OMG, Riika, look! :D

Man, okay, Subject Line That Makes You Sit Up And Take Notice: "Goblin Slash". Thanks, Amy! :D

Aaaand more interview questions, this time from [livejournal.com profile] slippery_fish:

1. You have to retell one myths/legend/fairy tale (doesn't matter which kind) in a fanfiction, which myths do you choose, which fandom and why?

I've actually done this sort of thing before, mostly in fandoms I refuse to acknowledge anymore. Spur of the moment, I'd like to see what I can do with Oedipus and Harry Potter. Or HP and any myth centered around the inevitability of Fate.

2. One thing you would never tell your family?

... I don't think there is anything I'd not tell my family, to be honest. I've told them about everything so far, though not necessarily in detail. I may put off telling them certain things, but I do tell them in the end.

3. Did you ever leave a fandom because the flame wars or fandom members annoyed you too much?

Not really as a concious decision, but yes, it's happened. Metallica fandom, for one, lost its attraction to me because of the list wars and crap.

4. Do you still take part in RPF discussions or did you stop caring?

I no longer take part in the discussions because I didn't stop caring, which is why it drives me nuts when people cannot come up with new arguments against RPF, which is why I now avoid RPF discussions like the plague. Mostly.

5. The worst thing someone could do in fandom is?

Taking fannish/online flame wars and arguments into the "real" world. LIke outing someone to their boss as a HP slasher and thus losing that person their job. There's a line, and that line is drawn where the consequences of actions reach into RL.

Yeah, that's kind of weird. Being a teenager means, at least partly, that you get interested in sex. And get a bit obsessed with the topic. Teenager tend to corrupt themselves, they don't need help for that.

Seriously. I mean, did these people never read Harlequinn romance novels for the naughty bits? (I graduated to de Sade at the ripe old age of fourteen, but then I was a premature child in that regard.) Same thing with the anti-incestfic brigade. Flowers in the Attic, anyone?

I never read that stuff but I got into fanfic as a teenager so I guess that's a good replacement...:D
