Hi guys I’m back from my travels and all I brought you was this
lousy shipping news. Seriously though, I’m a bit out of the loop of all things
fandom due to lack of Internet but I’ve done my best to catch up on all the new
television and spoilers. So let’s see how I do then shall we. I’ve got
Winchester angst, Vampire love triangle trouble, a new magical lesbian ship,
good times for Klainers and of course some Teen
Wolf gossip.
Where to begin? Well you should know that by now, the answer is
almost always magical lesbians and Once Upon a Time has done it again.
This was the week that Belle met Mulan, and sparks did fly. Two fierce ladies
hunting a beast together it doesn’t get much better than that. Don’t worry
guys, I’m still firmly on team Murora and Rumbelle but that’s okay because they
were both single when they had their little tryst. Anyway I’m pretty sure it
was one sided, Mulan (being the lady lover that she is) clearly had a thing for
our lovely Belle but unfortunately Belle’s still hung up on Rumplestiltskin.
Speaking of Rumbelle, they were having an excellent week until
everything went to hell at the end (urgh why) and they weren’t the only couple
on the rocks. It looks likes there is trouble in the paradise that is The
Charming’s marriage. They are fighting over whether or not they have earned
some peace at last. Charming wants to get his home back whereas Snow is more
than happy to stay where they have the penicillin… only time will tell how
whether they can make it through the rough patch.
Seeing as we’re already in angstville we may as well get Supernatural
over and done with because it’s been an emotional rollercoaster as usual.
Actually if you can see anything through the tears this week had a lot going
for shippers – no matter what your OTP is. The Winchesters are still dealing
with the fallout of their summer romances and it’s finally come to a head with Sam
and Dean being forced to confront Amelia and Benny respectively (seriously
though the way they are paralleling these stories it’s almost impossible not to
read them as some kind of romantic relationship). The brothers chose each other
of course because at this stage they would much rather be unhappy together than
try to be happy with anyone else.
On the other side of things Destiel was going strong as Dean latched
onto Cas during Sam’s absence. Dean’s face went from annoyed to proud to
concerned in a matter of seconds and if that doesn’t say married then I don’t
know what does. Then there was the fact that Cas was determined to get Sam and bring
him back into the fold (not sure if Sassy or Cas shipping Wincest or
Wincestiel) and when Cas was having his breakdown Sam was rather worried
(definitely Sassy). Of course then the end broke us into a thousand pieces and
we realized there was no time for romance because there is hunting to be done.
On the topic of supernatural romances let’s talk Vampire
Diaries. My beloved Rebekah returned with the help of her new
girlfriend April and she was a little restless after being dead for so long, so
she called a little breakfast club meeting at the school to catch up on all the
gossip… and boy did she have a lot to catch up on. Not only did Stefan and
Elena break up but she slept with Damon (who she also happens to be sired to).
Rebekah forced Elena to tell Stefan how she really felt – she still loves him
but she’s no longer in love with him, she’s in love with Damon. OUCH. After
fleeing Rebekah’s clutches Elena decides to tell Damon how she really feels
about him – and Damon who is not used to being loved decides sirebond be dammed
and tells Elena to come to him… something tells me this isn’t going to end
well.
In happier news things are looking up for Lizzy/Darcy shippers (The
Lizzie Bennett Diaries) because a couple of episodes ago Gigi Darcy
achieved something the rest of us shippers can only dream about… she locked
her OTP in a room together. Gigi Darcy is now a shipper mascot because that
was amazing (she is definitely my hero)!
Seriously though if you are not watching The Lizzie Bennett Diaries you are wrong.
Heading into spoiler territory now, so if you want to remain pure I
suggest you turn back now.
Things are looking good for Klaine (Glee) fans… last ShippingNews I posted his tweets about the couple well there has been more news since
then including a picture (above) and a video that has shippers shaking in
excitement. Fair enough too because it’s not often that your OTP gets a steamy
make out session as well as a romantic duet (especially if they’re a queer
couple). Enjoy it while it lasts Klainers, it’s only mid season.
Finally let’s talk Teen Wolf because I just can’t help
myself (it’s a problem I should probably get some help). Anyway there hasn’t
been much shippy news coming from the MTV camp recently but as they only just
started shooting again after the Christmas break so I’m sure it’s only a matter
of time.
There was this tweet by Ian Bohan:
Hmm, what could Derek, Stiles, Scott, Creepy Peter, Papa Argent and
Sheriff Stilinski possibly be doing in the woods together? I would love to hear
your ideas? Let me know what you think in the comments.
Personally I’m hoping that Papa Argent crashed a Sterek family bbq
but it’s probably more likely some kind of supernatural threat… the tweet has
sparked theories as to whether or not the Sheriff is finally in on all things
werewolves. I don’t think it’s likely but like I always say, you never can tell
with Teen Wolf.
If you’re feeling the lack of Teen
Wolf in you’re life, remember to join me for my epic re-watch… we’re up to
episode 3 this week.
Well my fellow shippers, that’s all for me this week. I promise I
will be more up to date with the popular culture world by next week but I can
always use some help so send any tips or ideas to me on Twitter, Tumblr or
Facebook.
Keep on shipping!
