Here we go.

Day 26 - A pairing you hated and ended up loving?

I admit that this answer kind of sucks.  It's just the only answer I have.

The problem is that I form my ships pretty quick and I'm stubborn to un-ship or re-ship or even just reexamine why I love or don't love a pairing.  For me, I just don't think that there's ever been a pairing that I hated and ended up loving.

There was, however, a pairing that I was ambivalent about and ended up liking.  They were Inuyasha/Kagome from Inuyasha.



I've said it before, but Inuyasha just grated on my nerves in the beginning and Kagome was seemed like enough of a Mary Sue that I didn't much care what happened between them.  The whole will-they/won't-they is exhausting at the best of times.  Then when Kikyou came on the scene and created the infamous triangle, I just kind of threw my hands up in regard to them.  Just: Meh.

Yet by the end of the series, I was rooting for them anyway.  They both matured and were able to confront their feelings for one another and it was sweet.  They were both better people because of their relationship and that's always nice to see.  I liked that Kagome came back to Inuyasha and that they got a happy ending.

So that's my answer.  :)
