MEME: If Fandom Was Your Lover
stolen Borrowed from: verizonhorizon's post here, who got it from direwolfdragon
If fandom was your lover:
The one who seduced you and screwed you over and broke your heart in a million pieces and laughed about it.
SPN. I'm still not over it. This was my biggest flame and the one that fucked me over, and over, and over. There is so much rage. Flames, flames on the side of my face. FLAMES!!!!
The old flame you don't see very often any more but whom you still really enjoy getting together with for a few drinks and maybe a pleasant nostalgic romp in the sheets.
Inception. Ah, my darlin'. I'm half convinced we aren't married is due to the inconvenience of the typos I make after a few hours together. Dratted phonics of 'author' and 'Arthur'.
The mysterious dark gothy one whom you used to sit up with talking until 3a.m. at weird coffeehouses and with whom you were quite smitten until you realized she really was fucking crazy.
*side glances* I'm going to be hit with a meteor or some shit for admitting this. However, Clex...yeah, you bitch, what was that? A tornado. A tornado of fucking CRAZY!!! I'm so glad I found the diamonds before the hentai!tenticle'd cthulhu babies of doom came out. I'm still (@_@!!) about those few weeks!! I need therapy.
The one you spent a whole weekend in bed with and who drank up all your liquor, and whom you'd still really like to get with again although you're relieved she doesn't actually live in town.
Uh... this becomes more of a conglomerate of things. As it was more of a weekend orgy than a relationship. And it was less a weekend than it was an extened, uh, few years? It's the type of shame that makes you burn diaries...yeah....sewing the slutty oats in those days.
The steady.
Kradam. Oh, how I love thee! For such a tight fandom the plethora and breadth is nearly unimagainable. You have gifted me with subgenres of were!foxes and mer!singers and alien and unicorns. There's even portal au's. Dragon!Adam is almost canon by this point. All of this in just one week alone. I have NEVER been disappointed with you and while it took me a while to find you, you've always been there for me and you have always been awesome. You are my steady.
The alluring stranger whom you've flirted with at parties but have never gotten really serious with.
Pinto. I could get serious with you, maybe, one day... you have my number.
The one you hang out with and have vague fantasies about maybe having a thing with but ultimately you're just good buddies 'cause the friendship is there but the chemistry ain't.
White Collar. I would love, love, love, love this show except there's so much chemistry missing. Fandom, in this has let me down. Write me something decent and I'll get back to you. On that note, Wolfram, Kyo Kara Maou. Why did the three completed fics I like get taken off the internet? Why did the two WIPs I'm following become abandoned? Why have the novels not been translated?
The one your friends keep introducing you to and who seems like a hell of a cool chick except it's never really gone anywhere.
Homestuck. I just really don't want to take the time and invest it (Damn you SPN to the bowels of hell, oh wait canon already went there).
The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at her and thinking, "her? how the hell did she land all these cool guys?"
Torchwood. I really don't get it. WTF, mates?
The one who gave you the best damned summer of your life and who you measure all other potential partners against.
Star Trek Reboot. I still giggle madly about this and dream about you on Sunday afternoons and internet stalk. Am I obessesive about updates for the next movie? ...Maybe....
The one you recently met at a party and would like to get to know better and who you think you might have a crush on.
Doctor Who.
The old flame that you wouldn't totally object to hooking up with again for a one night romp if only he cleaned himself up a bit.
...if said flame bathed in bleach and shot up with some penicillin. Snarry + Dramione, Harry Potter. Fuck, but didn't I learn about my dirty, dirty side from you? One more night with you? Thank you, sir, may I have another?
Your hot new flame.
It's so new that I don't even want to jinx it by speaking about it. Until then I have three steady, rewarding, open relationships to keep me happy.
The one who stole your boyfriend...
...and then made me not care about it? Yeah, that'd be Sherlock BBC. The moment I watched your first episode, I wanted to watch it again. And again. And again. (I did, btw) But then I found fandom, and there's really just no going back after that, is there?
