Are you kidding with that picture?

I'd hit it.

So would Aslan. :)

The Hermoine/Hagrid is the BEST SECRET EVER.

Edited 2008-07-09 03:06 (UTC)

Okay, let's try this again, since not being able to edit the previous comment really ruined the effect and gave it an entirely different spin. :'D

By that logic, then that means Aerith got in the way of Cloud/Tifa for me. And, really, she didn't; if anything, she brought them together. I used to ship Cloud/Aerith, hated Tifa, thought she got in the way of that pairing, blah blah blah. But I was fourteen and by all means completely irrational. Gave it a couple years, grew up a little, decided Tifa was my favorite character (with Aerith a close second), began shipping Cloud/Tifa, though I have a tiny bit of a soft spot left for Cloud/Aerith as well.

...Point is, you can have your ships and like other characters, too. Stop looking at them as "GETTING IN THE WAY!!!" and try to find other things you like about them. The way I saw it, when I'd begun liking Tifa (and was making the transition to Cloud/Tifa shipper), I saw Tifa as his friend who clung so desperately to him because he was all she had left of Nibelheim.

Edited 2008-07-09 03:20 (UTC)

Christ, if you think you're the only one that feels that way you obviously haven't been around fandom very long. It's actually pretty fucking annoying how many damn people feel that way. You're not original in the least, sweetheart.

125. I KNOW, RIGHT?! Ugh.

I have an old pair of boots that I'm planning on playing with until they look enough like that to make me happy.

101. I'm here!!!! I'm here! MY favorite ep is the one with the Hobo following the lady around! And, of course, To Serve Man. I feel terrible for not knowing the name!
119. BLASPHEMY! BLASPHEMY & CALUMNY, I SAY!
137. lol wut
161. HERESY! HERESY, BLASPHEMY, SLANDER AND CALUMNY!

You wound me! Heh.

OO OO ME ME ME

I actually like Mary because OT3 for the win. But yes, fandom. NOW PLS.

;_;

I'm half-convinced he is a sekrit girl. It would explain why he's so confident that Light will never find his Real Identity. XD

*shrugs* To each their own. Personally, I wasn't moved much by the Ninth Doctor. I got into the show because some of my friends begged me to watch it so they'd have someone to squee with. I watched the first series for that, and because watching the episodes together was something I could do with my mother.

The overall show was right up my aisle - I liked the stories, generally - but I never found the Doctor that interesting a character. If Eccleston had stayed on, I don't know if I would have kept watching for long. I won't say he was boring, but he just didn't snag me much. I was more thrilled by the Daleks than Nine or Rose.

It wasn't until I saw Tennant that I decided to keep watching. And yes, this initially had a lot to do with finding him HOT LIKE BURNING - I won't pretend otherwise - but his performance over time is what's made the Doctor a truly compelling character to me, with emotional depth that I hadn't paid attention to before. Tennant's enthusiasm and love for the character helps a lot.

Ten has made me interested in Classic Who, and I can now retroactively find Nine that much more interesting. So no, I don't especially want him to go yet; but it'll happen when it happens. (Although anyone who was REALLY worried about it at the end of, "Stolen Earth," must have locked themselves in their rooms all year to avoid spoilers.)

That said, I do feel for Nine fans, having only gotten one series with him. I'd be pretty bummed by that, were it me. Boo to actors' schedules getting in the way. *Donna!angst*

Who fans like you are awesome. May I friend you?

128. HOLY SHIT it's him!!! I LOVE him!!! He was just about my favourite character in the whole bloody movie.

...And I'm ashamed to admit I can't remember his name.

101. I already posted about how much win TZ is, but would also like to say thanks, OP, for posting it, becacuse you gave me the idea to go see if there's comms for it. Do want.

107. OMGLOL.

140. Not the only one. I couldn't even finish it. Just skimmed it. And my God, that epilogue. x_x

163. Much love for the teal deer in the corner. Hee.

I knew I was going to fold in keeping anon about this.

As far as I know, there's not really an active LJ community, which is sad.

101. If anyone mocks you for liking the goddamn Twilight Zone, they fail and need to be punched in the ovaries. Yes, even if they are male.

104. None of that is anything to be ashamed of. At all. ♥ Go on, have fun~

108. I don't see why people make such a big deal of it, myself. It's not like Fandom Secrets is in some kind of vacuum that anonymous will never see anyway.

110. I have to agree with the fact that that is a gorgeous drawing, at least. *A*bb

114. It being not canon =/= it being OOC. It's possible to have two characters who NEVER interact in canon, throw them together in a story, keep their personalities intact, and have it work. Sorry, but this is true. And also, yanno, uh, just because people don't have a REASON to ship two characters? Doesn't mean they shouldn't. They enjoy it. THAT IS NOT A BIG DEAL. If you don't like the pairing, if you don't think it makes sense, if you think it could never work, then that's fine- don't read fics or look at fanart for that pairing.

I ship some characters that hardly ever interact, too, just because I like the idea of it. THIS IS FANDOM: if I am enjoying myself and not being a douche to other people, I AM NOT DOING IT WRONG. Sheesh.

