C4) What thing that fandom loves do you actually kind of hate? Why?
I know I'm in the minority here, but I'd probably have to go with pregnancy storylines. Not because of the actual pregnancy tbh, but mostly because for this ship, Jane and Kurt, I personally feel a baby would make no sense if they stayed in their current jobs, especially with the personal history and shitty childhoods both of them had (they could so easily die, both of them, and leave their children as orphans).
Also, another accidental pregnancy by Kurt would just make me wanna smack him in the face with a condom and tell him birth control is a thing.
But of course, that's just me! I know many desperately want a Jeller baby and that's totally fine. It would be a gorgeous child with such beautiful parents anyway.
B5) Which story have you read more than any other? How many times?
Usually when I'm in the mood for something particular (mostly a feel-good story, sometimes a sexytimes story) I'd go for a re-read. But because I have a crap memory, I often go to my review history to see which stories evoked those happy feels in me and go to that, mostly one-shots or short multichapters under 10k.
As for a particular fic, I don't know how many times, but I know I've read Stripped Pride more than a couple times. I love how my ridiculous idea was turned into something both semi-serious, funny and with sprinkles of UST by @indelibleevidence, it's just a good time.
A10) Who did you have your first fanfic related conversation with? What was it about?
Oh wow. I honestly have no idea. I was probably 13, which is when I opened my ff.net account, and that was ages ago. Probably someone answering to my review in the author notes, as it was done back in the day? And my fic-reading has always been mostly motivated by ships, so it was most likely a lot of squeeing about the fic's ship.
I do know I also used to write a "fic" with a friend via MSN Messenger as a teen (yes, I'm dating myself here lol) where she'd write a small paragraph and/or dialogue for one half of the ship and I'd write the next for the counterpart, with no specific plan or intention to publish. It was so much fun!
Shoot me a question from the ask reader meme :)!
