for that ship meme: pansy/terry, millicent/ernie, sinistra and snape as a brotp, goyle/luna, draco/dean ~ harry potter; malia/kira, allison/lydia ~ teen wolf?
the brutally honest ship opinions game
Pansy/Terry: uh, well. My headcanon Terry is gay as the day is long, and would probably go, “But Pansy’s always such a bitch to everyone else, so it’s okay to be a bitch to her before she’s even done anything today” while I can definitely see Pansy going, “Ugh, but he’s ~a homosexual deviant~ who got disowned over it” as an excuse to justify being a shit to him before he’s even done anything today (and doing it pretty hypocritically, since…… Pansy, honey? Depending on how I feel today, she’s either bi or a lesbian who’s in denial, and she is almost definitely having Something on the side with Daphne at any given moment, so yeah.)
idk, I think with these two, even if we overlook the incompatible orientation issue (since it is, admittedly, just my headcanon), they’re ultimately way too similar to each other to actually get along.
They differ on some pretty big points, too — oddly enough, House isn’t one of them for me, since I see Terry as a Slytherclaw who tries to pretend he’s a Ravendor because he desperately wants the love and approval of his found family of weirdo DA Ravenclaws and feels like he has to constantly earn it, and Pansy as a Slytherclaw who tries to pretend she’s a Slytherdor but doesn’t see it as pretending she’s a Slytherdor because eww Gryffindors are disgusting unless they’re Parvati, and Gryffindor is Gross, Pansy just wants it to be obvious to the other Slytherin girls that she is the Queen Bee so don’t fuck with her
—but those points of difference don’t really enable them to get along, ever. They largely just exacerbate the feeling of looking at someone else and seeing a grim reflection of all your own personal failings, everything that you could become or could’ve been under different circumstances, and so on, and hating the other person for that.
Which is intriguing af to me, but not going to make me ship it, really? (Not least since…… my headcanon Terry is still gay.)
Millicent/Ernie: Totally cute. They’d have a lot to work through, in canon, I think — though some of it also comes down to personal interpretation with Millicent, like, “was she a member of the Inquisitorial Squad because she genuinely believed in it, or because of peer pressure, or because she was terrified Umbridge might go after her family, or what? If she did genuinely believe in it, then what changed between then and DH, because she was not named as one of the students who supported the Carrows, and to be fair, it’s not like Dumbledore’s Army was EVER particularly welcoming to the Slytherins (whether in strictly DA terms or not), so Millicent couldn’t have joined them because they never helped make that an option for any Slytherin students”
—but I think that these two could work through it and be pretty adorable together. They’re not my favorite ship for either character, and I admittedly usually use them in more of a background capacity, but still, they’re cute
(background capacity meaning, like, “Pansy is sulking at Millicent and Ernie’s wedding because she’s single and ugh, how dare Millicent fall in love and get married before Pansy, this isn’t FAIR.
“Zacharias is drinking at Ernie and Millicent’s wedding because: 1. it’s a wedding and 2. eugh, Ernie has had sex with Millicent Bulstrode (and Zacharias, much as I love him, is still a douche who would go, ‘ewww’ at that and try to act like it’s about them being straight when no, it’s about him being a jerk and thinking that Millicent is hideous).
“Justin is nominally keeping an eye on his boyfriend at said wedding bc someone always has to, no matter where they go or what they do, buuuut Zacharias weaseled away and ends up talking to Pansy.
“At some point in there, he ends up going, ‘You know, we could elope with each other right now and it’d totally steal Millicent’s thunder and make you the center of attention again. But Justin gets to live with us and stay my boyfriend and you can have a girlfriend or a kept boy or whatever, I guess, that’d be fair, right? Actually, that might be even more scandalous and get you even more attention? You like attention, right?’
“and Pansy goes, ‘Huh, you make an oddly valid point, that’s like the first time I’ve ever heard you do that, am I supposed to reward you with idk a Pumpkin Pasty or something, stupid boys eat Pumpkin Pasties, right.’
“So she grabs Daphne and he goes and grabs Justin, and that’s the story of how Daphne and Justin got roped into facilitating one of the most asinine stunts that their boyfriend and longtime crush, respectively, ever pulled.
“Oddly enough, it does end up working, and is eventually more like two cohabiting couples — Daphne/Pansy and Justin/Zacharias — where Pansy and Zacharias just happen to be legally married because of said asinine stunt — and they send each other memos about dinner and the kids and whose fault it is that [pick some weird domestic dispute] was A Thing on official Ministry letterhead because they are Mature — but…… y’know. Things happen. Sometimes, the things that happen are weird.
“Ernie spends this whole time being like, ‘Justin, you’re supposed to be a GOOD influence on him, not HELPING HIM do the stupid thing of the day’ (and cue Justin: ‘He was going to do it with or without me! At least with me there, he didn’t try to Apparate while two drinks away from shit-faced!’)
“While Millicent is just like, ‘Daphne, does your girlfriend even remotely understand that relationships are not actually a competition and me getting married before she did is only an indication that I worked on sustaining a relationship more actively than she did.’
“‘No, but she’s also not my girlfriend, so……’
“‘So, you should do something about that, too. Since you’re already living with her, her husband, and his boyfriend.’
“‘I’M WORKING ON IT.’
“‘No, you’re not.’
“‘I AM SO. JUST. Very slowly.’
“‘Glaciers have been known to move faster, Daphs.’
“‘I just want everything to be perfectly romantic and to happen ever so beautifully and to live up to all of my completely unrealistic expectations that I made up in my head based on my own ridiculous misunderstanding of certain tropes in popular love poetry, is that really a crime now.’
“‘It’s not a crime, no, but it is kind of a problem if you ever want to actually be her girlfriend, soooo…… :|’”)
Sinistra & Snape: I haven’t really thought about it much before, but really, the only potential roadblock I see to them being friends (at least, friends who would actually describe themselves as friends) is, in short, Severus’s personality. More specifically, his attitudes toward friendship and being any kind of close to anyone. So, idk, I guess I could see them being like, “colleagues who at least more or less respect each other, who are almost friends, but have you tried being friends with Severus Snape lately? Bc he makes it very difficult”
Goyle/Luna: eh, I’d rather not? I guess I can see where someone might be coming from, but I also feel like Luna has better things to do after DH than coddle Greg and let him emote all over her about how his bff Vince died by being a dipshit and the other Slytherins are dealing with it by discussing fuck-all nothing and hey guys maybe Greg wants to talk about his feelings of grief, did anyone ever think about that??? :(
Like, I’d feel bad for Greg in that scenario — and unfortunately, given how most of the Slytherins behave, I think it’s totally plausible, and probably pretty likely to be what happened — but pairing Luna up with him in that scenario would feel like it’s too much about him and not enough about a balanced, mutually respectful relationship to me, so? I’d rather not
Draco/Dean: mmm, I’m gonna pass. Just…… Dean Thomas deserves so much better than this.
Kira/Malia: uh, I don’t really care about TW anymore in general, but they’re one of the only TW ships that I still love enough to look at content for, so there’s that?
Allison/Lydia: ……eh? *shrugs* They’re cute and all, but they dominated TW femslash for so long, and so much of the content for them was really heavily biased in favor of one or the other, usually glossing over Allison’s flaws and screw ups to make Lydia her doting girlfriend and present Allison as Completely Perfect Can Do No Wrong Ever or vice versa, so it’s like? I like them, but I don’t “like them” like them, y’know?
