5 inspired me to chime in. You aren't alone, and that's not even an entirely new idea. I'm currently playing with an idea as a side-thing in a novel I'm working on, annd..... I *knew* I'd read something in the Bible about it. I looked up the verse. Hebrews 12:2 calls Jesus (God) the "author and perfecter of (our) faith" -- I know that it specifically regards the Christian faith and you may not be into that at all, but I thought you might find the "God as author" bit in an actual religious text interesting.
6. I enjoyed the Gungrave anime, but I'm not really up on the Gungrave fandom. I immediately assumed you're meaning slash because I assume that's how most people in fandom think these days (at the same time *really* hoping that you didn't, because I didn't see them that way and I'm wondering if I'm alone) - though you might not be and I might just be assuming things. Then, I couldn't help thinking "So, you found in fandom a very good friend who wound up betraying you and now you must kill them/you are destined to kill each other." Then I thought "Wow, I think I had a similar experience." I'm over it now - thinking about it made me laugh.
26. You do know that if they were real and could see this, they'd kill you, right? (Especially Asuka).
Just a Lurker...
