Give me a pairing and I'll tell you:

I. Fandom and meta:

1) How I FEEEEEEEEEL about this pairing
2) What made me ship it in the first place
3) The best fic I've ever read for them
4) Fic cliches that annoy me
5) An unpopular opinion
6) My alternative ships for them
7) Their biggest hurdle to overcome
8) Kids or no kids?
9) Something about their sex life
10) Fanart!

II. Little details:

1) Who is the big spoon/little spoon
2) Their favorite non-sexual activity
3) Who uses all the hot water
4) What they order from takeout
5) The most trivial thing they fight over
6) Who does most of the cleaning
7) Who calls the super/landlord when the heat's not working
8) Who steals the blankets
9) Who leaves their stuff around
10) Who remembers anniversaries

Note: I actually am not in the Supernatural fandom, so I don't have any ships for that. Terribly sorry!

Nothing wrong with Amy/Rory! :D

I. Fandom and meta:

1) SO ADORABLE! *ahem* In all seriousness, Amy and Rory hit all of my buttons for a favorite pairing. They fight for each other, they make sacrifices for each other, they are clearly devoted to each other, they are not afraid to be affectionate with each other, and they fight together. What's not to like?
2) The episode Amy's Choice was when I first started to warm up to the pairing, because it became clear that this was not going to turn out like Mickey and Rose, and would actually be a pairing that would last (one thing that kills shipping for me is if it's broken up before I get a chance to be properly invested in it). What REALLY got me shipping it was The Pandorica Opens, from Rory saving Amy from the Cyberman and looking after her even as he's confused as to how he returned from nonexistence to Amy's memories of him returning ("Rory Williams...my boyfriend. How could I ever forget you?" *sob*)
3) Hm, I'd go with Only My Hands to Guide Me, by such_heights (http://such-heights.dreamwidth.org/353922.html)
4) Erm, I haven't read a lot of Amy/Rory fanfiction, so I can't say. I think anything that wimpifies either of them is a safe bet
5) I guess this is unpopular for Amy/Doctor shippers, but I was very glad when they didn't just repeat what they did with Rose and have Amy and the Doctor be hopelessly in love. It was very refreshing to have them be friends and have an almost grandfather/granddaughter relationship at times
6) Erm...I don't have any ^^;
7) How about the fact that their travels with the Doctor lead to them dying/being erased from existence every other episode?
8) Well...they do have a kid!
9) We do see that they spent their honeymoon having a bit of fun, dressed as a Roman soldier and a kissogram policewoman XD
10) They Both Waited: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=Amy%20and%20Rory%20Pond&order=9&offset=168#/d4a7byz

II. Little details:

1) Amy is the big spoon, Rory is the little spoon
2) When with the Doctor, exploring the universe. In between those adventures, they enjoy some down time, just watching TV, relaxing, and enjoying not dying
3) Amy, I think
4) Chinese. Um... I can't think of much more specific, sorry. ^^; Nothing too elaborate, though
5) Which one of them keeps forgetting to turn out the lights when they leave the room
6) Hard to say. I could see Rory as the type who'd do that, but he's a nurse and thus would be working quite a lot. He and Amy would do it in turns, I think
7) Rory
8) Amy
9) Amy, though I'm sure Rory has his moments, after a particularly stressful day at work/ adventuring
10) Rory. It'd be close though. I think it's been proven that Amy is VERY good at remembering stuff. XD
