Alright - tired passifistic multi-shipper checking in for some rest-bite in this sane corner of the board.
Is it wrong to like DnA and D/L? *sigh*
I really don't get how worked up people can get about 'ships on these shows. CSI revolves around plot, not characters. We get drips and drabs of character development here and there (probably the most on Miami, though we now no more about the Las Vegas team by default 'cause they've been around longest). But it's this very fact that makes 'shipping so fun! You have room to PLAY! So frankly, I don't
care if my favourite 'ships get together or not - partly because my favourite 'ship changes depending on the cycle of the moon, or the how hungry I am, or what side of the bed I got out of... you get the idea - but mostly because having them apart gives us fanfic-ers and vidders and artists etc so much creative scope and much, much, much more of a challenge. Plus, once a couple get together, it's just so difficult to keep it fresh! I almost ALWAYS get bored with a 'ship once their canon. So long as the writers provide us with a scene every now and again to get us buzzing I'm happy! It sparks off a little creativity, sends me off to write some fanfiction - gives me a little rout out of the world for a couple of hours while I do so. That's all I need. It's why I watch CSI! Besides, IT'S A TV SHOW! Where, exactly, is the point in getting upset or, even more ridiculously, hurting other people who's feeling on the subject differ slightly from your own? I'm always open to debate and conversation, but flaming and b****ing and crap is just stupid.
So yes, sorry for the rant, but I felt the need to vent. Shall I list my ships, just to top it off?
