What was your first fandom love(s)? Your first ship(s)?

On livejournal my first was probably Kingdom Hearts, since it was through Uzumaki's fic that I even realized LJ had fic on it. Back then it was all the big names of KH fandom. Karmacitadel. Orisghost. Fruchiseka. Etc. Etc. Obviously, my first ship was Riku/Sora, because that was the dear heart of the fandom at the time. Fandom in general was different, namely because I was obsessed with Inuyasha fanfic sites when I was eleven/twelve. Iridescent Dreams had some pretty good fic on it and through Inuyasha I found Yu Yu Hakusho and Fruits Basket and many others. Somewhere in all of this was a flirtation with Harry Potter fic and my first discovery of slash, which made me blush a lot and feel guilty because back then I'd been raised Catholic all my life and was under the impression that gay people would all burn in hell.

Yeah, my mother was spectacular.

So my first fandoms in general were Inuyasha and Harry Potter. First fandom on LJ was Kingdom Hearts.

First pairings were Inuyasha/Kagome and Lily/James. First pairing on LJ was Riku/Sora.

...Good times.

In other news, I started my period, which is awesome as hell and one of the most famous PJO fan artists did art of my fic. Since she pimped that fic I have gained forty+ new followers on my writing blog and twenty something on my personal blog. Also, the notes on the fic went from 27 to 240 262. Yeah. Yeah. Just, holy shit.

2013 Scrapbook! I was kind of bad about updating my 2012 one, but it was a handy way of keeping track of the fic I'd written at any rate, so here it is again! Let's hope I update it more this year. It's pretty empty right now because I've yet to really write any fic or read any books or watch many movies when I'm not just putting them on as I fall asleep or play many video games and well, you get the picture. So yay!

As a reminder---  Italicized titles = enjoyed muchly, bold titles = love, titles with an asterisk = OBSESSION and titles in brackets are re-watches/re-reads. And lastly, strikethough = DISLIKE. Adding a video game, personal writing, and a fanvid section. Since it takes me months to finish a game, I'm going to include the gameplay time along with which games I've played that month. Goals are: read at the very least ten new books this year, finish two video games, and beat last years total word count of 130k.




( 2013 Scrapbook )

First, I would like to warn you that I started writing this entry on the 18th, so... yeah. There's that. Second, it is deceptively long. Those lj cuts just cannot be trusted.



So, last night (Monday the 17th) I picked up Catching Fire- thinking that I'd read a chapter or so and drift off to sleep? Yeah, see, that didn't happen. What DID happen is I marathon read the entire freaking thing between the hours of 5-9am. Yeah. Why I was trying to READ A BOOK in an attempt to put myself to sleep at five in the morning is beyond me. I have no excuses. And I don't feel like cutting so no spoilers but OH MY GOD, I LOVE FINNICK. I mean, I knew I would. I'd been spoiled enough about him that I knew he'd be a favorite character but holy crap, I loved him. Way more than I like any of the other characters and I don't even know why.

The books kind of annoy me in parts (my ear they reconstructed can hear the force field? Really, Katniss?) but again, I am astounded by how much I just COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN. It just really reels you in- like, I'm not even gonna lie, I'm not the BIGGEST fan of Katniss. She could be a stronger character, and I think if the whole love triangle thing was out of the way she'd seem less shallow and Bella Swan-esque. (Okay, I'm sorry, comparing them was too much. These books are actually better than Twilight.) But she does damn well for a girl thrown into this kind of conflict- and again, I usually hate first person so much. Like, I usually can't even get into it unless it's written really well, and like- parts of this definitely are. There are some Mary Sue elements there, but they don't make up her character.

Anyway. I digress. FINNICK IS AWESOME. Now I have to go read Mockingjay so I don't keep myself awake again.

Annnd,  halcyon_iota   asked me a couple more questions from this meme, so here are those answers.

( Q & A )


Lol, Repo/Hunger Games crossover would be kind of epic. Finished Mockingjay. (Tuesday the 18th) I was sadfaced. It's like clockwork, I swear. And.... have the second part of the 5000 question meme.

( Part 2: Questions 101-200 )

(Friday the 21st) It's one of those days- sun is shining, sky is blue, there are nice fluffy clouds and there are cats sleeping all around you because you are warm and you think, "Damn, it's gonna be a good day." And then you realize that the sunshine is deceptive, it's actually 11 degrees, and one of the cats has puked in your hair.

Also, I played through four basement levels of Re:CoM Rebirth/Reverse in like, two hours last night. Epic. Maybe if I finally finish CoM I can get around to finishing Math Days and Birth by Sleep.

