This is going to take some getting used to again.

My daughter asked me tonight if I had heard about the tumblr uproar. I told her yeah, and then showed her the Bellarke hug from 5.04 that the bot has decided is NSFW. (Speaking of, anyone want a 13 year old? Generally well behaved, gets good grades, likes anime, loves to draw, wants to be a coder when she grows up. Does not see the appeal of Bellamy Blake, I'm thinking about feeding her to the wolves, j/k, I will keep her.) She got a kick out of me saying I'm waiting for someone to make a sign that say's "who's platonic now, Bitch" and wave it in JRoth's face at a con.

I was thinking earlier about my first real introduction to m/m (do we still call it slash?) and wondering how the terminologies have or haven't changed in the years since I first came to fandom. Slash was generally for same sex ships you knew weren't going to be canon, Kirk/Spock (where it all started) Mulder/Krycek, Clark/Lex (Smallville!) Now that it is more acceptable to show m/m or f/f relationships onscreen do we still call these canon couples slash? Avalance, Clexa, Malec,

Welcome

Well, I really thought I had made a dreamwidth account back in the day of Ye Old LJ purge. Maybe I did, but I just didn't use it and it got purged. I have had an LJ account since May 2002 (yikes!) but I know I was lurking through friendsfriends of people I followed from yahoogroups long before that.

My fandom history is pretty boring, JAG of all things, although being in fandom and interacting with people I met online helped me through some dark times. An irrational fear of the end of the world occuring Dec. 31, 1999. Then my boys being born premature with health problems two years later.

I dropped out of fandom when JAG ended in 2005, my daughter had just been born, my boys had started school. I went back to work.

In 2009, I discovered Twitter, but kept it to sports and news. Then in the past two years as the real world has fallen apart, I have become disillusioned again. About 6 monhts ago I decided to look through LJ and see what I could find for Timeless fandom. It was dead as I suspected, it all seemed to have moved to Tumblr. So, I started using the Tumblr I had set up but never used.

It was through Tumblr that I discovered The 100, which I just realized is incredibly ironic considering I how I used to fear all things apocalyptic. I came for Bellarke, and stayed for Bellamy Blake.

So, that's me in a nut shell. I write fic sometimes. I start strong and sometimes I even finish. I have 9 posted works to AO3, and probably 10 WIPs in my google drive. I ship Wyatt/Lucy from Timeless, I like Flynn but I don't ship Garcy. I ship Bellarke, though I don't think we are going to see canon Bellarke until the last episode of the series. I like Echo, and really don't like fics where she is made into a shrew or the bad guy. And even though I once repulsed by it, Blakecest has become my secret kink. I mean he tied a guy to a tree for kissing his sister! She knew how to kiss and she was raised below the floor!
