respoftwWork, rinse, repeat. The end of year end is in sight though so I won’t bore myself with more moaning.
My broadband was down for a couple of days this week so, being fairly distraction free, I managed to write the fic for my the pinch hit I picked up for Fandom5k. It’ll be revealed in a couple of weeks which means that May 2019 is the first month since April 2015 that I haven’t posted a fic on AO3.
That’s craaaaazy!
In other news, the lack of access to Netflix and Amazon meant that I went raiding my DVD shelves and we’re doing a Due South rewatch. God, I’d forgotten how much I loved this show!
squidgiepdx has come up with a June Something posting challenge thing and I’m gonna try and play along so here’s a quick catch up.
Day 1: We all have that ONE fandom, or OTP. But what would you consider your backup fandom? Bonus: Who is your backup OTP? Same fandom or different?
Backup fandoms? What are those, lol. I pretty much live in SGA these days but I do sometimes go and visit other fandoms, even if I don’t stay long. My most consistent backup fandom is probably Star Trek: AOS. McKirk mainly but I have found myself warming to Spirk, as long as the fic isn’t too explicit (I have a bit of a hard time reading about Spock having sex, I genuinely don’t know why!)
Backup OTP remains in the SGA fandom. McShep is the ultimate OTP but I ship Rodney with everyone and anyone so there’s always lots of other pairings for me to read.
Day 2: If you were able to insert yourself into one fandom as your reality, what would it be? Bonus: How different would you be in that reality?
I used to self insert myself into so many fandoms (in my head at least, it’s not something I have ever or would ever write down) but I can’t actually remember the last time I did that. Weirdly, I usually go the opposite and insert fandom characters into my real life when I let my mind wander that way. That being said, the last time I did fantasise about inserting myself into fandom it was for the David Hewlett show, Traders.
Maybe it’s because the financial setting jibes with my real life job? But yeah, I did and have fantasised about working at Gardner Ross and making sure that Grant Jansky was protected like he deserves!

I think I'd rather bring fandom characters to me, that's a much better idea. I wouldn't mind going to Second Job if Evan Lorne was there working with me.
