we could have had it all

Had a fabulous evening out with [personal profile] fly_to_dawn, who's staying with me at the moment, as well as [livejournal.com profile] la_esmeralda_ and [livejournal.com profile] kepp0xy. It's good to be back in the London area! <3

Oh, are we doing the fandoms-as-relationships meme again? Ganked from [personal profile] musesfool:

The one who seduced you, screwed you over, broke your heart in a million pieces, and laughed about it.

Torchwood. *fistshake*

The old flame you don't see very often any more but whom you still really enjoy getting together with for a few drinks and maybe a pleasant nostalgic romp:

Harry Potter is kind of my forever fandom, I never seem to be quite done with it. <3

The mysterious dark one whom you used to sit up with talking until 3 AM at weird coffee houses and with whom you were quite smitten until you realized s/he really was fucking crazy:

BSG, probably.

The one you spent a whole weekend in bed with and who drank up all your liquor and whom you'd still really like to get with again, although you're relieved s/he doesn't actually live in town:

Star Trek Reboot - not a full-time fandom for me, but I had a blast with it and can't wait for the new film.

The steady:

Doctor Who. It keeps coming back around to that big blue box, in the end.

The alluring stranger whom you've flirted with at parties but have never gotten really serious with:

Community - I need to finish the half-done vid on my hard drive, at least.

The one you hang out with and have vague fantasies about maybe having a thing with, but ultimately you're just good buddies:

Good Omens. I love the book, but my fannish reserves for it got depleted pretty quickly. Also Sarah Connor Chronicles - the show is so perfect it's difficult for me to find much to say.

The one your friends keep introducing you to and who seems like a hell of a cool person except it's never really gone anywhere:

Farscape. I am still working my way through s3 - it's awesome, but kind of hard going. I'll get there eventually!

The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at them and thinking, "How the hell did they land all these cool people?"

Supernatural.

The one who gave you the best damned summer of your life and against whom you measure all other potential partners:

Harry Potter.

The one you recently met at a party and would like to get to know better:

The Marvel films, especially the Avengers-related stuff.

The old flame that you wouldn't totally object to hooking up with again for a one night romp if only they'd clean up a bit:

Merlin - I'm still kiiind of invested in the show, but much less whole-heartedly. It wouldn't take all that much to win me back, though!

Your hot new flame:

Avatar TLA is probably the newest big fandom for me, though that's been a while now.

The one who stole your significant other:

Oh, a bunch. Hawaii 5-0, Inception, Sherlock, Game of Thrones, bandom. I'm glad you guys are having fun, but how dare you not cater to my whims! *g*

Farscape is SUCH hard going. I love it like crazy but I'm still stuck partway through season 4--and I was stuck at the end of s3 for a while, because there's just too much PAIN and EMOTIONS and PAIN for me to mainline it the way I usually do TV. I mean, I was enjoying it passionately, but it was also grinding me down to a nub. So much pain--and not manpain, ACTUAL pain, for everyone! So convincingly acted! One of these days though, when I am more emotionally stable (oh that glorious far off day), I'm totally going to finish it.

The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at them and thinking, "How the hell did they land all these cool people?"

Supernatural.


I am CONTINUALLY DYING at how many people have said this on my reading list. Like, DYING.

(My "fannish experience" doesn't WORK with this meme, but if I did it, I would say the exact same thing there.)

Oh my god, right there with you on the Torchwood one and the Supernatural. I feel like I need to watch the later just because EVERYONE I know does!

And yes, Sherlock sort of stole half if not all of the Doctor Who fandom. I feel like they're fighting and banging at the same time.

I am there with the Supernatural thing. Well, not so much now because a lot of people I know got disillusioned with it, but once upon a time it stole everyone, and I was sad.

What a cute meme! Harry Potter is my steady, forever fandom, from back before I even knew what a fandom was. *sigh* Star Trek (especially Voyager and DS9) is my old flame. We are currently having quite a romp now that the full franchise streams free with my Amazon Prime subscription. My hot new flame is Who, and I've very much enjoyed binging on it since New Years. Here's to a long and happy relationship! I don't see it up there, but the embarrassing first fling that I just can't quite give up is Twilight. It was what first introduced me to the concept of fic and fandom, and even though it's full of crazies, I met some of my best friends in the world via Twi.

fly_to_dawn, I love your avi! Mind if I borrow it in the future?

They're always there for us when we need them, aren't they?

OH. And after your Tumblr post about Garak and Bashir, I can totally see that! I never would have guessed it before!

Totally sharable - miss-jaffacake on LJ made it, so if you credit her it should all be fine. Isn't it great? :D

Yes, it's perfect for me! Thank you for the info!

Marvel is totally my hot new flame, too. All exciting with unexpected depths and sexiness...
