top five things
More top five. And you can always ask for more by the way!
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
indigestible asked Top 5 works of science-fiction, any medium
1/ Distress by Greg Egan anarchism, gender, sexuality, ontological reality, mind-melting metaphysical hard science, YES!
2/ Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K Leguin gender, sexuality, taoism, long long treck in the snow
3/ Use of Weapon, by Ian M Banks BAM! ending, anachronological telling
4/ Brazil by Terry Gilliam (only movie of that list!)
5/ This Alien Shore by CS Friedman most realistic explanation for humanoid aliens ever, most awesome autist character ever
bitterfig asked for 5 favorite fictional f/f couples (can be canon, fanon or just wistful thinking)
1/ I'll be utterly cheating by naming Blackcest femslash, so I don't have to pick between Bellatrix/Narcissa, Bellatrix/Andromeda and Bellatrix/Tonks
2/ Juri/Shiori - because they're canon and messed up, because Juri's obsessed and because Shiori's a nevrotic passive aggressive wreck and I love her for it.
3/ Kendappa-Ou/Souma-Ou - because they're basically the female Seishiriou/Subaru
4/ Tohru/Saya - because they're the first generation of X's opera of angst, love and fucked up decisions made to rescue the ones you love. Because Saya is a mermaid sinner in an ocean of tears and how awesome is that? and because in Duklyon they go on a date to watch the X movie which is totally disturbing (someone please find me a scan of it)
5/ Ginny/Pansy - because they're both bitches in different ways and both would snark out at each others in the most delightful way
I don't know why, searching for this one, I kept feeling like I was forgetting someone obvious, not Melisandre/Phèdre though...
BTW, bitterfig, I need to rec you Bleed byredcandle17 which is going to make your brain melt. It's fairytale femslash.
a_white_rain asked for Top five10 reasons to like seishirou/subaru
1/ RAINBOW BRIDGE afkafkazjkdazjkhfjkfhjksfg which is just gorgeous and perfect and made of pure win and one cannot get tired of watching it
2/ Because of Seishirou's smile when he says Subaru's cute
3/ Because of Hokuto's speech about Subaru wanting someone for himself. Because Seishirou/Subaru is OMG angsty but either of them without the other would be even sadder
4/ Because of the hug in TB when talking about organ transplant. Because of the way it's echoed in X, and nothing beats a Wedding Eye
5/ Because of the dualism and symbolism, and the mythological references which makes it just perfect
6/ Because Seishirou will kill a puppy if you don't
7/ Because of this picture
8/ Because it's twisted, cruel, sadistic, poignant, morbid and utterly lovely
9/ Because there's no such thing as someone who shouldn't love anyone
10/ Because I.... you
curtana asked for Top five fictional couples who should really just get together already, dammit!

2/ Gerald/Damien
3/ Kurogane/Fai (although I'm not up to date with Japanese publications) tied with Rikuou/Kazahaya
4/ Saionji/Touya
5/ Byerly/Ivan
... I'm not sure this is a good answer to your question, since I mainly ended up pointing out slashy pairing, and I'm not sure that's what you were asking for...
