In the No Fanfic / No Slash department...

(snort) Defamer swings twice, connects twice.

In other multiple nominations news, Helen Mirren was recognized for playing both Elizabeth I in a TV miniseries and Elizabeth II in The Queen, an achievement that we genuinely hope you won't use to concoct transgressive, cross-generational fantasies that sully the monarchy. Leave the queens alone, sicky.

That's code-talk for fanfic, surely. So we can't all run out and start writing hot E-I / E-II pairings, then? Aw, shucks.

...Also a no-no, apparently: Bigfoot / Unicorn. (Seriously. There's video. And a fat lady who sings.)

...And jeez, it's true, you can find anything on teh Intarwebz. Look! Fanfic pairing generators:

Ultimate Star Trek Pairing Generator
Brain Hurting Pairing Generator

 ...This wet weather's beginning to get to me. I'm going to get some cocoa and try to forget all about this.

My old friend dragonscholar is the twisted mind behind those generators! He's been up to that sort of thing for almost 15 years now... the original Superhero Generator and Villain Generator *waaaay* back when spit out a few things that haunt the corners of my mind to this day: "Jungle Dwarf" and "Baron Face", particularly... yike. We'd run that thing for hours, looking for the names that immediately suggested powers, an origin, and everything. It's surprising what your brain can come up with on only two or three words.

Jungle Dwarf. I mean, *ow*. :)

Ack, well, he wrote the second of the two, anyway--the Brain Hurting Pairing Generator. Worst to date: Spock/Cookie Monster, Darth Vader/Frau Blucher (Young Frankenstein), Adrian Monk/Bill the Pony (LotR), and Charles Foster Kane/GIR (Invader Zim).

If you hear a little gurgling, it's my brain leaking out of my ears.
