So I was randomly talking about Team Rocket about someone. And now I have an urge to go read a fanfic that really obsessive Team Rocket fan wrote to resolve the Wobbuffet Festival episode from season ... 4, I think it was. Problem is, I can't remember the person's name, only that it starts with a C. Searching for fansites doesn't bring up hers among them; I wonder if she disappeared and so did her site.
Anyone remember the name of that girl/know the URL of the site?
I never thought I'd actually be looking for her site again, haha. Her obsessiveness over the Rocketshipping pairing and her insistence on all the proof of its reality (Jessie and James hugging each other when frightened, using each other as pillows, etc.), only made me balk at the pairing idea all the more and made me want to imagine that they're doing all those things without actually being romantically involved with each other. The characters being so close in a platonic way that they even use each other as pillows somehow strikes me as so much more adorable and squeeable than if they were romantically connected while doing such.

....Wow, what would they think of all the clinging that the Doctor and Jamie do, I wonder...?

Their justification was that in Japan, it's generally only couples who would do things like that. I was thinking, though, that the people just had to be extremely close, not necessarily in a romantic relationship. Maybe I'm wrong. But I figured that it was just special closeness, either platonic or romantic, and that most people with their mindsets would simply decide that only people romantically interested would do that, rather than that actually being the case even in Japan.

Huh. I'm not familiar with that; I would think there would be a platonic version, too...
