Protowilson's Bits

I - Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why: I don’t believe I’ve faded from any fandoms based on what I’ve seen on Tumblr, but I do find some fandoms a bit annoying in their volume in people’s posts.  If it worked in Firefox, I’d probably Tumblr-Saviour a bunch - maybe it does… I haven’t looked into it that hard.  I don’t think people acting like dicks is limited to any particular fandom, consequently such a thing hasn’t really affected me enough to make me want to leave a fandom.

A - Your current OTP: Already answered, but perhaps if I were to choose another, TheMonarchxDrMrsTheMonarch (Venture Bros).  I must do a picture of them one day.

M - Your favorite fanart or fanartist: Oooh, that’s really hard to narrow down!  In terms of fanartist, there are so many people who do wonderful work and they all have unique styles which is what makes it so interesting for me.  I will say that there are particular characters or pairings that I feel have someone who excels at them, in my opinion, but this is not to say that I feel the work of other artists with those same characters/pairings is any less in quality.  And that’s my diplomatic response!  In terms of fanart, I really like TF2 fanart.  It covers the range between humour and crack, to stylised, to some very realistic work.  It’s proved an incredibly versatile fandom in my eyes.  Favourite fanart?  I have a lot and I discover new ones every day, but I do really love ‘Allied Forces’ by Thorsten-Denk, ‘Fun Time With Heavy 2’ by KG Bigelow, ‘Naughty Gifts, Angry Sons’ by EdoTastic, ‘Carpe Diem, Boys’ by Liquidsilk, and ‘TF2: A Game of Strategy’ by Pandadrake.

S - Show us an example of your personal headcanon:

I think that says it all (although in my head, Medic is definitely dominant).

N - Your favorite fanfiction or fanauthor: Well, since (as mentioned in another response post to this meme) I don’t read a lot of fanfic, this is tough, so I can’t answer for the fanauthor.  However, fanfics I’ve really enjoyed are ‘Une Tournee Des Chambres’ (TF2) by StephREDSniper, and ‘Cauterize’ by LadyAltair (HP).  There are others, and I often see some exceptional writing here on Tumblr, but those two are always in the forefront of my mind.

Y - A fandom you’re in but have no ships from: Already answered.

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas): Hrm, not entirely sure what this means, and I had to have a think about it.  I already operate an HP AU with ‘Severed’ which deals in puerile humour, self-insertion and breaking the Fourth Wall. Mmm, I wouldn’t really know how to AU for a fandom I wasn’t actually involved in.  TF2, well, I have a number of ideas, but I shan’t reveal them on the grounds it will incriminate me, but I can say a few unrelated things.  I know that TF2 is set in the late 60s, but in my head I view it as something that continues to present day rather than something that’s isolated in the past - probably because I find the idea of those mercs being long-gone rather distressing, and WTF is respawn for than to keep the madness going?!

E - Have you added anything stupid/cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what: Ermmm, not really.  Any ideas I’ve had, people have had waaay before me since I come to fandoms a lot later than most, so everything’s already been done!  I’d like to think ErosSniper was mine, but let’s be honest, it’s not considering it’s such an obvious idea.

D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t: Already answered.
