'So then I just HAD to find out ...' - a semi-meta post!

Jul 02, 2006 00:01

As we all know, H_H is a multifandom community, and I doubt that many of us are familiar with every fandom represented. So here's what I'm currently curious about. Has anyone else been so intrigued by a previously unfamiliar character in H_H that she/he saw the movie, read the book or played the game (or etc, etc.) in order to meet that character ( Read more... )

meta, ooc

Well, I'm considering checking out Johnny the Homicidal Maniac and Invader Zim.

Which, of course, you should do anyway. ;)

shark_swordsman July 2 2006, 16:42:22 UTC

Well, of course. I'd been meaning to get around to them eventually. I guess our conversation at Gogo's party helped somewhat.

h_h has calmed him down a lot, too. Which he's not entirely happy with.

I am currently reading "Dead Girls" to understand a bit more about Primavera :)

Uhm. I actually ordered the whole two series (Serieses? Seri? *flails*) of Invader Zim from the internet because I loved Dib so much. And considering that the DVDs actually AREN'T AVAILABLE IN THIS COUNTRY... Well.

I also bought the first Bleach manga - partly because of Charlie's crush on Rukia, partly because of the OMGLOVE that is the Shinigami crack that went down here.

Hogfather and Thief of Time because of Teatime and Susan, of course.

Runaways. I now have the whole thing on my harddrive because of the god who is Chase-mun! (Sadly popcorn now. Alas, alas.)

Kyou Kara Maou on YouTube becase, dude. Wolfram.

I've actually got a whole bunch of others that I intend to check out as soon as I have the time/money, such as the Dead Trilogy (Primavera FTW!), Veronica Mars, Arrested Development...

... God. I am SO WEAK. *hangs head in shame*

Soul Music is another great Susan book too.

One of these days, I want to have Susan be the victim of a magical accident that knocks her back to being the sixteen-year-old that she is in Soul Music. Just for variety and grins.

And, of course, for context about Susan's whole family, it's good to read Mort and Reaper Man. Which I only just read myself (my first Pratchett book was Hogfather; I basically went about all the Death books almost completely backwards).

...oooohhhhhh. There was talk the other night in the irc chan about somebody doing another box of mixed magic chocolates soon, totally opt-in, muns decide on their own choco-based calamity... ::pictures angsty teen Susan running around Hogwarts and meeting up with Granddad::

Nightwing got me into Batman, which got me playing Jason. XD Then Terry made me start watching Batman Beyond. Also borrowed Batman Begins to try see what this Bruce is like and I'll be watching it sometime today, hopefully. XD So, my indoctrination into the world of DC? Totally can be traced back to Nightwing-mun who is way too much fun.

If I had Castlevania, I'd give it a spin because of Alucard, definitely, and Nny-mun sent me some of JtHM to read so that I could see what was up with Edgar. Also borrowed some Runaways from a friend because of Victor, Chase and Gert, and I'll be probably d/ling KKM once I'm back at uni.

Psyche and Eros revived my interest in Greek Mythology and this summer, I'm going on a Wodehouse reading-spree thanks to Jeeves and Bertie, the adorablest squishy. Not to mention that I rewatched all of Utena because of the Utena-app encouraging me to pop up as Akio or someone equally bizarre. XD

...Oh man. HH, you are expanding my boundaries beyond belief.

pollicle_zapper July 2 2006, 09:32:54 UTC

I bought the first book in the Honor Harrington series. I haven't read it yet, but it's only a matter of time.

I've also done some research about ZEX, Nny and some other people, just to have a vague idea what they're like.

::hangs head in shame:: I've had On Basilisk Station sitting on my shelf waiting for me to get to it for like forever now. And I love h_h Nimitz and Honor!

Oh, and I forgot on Laura's list below, I ordered Sabriel because a couple of muns encouraged me to in Mogget's most adorable app,and it's now on the shelf giving me the guilt-inducing stare now too.
