Save me from myself.

I've spent most of the morning plot bunnied hard from a prompt I can't claim (not to mention with a plot more involved than anything I really have time to write at the moment.)

Distract me, internets! (Stolen from musesfool)

Pick a number from the list and I'll answer it in the comments.

1 - Your current OTP
2 - A pairing you initially didn't consider but someone changed your mind
3 - A pairing you have never liked and probably never will
4 - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t
5 - Have you added anything stupid/cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what?
6 - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom
7 - Do you remember your first OTP, if so who was in it
8 - Do you prefer characters from real action series or anime series
9 - Has the internet caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why
10 - Name a fandom you didn't care/think about until you saw it all over tumblr/your social network sites

12 - Your favorite fanartist/author gives you one request, what do you ask for
13 - Your favorite fanart or fanartist

I don't know if the internet has soured me on a source so much as taught DO NOT ENGAGE with certain fans (House is the fandom that taught me that duscussion boards may well be of the devil, and I'm convinced that the reason I've had such a positive experience with SPN fandom is that I stay away from the anon comms.

Although some parts of the Sherlock fandom (especially the response over Elementary) have not made me go out of my way to catch up with S2.

Yeah, I've heard SPN fandom can be very wanky, but I've personally never experienced it. I think you're right and that it is all about where you hang out. XD

I know what you mean about Sherlock fandom. I really enjoy the show and I'll read fics my friends write or rec to me, but I don't actively participate. It's too frightening. :/
