Have a FFA Friending Meme!
Mar. 11th, 2014 12:36 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Some anons expressed interest in a friending meme, and since I for one always mean to participate in those but never manage to get around to posting, as an incentive and also because I don't mind "outing" myself... here we are!
This is a friending meme for
fail_fandomanon. I also put up a post on LJ at http://ladyairy.livejournal.com/57859.html. I would do one for tumblr too, except that I still have no clue how tumblr works. Sorry!

Date: 2014-03-11 08:44 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Kuroshitsuji, Kushiel's Legacy, Howl's Moving Castle, The Legend of Zelda (all games but especially Ocarina of Time), Kyou Kara Maou (I'm only sixteen eps in but it looks promising), Darkangel Trilogy, Chronicles of Chrestomanci, Fire Emblem (7, 8 and 13), Les liaisons dangereuses and to a lesser extent Slings & Arrows, Harry Potter and A Song of Ice and Fire
Ships (if applicable): Ciel/Sebastian/Elizabeth, Ciel/Sebastian, Ciel/Elizabeth, Sebastian/Elizabeth, Imriel/Sidonie, Sidonie/Amarante, Howl/Sophie, Link/Zelda, Yuuri/Wolfram, Cat/Marianne, too many Fire Emblem ships to list, Sansa/happiness
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: Small fandoms, lately the anime thread and the manga thread, WiPs and other writing threads, discussion of fandoms I've familiar with, Fic recs, Gaming thread, game recs, book recs
What you post about and how often?: I post fairly infrequently- I've started participating in exchanges, so I'll be posting letters. I'd like to start posting about stuff I'm reading/watching, but if I do start that, it's likely to be long-ish posts once in a while.
Anything else you want to talk about: I did list a lot of ships there but I'm very laid back about shipping, and always willing to try something new if it doesn't actively squick me. I'm a big fan of gen as well as porn and much in between. I love theater, opera, and ballet, though I don't get to go as often as I used to. I'm also a giant Tudor history nerd.

Date: 2014-04-21 12:03 pm (UTC)I like Ciel/Sebastian and Wolfram/Yuuri, but there's been a few years since I watched KKM so I don't remember it very clearly. I was annoyed that it seemed to sort of lose steam after a while (I still liked it, but nothing seemed to go anywhere). H/D are on the OTP level for me. I don't tend to go for the het ships in fandom; though there are many canon het ships that I love (I actually do love Howl/Sophie, for example!) I'm usually not a very "active" shipper for them.
I consider myself mostly a manga/anime/Jgame fan, though that has more to do with how I started and the way I do fandom rather than what I'm a fan of.

Date: 2014-03-11 10:58 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Hetalia (mostly), Legend of Zelda (especially ALBW). I'm also into Pokemon, Hatoful Boyfriend, Shingeki no Kyojin, Anno 1790, Nordic noir fiction and horror movies
Ships (if applicable): APH - Norway/Denmark, Norway/Sweden (well, Norway/everybody), Netherlands/Denmark, Netherlands/Japan. LoZ ALBW - Link/Ravio, Link/Irene.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: Anything Hetalia-related, anything LoZ-related. Writing processes, "unfuck my plot", WIP, etc. I lurk anything related to horror and crime genre too.
What you post about and how often: I update once per week or so. Usually about what I'm working on as far as writing goes, what I'm reading, stuff going on in real life... If I had more people on my flist who were actively talking about fandom-related feelings (flailing about fic, or excitement about canon) then I think I would be more comfortable posting about those subjects more.
Anything else you want to talk about: Hetalia fans, please come into my arms and let me love you! ... as long as you have a generally positive attitude about things, please.
no subject
Date: 2014-03-11 11:03 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Naruto, Doctor Who, Utena, Hannibal, Person of Interest, Marathon, Red vs. Blue, Bioshock, various other things in varying capacities
Ships (if applicable): Naruto/Sasuke, Itachi/Anko, Itachi/Kisame, Kakashi/Gai, Durandal/Security Officer, a ton of things in RvB but especially Tucker/Washington, Church/Tex, Carolina/479er (actually 479er and Carolina with all the ladies), and Grif/Simmons
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: WIP threads (both replying and posting), manga threads, general writing threads, game/list threads, gaming threads
What you post about and how often: Uh - on Tumblr fairly frequently about a wide variety of things (including reaction posts to whatever I'm watching), on LJ/DW once or twice a week, depending, and usually about finished fic, brief life stuff, and short reactions to things I'm watching/playing.
Anything else you want to talk about: Yes, I am tl;dr about Marathon!nonny. Come be my friends in namespace, other Marathon nonnies. ;o;

