letting Christine have a personality Anika's favourite Star Trek rarepair will SHOCK and SCANDALIZE Janeway/Kashyk shippers: there were dozens of us in 2000! Has Janeway/Paris become a rarepair? That's definitely not going to stop Anika from shipping it! (We respectfully disagree with this essay.) Janeway/Chakotay: Liz knows she shouldn't ship it but she cannot stop "Speaking of war crimes…" (Or, how to segue into Cornwell/Lorca) Anika has a LOT of femslash OTPs Janeway/Seven has gotten more complicated now we're adults Sometimes, shipping problematic things is … good Vulcan polyamory is logical Big shout out to the Captain Georgiou/Commodore Paris shippers Please go and read Anika's Palpatine-as-the-sex-candle-ghost fic, it's so much better than the premise deserved We can ship Kathryn Janeway with everyone, and we will ship Kathryn Janeway with everyone (We will also ship Katrina Cornwell with most people and we are not sorry)
