Blatantly Unashamedly Stolen from May Flyer

The one who seduced you and screwed you over and broke your heart in a million pieces and laughed about it:

The FMA anime. Oh my god, starting with episode 25 alone (which devastated me, you lot have NO IDEA) and then I got to the last three episodes which were so full of what the fuck I could barely handle it and THEN I got to the movie which just made me want to stab somebody in the neck I was just... very very upset until i got to the manga, because I loved the whole concept and the universe so much but the execution in the anime quite literally hurt my heart.

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:

X-Men. I've flirted both with movie-verse and the evolution-verse, but at the end of the day my heart still craves the good old fashioned Rogue/Gambit with possible flings with an amnesiatic Magneto. Life was simpler, then. Once CFAN went down I really lost track of a lot of my favorite fics, woe.

The mysterious dark gothy one whom you used to sit up with talking until 3 a.m. at weird coffeehouses and with whom you were quite smitten until you realized he really was freaking crazy:

I thought long and hard about this one and eventually settled on Lord of the Rings - man I was obsessed with LotR back in the day, and the fics that are good are really really good, but also involve people doing copious amounts of research to make up entire conversations in gramatically correct Elvish. And arguing over whether Book!Legolas was blond or brunette.

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 screw again although you're relieved he doesn't actually live in town.

Hmmmm Inuyasha? I really adore Inuyasha, and would really like to finish out the series and maybe possibly write fic for it, but I have a feeling once I open myself to another fandom like Avatar and FMA (my two main fandoms) then I'm REALLY screwed and I just don't know if I can handle it.

The alluring stranger whom you've flirted with at parties but have never gotten really serious with:

Bleach. Maybe it's because I've only seen through the Soul Society Arc, but I've wanted to write fic for it for pretty much forever but for some reason it never rings true to me.

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.

Oh Harry Potter. You were the first of my hardcore fandoms that I actually WANTED to take place in and not just lurk and read the good fic. Every once in a while I still desire to write Harry Potter fic, but outside of the occasional drabble for 31_days I don't think it's going to happen.

The one your friends keep introducing you to and who seems like a hell of a cool guy except it's never really gone anywhere.

Naruto. I've caught a couple episodes, and YAY NINJAS but also... Hm. I think if I sat down and devoted myself to it I could get into it but I just can't do it right now.

The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at him and thinking, "Him? How the hell did he land all these cool babes?"

Supernatural. I don't know, normally I love those types of shows, but Supernatural just never did anything for me.

The one your friend has fallen for like a ton of bricks and whom she keeps babbling to you about on the phone for hours, and you'd be happy for her except you just know it's going to end badly.

HEROS. Oh my god, everyone is obsessed with Heros, and once again despite a love of superhero type shenanigans the show has simply never done anything for me. Despite the fact that I'm only vaguely aware of the fandom, it seems to me to have great potential to implode a'la Buffy fandom. (...if it hasn't already.)

The nice one who would never, ever hurt you but for some reason you just don't feel it anymore.

Samurai Champloo, which had a perfect ending and any fic would (for me anyway) feature either hot bickering OT3 sexin or perfectly platonic bickering gen fic and which... I can never seem to find fic I like, which in turn fails to inspire me. Woe.