From:(About to be MIA at work for eight hours, but hello!)
Date: 2014-03-11 11:58 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Ace Attorney, Homestuck, Persona 4, the Prince of Tennis, Tales of the Abyss, various other anime/manga (Fullmetal Alchemist, Eyeshield 21, Honey and Clover, Utena, Kuragehime, Touch (the baseball series), Monster, etc), Glee (not currently fannish, but there was a time), the Lymond Chronicles, Sondheim and other musicals, Mainichi Seiten and other BL series, and I enjoy reading Hannibal recaps although I will probably not realistically watch it (too easily scared).
Ships (if applicable): I'm a pretty flexible multishipper, though I tend to read a lot of slash, and enjoy pairings with power imbalances, insecure characters, dubcon, and/or incest! Currently most into Asch/Luke (TotA), any combination of Phoenix/Edgeworth/Apollo/Klavier/Kristoph (AA), and Fujicest (PoT). I have a delicious account with fic I've bookmarked here (currently heavily weighted toward Striders because that was a Thing for a while): https://delicious.com/spywindow
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: fic recs, fic discussion, gaming threads, anime/manga threads, discussion of fandoms I'm familiar with, and unpopular opinions/things you wouldn't admit unanon (usually just lurking).
What you post about and how often: I typically post between one and three times a week! It's usually a combination of talking about real life stuff, things I've watched/read recently, and occasionally making unsolicited fic or music recs.
Anything else you want to talk about: I am probably not the best person to friend if you give/get a lot of comments and expect your flisters to do the same, but if you're okay with a low-commitment mutual lurkership and it seems like we have some common interests, I would really enjoy having more journals to read.
(Also, I don't post a lot about kinkfic on my journal, but I read a lot of it and am definitely not turned off if other people blog about that sort of thing. If you want to get a sense of the stuff I write, what little fic I've written is under the penname "Caeslin" on AO3.)

Date: 2014-03-12 12:15 am (UTC)Sites you'd like to be added on: Tumblr (missmelaniebee), here if you want although I genuinely never post here
Fandoms: Mainly music - The Cars, Belle and Sebastian, Queen (tangentially), Architecture in Helsinki.
Ships (if applicable): Bellllllliot.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: WIP Thread, Tinhat Theories, TYWAU, ATG Game
What you post about and how often: On my Tumblr? Fully 1/3 dedicated to the Cars, and the rest is either music I like or, occasionally, personal stuff. A fair bit of Belle and Sebastian too. I don't reblog stuff very often.
Anything else you want to talk about: If you are a fellow rare band RPFer, I will automatically like you. But anyway, follow me if you like!
no subject
Date: 2014-03-12 02:08 am (UTC)Fandoms: Homestuck, True Detective, Utena, manga/anime generally, All The SF/F Books
Pairings: Actively anti-ship EriFef in Homestuck and Rust/Marty in True Detective, apart from that a flexible multishipper
Favorite/Most Common FFA Threads: give book recs, recently True Detective, anime/manga threads, both ask for and post fic recs
What I post about and how often: How often varies wildly. What includes recipes, book/film/TV/comics reviews, SFF fandom stuff.
no subject
Date: 2014-03-17 04:28 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2014-03-12 04:25 am (UTC)Fandoms: Harry Potter, Doctor Who (esp. Classic Who and the Gallifrey audio series), Homestuck, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Fallen London, Analogue: A Hate Story, Girl Genius, and I have recently gotten into Sleepy Hollow and Almost Human.
Ships (if applicable): I'm both a shameless multishipper and a terribly oppressed genficcer. I'm not really sure how that works! I will only list major ships.
HP: uh. The only two I actively care about are Godric Gryffindor/Rowena Ravenclaw and Helga Hufflepuff/Rowena Ravenclaw. I think the canon ships are okay, but will read pretty much anything. Unshippily, Neville is one of my favorite characters ever and I complain about A Certain Fic's popularity whenever it comes up.
DW: Doctor/Master, Two/Jamie, Liz Shaw/Three/the Brigadier, Four/Romana, Tegan/Turlough, Romana/Leela, Leela/Narvin.
Homestuck: DO NOT MAKE ME CHOOSE SHIPS. My favorite characters are Vriska, Terezi, Karkat, and Jade. I also think the Ancestors are really neat. (Re: the Vriska Wars I apparently missed in the fandom: I like her because she's terrible; I am pretty much incapable of defending her.)
JSMN, FL, Analogue: I LIKE EVERYTHING. SMALL FANDOMS, HAVE MORE THINGS. (I am one of the Quiet Deviless nonnies and am happy to inform you that I HAVE WON HER TO MY SIDE.)
Sleepy Hollow: I really want there to be a Katrina/Ichabod/Abbie OT3 part of this fandom, but I backed the hell out of the tumblr tags and am kind of scared to look. I am totally down with both Ichabod/Katrina and Ichabod/Abbie, though.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA:
I jump around a lot? I like talking tropes and what tropes I like/don't like/think can be done well despite never, ever being done well. Occasionally, I filk. (I haven't been doing that much lately; some of the other filkers are AMAZING, though.) I also like giving people recs if I have them. My favorite kind of wank in the entire world is publishing wank, mostly because it involves people who really ought to know better, but somehow don't.
What you post about and how often: Ugh, I don't post enough. Lately my LJ's just been a wall of DEAR EXCHANGE WRITER or OH LOOK, RECS. I have some recs I'd like to post soonish, but I am moving right now, so I am exhausted.
When I am posting, I tend to bitch and/or ramble about writing. I basically never, ever, ever signal boost or reblog-if-you-like-puppies, even if I like puppies.
Every now and then my family is a bunch of assholes, at which point I may vent behind flock and an LJ cut. I am not remotely offended if y'all ignore this. (Recent assholometry readings have been pretty low, though!)
Anything else you want to talk about:
I will defend worldbuilding and OCs to the death.
I really like epic music.
My two favorite characters ever are Neville Longbottom and Odysseus, and tropes that remind me of them tend to make me sit up and pay attention to an otherwise ridiculous story.
Herds of teal deer follow me wherever I go. It's a gift... and a curse. (Mostly it's a curse during fic exchanges. ...Okay mostly it's just a curse in general.)
no subject
Date: 2014-03-12 04:31 am (UTC)Fandoms: The Eagle, all Sutcliff fandoms (I am not, however, particularly Grumpy), Star Trek, The Professionals, Due South, Vikings, SF/F in general... and within the last week, apparently Attack on Titan. And lots more! Special love for historical or SF/F fandoms. And buddy cops!
Ships (if applicable): With the proviso that I will read pretty much anything, my favorite pairings tend to be slash: Marcus/Esca, Alexios/Hilarion, Kirk/Spock, Bodie/Doyle, Fraser/Kowalski...
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: I am a lurky lurker mostly, but fic recs, canon recs, gaming (and Fallen London), or anything that brings the GSNs out of the woodwork.
What you post about and how often: On Tumblr, I am often found reblogging random hilarious things and pictures of cute animals, etc. I don't post much original content to Tumblr. On LJ/DW I post every couple of days, usually ramblings about whatever I'm reading or watching or playing or writing (or not writing, as the case may be). There is often language nerdery. That's how you know it's me!
Anything else you want to talk about: I think possibly I have friended everyone in Eagle and/or Sutcliff fandom, but if I haven't we should totally be friends! And if you think you might like Eagle and/or Sutcliff fandom, friend me anyway! I will do my best to convince you! Also I always like reading people who are into video gaming fandoms! (Perhaps this will motivate me to play through my backlog so I can play the new Phoenix Wright game.)

