Of Swords and Parasols

...that a certain trend among first meetings seems to influence my shipping tendencies.

  
I'm sure there are many more that aren't immediately coming to mind.

You know what?  I have decided that I am cursed, CURSED I say, when it comes to Jensen Ackles and shipping.  Dark Angel?  I started shipping Alec/Asha in the first ep of season 2 where he took her gun and went "nice..."  *long glance* "...gun" and then left while she stood there with a "what just happened?" look on her face, then I was absolutely GIDDY when it looked like they might happen midseason and then she just kinda...vanished.  I guess maybe the Max/Logan shippers hated her?  (Well...I'm a Max/Logan shipper too, but it's not like Asha was ever really a threat or anything...)  Smallville?  Lana's boyfriend.  Meaning not only could I NOT ship, but that it had to go badly for him no matter what.  And now there's Dean/Jo in Supernatural, and I don't get to keep Jo because heaven forbid either perfectly straight, healthy, 20-something brother actually be interested in a guy...it gets in the way of the non-existant slash and cannot be allowed.

BAH!

Seriously, how do you not love her?  She's so cute and fun(outside and inside)
