Too tired for such trivialities as subject lines
I'm tired and cranky and want to go to bed. Problems are: I'm waiting for two phone calls (one from the school about my tuition), and I have trouble falling asleep. Also, if I fall asleep now, how will I sleep tonight. The insomnia is worse than it's been in a while, and it's pissing me off.
Since I can't really go to sleep, I'll meme.
1. Fandoms and ships you have written/are writing/plan to write:
Let's see... I have written: X-Men (Banshee/White Queen, Angel/Cyclops, Northstar/Iceman, Northstar/Nightcrawler UST, but I don't remember if I posted it), Stargate: SG-1 (Jack/Daniel, Daniel/Sam, some gen stuff focusing on Daniel), Stargate: Atlantis (Sheppard/Lorne friendship, Sheppard/McKay, Lorne/Ronon), JAG (Webb/Mac), NCIS (no ship), CSI: Miami (Eric/Calleigh, Speed/Tyler, started a Speed/Calleigh but scrapped it, Eric/Speed), CSI (Nick/Greg), CSI: NY (Danny/Flack, Danny/Stella), Enterprise (Reed/Hayes), Firefly (Mal/Simon)
I want to write: I have a Daniel/Sam story I really want to finish--it's one of my favorite stories thus far, but I have to find time to finish so I can post it. I'm also working on a Lorne/Ronon slash piece. Otherwise, I'd like to write Torchwood (Jack/Ianto) and Doctor Who (Doctor/Jack). I'd like to write more Firefly fic, too.
2. Pairings you are ADDICTED to at the moment...
Jack/Ianto, McKay/Sheppard, Lorne/everyone, Daniel/Sam, Jack/Daniel, Two/Jamie, Five/Tegan, Doctor/Jack (Nine or Ten), Han/Leia
3. Pairings you like, but aren't necessarily obsessed with...
Rhys/Gwen, Owen/Tosh, Daniel/Vala, Tegan/Nyssa, Nick/Greg, Danny/Flack, Reed/Sue, Bobby/JP, Rogue/Gambit, Banshee/White Queen, Human Torch/Spiderman, Warren/Betsy, Billy/Teddy (from the Young Avengers), Todd/Damon (DC Comics), Captain America/Iron Man (shut up, you naysayers!), Ric/Star, Sawyer/Kate, Desmond/Penny, Ben/Locke, Desmond/Sayid, Sun/Jin, Piper/Leo, House/Wilson, Crichton/Aeryn, Mal/Simon, Mal/Inara, Wash/Zoe (SOB), and Matt/Nathan. Also, I'm interested in Jack/Jack and Jack/John, but not as active pairings.
4. Pairings you're new to, but enjoying...
Ianto/Ten, Ianto/John, Jack/Sarah Jane, Daniel/Cam, Sam/Cam, Rictor/Northstar (it works in my head, kthnx), Donald/Timmy, Lorne/chick from "Search and Rescue."
5. You can choose one non-canon pairing you love to become canon. Who do you pick?
Well, I have two answers to this question. First of all, I'd want Northstar to get a boyfriend. It can be someone new, or it can be an established character. But give the man some action! He's been out since the 90s, but freaking Marvel won't let him have a dating life.
Also, Lorne/Teyla.
6. You're only allowed to read fic from one fandom (any pairing) for the next three weeks. What fandom do you choose?
Torchwood
7. You're allowed to refer to your favorite ship only by a shipper name. What ship is your favorite and what would you name them?
First of all, I think shipper names are silly. But for the integrity of the meme, I'd call Jack/Ianto "Janto," because that's what most of the fandom calls it.
8. Two of your fandoms are going to collide in a spectacular crossover. Which fandoms would you like to see crossed?
I don't get into crossovers unless they're from the same universe. So I guess I'd pick a Torchwood/Doctor Who/Sarah Jane Adventures crossover. And this time, Ianto meets Ten.
9. You have to choose between reading bad porn about your fandom obsession of the moment, or no fic at all. What do you pick?
No fic.
10. You're asked to pick a theme song for one character/ship. What song do you pick, and for whom?
There's a song by The Calling - "Stigmatized." I associate it with Jack/Daniel from SG-1. There are a couple of lines I don't necessarily think work, but for the most part, it's a good match for them:
If I give up on you I give up on me
If we fight what's true, will we ever be
Even God himself and the faith I knew
Shouldn't hold me back, shouldn't keep me from you
Chorus:
Tease me, by holding out your hand
Then leave me, or take me as I am
And live our lives, stigmatized
I can feel the blood rushing though my veins
When I hear your voice, driving me insane
Hour after hour day after day
Every lonely night that I sit and pray
Chorus
We live our lives on different sides,
But we keep together you and I
Just live our lives, stigmatized
We'll live our lives, We'll take the punches everyday
We'll live our lives I know we're gonna find our way
I believe in you
Even if no one understands
I believe in you, and I don't really give a damn
stigmatized
We live our lives on different sides
But we keep together you and I
We live our lives on different sides
We're gonna live our lives
Gotta live our lives
We're gonna live our lives
We're gonna live our lives, Gonna live our lives, stigmatized
11. Ship that makes you laugh:
Most of my ships have an element of humor, but the one that springs to mind is Jack/Daniel.
12. The ship that makes you go "Awww" is...
Billy/Teddy from Young Avengers. They're so adorably young and in love. And canon!
13. The ship that makes you want to yell, "Just have sex already, you morons!" is...
McKay/Sheppard
14. Favorite cracktastic ship:
Todd/Michael (Wraith Love!)
15. The character you alternatively love to death and want to beat some sense into is...
Jack Harkness can be so incredibly dense sometimes.
16. The character you're almost embarrassed to admit you like is...
I can't think of a character that embarrasses me.
17. Your very first fandom/ship was...
The fandom was either V, Star Trek, New Mutants, or Fantastic Four. The ship was probably Mike/Martin from V. Or Mike/Julie.
18. The fandom you could read any kind of fic in is...
There's no fandom in which I could read any fic.
19. The fandom you would totally write an anonymous Mary Sue fic in is...
If anyone ever sees a Mary Sue in one of my stories, they need to tell me immediately, because I want no part of it.
20. The show you would bring back from cancellation...
Stargate: SG-1. I'm so not done with them. *emo*
