Journal status (locked/public): Public.
What do you post in your journal? Random fandomy stuff. Vids, fic, crazy-ass picspams, random rambling. Most likely to be somehow Walton Goggins related these days. >_>

JUSTIFIED

Favorite episode(s): Fire in the Hole, Bulletville
Favorite character(s): Boyd, Boyd, Boyd. But also Raylan, Art, Dewey, Devil, Johnny, Aunt Helen, and generally I just enjoy most of the characters.
Favorite pairing(s): Raylan/Boyd all the way, baby.
Favorite quote/moment: "Fire in the hole!", the whole "Your brother got shot" sequence (that features a stealthy fake pigeon!), "Right now? Right now?", Raylan and Boyd being bitchy at each other in the pilot, Raylan and Boyd having their awkward showdown dinner, mining OTP flashback, Boyd getting out of jail scene, Raylan/Boyd epic cuddling scene in Veterans, pretty much every Dewey scene ever... I COULD GO ON.
Any fandom contributions (fanfic, icons, fanart, etc.)? So far, two vids (If I Were Gay and Brokeback Justified) and one mildly obsessive picspam. Also running fuckyeahwaltongoggins.tumblr.com. Hoping to eventually write some fic, though.

OTHER INTERESTS

Other fandoms: The Shield, Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Oz, The Sopranos, Rome, Babylon 5, BSG, Burn Notice, Arrested Development, The A-Team (original), Prison Break, Preacher, The Stand, True Blood, Planescape Torment, Grim Fandango... plenty of others, but Justified is the only one I'm currently active in.
Ships: Raylan/Boyd, Jesse/Cassidy, Drake/Flynn, Claude/Bennet, Snake/Ocelot, Picard/Q, Londo/G'Kar, Doctor/Master, Max/Vlad, Flagg/Lloyd, Neo/Smith... I've got a lot of them, and frenemies tend to be my favourite thing to ship.
Favorite celebs: Walton Goggins. Did I blow your mind? Also Harrison Ford, Adam Baldwin, John de Lancie, Mickey Rourke, Robert Patrick, Hugo Weaving. Plenty I'm sure I'm forgetting.

Anything else:



This is my sekrit OTP.

I have to believe anyone who ships Londo/G'Kar has fantastic taste. Those two provide my favourite scenes from Babylon 5. I hope we see more vids from you in the future because I still love your Brokeback Justified one.

[fantasticpants]

Is it possible to be a B5 fan and not ship it? xD It's one of my earliest OTPs, I think. They're epic. I've got two more vids in mind, but I'm trapped in exam season so it might take a while 'till I get to them (and vidding tends to make my computer attempt spontaneous combustion).

[lady_death]

I remember exam season, it's one of those things that makes me shy away from graduate school. Hopefully Raylan and Boyd can provide relaxing stress relief when you're through. Mind if I friend you?

[fantasticpants]

I think I'll just do my best to repress any memory of exam season when I'm finally done with this degree (sometimes I even manage to do it during exam season! My grades can attest to that). What exactly is relaxing stress relief, Raylan and Boyd style? I'm pretty sure it'd have to involve shooting people and blowing shit up...

Friend away! I stealthily friended you already. :D

[lady_death]

Hmm, stress relief Raylan and Boyd style....Gun range? Though a wall and some bottles would probably do. I wouldn't mind a scene with Boyd ragging on Raylan's technique and Raylan threatening to introduce him to it first hand again. Boyd would just sip on his beer and smirk as isn't he living proof of the fact that Raylan can't shoot straight? Preferably this would take place while Boyd is almost healed from those wounds he took in Bulletville, so he can hold the fact that he helped protect Raylan over his head.

[fantasticpants]

Hahaha, this is so perfectly accurate, and you gotta love how Boyd's idea of stress relief involves being something of a stress provider.

Also this really should be fic.

[lady_death]

*grins* Exactly. Winding Raylan up has to be near the top of the list of "Things that Make Boyd Happy".

I think you're right about this needing to be fic. The bonus of this friending meme is that it produces plot bunnies.

Random note, I shipped Londo/G'Kar so hard when I was watching the show, but ended up falling out of it because I knew exactly zero fans. I need to pic that up again ^.^

[fantasticpants]

I think that at the time, I wasn't aware of what shipping was, so it was sort of my platonic OTP for the show. I came to ship it later, when I discovered this strange and crazy thing called fandom, but by then B5 was sorta history. I know I should rewatch it sometime (my friend has all the boxsets), but I think it's the one show that scarred me as much as the Shield did. Londo was my favorite character, and goddamn, his arc was tragic.

[diable_sinistre]

Definitely, the grudging platonic respect was first and foremost with them. I didn't watch the show until a few years ago when a friend sat me down and we marathoned the whole thing. By then I'd been fully immersed in fandom ;)

Same here. Poor Londo!
