auroracloud: vintage drawing of a woman and a lamppost against a text background (Default)
A meme grabbed from [personal profile] kindkit, because I want to be social about something and this seems like a good way. And also because I haven't done a fandom meme in a while and this looks like fun.


Give me a character and I'll tell you some things:

1. How I feel about this character

2. All the people I ship romantically and/or sexually with this character

3. Favorite gen relationship(s) for this character

4. My unpopular opinion about this character

5. One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

6. Random pet theory about this character that you won't convince me is not true.

7. A song or piece of music I associate with this character.


Feel free to pick any fandom that you know I like. If you're not sure if I know/like something, try it and I'll tell you if I don't know the fandom/character enough to have these opinions. Just one caveat: if you pick Doctor Who, I've still got very conflicted feelings about the Chibnall era thanks to the S12 finale, so please be a sweetheart and don't pick the characters from that era. Anything else goes, old and new.

My AO3 account - not only my own works but also my bookmarks etc. - can provide you some ideas as to which fandoms I've been into in the recent years, if you have trouble remembering.

Here's a meme stolen from [personal profile] thisbluespirit because we can all use some easy happy distracting content:

Ask me my top 5 of anything and I'll answer.

My note: These can be fannish or non-fannish, but if non-fannish, please nothing related to personal life(e.g. work, people, places, life events, studies), as this is a public post and I want to remain careful about what I post publicly. If fannish, also rare and obscure fandoms are welcomed, even if you and I are the only people who know about the said fandom!

Note: I've had some issues with my eyes hurting from looking at the computer screen too much, so if I take some time to answer, that may be why.

A meme via [personal profile] thisbluespirit, because I'd like to produce random fannish content without putting too much effort in it.

Give me a fandom and I'll tell you

Favorite Male Character
Favorite Female Character
Least Favorite Character
Favorite Ship
Favorite Friendship
Favorite Quote
Worst Character Death (if any)
This made me so happy you have no idea Moment
Saddest Moment
Favorite Location


Hint If you're struggling to think of fandoms I know besides The Big Obvious One You Can't Miss, any books you know I like (including ones I've requested/received in exchanges or written fanfic about) are game even if I haven't been actively rambling about them here. I'll tell you if I don't know something well enough to answer. If you're not sure if I know a thing, feel free to ask. (No, I don't know any superhero fandoms.)

Everyone's suddenly doing that ultimate trope showdown so here's mine. Not very surprising!

Some comments and musings )

I've been meaning to post entries for a while, but first I was busy with various things and last I got hit by mysterious stomach cramps, and have still been feeling totally out of sorts all day today, though the stomach is starting to settle down, at least. I suspect it must be some low-level stomach bug or other virus that I've got, since if I'd have just eaten the wrong thing, it would be acting differently.

But while I'm too tired to create much content right now, I'm going to do a meme which allows you, dear followers, to help me create some (probably silly) content when I feel better. The meme is via [personal profile] thisbluespirit. Feel free to grab it if you want!


1) Make a list of fifteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment.

2) Ask your f-list to post questions in the comments. For example: "One, nine, and fifteen are chosen by a prophecy to save the world from four. Do they succeed?", "Under what circumstances might five and fourteen fall in love?", "Which character on the list would you most want on your side in a zombie invasion?"

3) After your f-list has stopped asking questions, round them up and answer them using the fifteen characters you selected beforehand, then post them.


(Random note: I really want to eat pizza right now. I suspect it's not really the thing my body needs, even if I do have a frozen pizza in my freezer.)

Seen this around in various journals, including [personal profile] navaan and [personal profile] trobadora. Thought it might be fun!

Pick a question and ask me - and copy the questions to your own journal if you feel like it!


1. What made you start writing fanfic?
2. Which of your own fanfics have you reread the most?
3. Describe the differences between your first fanfic and your most recent fanfic.
4. Do you think your style has changed over time? How so?
5. You've posted a fic anonymously. How would someone be able to guess that you'd written it?
6. Name three stories you found easy to write.
7. Name three stories you found difficult to write.
8. What's your ratio of hits to kudos?
9. What do your fic bookmarks say about you?
10. What's a theme that keeps coming up in your writing?
11. What kind of relationships are you most interested in writing?
12. For E-rated fic, what are some things your characters keep doing?
13. Name three favorite characters to write.
14. You're applying for the fanfic writer of the year award. What five fanfics do you put in your portfolio?
15. Question of your choice!

Meme via [personal profile] cookiegirl, because yay fandom memes and I haven't done in a while. Also, an easy way to create public content that isn't a Write Every Day check-in post! I'm tweaking the definition because I don't watch a lot of movies but I read a huge load of books.

How about we do that thing where you give me a show/moviebook/fandom and I’ll tell you:

my favorite female character
my favorite male character
my favorite book/season/etc.
my favorite episode (if it’s a TV show)
my favorite cast member
my favorite ship
a character I’d die put a reasonable amount of effort into defending
a character I just can’t sympathize with
a character I grew to love
my anti-OTP


Feel free to pick anything you know I've watched/read/enjoyed. Big fandoms as well as tiny fandoms of two are equally welcome! My commenting energies have varied lately, so if I take a while to come back to some comments, don't worry, I'll get there eventually.
