125. Awesome secret! Seriously, that was entertaining. If you write fic...write this. It would be EPIC.
128. The internet makes me feel that way about people in general.
138. I'm much the same way about my pairings. I love all kinds of fic, I'll read any pairing at all, and I love all the wonderful, creative, new perspectives fandoms come up with on the characters and the canon.
But with my own favourite ships, I'm mostly about finding the smut. PORN PLZ! I'm not sure why the sex is important to me with my favourite pairings, except that (besides being hot), the intimacy of sex is rarely paralleled, and I always want to see my fave pairings be so vulnerable for each other.
I started shipping the Doctor/Donna Noble from Doctor Who (see icon) after her first appearance in a Christmas special, and everyone HATED her then. Not only was there NO smut, but all her appearances in fic were to get dumped on. Oh, it drove me insane. I needed smut for those two so bad it hurt. Thank god for series four!
139. My mother got into Who fandom many months before I did, and was SO obnoxiously obsessed with it that I could have strangled her. She watched the DVDs over and over and over and over and over, and it got to the point where I was going to break the goddamned DVD player if I had to hear that STUPID Doctor Who theme song ONE. MORE. FUCKING. TIME.
Then some friends wheedled me into watching it. I love it so much now that the theme song is the MOST played song on my iTunes.
Don't let other [annoying] fans shape your opinions. Make your decision based on the source material. Otherwise, who knows what you could miss?
162. And some people find shows with decent character development fun to write for because they give you more material to work with. The more detail you get on a character, the better able you are to see different directions you could take the characters in, IMO. People are so complex that more information usually just leaves more questions unanswered.
I see nothing wrong with writing for plot-driven shows, but I suspect that what you like is the ability to invent the characters, rather than interpret them.
170. You're not required to only be attracted to straight men. Promise. Hey, the girls get to drool over gay celebs, so why should you think this is creepy?
186. I'd read all my own fic/RPF in a heartbeat. I'd love to know if anyone would ship me with someone hot. Shaaaallow, yup, that's me.
125, 128, 138, 139. 162, 170, 186
