Should I be disturbed that my current het OTP is Christian Troy/Kimber Henry from Nip/Tuck? Although the show could not be slashier if it were S1 Smallville, Christian and Kimber are MFEO. The match may well have been made in Hell, but it's still perfect. I need a Kimber/Christian icon.

Huh, maybe it's because I missed about half of season 2, but I'm not feeling the Kimber/Christian love.

I am, however, feeling the love of Christian/whoever that new guy is who looked at his neck. That was actually more intimate than anything else that went on that hour and a half.

I often find the mirroring of the A & B plots in N/T to be heavy-handed (but effective); this time I really liked the mirroring of what Dr. Costas did with the detective's similarly intrusive/intimate handling of Christian's neck. Especially with Costas's line about "I bought you a drink," I'm thinking the slashy possibilities are only going to increase.

As for Kimber/Christian, I think you really do need to see them over S2 to feel that they are soulmates, to the extent that either one has a soul.

It's true that neither Kimber nor Christian have much of a soul to speak of, but I find Christian way more interesting than Kimber. She's fluff. They might be perfect for each other, but I just don't care. Christian needs a challenge. She's too easy, for all that she's a total psycho.
