23 Apr 2010 23:51Pick 15 of your ships and write down a quote for each of them. Let your f-list guess. Looking them up on IMDb or Google is cheating.
1. Master and Commander
Stephen: What about a little Corelli? Or are you in the mood for something more aggressive?
Jack: Why don't we improvise, like we did that time off Crete, see where we get to?
Stephen: All right, you first.
2. Sherlock Holmes
Holmes: I owe you both my thanks and an apology. It was an unjustifiable experiment even for one’s self, and doubly so for a friend. I am really very sorry.
Watson: You know that it is my greatest joy and privilege to help you.
3. New Avengers
Luke Cage: Okay, Baby, uh... I'm going to tell you about the time me and your mommy first met.
Jessica Jones: Already told her.
Luke: Okay. How about the first time we fought a--
Jessica: Already told her.
Luke: How about the time we--
Jessica: That we never tell her.
4. Star Trek: Voyager
Chakotay: Me, get up in front of people and perform? I don't think so.
Janeway: Come on, Chakotay. There must be some talent you have that people would enjoy. Maybe I could stand with an apple on my head and you could phaser it off.
Chakotay: Sounds great. If I miss I get to be captain.
5. due South
Ray K: You don't have a gun?
Fraser: Well, obviously you weren't fully briefed. I'm not licensed to carry a firearm.
Ray K: And you didn't bother telling me before?
Fraser: Well, it didn't seem germane at the time.
Ray K: What the hell kinda word is that?
6. Young Avengers
Eli: I broke my hand.
Kate: I love you.
Eli: I may break my hand everyday.
7. Bon Cop/Bad Cop
David: You speak French?
Martin: No, not really. [in French] I had a small gadget installed in my brain, and I see subtitles under people when they speak.
8. The Lord of the Rings
Arwen: Dark is the Shadow, and yet my heart rejoices; for you, Aragorn, shall be among the great whose valour will destroy it.
Aragorn: Alas! I cannot foresee it, and how lit may come to pass is hidden from me. Yet with your hope I will hope. And the Shadow I utterly reject. But neither, lady, is the Twilight for me; for I am mortal, and if you will cleave to me, Evanstar, then the Twilight you must also renounce.
Arwen: I will cleave to you, Dunidain, and turn from the Twilight. Yet there lies the land of my people and the long home of all my kin.
9.Spider-Girl
Mayday: Stop it! Stop it! I admit I could have done better. I wasn't much of a friend... or a hero.
Normie: That isn't true, May. You always did the best you could. No one could ask more.
Mayday: N... Normie?
Normie: My life used to be a black hole. I was angry and bitter. You never gave up on me. I've come to return the favour.
10. Avengers
Steve: Am I really that much of a hardcase?
Tony: Yes. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Or rather, I should say you were, until you got all maternal and turned the mansion into a day-care centre.
Steve: Wait until you see the new program I've worked up for you in the combat simulation room, Tony. You have to avoid wedding alters home decorating programs and diaper changing stations.
Tony: You're a cruel man, Steve Rogers.
11. Babylon 5
Ivanova: Jump Engines back on line yet?
Marcus: No. If I signal the fleet, this lot might pick it up. If they do and we can't get away...
Ivanova: Well... who wants to live forever?
Marcus: I do, actually! But what the hell.
12. Hercules: TLJ
Iolaus: Well, how are we going to find the right cave? I mean, do we just say, 'Hey, here we are,' and expect it to pop up in front of us?
Hercules: We could try that.
Iolaus: No, better yet, we spin a stick and go in whatever direction it points.
Hercules: That sounds even better.
Iolaus: Herc, you do have a plan, don't you?
13. Immortal Iron Fist
Luke: Let me think about it.
Danny: What is there to think about? It's a surprise. I want to surprise you, now put on the damn blindfold before I chop you in the neck.
Luke: I cannot believe I'm doing this.
Danny: You're gonna love it, trust me.
14. Much Ado About Nothing
Benedick: A miracle! here's our own hands against our hearts. Come, I will have thee; but, by this light, I take thee for pity.
Beatrice: I would not deny you; but, by this good day, I yield upon great persuasion; and partly to save your life, for I was told you were in a consumption.
15. The Middleman
Wendy: When we graduated art school, we swore two things. No more underwear-stealing boyfriends…
Lacey: What was it with those guys, we were like magnets.
Wendy: …and no more waitressing.

Date: 24 Apr 2010 07:01 (UTC)6 is Eli/Kate.
8 is Arwen/Aragorn.
15 is Lacey/Wendy from The Middleman! :D (Does fic exist?)
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 08:35 (UTC)8. Yes (nerd!)
15 yes (there must be, try AO3)
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 07:23 (UTC)5. Benton Fraser/Ray Vecchio?
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 08:36 (UTC)5. No
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 07:33 (UTC)And 1 is Jack Aubrey/Stephen Maturin, and 10 is, of course, Steve and Tony being married and eye0fucking over tea in the Civil War: What If comic.
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 08:37 (UTC)1. Yes (though the full quote never quite made it to the movie, it's in the original script).
10. Yes (from Vol 3 Avengers).
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 12:30 (UTC)And 5 is the other Ray. You can tell because he's been briefed about Fraser. :)
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 14:28 (UTC)5. Also yes (Did I just step into the Ray Wars?)
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 14:47 (UTC)(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 16:08 (UTC)(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 17:39 (UTC)4. Janeway/Chakotay! Oh, that makes me want to watch Voyager now...
12. Hercules/Iolaus. I actually saw that particular episode not that long ago.
Oh, I know that I should know #9 and #13; they're both really familiar. That's going to bother me until someone else guesses them.
And I also recognized Aubrey/Maturin, Luke/Jessica, Fraser/Kowalski, Eli/Kate, Arwen/Aragorn, Steve/Tony, and Marcus/Ivanova (*sniff*). There's a possibility that we have too many 'ships in common. ;-)
(no subject)
Date: 24 Apr 2010 18:24 (UTC)4. Yes (I rewatched "Coda" recently and gloried in the over the top shippy goodness. I <3 Jeri Taylor).
12. Yes (I'm sure there's a better quote for those two, but oddly that was the one I remembered.)
We do seem to have a lot of ships in common, and at least one that you didn't get.
(no subject)
Date: 25 Apr 2010 22:07 (UTC)and 9 really seems familiar, but i can't place it...

Date: 1 May 2010 17:42 (UTC)The answers are all posted now.
