what a tragic waste of potential
Over here, people have been asking me for fannish top fives. And usually when I do memes like that, I don't do "follow up" posts or anything, but this one has been so fannishly pleasing that I am going to!

esso asked: top five pairings. any fandom. ever.
TOP FIVE PAIRINGS EVER (way to ask the HARD QUESTIONS) (in no particular order, because you can't make me rank them):
1. Karl/Miranda (LotRPF)
2. Ghanima and Leto II (Dune)
3. Miss Parker and Jarod (Pretender)
4. Chloe and Lex (they will take over the world) (Smallville)
5. CJ/Toby (The West Wing)
(bonus: 6. Viggo/Orli)
an unstoppable army of lizzens asked: Top five ways Lucy saved Edmund
1. when he was brought to the camp he was cold, so cold; the endless winter might have been fading, but the witch's chill had penetrated to his bones, and not even aslan's breath could warm him. he wrapped his arms around himself and trudged down the hill, and peter looked at him with such a peter face, and he flinched away from susan but lucy wouldn't be deterred: she wrapped her arms around him and tucked her head under his chin, and when he kissed the top of her hair he felt warm inside.
2. she held the bottle over his lips and allowed a drop to fall. she watched and watched and watched until aslan scolded her, but she saw him blink before she turned away and she knew he would be okay.
3. he thought perhaps he was going mad, king of narnia stuck in a little boy's body. he wore paint on his face because kings of narnia did that, and he wore perfumes on his body because kings of narnia did that, too, and no one ever knew he was only fifteen when he went out because he wasn't, not really, and when he came home she looked at him and her face fell. "oh, edmund," she said, and the next time he took her with him.
4. she held his hand and they jumped through into the painting.
5. he heard a cough in the darkness. "lu?" he asked. "oh, ed," she replied, her voice breathless. "do you know what's going on?" "i have no idea," he replied, "and it's awfully dark." lucy laughed. "i do hope you're not afraid, ed," she said, and he felt her warm hand curl around his. "i just worried about you," he said, and she laughed again.
annavtree asked: top five ways that CJ and Toby end up together
1. that one time just after college, when she was dating someone else and he was toying with alcoholism.
2. after he resigns (and the president fires him), and she nearly cries when she's saying his name she goes home and he's there and they have sex.
3. my back pages by delightfully eccentric
4. when huck and molly are in high school, it's a week where they're staying with toby and they get home from school and auntie cj's visiting! and they're so very, very excited that it takes almost an hour before they realise that something is wrong, and auntie cj cries because she's left danny and she's so damn upset and later, she stays the night, curled up on the couch with huck and molly and her own little baby (who is not such a baby any more). and toby and cj don't get together then, but it helps, and then they're together into their dotage (which has been this whole time, anyway, because they're practically dotty already)
5. one day cj is president, and as soon as her terms are over, the first day that she's not the president any longer, he turns up on her doorstep. he says, "i'm sorry," and she's like, "that's sixteen years too late, tobius," and kisses him anyway.
daygloparker THAT ENABLER asked: top five things that never happened to Parker and Jarod
IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:
1. Mr Parker decided that not only would his angel become a lean, mean, ruthless bitch, but so should Jarod (except not the bitch bit. For he is a boy). So Jarod too got trained to be mean, and pretend mean stuff, and Sydney disapproved so he secretly tried to teach Jarod to have a conscience and Mr Raines found out and Sydney disappeared! Which sent Jarod over the edge, so he ran away anyway in order to find Sydney, and Miss Parker came back to the Centre to find their precious pretender. CUE THEME MUSIC.
2. The Centre stole their DNA to make awesome intelligent babies! And Jarod finds out and tells Miss P and they steal them away! (most overused Pretender trope ever) (BUT STILL AWESOME)
3. THEY KISS IN ISLAND OF THE HAUNTED. WHICH I HAVE ON MY COMPUTER ADLSKJALSDFDASF I SHOULD SCREENCAP.
4. Lyle is hiding out in Wisteria Lane, undercover because he's a red file too, let's not forget, waiting for Jarod to show himself ala mysterious deaths etc.
5. The world ends just as Parker catches up with Jarod, but she's on her own just this once and they both find it difficult to believe that the world has ended BUT IT HAS and they go on an apocalyptic road trip.
(6. THEY ARE SPIES)
Outrageously,mandysbitch asked: Top five people (any fandom) Miss Parker should be paired with if she can't be paired with Jarod
1. Mr Lyle (they're not really siblings, I'm telling you!)
2. Kara Thrace (it's a one night thing)
3. Michael (from La Femme Nikita)
4. Lex Luthor (TOTALLY HOT)
5. Tommy Tanaka
BUT SHE GETS PAIRED WITH JAROD WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
kirbyfest asked: Top five Parker moments. Real or imagined.
OH UHM.
1. When she's watching Angelo in Dragon House, and the cure is wearing off and he's playing the piano and it goes from beautiful, amazing music to him barely being able to play twinkle twinkle, and it's so sad and she's so beautiful.
2. jarod and miss parker in the car in island of the haunted, and mr parker looks in at her and parker's look as she looks out the window is so adorable.
3. any moment when she's got a glass of gin in her hand and jarod's on the phone to her.
4. every scene she's in in Gigolo Jarod.
5. When she picks up the origami angel in the pilot.
