wisdomeagle has a character poll for Jossverse writers: who you love, who's easiest to write, all sorts of questions that are already giving me giddy squee in anticipation of stats. Beautiful stats!

There's a meme going round about secret fandom shame. Hmm...

1. I started out in fandom a rabid Spuffy shipper. I do mean rabid. Because their love was true and pure OMG. And I *still* read the most OOC schmoopy dreck written about that pairing and eat it up with a spoon because their true and pure love makes my taste go sailing waaaay out the window.
2. A corollary to #1: my first (thankfully not online) Buffy fic was a horrendous post-Gift AU with angsty!redemptionista!Spike and, interestingly enough, the genesis of tropes I would later use to death (I will never get tired of writing post-apoc Los Angeles in ruins. Sorry about that.)
3. Magic Bullet is one of my favourite Angel episodes ever purely for the ten-second scene with Wesley putting the blood on Connor's chest and then touching his face.
4. I have written and posted songfic of the 'character A hears a song on the radio and thinks how it relates to his feelings for character B' variety. I was 14, but this is no excuse.
5. I will skim any post-NFA fic, in any pairing, to see if Nina's in it. If she is, I will read, no matter how awful it is.
6. My Lost OTP is Boone/Locke.
7. I have a half-written Dawn/Illyria/Locke fic on my hard-drive.
ETA 8: After downloading the first Daily Show broadcast after 9-11 I had to google to find out if Jon Stewart has a wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/absolutely anyone so he wasn't going home by himself after that show. Because I am that fangirly and seeing him cry worried me that much.

Magic Bullet is one of my favourite Angel episodes ever purely for the ten-second scene with Wesley putting the blood on Connor's chest and then touching his face.

I'm in no way a Connor/Wes 'shipper but that scene hits me like a hammer.

So much in that. Right after Wes telling Angel he'll kidnap Connor because he's done it before and the gladness on Wesley's face that this time (he thinks), he's bringing Connor back, in a metaphoric way; hurting him, yes, physically and emotionally, but bringing him back.

Love it to bits.

That episode was just Joss's present to me. With a shiny bow around it.
