I had a bit of a reminder the other day of exactly how much fandom is kind of a little world unto itself. One of my school-friends in my calc class asked what I had been doing instead of actually listening to the prof, and I said fic, and then added 'It's so weird having a canon het OTP.' To which he went '...What?' We practically speak another language, really.
It is weird, though - said canon het OTP is Ada/Leon, which as of late I've fallen completely and totally in love with, probably as a result of Ada being totally and completely effing awesome, and Leon being the epitome of dorky!cute, which I love. It's one of my few almost true OTPs, where either of the characters being with someone else is a great big 'no' - I was reading a bit of Leon/Claire earlier to give it a try, because I like both of them, and I like the hints of canon friendship, and I just...couldn't do it. My brain was just going 'Arghnonono'.
Tangentially related - damnit, Leon, stop trying to associate yourself with the Red Hot Chili Peppers in my head. Ada and Vienna Teng is bad enough. Or Asher. Trust me, you two wouldn't like each other (although they could knife-fight. Mmm, Leon-Asher knife-fight. That'd be hot.)
...Yes, I'm going to bed now before I do any more talking to the characters in my head, and thusly, myself.
