Hee! Well, I do agree that the Johnny/Evan dynamic can be incredibly compelling. Also, I think you've hit it right on the head with what makes RPF so interesting -- So much of what we know about them is really a persona -- because real people are tangled up and messy and contradictory. I could easily buy a whole bunch of different characterisations of Johnny Weir et al.

As for why I ship Johnny/Stéphane: well, I commented here! It is a ridiculous and earnest list and I think they are totally meant for each other. :D
