I think I'm being mocked...

If you're the OP, no, you're not. I genuinely wanted to have a conversation.

Ah, okay. Sorry, I'm a tad paranoid.

Well I watch Sherlock and Supernatural, so I'm involved with the SuperWhoLock group, although I have no involvement in the SPN fandom. But my favorite show is Community :D It's just such an offbeat comedy and it's really different from everything else.

And yeah, I write fanfic, original fic, you name it. I'm writing a novel...well, just because. What's your about?

Pets? I wish. I'm allergic to cats, and we're looking at dogs, but that's not going anywhere...

Re: Hi, OP, I'm a Doctor Who fan.

No problem. :) I kind of did start off wanting to "prove" myself, but luckily you're an interesting person.

I've seen all of the Sherlock episodes that have aired on PBS (we don't get BBC here in the Pacific NW), and I did start watching Supernatural a while ago. I tried to do a marathon from the start of season 1, but I kind of underestimated the amount of "horror" that actually made up the genre tag "action-horror" and scared myself half to death with it. I stopped watching it around the middle of season 2, which I keep regretting because it sounds like such a fascinating show, and then I remind myself of the time I stayed up with the lights on until the sun came up because I'm a total wimp.

I haven't seen or really heard about Community, though. What's it about? What makes it so cool? (Also, please take a moment to appreciate the irony of me asking you to gush about a show you like. But seriously, please do, I want to know why I should watch it because I don't normally go for comedies.)

What fandoms do you write in/for?

My novel's about... like, three different things? It's high fantasy, but also very soft science fiction (mostly because it started as sci fi before I copped out of all my plotholes with magic), and there's a big illness in there somewhere, and some political intrigue, and I promise it's a lot more coherent than it sounds right now. I should probably work on it some more today, actually.

Awwww. I'm sorry for you on behalf of adorable kittens everwhere. That's like being allergic to chocolate, or those little presents you see in storybook Christmas stockings. :(

Random person butting in kinda late but a) salmon fish and chips sounds magical and I will have to see if I can find that somewhere in SF, and b) sadly, the horror aspect of SPN rapidly dwindles after the first two seasons. There's maybe one or two super creepy episodes in the next like five seasons, but nothing that beats the greatness of Bloody Mary/Providence.

I hate horror and get terrified super easily but I will always be just a little sad at the lack of horror in later seasons because for some reason, Bloody Mary is like one of my absolute favorite episodes :D!

Re: Hi, OP, I'm a Doctor Who fan.

I think I got them at a place called Anthony's Fish Bar/Grill or something like that, if that helps.

I know, and that's why I kept wanting to go back to it. But... it was just, it was horror, and then I didn't have the time, and then I had other things to do, and then it was an awful lot to watch, and then whine whine whine but the end result is that I probably will pick it up again eventually, but I have way too much on my plate now.

(I know, right? For a long while I was terrified of my bathroom mirror but it was just so cool.)

Yeah, we don't get BBC either. If you ever plan to watch it again, though, try and watch it on Netflix or get the DVD because PBS took some stuff out to fit the run time. Notably in Scandal, they took out a couple of Mycroft lines, and all the talk about Sherlock's past relationships and drug history.

I honestly couldn't have watched Supernatural even last year, with all the freaky stuff. But since I got more into that are with my writing it's been bothering me less. I'm on S4, and it shifts from more of the paranormal scary to blood and gore scary. Idk if that's better or worse.

So, Community. Basically, Jeff Winger is a lawyer who faked his law degree and got disbarred when people found out. He needs to go back and get a real degree, so he enrolls at a Community college. For whatever reason, he takes a Spanish class, and in that class is an attractive woman whom he fails to hit on. She's struggling with Spanish, so he tells her he's a Spanish tutor and that he has a study group. He thinks he's scored a date with her, but she brings five other people with her to the study group. Over time, the seven of them become friends, and mayhem ensures. They're done an episode with a whole-campus paintball battle, a Pulp Fiction spoof, an Apollo 13 tribute, a claymation episode, a couple of cool Halloween episodes, and a ton of other stuff. It's just really wacky and eccentric and you're never sure what's going to happen next week. It's a bit off-kilter and at times more intelligent than a lot of other comedies, so it doesn't really appeal to a big audience. If you ever start watching it, be prepared to face cancellation every week or so.

I've never written Community fanfic, but I have written for a few video game fandoms and Sherlock. (Ironic, right? I can't write the nuances of Inception but I'm more than comfortable writing dialogue for Sherlock Holmes.) Do you write for any fandoms?

Damn, high fantasy is HARD. I'm jealous that you can actually write it. Plus stuff about illnesses is always cool. Is it an actual disease, or is it a condition (like being a zombie or something)? My book's actually political too! It's a mix of historical fiction, sci-fi, and adventure, and if I tried to explain it it would sound like I took acid and then tried to write a history textbook.

And it's all right. Cats and me don't always get on, anyways. I prefer something that likes to be cuddled :3

hates to be *that* Doctor Who fan

but c'mon! You like Community!

What about the youtube series "Untitled Web Series About A Space Traveler Who Can Also Travel Through Time" (aka Inspector SpaceTime)?

Would that also be taboo?
