I would get Helen and Huckabee, since I hardly know anything about the latter. Why couldn't it have been Helen and Rhys? Alas...

Huckabee is in Gasoline and the first post of LBH; he gets talked about in the rest of the topic though so you can still use that. I don't know who any of those characters are so I'm sitting it out.

Choobeh, Joseph shot your van in the Ishkabibble. And Yoon's a 67 year old Korean woman.
So far, the results, by character: Helen: ||| Hector: || Huckabee: || Natalie: || Channery: | Inanimate Object: | Joseph: | Lucas: | Miko: | Nopcsa: | Yoon: | Yoshimitsu: | Ysane: |
This contest has been brought to you by the letter “H”.
I’d recommend rerolling any Helens from now on, and keep doing that. If any other character hits three pairings, add them to the reroll list as well. Because it gets boring if we all have to work with the same basic materials.

Don't humor him, he knows who these characters are, he's just being tiresome.
Probably the thing to do in the first place was to remove a character from the poll once they'd been rolled the first time.

The thing is that we did want a LITTLE repetition, we just weren't expecting my dice to go all Helen crazy. But look Pohatu, don't worry: I am now in the process of trying to compile a 100-character list for next time, if this contest goes well. How's that sound?
Also Lee: stfu you won't let me live that down will you. (I still like that mental image better. it just seems so much cooler.)

I don't know how I feel about a 100 character list. I mean, we barely had 75 characters for the popularity poll who were worth rating, let alone shipping. Much agreed with Pohatu, though, it may have been better to omit already-matched characters until they'd all been matched once. i mean like maybe we should reroll so that someone can get helen/rhys or somethingbtw, thanks for those links, 90 =) It will make my life a little easier. Most anticipated pairing: Nopcsa and Terrian. Someone make it happen.

I'd quite like to have mine re-rolled, but then you just KNOW I'd get two characters I'm not overly familiar with. Helen and Hector I know fairly well, though working in a dynamic between them is gonna be interesting.
I have some ideas! Hooray.
Can I have a second roll? Can we do that?

Well, my suggestion for the 100 character list was double dipping especially notable characters, like Nopcsa and Helen who pair with anybody, or Lucas or Ysane, which are delightful nightmare fuel.
Those were the big considerations this time around, after all. We tried to go for characters that were -Well known -Distinct Personalities -Capable of actually pairing off -Could lead to some really screwed up pairings

I don't know how I feel about a 100 character list. I mean, we barely had 75 characters for the popularity poll who were worth rating, let alone shipping. By the time we do this again, there'll be twenty-five more characters.

I just added the final touches to a new character, in fact! Expect to see a cameo soon!

Nopcsa/Natalie is in progress,actually. I've got some delightful ideas, and somebody else gets to play chokeslam the mindreader.
Nopcsa's going for a chokeslam recipient high score. I'm pretty sure Prime was hinted to have done one to him offscreen in LTR, Achenes did one rotated 90 degrees to him, and je oublier (somebody please provide the proper tense?), but Sikes may have grabbed him by his throat at the end of their big brawl.
He's like that trope where you're on the receiving end of a catchphrase, except instead, it's people wanting to shut you up and hurt you in one smooth motion.

Okay can I have mine re-rolled? I'm drawing blanks at what to write.

are you kidding me I'd say you have one of the easiest pairings. Hector and Helen are both in the Summoner group and Lee even confirmed that Helen finds Hector attractive (but still a complete jerk)
if Hector/Yoshi will be easier you can do that one, re-rolling will only risk getting a crack-ier pairing.

Actually the issue is not really knowing Helen well enough (including character voice, character quirks, and so on) to make it work without... well, crashing and burning, spectacularly.
I guess I'll do something Hector/Yoshi then.

That has never ever stopped a fangirl in the history of ever, which, admittedly, may be a huge reason why all fanfiction is trash.

HECTABEE: A LOVE STORY
The plaid blanket, all crisscrossed lines and squares of overlapping shades of gray, finally gave up and dropped off the brink of the mattress to collapse with an airy clump upon the floor. A sudden snort ensued, followed by the slack, swinging motion of a long, wiry arm, pale hair running up its surface, dangling off the bed. The veiny, spindly-fingered hand cast around in the empty darkness for a moment before catching a fold of the blanket. The springs of the mattress gave an agonized creak as the man shifted his weight mightily to pull the blanket back up over his form. As he turned inward again toward the bed, the other figure lying alongside him reached one arm out across his chest and ran the other hand through his receding hair.
“Mm…” the other one sighed. “Whoa. Your hair smells nice.”
“Yes, so does yours. Blueberries and dish detergent. My favorite things.”
“Ha ha,” said the second man. He pulled himself up onto an elbow and leaned back against the bedroom wall. “No, I’m serious though, yours smells great. What is that?”
The first man, who’d left his spectacles on the bedside table and was therefore not in much position to admire the second man’s lithe, muscular form and his enormous manhood, buried his face in the pillow instead.
“Never mind,” he answered.
“Is that… Wait.”
“Let’s talk about something else,” the first man grumbled thickly through the pillow. “Can we talk about something else?”
But the second man was drawing himself completely upright. He pointed at the first man’s hair. “Hang on, I totally got this.”
“Shut up.”
“Oh! Duh! Ha ha!” The second man clapped his forehead, his peacock-colored hair falling around his knuckles. “It’s totally P—”
GOOD NIGHT, EVERYBODY

GODDAMMIT POHATU WHAT WAS WITH THAT CLIFFHANGER
NOW I'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT SHAMPOO HUCKABEE USES
(side note! why is it that as hard as I try to establish Hector's new hair color as somewhere on the darker half of the brunette spectrum, people insist it's still blue hair? I guess it's just something he's going to live with forever, eh?)

Probably has to do with the shoping topic.
Also!
If you can't tell what shampoo Huckabee uses, then I'm afraid the joke was lost on you! Sorry. Someone'll get it. I'll wait patiently.
