Re: Your notp(s)

[badass_tiger]

I usually dislike shipping a married character with someone else in general, but I really don't like Vimes/Vetinari. I do understand the ship and I definitely don't mind the Vimes/Vetinari/Sybil ship (well I do have one tiny objection to it that makes me not actively ship it, but it's trivial), but I just hate that most V/V fanworks have Vimes cheating on Sybil. That's just awful.

Seeing the above comment about not wanting to ship Tony with anyone except Pepper because she brings out the good in him makes me think that might have something to do with it too. Vimes tries really hard to control his temper all the time and Vetinari's always winding him up. I just feel like it's a bit unfair to both of them.

I really hated Sam/Gabriel in the Supernatural fandom too. I probably wouldn't mind it so much if the fandom would acknowledge how screwed up it is more, but it's usually portrayed as a pair-the-spares best-buds kind of thing. Gabriel seriously traumatised Sam. I have a really hard time imagining them as a fluffy, happy couple.

Out of curiosity, what's your objection to Vimes/Vetinari/Sybil? (I didn't even know this OT3 was a thing until now! :D But it must make for some interesting dynamics).

Re: Your notp(s)

[badass_tiger]

Haha it's really dumb. It's actually not that popular last I checked and I don't like it because the way I usually see it being portrayed is that of a love triangle focused on Vimes, which I find unfair to Sybil, and besides, there is way too much angst involved in the idea of Vetinari being in love with someone who he can't truly have, and I really dislike my favourite characters being put through that much angst.

Re: Your notp(s)

[dreemyweird]

I could see this dynamics being written as mostly fluffy, with Sybil bringing Vetinari and Vimes together and smoothing over their difficulties. She's more cunning than Vimes, but healthier and more straightforward than Vetinari. She could be the ideal link between them.

But I see how the execution would be frustrating. I'm really not fond of OT3s in which the third character is just kind of there in order to avoid making the relationship between the other two an act of adultery.

I like the "Music by B.S. Johnson" series by icarus_chained. Low angst with a Sybil PoV.

Re: Your notp(s)

Yep, I agree so much with your first one. And it's not just because i prefer Vetinari/Drumknott. I just... don't see it.

I will refuse to read any fanworks that have the main pairing cheating on someone. Won't do it. It just sours it for me.

NEVER got the appeal of Sam/Gabriel

ditto.

Hey, I spent a months messing with your head while killing your brother again and again and again*, only to then do something even worse. It's not NOTP levels for me, but just something I never got the popularity of.
