A Fandom Meme Thing
It now feels like summer, I just came back from a walk in town and I feel sweaty and icky. Also one of the places on the canal is having a parrothead party and during my walk back a guy offered me a pass to it. That just made me grin slightly and its also nice to see Lewes bustling and full of summer crowds.
So a fun little meme from djcati:

4. Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
5. Do you think more people should get into this fandom?
Robin Hood
1. What got you into this fandom in the first place?
Paul Creswick's illustrated version with the illustrations my N.C. Wyeth, I adored the way the story was told, the thought and detail and the way the characters interacted.
2. Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I've been in this fandom since I was in elementary school so I don't think I'll be going anywhere.
3. Favorite episodes/books/movies, etc?
Creswick's book version, Errol Flynn's movie, the Disney movie and the children's animated cartoon show, Adventures of Young Robin Hood.
4. Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
I'm not so much in the discussion world but I have written fanfiction and created icons for my own version of Robin Hood particularly Will Scarlett.
5. Do you think more people should get into this fandom?
I think so and since new movies and tv shows and various interpretations are constantly coming out, I think others will join me.
World of Darkness
1. What got you into this fandom in the first place?
A high school boyfriend who started a Vampire Larp my sophomore year of high school.
2. Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I haven't really kept up with the fandom honestly especially all the reboots. At the moment I'm enjoying it in my own way which means playing a Changeling character I love in a couple of different games and talking about the older games to others.
3. Favorite episodes/books/movies, etc?
Changeling the Dreaming is without a doubt my favorite game because it suits my imagination really well. I think one of my favorite experiences was playing in a crossover game at Technicon in Virginia, that to me felt like the best way to enjoy the world.
4. Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
I've written a large number of stories for this world and played and ran a number of games for a lot of years. Though honestly I haven't played in the online chatrooms though but I do have a number of favorite online resources. Also I'm always surprised when I stumble on people who know WoD and a discussion starts.
5. Do you think more people should get into this fandom?
I've enjoyed it but I know that the system and construction of the worlds and games isn't perfect but I like sharing it.
Supernatural
1. What got you into this fandom in the first place?
Danii, before I left for New Zealand a couple of years ago, she came to visit and brought Slings and Arrows and the first season of Supernatural with her and we marathoned. I honestly was hooked then but I didn't have good tv access or streaming so I fell out of touch with it for a year or so.
2. Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I plan on following along with it as much as I can since I love the world and the characters are wonderful.
3. Favorite episodes/books/movies, etc?
I'm really enjoying the fourth season and I think the Trickster episode of season 2 are the first ones that just pop to mind. Also Lynn and Aspen's versions of the boys in Milliways have made me love the show even more.
4. Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
I've written some fanfiction and done some discussion but its mainly been with my own flist since I'm never sure where to start in terms of fandom comms.
5. Do you think more people should get into this fandom?
I think so since its simple and well done and honestly I love the boys so much.
