100 Media Things I Enjoy - #17

Evanescence

I really enjoy the music of Evanescence which is unexpected to a lot of people. This is not usually the style of music I listen to, but several songs caught my attention. I fell in love and have not found a song I dislike. I've found some I prefer more than others, but the playlists I have are among the few I can listen to without having to fast forward anything. I even got my niece hooked on them.

Day 8 - A pairing only you seem to like



Gwen Cooper/Jack Harkness - Torchwood

Well, I could have used Buffy/Riley again, but I figured I'd better pick a different pair today.

Torchwood fandom is full of Janto shippers, and there seem to be a lot of people who don't like Gwen at all. So it is no surprise to me that people dislike the Gwen/Jack pairing. I like them. I think Jack gives Gwen a freedom and adventure she needs to flourish while Gwen reminds him of why humanity is worth fighting for. They have a beautiful balance between them, and their ability to touch each other really calls to me.
