I worry about her. She's been crying an awful lot lately. She's always been kind of hairtrigger with the tears but it's getting really bad and there's nothing I can do to comfort her because mostly she's worried that she and my father are going to be fired and if the Salvation Army kicks them out, they literally have nothing. The Salvation Army owns everything: our house, both cars, my parents' health insurance that they really, really cannot afford to lose, everything we need to live.
It just makes me sick to think that my parents would have thrown away eleven of the prime years of their lives to an institution that so obviously doesn't give a damn about them. Plus there's no way my father could go back to work with his Menier's disease fucking him up, so my mom would have to be the sole supporter of the house (except I would obviously get a job and do my part, because I might be a freeloader but I'm not a douchebag). She still has her RN's license and there are plenty of hospitals nearby enough that she could definitely get a job, but... we wouldn't have any place to live. Or any way for her to get to work.
Okay, I'm going to start crying myself if I think about this much longer. SO HELP ME OUT AND DISTRACT ME WITH A MEME:
Give me one character and I will tell you:
1. OTP for them.
2. Runner-up pairing.
3. Honourable mention(s).
4. Crack pairing(s).
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't.
...I do have fandoms besides Heroes, if anyone feels like mixing it up a little. :P

I get scared about my mum now. She's 51, but unlike your mum she hasn't really done a lot with herself for some years now. I'm trying to get her out the house, she comes with me swimming on Saturdays but doesn't go in the pool. It's just an excuse to get her out. I worry about losing her, and not just because she's the buffer between us and dad. I can remember when I was 7 or 8, my best mate at the time asked her if she wanted to be buried or cremated. My mum answered the question, then when we got back to my friends house I went off all teary in the front room on my own because I didn't want to think about it. I still don't, not really.
I wish there was something else I could say but that'd just be making you dwell on stuff you can't help, so... Scotty, please :)
*hugs*
xx
2. Runner-up pairing. Scotty/Gaila. :D
3. Honourable mention(s). Scotty/Kirk, nu!trek only though. Scotty/McCoy, series or movie.
4. Crack pairing(s). Scotty/Keenser xD
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. Is there a really popular Scotty pairing? I don't think there is. Anyway, I am all about Scotty getting more love in general.
It is really scary talking about funeral arrangements. My mother is very clear on just how she wants her funeral to go, and she has been saying for a while that she wants to be cremated and have her ashes distributed to family and friends to take on vacation and scatter all around the globe. She has also said that if she gets Alzheimer's and can't recognize us any longer, to just put her in a nursing home and not bother visiting. I tell her every time she says that that there's no way I could possibly do that. I was heartbroken when my Nana couldn't recognize me and it would kill me if my mom couldn't, but I could never just abandon her like that.

I'm really sorry to hear all the rest...there aren't any easy answers; you and your whole family are in a very scary place right now. I will add you to my prayer list that the worst doesn't happen -- but know that even if it does, you won't face it alone.
2. Runner-up pairing. Mohinder/Matt
3. Honourable mention(s). I am the only person who writes Mohinder/Ando but I think it makes a certain twisted sense... Mohinder/Elle
4. Crack pairing(s). Mohinder/Bob, because Bob had a huge obvious mancrush on him!
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. I never got on board with Mohinder/Peter (though I did write it once... I have written Mohinder with a good deal of the cast, he's my little black dress for the fandom!)
Thank you for praying for us. :) It's been a long time since I've talked to God myself but I would be lying if I said I never saw prayer work for people.
2. Runner-up pairing. Howard/Terri. What?
3. Honourable mention(s). ...not that I read a lot of Glee fic but I don't think I've seen any other pairings with him.
4. Crack pairing(s). Isn't every pairing a crack pairing?
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. Okay, I know there's a secret cult of Howard/Puck. Because this fandom might be batshit enough to prove me right.
2. Plausible. They do spend an awful lot of time at Sheets 'N Things together. And if Will's not getting any action at home, Terri's gotta blow off some steam somehow...
3. You must have missed my Howard/Santana fic :P
4. Yes.
5. If there is a secret cult of Howard/Puck, I must pull an Indiana Jones and find it...
I hope this is distracting you enough from the not fun things.
Yes, thank you ♥
I am sorry to hear such a wonderful family as yours may face this. I am not one to pray everyday, but for you my dear friend, that is what I will do. Keep your head up and if you ever need anything ask, please.
And to keep your mind off things, how about Sylar? :-P
2. Runner-up pairing. Sylar/Luke.
3. Honourable mention(s). Sylar/Elle, Sylar/Peter (but preferably Gabriel/Peter twin!verse)
4. Crack pairing(s). Sylar/Ando, which nobody else ever wrote but people reacted to it surprisingly well when I gave it a shot. Sylar/Samuel had potential, I thought, but I don't think anyone ever went there.
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. Sylar/Claire, nooooooooooo.
That's tough sweetie, I hope it all works out for you and your family. My mum was 20 when she had me so now she's 50 and my Grandma (her mum) died at 65 so I can't help thinking "oh crap, only another 15 years!"
I know that's not real but...you know
2. Runner-up pairing. Luke/Mohinder, for which I blame Perdi.
3. Honourable mention(s). Luke/Lyle was always kinda cute.
4. Crack pairing(s). Luke/Zach or Luke/West, because I'm sure someone could engineer a situation to put them together plausibly, but who would bother?
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. No, the one big Luke ship I'm totally on board with.
2. Runner-up pairing. Nathan/Noah
3. Honourable mention(s). Nathan/Matt (they totally had chemistry in season 2)
4. Crack pairing(s). Nathan/Hiro (any way you slice it that comes out cracky)
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. Nathan/anyone played by Ali Larter
...I really have written way more of the possible Heroes pairings than anyone should have. xD
Puck
1. OTP for them. Puck/Kurt
2. Runner-up pairing. Puck/Finn
3. Honourable mention(s). ...no, that's pretty much it for Puck.
4. Crack pairing(s). Puck/Artie. Why not? :P
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. Puck/Rachel. No thank you!
Allow me to do my part with distraction: Hikaru Sulu!
2. Runner-up pairing. Sulu/Kirk.
3. Honourable mention(s). Sulu/Spock, which... has anyone even written it besides me?
4. Crack pairing(s). Sulu/sex pollen plant. I've seen it done...
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. I honestly don't know of a popular pairing for him that isn't with Chekov, so...
2. Runner-up pairing. Sheldon/Raj
3. Honourable mention(s). Sheldon/Leonard's mother xD
4. Crack pairing(s). Sheldon/Leslie. Epic hatesex? xD
5. Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. I read Sheldon/Penny, but I don't ship it.
Much lols! I loved that episode. :D
