Fannish Friday Five

1) Do you have any rare fandoms/pairings? If so, what are they? Nearly all my fandoms are rare, Attila (about non-existant), gen The Professionals, Robin of Sherwood. I'm not into the really big fandoms. And, this wicked idea for an "ATTILA" fic popped into my head the other day and refuses to go away. It's Attila/Orestes. Must write that one day. I also wrote a Mummy fic with Ardeth/Imhotep.

2) What is your favorite fandom to pimp? Why? I guess it would be Highlander, but I've also been known to subject my friends to The Pros and RoS.

3) Do you remember to send feedback to authors of stories you recommend? Why or why not? I usually forget, which is, I know, my bad. But I've been trying to improve.

4) What attracts you to a character? Looks? Voice? Snarkiness? What? Looks, especially the eyes and voice count, but they character has to be really developed, well played, with multiple facets and flaws. This is why I don't usually get attracted to "the hero"

5) How do you get a new fandom? Someone pimps you in? You watch the show? You're desperate for fic? What? It's usually from watching the show/movie, and most of the time it's something from years ago. I don't think I'm really in a fandom in which the show is still running.

Attila/Orestes? You mean ATTILA... and... ORESTES?! ROTFLMAO!

(Actually, I was thinking about a Dracula/Angel slash during a long, boring train-trip this afternoon...)

I know...it's pure evil isn't it? The muse abuser (wants to) strike again! I can't help myself.

My Orestesmuse blushed, reading your note. *vbeg* You should really write that story one day...

*beaming that I made your Orestesmuse blush* Yes!

As for the Dracula/Angel slash....do it...I'd certainly read that! Yum!
