Pick a Card, Any Card

[netgirl_y2k]

Today I was told that I was a very attractive female with lovely hair. Okay, I was told this by an eighty year old resident of my grandmother's nursing home, but take your compliments when they come, I say!

I have a suspicion this meme originated on tumblr, but as I have already proved, I cannot use tumblr in any halfway sensible way, so I'll do it here.

Pick a number from the list and I'll answer it in the comments.

Your favorite fanfiction or fanauthor

I am a huge fan of dollsome*, like, slightly frightened to talk to her, did a happy dance when she commented on one of my fics huge fan. It's somewhat embarrassing.

calapine is one of the best reasons to be in Doctor Who fandom, I don't think she's ever written a bad fic.

hibernate is a one stop shop for happy-making femslash.

*If you haven't read her Sansa & Shae fic she'll cover me with grace, it's wonderful.

23 - 5 favorite characters from 5 different fandoms

1. Sansa Stark (Game of Thrones)
2. Morgana (Merlin)
3. Donna Noble (Doctor Who)
4. Gwen Cooper (Torchwood)
5. Anya (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

Is that a pattern, it feels like a pattern?

24 - 3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms

You know, I'm not really an OTPing fan. I tend to have one favourite (or little black dress, as the kids say nowadays) and ship them with all and sundry. But I do feel pretty strongly about:

HG/Myka (Warehouse 13)
Bo/Lauren (Lost Girl)
Donna Noble/Her awesome Time Lord Brain (Doctor Who)

And, yes, that last one totally counts.

(for you, 2, 12 &16)

2 - A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind

Hmmm, well I never watched past season 3 of Lost, but my friend got me to watch all the Juliet Burke (Elizabeth Mitchell) scenes and made me ship Juliet/Sawyer a lot, though I've never been into the fandom much.

12 - Your favorite fanartist/author gives you one request, what do you ask for

To get ainsleyaisling to finish her epic Wicked fic, because it's actually my favourite fanfic ever and it was never completed.

16 - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)

What if Morgana was the heir to Camelot?

(lol that's probably not new, I just haven't read it yet)

What if Morgana was the heir to Camelot?

I don't know if you ever read The Ivy Crown, but that has Uther naming Morgana his heir and then 70k of Morgana being the awesome warrior queen of Camelot.
