This community has 58 members by now, and I realised that I don't really know anything about any of you guys, so I thought this could be an introduction post ( Read more... )

I was pulled in by the Whedon as well, and I think you're right about them helping each other. They can either be very good or very bad for each other, and I'm rooting for good.

Oh, and Big Bang Theory. Evil Wil Wheaton is on tonight, isn't he? I can't wait until I get the chance to see that episode!

haha yay. We share a lot of OTPs! Do you follow Paradox?

Castle/Beckett FTW. I was a bit disappointed in the previews for next weeks episode bc it looks like ANOTHER guy but then Castle needs to get jealous bc Kate did that this week.

Name: ChickyBee
Age: A very immature 28

What do you do? I'm a stay at home mother of a 3 yr old son.

What are your fandoms? True Blood, LOTR, Harry Potter, Torchwood, Dr Who, Doom

Who are your OTPs? Legolas/Aragorn, Ten/Rose, and um, a lot of things that may squick people.

Why did you fall in love with Codex/Fawkes? I'm more of a fan of subtext pairings than canon as well as a massive sucker for 'Slap Slap Kiss Kiss'

Why did you first start watching the Guild: I play an MMO called Runescape, which to my non-gaming friends is just like playing WoW so when the 'Date my Avatar' video came out, several people who follow various whedon-related people on twitter linked me. Plus my fiancee tolerates my fangirling and has a massive crush on Felicia, so we watched it together. He wasn't into it, but I ended up telling myself 'one more then bed!' until I'd worked through all available episodes.

Codex/Fawkes really did seem like it was going to be a subtext pairing until the very end of season 3, didn't? I never expected it to actually become canon, and was so thrilled when it did.

The good thing about "one more before bed" with the Guild is that at least they're only 5 minute episodes.

*closes down half a dozen different windows with a dozen different tabs open and looks innocent*

I'm shamelessly addicted (never posted though - everyone else seems to say it a lot better than I can) and so many of my friends read regularly that using the Trope names is part of regular conversation. Sometimes I forget not everyone is a troper. (although they should be)

I suppose I should introduce myself as well ( ... )

Mal/River have too much of a father/daughter relationship for me in the show for me to ship them. I could go into why I prefer River/Jayne, but it'd turn into an essay. :)

Fandoms/OTP's: I have a lot so you can click HERE
for all of them.

I started watching the Guild after I saw Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog and saw how amazing Felicia was. :D

I fell in love with Codex/Fawkes because I love the opposites attract angle because I think opposites like Fawkes and Codex can balance each other out so that Codex might become more confident and Fawkes might be less of a jerk.

Unfortunately, not my idea, I got the idea from a few people over at Paradox. It really is the best idea ever because I usually forget half of my fandoms/otps

Hey, another Star Trek XI fan!
I'm more of a Kirk/Spock fan myself, but can see why people would go for Kirk/Bones in the Reboot. Also, who doesn't ship Scotty/Enterprise? *g*

Felicia is pretty amazing, isn't she? It's great that someone out there will represent girl geeks.

Hi! I'm Naomi, 27 and a long time fangirl ;)

What do you do? I'm a doula (I help women prepare for childbirth) and I'm in the process of applying for midwifery school.

What are your fandoms?/Who are your OTPs? I've been doing this for 15 some years, so there's a lot. Check out my fandom list here

Why did you fall in love with Codex/Fawkes? The ying-yang aspect. He would pull Codex out of her shell, while she would soften him (a little).

Why did you first start watching the Guild. I don't remember, but I was quickly hooked.

Fellow River/Jayne shipper! *high fives*
I also support you shipping Wesley/Buttercup and Han/Leia.

Scarlet Pimpernel, you say? Sink me!
Which version do you like? The book, the one with Ian McKellen or the one with Richard E. Grant and Martin Shaw?
Or another version. I know there are lots, these are just the ones I know.