Date: 2014-03-12 06:41 am (UTC)If you primarily use Tumblr for text posts, I can follow you there too!
Fandoms: Shingeki no Kyojin, Utena, Loveless, Kuroshitsuji, sf print canons (Vorkosigan Saga, Alliance-Union, The Culture, Bel Dame Apocrypha, Takeshi Kovacs, etc.)
I'm also into, to list canons I comment in threads about on meme, Game of Thrones, Inception, Hannibal, Princess Tutu, Maiden Rose, Fallen London, and Hilary Tamar.
Ships: Gen and multishipping! In particular, I have a thing for self-aware, emotionally manipulative pragmatists/more overtly powerful people under social or legal restraints.
Primary character interests for my bigger fandoms: Annie, Hanji, Armin, Ymir, Historia, Eren, Mikasa, Erwin, Bertolt for Shingeki no Kyojin / Mal, Ariadne, Saito, Yusuf for Inception / Bedelia, Abigail, Hannibal, and Will...'s perception for Hannibal / Margaery, Cersei, Sansa, Olenna, Brienne, Catelyn, Shae, Tywin for Game of Thrones
Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: anything related to my fandoms, narrative/expectation/genre, interpretative differences, explain-a-fannish-phenomenon, books and manga, thoughts on
yaoifemslash, fic discussion both specific and broadWhat you post about and how often: 90% fandom (media reactions, digressive thoughts, fic, uh I do not think exchange letters count as blogging). I fear the more telling answer is "not often", but I really enjoy reading through my flist, and I'm happy to add you regardless of whether you add me. :D

Date: 2014-03-12 04:34 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Elementary, Doctor Who, MCU, BtVS, lots of smaller fandoms -- I'm super multifannish, so check my tags
Ships (if applicable): I'm a diehard multishipper and OT3 fan.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: Book Recs/What Are You Reading?, Fic Research, Venting, various game threads (especially Fannish Osmosis), and I like to read the Unanon/Unpop threads after the post closes to catch up on all the wank I missed
What you post about and how often: I post maybe once or twice a month (although I'd like to post more), lately mostly about books I'm reading, and sometimes about TV or movies I watch; I'd like to start writing fic more again but need to find the time/prompts to do so. I sometimes complain about RL. I love to talk to people in my circle about what they're working on and reading/watching.
Anything else you want to talk about: I seem to have switched over to being mostly a consumer of fannish things, rather than a producer, which annoys me a little bit -- I'm hoping having more online friends might help me start making more things. I love theater (especially Shakespeare), languages/linguistics, and cooking.

