Introduction Post
Jan. 31st, 2005 10:44 pmIn honour of Worldwide Journal Commenting Day, and since I've been updating my friendslist, I thought I'd do a post for people who don't normally comment to say hi. Also for people who do normally comment. So, pretty much just for everybpdy, really.
Getting To Know You...
If you're wondering who I am - that's okay, I don't recognise a lot of the names on my flist either, hence this post - I go by Doyle, I'm 22, I'm an astrophysics student and I live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I'm most active in the Buffyverse fandom, which I can never call Buffy/Angel without getting it mixed up with the pairing, and most of my posts are me blathering on about some aspect of that. The rest of the posts are usually me whinging about an assignment/thesis/presentation/nebula spectrum, though most of those are locked, when I remember. I obsessively-compulsively organize things, so if you're looking for communities, fic recs, whatever, I'll try my best to help you find it or point you to someone who can.
Current favourite pairings and characters are Dawn, Nina, Angel/Spike, Buffy, Riley, Kennedy, Gunn, and I've been thinking a lot about Eve. This changes a lot. I think every character has been my favourite at some point, and it all seems to run nicely on a subconscious rota system. Non-Buffyverse things I watch: Lost, Desperate Housewives, Father Ted, Black Books, Teachers, The Simpsons, Futurama, random bits of anime and Farscape and Battlestar Galactica when my housemates are watching it.
I'm more or less stealing this from what I can remember of
wisteria_'s introduce-yourself posts. All the questions below are optional and for people who, like me, are more comfortable filling in forms or ticking ticky boxes. If you just want to say hi, that'd be good too.
Name: (not your real name, unless you really want to)
Age/location:
Fandom(s):
Favourite pairings/characters/bulletproof fic kinks/anything else you want to tell me:
Any burning questions? (Either to me or about fandom in general, since JennyO's post on newbies made me wonder how many people are wondering what the hell a BNF is or how to make the
community symbol or whatever)
Anything else:

Fandom(s):
Anything I can get my hands onStuff I read: Buffy-verse, Firefly, some HP, Lost if it looks interesting, Alias if someone I know wrote it, and umpteen anime/manga fandoms, chiefest among them Fruits Basket (but it has to be friendly to my OT3s), Naruto, Bleach, Angel Sanctuary (when someone writes for it), and Inuyasha. And Samurai Champloo when I can get someone to write it for me.Favourite pairings/characters/bulletproof fic kinks/anything else you want to tell me: I prefer my pairings to be canon or near-canon if possible. I've been known to join a fandom for the promise of good OT3 fic. (That was Naruto.) I like sibcest fic, mostly for the fucked-up factor. Fullmetal Alchemist is awesome and everyone should be watching it, and I'm willing to back that up by uploading episodes to YouSendIt for people.
Any burning questions? What are *your* bulletproof fic kinks?
Anything else: Fic is tehshiny.