And lastly, a fic meme, because I am still stuck in the land of writer's block. And I live for domestic fic. Also, heads up- this meme is kind of a meme to get me out of writers block so I can finish up that other Mistletoe meme, so I'm not ignoring it, I swear.

Give me a pairing, and then give me an everyday setting (coming home from work, waking up in the morning, going grocery shopping, etc.) and I'll write a short drabble involving said pairing in said situation. You can ask for pairings that have already been requested, and be as creative as you want with the situations!

Dear Uterus:

You are an asshole. You know damn well that I'm going to have to walk around the whole damn neighborhood with my little brother tomorrow and you decide that you want to bleed EARLY? You couldn't have just waited another five days, could you? COULD YOU? Well, at least the chocolate cravings are appropriate, but somehow I really don't think Mattie-boy is going to appreciate it when I steal his candy.

NO LOVE,
Me


Also, I am going to try to finish Days 27, 29, and today but other than that, I think I'm gonna call it quits. Because the fic I have assigned for the 31st would only be good if it's long fic and I haven't touched the thing yet. At all. BUT that leaves me with nothing to post on actual Halloween! SO a Halloween-themed meme. I'm still working on... two drabbles from the last one, but HALLOWEEN.

SO.

Give me a character and a fear or a superstition and I'll write you a drabble or ficlet about it.. Amy Pond, fear of growing up. Fakir, breaking mirrors. As long as I know the canon - you can ask - I'll write about it.

Fandoms include: Kingdom Hearts, INCEPTION, Supernatural, Legend of Zelda, Persona (3&4), D.Gray-man, Avatar: TLA, Durarara!, Neuro, Death Note, Final Fantasy (7&12&13), Hetalia, and whatever else you know I like. I'll write Shisui and Itachi, but since I'm not very caught up with Naruto they're the only two I'll do.

BTW KURO MUSICAL 2 HAS SUCH AN ADORABLE SOUNDTRACK. SO CUTE SO CUTE.

Day 28 - A pairing that you will never understand?



Yes, it's cute. Yes, I've read it. Yes, I've liked it when I've read it. But get it? NEVER. But then again, I'm rather partial to both Xigbar/Demyx and Demyx/Saix and Demyx being kind of slutty because there was this one Demyx/everyone prompt on springkink a couple years yet that was I'm not a slut, water just likes to flow.

So yes. I still don't get why it's such a big pairing though. At least Saix/Demyx I get, I mean, hell, who can resist shipping 69. shot

Day 29 - What ship had the best proposal?



LET'S GET MARRIED MARRIED MARRIED MARRIED~ Yeah IDEK, None of my ships ever get married cause usually they're BOOOOOOOOYS. Or GIIIIIIIIIRLS. Um, I dunno? Monica and Chandler? The episode where Spike and Buffy almost get married? LOL OH GOD, yanno what. That's probably my answer.

Day 30 - Your favorite ship forever and ever and ever?



And we've come full circle. I thought about using something different. For example, I will always have Legend of Zelda. That is a fandom that will stick with me. I will still be replaying Ocarina of Time when I'm an old lady but somehow, I doubt my N64 would hold out that long. But I will never not ship this pairing. They give this whole new meaning to MFEO, I am so serious. I mean, shit, just take a gander at icon. That is CANON MATERIAL dude. CANON. I mean, sure, Axel is just trying to manhandle Roxas back to the Organization, but he is ON TOP OF HIM.

I digress, go forth and check out the picspam. There are quite a few NSFW ones, but I've stashed those at the bottom of the picspam.

( 1 more picspam for luck and a reclist to keep you busy )

And that's it. The end of this meme, even if I did cheat a teeny tiny bit. I'm a little upset that I didn't get to prattle about some of my main ships. Sheik/Link, Mello/Matt, Kanda/Allen, Dark Link/Link, Russia/America... all sadly lacking. But oh well.

Now, I have 4.5/31 days completed because turns out I'm MOVING at the end of October and will have to post the last four days early. SO YES, productivity FTW. In other news, P3P is fucking awesome. Also, Tongues of Serpent's is pretty good. A little lacking on Tharkay and Granby, but they haven't died yet, so that's a plus. And oh god, LAURANCE STOP BEING SO SAD SRSLY. I MISS YOU HAVING ADORABLE CONVERSATIONS WITH TEMERAIRE. NOW YOU JUST SIGH A LOT.

Also. I cannot find ANY of my bras. Seriously. I had at least two backups in my top drawer in addition to the ones strewn around my room. THEY ARE ALL GONE. NOT DIRTY. GONE. RAAAAAAAAGE.
