If you're talking about what I think you're talking, then yeah...I thought the same thing when I saw it...
Jizabeth? Standers? Dare I ask?
who have they mushed together now? and can I just say I really hate ship names like that.
John/Elizabeth (Shep and Weir from SGA). After the group of us who'd originally gone "amalgamated pairing names are bad, let's call it something stupid, like Sparky, so that the ship name is inoffensive" and had then realized that there were people calling themselves 'sparklers' (wtf), and that we should'a just named it Jizabeth and scared everyone off.
Starbuck/Anders from BSG. I don't care if it was a joke. Do not threaten to amalgamate my kids.

Starbuck/Anders.
I LOATHE, DESPISE, HATE AND UTTERLY WANT KILLED THE PERSON WHO STARTED amalagamated pairing names.
Er. Sorry. Might be capslocky on this subject for a while.

Jizabeth makes me think of a new name for Jack and Elizabeth in POTZ.
Standers is a real name. Mushed pairing names that that form real words and names are worse than the normal ones, because they just confuse us more.

The first one I remember is the infamous "Spuffy".
*cowers*
It's no worse than Starpollo! And hey, another Kara/Sam comm. :D
I think the person who started it is a non-native speaker, FWIW.

Oh, I so agree. Smushing names together isn't cute. NOT CUTE.
Yes. They must die. I only make one exception for mushed pairing names, and even that I feel treacherous about. (I wonder...did Sam/Jack ever have one of those? Jam? Sack?)
You say that like the current one is so very populated and busy.
AHAHAHAHAHA, Keikolay is actually kinda cute. In that "I WILL CUT YOU IF YOU DO THAT" way.
Hrm. There is literally nothing I can say that won't get me smacked. *sends comfort and fluffy blankets*

It also works there, yes.
I don't care if it's a real name.

*nods* I should let her know about PoD. I'm just happy to see *AHEM* the relationship between Kara Thrace and Samuel T. Anders get some love. *sets down a pint of pink mint chip ice-cream and runs*
I'm told it came over from the soap opera fandoms, slipped into Buffy and then never looked back. It's like the internet herpes.
*tries not to tear her hair out over this*
Original SG never had smushed names. BUT OMG IS ATLANTIS FULL OF THE FRELLERS.
Actually, it is, yeah. BUT.
Smart. *curls up and grouses*
(ALSO. I MADE BILLY BE ARWEN, SINCE JEAN IS ARAGORN)

Standers?
How frakking stupid...
Keikolay?
I'm guessing that's Billy (I could never spell his last name) and Barolay? That is sort of cute. Standers on the other hand is beginning to piss me off.

Then original SG seriously lucked out.
I did. I was polite about it. I think? The problem is that two comms is like having THREE KARA THRACE COMMS. No traffic on ANY of them. EVER. And you split people or annoy people when you spam all the comms when you post.
BSG fandom, despite the way it looks is just not big enough for multiple comms like this. Only Kara/Lee or Roslin/Adama can handle it. And even then.

Mmm. *nods sagely*
*scritches you and gives you crackers*
(OMG! I... could totally see Billy spending a long time sewing a flag. Mostly because he keeps sewing his fingers together because coordination =/= Wilhelm Keikeya. Also, he'd TOTES pine.)

I know. *tries not to tug on her hair again*
Bingo. And, technically, I should do Jean/Billy or Barolay/Keikeya, so... Jelly or Barokeya.

Billy makes an excellent Arwen, really. Btw. Gandalf is Mom.
