Fandom Snowflake Challenge, Days 10 and 11
Fandom Snowflake details here.
Day 10: In your own space, talk about a creator. Show us why you think they are amazing. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I am a sucker for Doctor/Jack/Rose in pretty much any way, shape, or form. (For further proof, see Day 11, below. :D) wendymr writes some marvellous, marvellous stuff that is creative, clever, and in character, and you cannot go wrong reading it. Threesomes generally can be tough to do well, particularly in terms of keeping things in character, and that's particularly true with regard to Doctor/Jack/Rose, where it's very, very easy to take any or all of the three characters to one extreme or another.
But the other reason I think she's a great creator is that she (along with several others, credit where it's due) successfully revived the dormant community for that threeing, and betterwiththree is now a thriving and creative place to be. That takes time, effort, and a lot of fannish love - it's just as important an act of creation as her fic!
Day 11: In your own space, ask for recs. Something as simple as "I like XYZ (where XYZ is a kink, a pairing, a trope, etc) - please rec me some." Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
Confession: The easiest way to sell me on a fandom is through a believable, interesting threesome. I tend to prefer F/M/M - Weir/Sheppard/McKay? Harry/Ron/Hermione? Doctor/Jack/Rose? Emily/Rossi/Hotch? Holmes/Watson/Mary (in the movieverse?)?Will/Bran/Jane? YES, PLEASE. (Oh, my god. Is there Darcy/Clint/Coulson? I WOULD DIE OF JOY.) I cannot tell you exactly WHY I find it so compelling, although possibly it has something to do with the extra relational dynamics, but it is completely, totally my thing. Rec me some? Even if I've not familiar with the source material, I'm up for a good read.
