finally getting around to this:
B: A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind
lol kurt/dave from glee. which i don't even watch. that was josh's doing.
G: Do you remember your first OTP, if so who was in it
My first OTP was more of a Leverage-esque OT5 of Dorothy, Huck/Scarecrow, Zeke/Lion, Hickory/Tin Man, and ofc Toto. This was when I was about 3 that that would have started. My first OTP however was probably Kim/Ron of Kim Possible. I didn't have the Ron/Hermione feelings until around '03.
I: Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why
YES. It mostly comes down to creepiness, bitchiness, and ship/character ~superiority. See: The X-Files (I mostly keep to myself, Chloe, and Joha now), The West Wing (when like everyone started watching it and idc IT'S JUST NOT THE WAY IT USED TO BE), NCIS (part show, part fandom. I miss Kate), Bones (no comment), and most movie fandoms (due to the creepy). Also, I kind of liked Sherlock/Luther when they first started. lol.
C: A pairing you have never liked and probably never will
But in all seriousness, Sam/Anyone.
E: Have you added anything stupid/cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what
Idk, man. I sort of came late to the party with all of them, but if I have, it would probably be in either TWW or ER. And only on tumblr. #mutantcroatianseed
J: Name a fandom you didn’t care/think about until you saw it all over tumblr
None of them? Tumblr hasn't actually gotten me into anything that I've stuck with/liked all that much. I was watching The X-Files before tumblr was even a thing, and The West Wing wasn't far behind (okay, that came from lj shut up). OH, EXCEPT FOR LEVERAGE, THAT WAS ALL ALY, VICTORIA, AND ANA'S DOING.
K: How do you feel about the other people in your current fandom
I guess my ~current fandom would be ER? Idk, I love everyone I talk to, which is, what, five/six people. Julianna stans are always welcome bc Carol is the greatest. Alex stans, not so much. Bc Elizabeth pisses me off like 90% of the time, and everyone else seems to love her.
Z: Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go
lol, okay chloe, you win.
HEY GUYS, REMEMBER THAT ONE TIME SUSAN LEFT CHICAGO FOR FIVE YEARS, LEAVING HER BEST FRIEND, AND COMES BACK, AND HE'S LIKE NOT EVEN SIX MONTHS AWAY FROM DYING. CAN WE TALK ABOUT THAT.
Okay, so this is an arc that I take very personally for reasons.
As in I'm weeks away from moving to the other side of the fucking continent, leaving my best friend behind, and it's kind of scaring the crap out of me. Like not the butterflies in the stomach kind of scared, like the "but what if something happens to him/his family and i'm not there for him. what if he's in an accident and only has three hours to live and i can't say goodbye because it's a 4/5 hour flight from perth to sydney. what then?", and it hurts, especially during Random Acts, etc. because as far as was shown, no one even thought to call Susan. I would want to know. I would want to get on the first plane back. Hell, to put my self in Susan's position, I would get on a fucking boat for this guy, which is saying a lot, so I don't doubt that if Sherry hadn't actually left the show for that time they would have brought her back, BY PLANE, during random acts.
I don't want to talk about the rest of it because I'm getting really emotional.
but: OF A MORE PERSONAL NATURE.
Ugh, I totally believe that he had to get Elizabeth to write that fucking letter, I mean, this show is pretty good with the smaller details, and having the same handwriting on the letter and the notification would be pretty sloppy, unless it was meant to be that way, I mean, if Bells can do a Kate/Tony story in "Life Before His Eyes", I wholly believe that MC/Wells would have given us even a snippet or Mark's letter to Susan. But as if he'd get Elizabeth to write it.
this is what you wanted, isn't it, chloe. ISN'T IT.
I JUST HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS (see above)
(also I'm in the middle of a Luka/Abby fic so my views~ are distorted, rose-coloured glasses and all)
B: A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind
J: Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas)
Well, it's for Mark/Susan. Surprisingly enough. It follows similar lines of the show, up until the ~Maui Incident~. In this au, they get to Maui, rather than Susan spending the week in Phoenix. BUT THAT'S NOT WHEN THEIR RELATIONSHIP CHANGES. While away, it's all omg cute-ass brotp times with many colourful drinks. UNION STATION STILL HAPPENS, but (as stated in my over-personalised mini-rant) Susan returns during Random Acts, and she stays on the show until season 13 (after the wedding, bc imo her and abby were the ~dream team~, but i love neela, so i don't complain about it) which is where brothers and sisters happens (so abby loses both susan and luka at the same time, i'm cruel, yes, but this is where neela comes in to it all and it's wonderful and means that moretti never happens, which i am reluctant to take out of the ~story bc i love it, but w/e).
Essentially my timeline is:
Random Acts: confessions of eternal love~ and all that bullshit, also living together bc susan gave up her place
Friendly Fire: officially together, cute and domestic, stable relationship
Exodus: Susan is on during that shift and is incapacitated by the benzine, and is down and mia for part of the episode, is then put under observation bc she wasn't treated for it straight away, mark still comes in at the end of the episode, but stays with her
The Amanda Lee thing still happens w/obvious differences.
The rest is pretty much the M/E timeline (excluding the wedding, that happens during May Day) (as not to crowd the D/C story) but without the Ella~ incident, bc a) it doesn't happen, and b) they have a boy. named jeremy.
Cancer arc(s) are still there. Chuck doesn't happen (I know, it's so unlike me to leave chuck out but it doesn't feel right), but after season eight, susan and abby get really close (see, this would also have inspired more S/A fic, which is kind of my lifeblood), she helps her through the train-wreck that is the end of season nine. ALSO, JSYK, LAURA CERON IS GIVEN PRIMARY CAST STATUS AS THE NEW NURSE MANAGER AND EVERYTHING IS GLORIOUS. Until The Honeymoon is Over. (Susan returns from nyc during the war comes home to say that she was given custody of susie) Sherry still returns for the finale, she and susie are living in phoenix, susie (14, now) wants to become a nurse (insert throwback to secrets and lies here), abby and luka also return for the finale (there is no elizabeth thing w/duke or wherever), and abby is amused by susie wanting to be a nurse (see throwback).
S: Show us an example of your personal headcanon
IDES OF MARCH SPOILERS BLEOW
Ugh, my Carol Hathaway feelings, you guys, you have no idea. In my headcanon, Carol finds out that she's pregnant with Doug's baby (secret ultrasound as soon as her shift ends, the foetus is around 4/5 weeks (iirc tag was away when she slept w/doug, anyway, this is my headcanon and he was)) and this is the catalyst. (see molly in the ides of march) (ugh feelings). She miscarries.
Anyway, this is part of why I feel she was so pissed at not being able to conceive during season 5, bc it happened once at the wrong tim and now it won't happen at all.
Y: A fandom you’re in but have no ships from
Idk, man. I still watch NCIS on occasion and have no feelings what-so-ever for anything anymore, but I will still always have the Tate feelings.
Probably atla and parks though. I'm just delighted by everyone too much.
