Fandom-Related Questions

Taken from Tumblr and made into a meme because I do like prattling about my fandoms.

A: Your current OTP
Andy Rourke/Morrissey. Because of my inflated sense of justice and reasons.

B: A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind
Andy Rourke/Johnny Marr
Can’t remember who it really was that changed my mind, but I’m pretty sure it must’ve been someone on the LJ Morrissey Slash comm.

C: A pairing you wish you shipped, but just can't
Johnny Marr/Morrissey
I’d have so much to read and blogs to reblog stuff from and fanart and everything. But no. U brain, y u no make life easier for urself?

D: What was the first thing you ever contributed to a fandom?
The Adventure of the Giant Rat of Sumatra in classic Sherlock Holmes fandom. Symptomatic for my future endeavours and exemplifying my woeful sense of humour.

E: Have you added anything stupid/cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what?
Oh yes, tons. In Holmes fandom that was practically all I ever contributed to it. All pastiches and parodies.
And in my current fandom: Epic Moments of The Smiths' History in the form of rage comics. I don’t think you can get more stupid than that. (though the stories are all based on facts, unbelievably enough).

F: What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom? What fandom was it?
Hmm, all my fandom fascinations seem to last for about 3-4 years. Except the current one. I got into The Smiths around 1999, it lasted till about 2005 and now it’s bloody back and when I say now I mean since 2011 and it's twice as bad *iz doomed*.

G: What was your first fandom?
The Smiths

H: Do you prefer real-life TV shows or animated TV shows?
Don't have a preference.

I: Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?
No.

J: Name a fandom you didn’t care/think about until you saw it all over tumblr
I'm immune to Tumblr propaganda. In other words, there's no such fandom.
Although there's a pairing, namely Capsicoul (LOL).

K: How do you feel about the other people in your current fandom(s)?
A bunch of perverted weirdos. They're all really cool.

L: Your favorite fanartist/author gives you one request, what do you ask for?
Author - 100.000 words epic involving OTP, adventures, drama and humour (and occasional smut) with a happy ending.
Fanartist - OTP smut (I'm easy like that).

Needless to say, no one ever grants my wishes.

M: A person who got you into a fandom and what fandom they pulled you in to
I've always managed to find trouble on my own. Although, for the newest fandom I'm tentatively peeking into I must thank sallycandance.

N: Your favorite fandom (for the people; not the thing you fangirl/fanboy over)
All my fandoms have been great when it comes to people in them. So no favourities here.

O: Choose a song at random, what ship does it remind you of?
What do you mean at random? Random from my memory? mp3 player? CD collection? YouTube? the one that is randomly on the radion now (OK, this one doesn't count, the radio is turned off)?
This is too difficult. Next question. Plus, random songs don't remind me of pairings usually.

P: Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)
Soul-bonding *trololol*.
Seriously though (and in my current fandom): Morrissey meets Andy before he meets Johnny. And one day I'm gonna write it and it's gonna be epic.

Q: A ship you’ve abandoned and why
I abandon ships when I abandon fandoms. Although in Holmes // Sherlock fandom I still take interest in, I'm no longer interested in Holmes/Watson. I prefer the relationship as friendship.

R: A pairing you ship that you don’t think anyone else ships
I've got a history of latching onto weird pairings. Where to begin...

Malcolm Reed/T'Pol (ST: Enterprise)
Abe Sapien/John Myers (Hellboy movies)
Handy Andy/Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen (Changing Rooms) - haaa, you didn't see that coming! *is forever alone with this one*
Alex Krycek/Dana Scully (The X-Files) - well, there may be 5 other people
Alex Krycek/John Byers (The X-Files) - 2 other people
Andy Rourke/Morrissey - 3 other people? Oh, that's probably too hopeful an estimation.

S: What's a headcanon you have?
Jesus, the grammar in this one *winces*.
I assume the question is: 'what headcanon do you have?' Well, depends on the fandom, obviously. For my current fandom: Morrissey is a bit hysterical INTP (which only means he's really 5w4 or 4w5), Andy is ISFP, Mike ESTP, Johnny ESTP.

Is it still headcanon if it's the truth, though?

T: What are your favorite male/male ships or female/female ships?
Excluding current fandom:

female/female: Lora/Yori (Tron) and Anne Shirley/Diana Barry (Anne of Green Gables)
male/male: Lee Nicholas/Tony Foster (Tanya Huff's Smoke... series) and Joseph Chandler/Emerson Kent (Whitechapel)

U: What are your favorite male/female ships?
Malcolm Reed/T'Pol I mentioned earlier. Not that there are any fics about it. Well, maybe two or three.

V: Do you have any 3-way ships? If so, what?
Nope.

W: 5 favorite characters from 5 different fandoms
Alex Krycek (The X-Files)
Victor Mansfield (Once a Thief)
Tom Foss (Kyle XY)
Cory Raines (Highlander)
the Robber (Shot in the Face)

I assure you there's no pattern here. Just one big coincidence. Really.

X: 3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms
William T. Spears/Sebastian Michaelis (Kuroshitsuji)
Bertie Wooster/Reginald Jeeves (P.G. Wodehouse's books)
Lestrade/Gregson (any Holmes incarnation)

Y: A fandom you’re in but have no ships from
Uhh, Downton Abbey most likely.

Z: What's a ship that you want to ship publicly, but everyone on tumblr hates it so you keep your mouth shut about it?
What's a ship, that is a question...

What ship do I want to ship publicly but I keep quiet? I don't think there is such a ship. When I want to ship a pairing, I just do and troll everyone about it. There's no stopping me *ahahahhahhha*
