Following the herd...
I've probably done this before, but not in awhile, and I'm feeling like a distraction. So...
Post one of my fandoms and the number of any of these questions (as many or few as you like) and I'll tell you the answer!Note #1: "All" is absolutely an option ( Read more... )

1. The first character I fell in love with: Auron
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Nooj. I always liked him, from the first time I played the game, but spending so much time with him in my writing has really cemented my love for him.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Rikku. I like Rikku, I do. More in FFX than in X-2, but even then I still liked her well enough. But she gets so much of the focus in the wider fandom that I burned out on her. Less so now than a couple of years ago, though.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Beclem. Even before I started Aftermath, although of course writing Aftermath helped.
5. The character I would shag anytime: Auron, Baralai, Nooj.
6. The character I'd want to be like: Lulu.
7. The character I'd slap: Brother.
8. A pairing that I love: Um, let's see, there must be one around here someplace...
9. A pairing that I despise: Auron/Rikku. I've tl; dr'd about this one before, so let's just leave it there.
10. Favorite character: Auron and Paine. Please don't make me choose between them.
11. What are my five favorite things about the fandom. 1) I have met some extremely awesome people. 2) Even after many years with no new canon, people are still coming up with good stories and fascinating ideas. 3) FFX is still my favorite game ever. 4) The fact that I'm still winning converts to Paine/Nooj. 5) So much potential backstory to explore, in both the people and the world.
12. What are my five least favorite things about the fandom. 1) Despite all that potential backstory to explore, a huge percentage of the fics are about the same three pairings. 2) Lack of recent participation -- it's been seriously quiet lately, with many of the regulars drifting away and not much new blood. 3) So few fanworks for my OTP, despite all those converts. 4) All the hate for X-2. 5) There is no number 5.
13. Who are my five favorite characters. Auron, Paine, Nooj, Baralai, Lulu. This list could be much longer.
14. Who are my five least favorite characters. Brother, Leblanc, Seymour, Tobli, I can't think of a fifth
15. What are my five favorite pairings. Paine/Nooj, Baralai/Yuna, Tidus/Yuna, Wakka/Rikku, Auron/Braska/Jecht (although I prefer that grouping to tend more towards the gen)
16. What are my five least favorite pairings. Auron/Rikku, Lulu/Wakka, Auron/Tidus, Seymour/Tidus, Nooj/Leblanc
17. Which character are you most like. Probably Yuna.
18. What is my deep, dark fandom secret. I am not entirely on board with Gippal/Baralai. There are things I like about it, and ways in which I like them better as close friends. But that might just be my natural resistance to pairings talking.