115. That is strangely cute. =D

116. ... Isn't Sephiroth the one who gets in the way of Cloud/Aerith? Or an understandable dislike of necrophilia. There's that too.

117. I'm pro-Tennant and severely pro-Eccleston. But really, if you think Ten doesn't take anything seriously, I'd be forced to conclude you don't actually pay attention to the episodes. Yes, I admit he is childish- I like that, for Ten. He's not the BEST Doctor- that's reserved for Tom Baker, by far- but part of the point of Doctor Who is that each incarnation is different. This one is very emotional, loves everything wildly, can get very upset and angry, is pretty damn manic, etc. I kind of prefer Nine myself, but I think Ten truly has his place, and I too look forward to Eleven. :>

119. Methinks someone needs to learn what a Gary-Stu actually is. I don't care if you personally do not like the show, but COME ON. The Doctor? Is the main character. Canon main character =/= Gary Stu.

122. I SAW THE PICTURES ON THIS SECRET

THEN I SAW "I'D SO FUCKING HIT IT"

AND I SPAZZED FOR LIKE TWO MINUTES BEFORE ACTUALLY READING THE SECRET ITSELF

I ♥ you. I ♥ you so hard, share your Kururu love, and want to be friends. IF THAT DOESN'T SOUND CREEPY, THAT IS, HAHA. ;;

Also, hot picture is hot.

123. I'm sure other people have responded better than I could to this secret, so I have nothing constructive to say. Just: Farscape secret LOVE IS STRONG ♥

125. ... Should this be a not!secret?

138. That is an ADORABLE pic. Like. Ridiculously cute levels of adorable. *^* ♥

145. I love this secret a lot. XDDDD

146. SEX APPEAL IS NOT THE ENEMY OF FEMINISM. SEX APPEAL IS NOT THE ENEMY OF FEMINISM.

Just felt that needed to be said. YES, TO FEMINISTS WHO THINK THAT, TOO. Both sides need to stop being stupid on this issue. Objectification is a problem, not acknowledging that a certain person or thing is hot.

148. Then you're doing well staying out of the fandom. That means other people can do what they like, you can avoid it because you don't like it, and everyone can be happy. As long as neither side is being a douche about it.

152. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

154. I feel kind of annoyed when someone personally disliking/being bored with/wanting to see the ending of the show says that's a good reason for the show to end as quickly as possible, anyway. And your personal wishes are more important than every other fan of the show because...? If you don't like something or think it's boring, stop watching/reading it. Move on to other things. You'll survive its existance, and other people can still enjoy it.

160. I laugh at it sometimes, but it just doesn't catch my interest. That'd be like calling anyone who doesn't like a particular show with a female main character sexist. o_O;; NOT THAT THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, COS I'M PRETTY SURE IT DOES.

Canon main character =/= Gary Stu.

This is officially the stupidest statement I have ever read.

Every time I see Narnia incest fic, a little part of my four year old self dies.

113 - i used to be fucking obsessed with these guys.

132 - he is hot

166 - fuck yeah eraserhead

101. I am an out and proud Twilight Zone enthusiast. Yes.

166. Ugh, dude.

148.) Agreed. And euww. No thanks.

114) As a slasher, around 99.9% of all my ships are non-canon. Doesn't mean I like them any less. I'm pretty tired and since this is the 11th fucking page, no one will read this anyway, I'm just gonna say: see above comments on your secrets (the ones that say more than just 'OMG YES', of course). Besides, you're obviously reading the wrong fics if the characters are OOC. Clue-by-four: stay away from The Pit.

141) Could you tell me why? I'm not planning an attack on you or anything, I'm just totally curious. Because if you're talking about the newest season 5 episode, there are definitely some points I'd agree with you on. Points concerning character development (yes, that's right. It continues to happen after the first fucking season) and promo pics. Because seriously, was the new intern drunk and high when he edited those photos? "Oh, hey, just let me fire up Photoshop...and my bong."

153) *snorfle* HA. Send completed fic to: falling_colors @ livejournal.com

148. Narnia was my childhood, yeah (basically it's what got me into fantasy)... but somehow, seeing all that incest in the fandom doesn't squick or surprise me at all. I think I was probably shipping it unconsciously or something. :P

162. The typo rants get the oldest for me. I mean, come on, it's a typo. Everybody does that sometimes. :/

Yes! YES! Very much agree with you...
*gonna shut her yap before saying anything stupid*

Ditto ~~with the wraith of an angry cod!~~

Yes, yes, yes and yes!!!

140.- AGREE

144.- holy crap me too XD

148.- thus is why I don't actually read Narnia fics

110. This secret makes me sad. It's shoujo. It's supposed to be that way. Yes, TSK is my most favorite manga ever, but Fullmoon was also good. As was Shinkuro. Look at the whole picture and not just the ending.

Oh, and canon sues? please..

148. The only reason I'm into the fandom is for the Peter/Susan. *is slightly ashamed but not really*

#161 - I'm with you on that one. I have a friend who is a massive fan and I just don't care for his stuff.
