Shipping, just because I've been thinking about it

This thread is for writing about shipping characters on the site, with comments as to why you like or dislike a certain pairing. Civility is required. We are not all going to agree.
Here are mine:
Sail! (Or, the pairings I like)
James/Chase: You knew I was going to say this one. Of course I am. They aren't in the healthiest of relationships, not with James relying so heavily on Chase for his happiness, and their mutual--and justified--trust issues. But that's part of why I'm invested in them; I want them to work, and get better, so they can be better for each other.
Ann/Zac: Not an OTP, or even something I'd want to see lasting, but I think they could, in small doses, be good for each other. Zac needs someone to ground him when he gets too full of hot air, and Ann needs someone to insist on giving her attention. Fizzle out, flare out, or explode, I think whatever fallout would be outweighed by the good they can do for each other.
Sink! (Or, the pairings I don't like as much)
Joshua/Sean: As a romantic pair. I love their current dynamic too much. Simple as that.
Darryl/Midori: They are pretty. But they don't love each other.
Eli/Midori: If they ever tried to force their friendship into something different, it would only lead to them both being unhappy, because they can never be who the other person wants.
Sorta? (Or, the pairings I'm not sure about)
Moe/Vincent: I have grown to love Vincent's man-whore ways. They're cute together, but a Vincent free to screw around is more entertaining, for me.
Anya/Morgan: Have they ever spoken to each other in-game? I don't ship this simply because I've never seen their interaction played out.
Midori/Anyone other than Darryl or Eli: In theory, totally, though the same issue with Anya/Morgan up there does come into play. I want her to be happy, and so does Eli.
