no subject
I'm sure I'd be more involved in DW fandom if I could ship Doctor/anyone but Rose. I'm not even saying I wish I shipped Doctor/River, but knowing I will never ship him with anyone else while the show pretends such a thing is possible (without actually dealing with any part of it) means I just...can't.
6 - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom?
It depends on how you define being in a fandom. Because Babylon 5 has been my my model of best show ever since I was 12 years old, so well over half my life at this point. But I've seldom been terribly active in any kind of fandom (I go through phases but while I always love it I'm not always passionately in love with it).
Longest I've managed to maintain a high level of fannishness is probably DW, since I managed to be active in fandom for it for about four years before the love faded into 'I still love it but I'm not all that into it any more.'
13 - Your favorite fanart or fanartist.
I'm not really a fanart person so I really don't have much to suggest. My favorite form of "fanart" is actually vids where it sort of depends on what I'm looking for at any given point.
16 - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).
Um...you do know I have an entire headcanon AU of DW/Stargate crossover right? But let's try and think of something else...and not some long term ones like "Marian didn't die" or "No godsdamn fucking Dalek Cockblock"...or the obvious "TVD s3 finale DID NOT HAPPEN LIKE THAT"...
I have some half baked ideas for TVD/Robin Hood crossover with the Originals in Nottingham during the RH timeframe. But I have no idea what I would do with such an idea aside from just have the character interact with each other. And even then I'm pretty sure the Originals would just start running the show so it looses reason to be a crossover.
25 - A fandom you’re in but have no ships from.
Again, it depends on your definition of "in fandom" and your definition of "shipping." Because I am a compulsive shipper, but sometimes it's just in a "it's sweet but I don't need to think about it" sense as opposed to a "WHY ARE YOU TWO SO PERFECT AND WHY WON'T THE SHOW JUST LET YOU BE HAPPY?" way.
But I can definitely say I don't really ship anyone on Red Dwarf as much as I love the show. Though again, I wouldn't exactly say I'm in fandom for it.
