Re: Hux/Poe pairing?

[(Anonymous)]

Is there a term for this?
Shipping characters who never met or deal with with eachother, because their actors played more shipable characters in another movie?

I remember lots and lots of Bane/John Blake fics over at Nolanverse Batman, and call me crazy, but I think that was due to the actors playing the very shipable Arthur and Eames in Inception, not because Bane's and Blake's chemisty.

Anyway I don't mind.

Shipping characters who have never met or dealt with each other is kind of my bread and butter for some reason! It's not quite a pair the spares situation, as for me a lot of it comes from shipping more minor characters who don't get a lot of screentime period. A lot of it really will come down to actor chemistry offset though- sometimes because that's literally all you have to go off of.

I shipped Moriarty/Mycroft really hard (before they actually interacted in canon, and so believe you me that was Christmas) and a lot of the fuel was actor stuff offset.

Also in this instance, most of the Ex Machina fic is noncon. :/

Moriarty/Mycroft was so easy to see as canon after that interaction, in a twisted dark way.
