and while I'm at it

kindkitHave a few more questions and answers from the shipping meme I started here.
4. Favourite m/f ship
Het is not really my jam, and my current fandoms basically don't have any. I'm going to cheat and answer with a m/f friendship (much rarer in fiction than het romance): Azu and Hamid from Rusty Quill Gaming. They're two super-friendly, outgoing people who, at the time they met, were surrounded by introverts and misanthropes, so they gravitated naturally together. And then they discovered something much deeper. One of the great joys of RQG has been watching them love and support each other, and also gently, lovingly tell each other when they're wrong or ridiculous.
5. Favourite m/m ship
Can't pick just one, especially as I don't want to repeat my answer for "Favorite ship ever," which was Xavier/Magneto.
But since I should give some kind of answer, have a ship that breaks my heart: Antonio/Sebastian from Twelfth Night.
6. Favourite f/f ship
I want to say Azu/Kiko from RQG, but it feels like cheating again to reuse a character. How about Waverly and Nicole from Wynonna Earp? (I'm not up to date on this show--I hope nothing awful has happened to them! No spoilers please.) Their relationship started out seeming like it was going to be a Sweeps Week Lesbian Kiss. But, while the show's definitely not above some titillation, there's real depth and emotion between Waverly and Nicole, deepening and becoming more complex over time.
