Revenge (which got long, sorry)
OTP: Emily/Jack. It's not that I don't like them in other ships, it's just that that's who I wanted the other one to end up with from day 1.
Runner-up + Honorable mention(s): Jack/Margaux, before usual Revenge-y hi-jinks occurred.
Emily/Ben, before (spoiler) happened. (Spoiler gap used since I'm not sure if you've seen the end of season 4.) Because Ben seemed to legitimately like Emily. For no ulterior reason. Which is unusual.
Emily/Aiden, eventually, once I'd warmed up to him. Which took some warming. Because, argh! Aiden, I know you wanted the best for Emily but ... stop getting in her way, and stop being mean to Nolan. Only he did love Revenge-y Emily, utterly and completely and I think she could have been happy with him had Victoria not killed him.
Amanda/Emily - In all it's messy, manipulative, dynamite and fire glory.
Nolan/David, which you utterly called. Because there's Nolan's deep and abiding love and respect for him and David's utter sense of betrayal before he finds out who Emily is and ... yes.
Crack pairing(s):
Nolan/Aiden, or sort of. Because, before Victoria killed him, I always envisioned a future where Emily and Jack live happily ever after and Nolan and Aiden live next door and Nolan has grown to love Aiden, while accepting that Aiden will always love Emily (which Nolan doesn't mind) and this way at least they can keep an eye on Emily and Jack and keep them safe. There may be a (now sadly AU) on my 'to be written' pile on this theme.
I also had hopes for Charlotte and crazy girl stalker, of them settling down happily with the baby but season 3 happened.
Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't:
Three answers for three different reasons.
Nolan/Emily - because no, they are each other's best friends forever and just too precious for words like that. I've always said my perfect end-game for Revenge was Emily/Jack with Nolan living next door because that would make him happy.
Nolan/Patrick - because Patrick set off every single one of my 'no, run away now' spider senses. Which I know is not due to the actor, it's entirely down to the character. He just seemed really shady and controlling. And I remember the look on his ex-wife's face when Nolan asked about him. It looked pretty much like terror.
Emily/Daniel - because I wanted Daniel covered by bees. Many bees. And I know he's not even in the top three worst people in his family, but I just really hated him by the end.
