Two Memes

[browngirl]

I'm trying not to write a different post, so have a meme that's going around:

Ask me any fandom-related questions in the comments. They can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general.

Questions can be as wacky as you want and have as many subparts as you like. Ask me about tv shows, characters, fanfic in general, fandom issues/meta, anything about any of my stories specifically. Whatever you want. [However, you may not ask what post it is I'm trying not to write.]

Fandoms of mine include: Babylon 5, DC Comics, Doctor Who & Torchwood (Nu Who), the Ancient Egyptians, Firefly, Heinlein novels, LOTR, Mary Renault, Mercedes Lackey Novels (back in the ‘90s), the Minoans of Bronze Age Crete, NUMB3RS, Pern, Star Trek: TNG, DS9, Voyager, and Reboot, Star Wars, and Bujold’s Vorkosiverse.

The first comment is the answer to another meme, of Five Questions which 6street gave me a really long time ago.

Why do you think in LOTR fic that the era around the Troubles appealed so much to you?

(gosh this is all I can think of, others have asked much better questions omg)

The Year of Troubles is darkfic with a built in expiration date; the hobbits would ultimately prevail, whivh made inflicting awfulnesses on them both fascinating and bearable.

(Perfectly good question!)