Date: 2014-03-12 08:22 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Right now, I'm deep into hockey fandom, and I'd love to befriend some hockey people. I'm also into the Raven Cycle, Hunger Games, MCU, Harry Potter, Elementary, and Downton Abbey. I need more book fandoms, especially good YA and historical fiction. I have a love/hate relationship with Teen Wolf.
Ships (if applicable): I'm really flexible, although I lean in a rair(er) pair direction with hockey RPF.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: TYWAU/UO, fic recs, trope/meta discussion, stuff related to my fandoms, SJWankery, oh silly tumblr, cooking threads
What you post about and how often: specific fandoms, fandom meta, kink/porn meta, writing about writing. I'm working veeery slowly through a kink bingo amnesty card and writing about it. I don't post often enough.
Anything else you want to talk about: I complain about SJWs on meme, but it's just venting. CNTW is my screed. I love talking about fandom, but not in an OTW "isn't it so great that knotting fic takes the power away from the kiriarchy of white male writers?" way. I worry that my dirtybadwrong porn isn't dirty or bad enough.

Date: 2014-03-13 06:39 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Mostly live action SFF TV (current or past), but occasionally old superhero comics, and always old B&W and silent movies.
The new shows I'm watching are Person of Interest, Arrow, and Orphan Black. The older fandoms that have my attention currently are 90s Star Trek (especially DS9), Xena (Callistoooo), and Smallville (don't judge).
Ships (if applicable): Gen/multishipper at heart. Odo/Quark, Sara Lance/Felicity Smoak, and Lionel Luthor/anyone.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: Small fandom threads, unpopular opinions, research threads, and any threads about robots/AI.
What you post about and how often: On Dreamwidth and LJ I comment frequently, but post in my own journal rarely. When I do, my posts are mostly about vidding or tl;dr thoughts about whatever canon I'm into. I intend to try to post more, but I always intend that. I haven't entirely figured out Tumblr yet; right now my Tumblr is mostly reblogged Star Trek posts.
Anything else you want to talk about: Sometimes I want to talk about SFF novels (most recently Worm, the Vorkosiverse, and Greg Egan). I'm always interested in the relationship between technology and humans, particularly in how design shapes and interacts with group behavior. Also I use Linux, and sometimes I cry about the vidding software I use (Blender -- yes, I know it's not meant for video editing).

Date: 2014-03-13 11:41 pm (UTC)Fandoms: Assorted comics/BDs/graphic novels (Demon Knights, Yoko Tsuno and Locke&key in particular), Benjamin January series and other books, Leverage, history and mythology and likely others I'm forgetting.
Ships (if applicable): I'm fine with most ships and gen. (Hannibal Barca/Scipio Africanus OTP!)
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: Small fandoms, WIPs, Unfuck my plot/research, canon recs, lately the Agents of SHIELD reaction threads, art threads, music threads
What you post about and how often:Almost entirely fannish things. I do a reading meme every wednesday but don't post all that much outside of those.
Anything else you want to talk about: I love fandom in general and how enthusiastic about their canons everyone is.
no subject
Date: 2014-03-14 12:08 pm (UTC)Fandoms: SPN. I'm also currently watching Grimm, GoT, Breaking Bad, Legend of the Seeker, Farscape, Trek TOS and the original BSG. SPN and Trek are the only ones I'm entirely up to date on. I also love cheesy movies -- the worse, the better.
Ships (if applicable): Dean/Castiel. I'm serially monogamous when it comes to ships. I sort of passively ship Dean with everyone he's not related to, but I mostly read D/C.
Favorite FFA Threads/Threads you're most likely to be found in on FFA: Goss threads. Skin/haircare and food related threads. Unanon threads. App recs, boardgame stuff. I often hang out on the personal post, too.
What you post about and how often: Like I said, my journals are barely holding on. :') I mostly post privately on DW, but I'd love for something to prompt me to start posting more openly again! Hanging out on FFA has definitely helped me worry a bit less over how my opinions will be received.
Anything else you want to talk about: I think this pretty much covers it. Though I guess I should point out that I'm chill about shipping, even though my own preferences are pretty fixed. I like to talk about interpersonal dynamics all the livelong day.
