yet more parings that never were

Concept and term cf. Livia. Both slash and het represented. They're too obscure, off-kilter, or squicky to garner any fandom attention, but I find them both plausible and strangely compelling.

  1. Superman/Batman
  2. Henry Bendix/Rose Tattoo (Stormwatch)
  3. David Lynch/Kyle MacLaughlan
  4. Nick Cave/Blixa Bargeld
  5. Ferris/Cameron (Ferris Bueller's Day Off)
  6. Cameron/Sloan (Ferris Bueller's Day Off)
  7. Mick/Johnny (If...)
  8. Jenny Sparks/John Constantine (The Authority/Hellblazer)
  9. Oz/John Constantine (Buffy/Hellblazer)
  10. Nanda/Princess Langwidere (Ozma of Oz)
  11. Kenny Baker/Jack Purvis (Star Wars RPF)
  12. Princess Leia/Mon Mothma (Star Wars)
  13. Ethan/Willow (Buffy)
  14. Inga/Sophie (Harsh Realm)
  15. Frank Booth/Ben (Blue Velvet)
  16. Frank Booth/Jeffrey Beaumont (Blue Velvet)
  17. Special Agent Dale Cooper/Sheriff Harry S. Truman (Twin Peaks)
  18. Andy/Red (The Shawshank Redemption)

And, for nostalgia's sake: these next two are my zero-point slash pairings. Both are quasi-canonical yet ultra-obscure, because I have always been consistent that way. If you recognize both pairings and they also strike you as incredibly slashy, we obviously share some sort of kink wavelength. It follows that we need to talk. Really.

  1. Bill Haydon/Jim Prideaux (Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy)
  2. Christopher Isherwood/Bernhard Landauer (Goodbye to Berlin)
