2021 Snowflake Challenge 5: Is This The 1812 Overture? Because HERE COME THE CANONS
Batman/DC:
I love the Batfamily. Unfortunately, DC does not seem to share my love. Although I'm still buying the comics, I've basically stopped paying attention to anything happening in real canon that I don't like, because that's pretty much everything. I'm still in love with the worlds from the Golden Age through the Bronze Age (although, of course, I ignore anything that I don't care for there, too) and, aside from technology, basically set my fics around those personalities.
DC is my one fandom that I can basically do anything with because it's sure as Shinola that the real writers do.
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters:
Ugh, I love YGO!DM. I love writing fics for this and I have so many ideas that I've never done because I'm usually so involved with Batfamily stuff. I'm going to try and write some more Kaiba/Jounouchi (my OTP for this canon) fics this year, maybe do another 50 days of fics or something.
Foyle's War:
I have the DVDs of this, but I haven't watched them in a while. I still want Rex to live and be happy with Andrew, but I need to watch the show again. But also, ugh, I love Foyle, he's such a father and a good person.
Mystery Science Theater 3000:
Mike is the best host and no I won't take criticism on this my favorite. I've seen almost every episode of his numerous times (except for Alien From L.A. and High School Big Shot because 1) I really can't stand her voice, and, 2) it's so fucking depressing; like the Coleman Francis movies aren't even that depressing) and I just love Mike so much as a host. I wrote one fic for MST3K, but I'm hoping to write some more maybe this year.
Sherlock Holmes:
ACD--I love classic Holmes because that's what I grew up on. Last year, I started rereading the entire series and I was overwhelmed by the queerness of it all (purely unintentional, of course, but it's so amazing, they're just both so smitten with each other) between Holmes and Watson. I love beyond belief writing trans man Sherlock and that's the thing that's kept me going through these difficult times, even if I've only posted a bit of it.
Horowitz--I love the way Moriarty is written (my poor Athelney) and I love writing for them. I actually did read the Horowitz books in order (with the exception of the Kindle book because I didn't know about it at the time), and while House of Silk is still so good, Moriarty just has my heart. I reread it last year and I think I might do it some more, because I have started a big fic for it that petered out because of Life, but I'm going to try to get back at it this year, at least one chapter more.
