Come to the SV social

"I would like to extend to you an invitation to the pants party. The party with the...with the pants. The party with pants."
"Brick, are you saying there's a party in your pants and I'm invited?" (Anchorman)



No, actually the party is in the comments of this entry! Come and join the fun and meet new people in SV fandom. I would especially like to encourage you quiet folks lurking in the back--even those of you without livejournals of your own--to drop by and introduce yourselves. We're all a pretty friendly bunch here, and we like to make new friends. Fandom is more fun when you get involved and meet people, so why don't you stop by and say hi?

Here's a little mini-questionnaire, almost completely stolen from [livejournal.com profile] svmadelyn's glee week social, in case you need a conversation starter, but feel free to answer as many or as few questions as you are interested in answering:

1. Tell us something about yourself:
2. Likes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff):
3. Dislikes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff) :
4. What got you interested in Smallville?
5. What are your favorite SV episodes?
6. What SV fanfic do you reread most often?
7. Random facts (favorite food, color you wouldn't be caught dead wearing, pets' names, number of pairs of shoes you own, where you would live if you were a billionaire, etc.)

Happy delurking day! Come join the party!

1. Tell us something about yourself: I'm a MA student in the UK (about to do a diss. on female and male homosociality in TV, yay), female, 23 years old. And I have red hair, which is both annoying, and kinda cool sometimes.

2. Likes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff): Clex! Lexana, but usually only when Lex has an ulterior motive. (shame) And I have a weakness for Chlionel. That scene in Transference ranks as one of my hottest SV scenes. Other stuff: Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Farscape, The L-word, Oz, due South, The Sentinel, UK TV comedy RPS, punk, Bill Bailey, lotsa cartoons, Y Tu Mama Tambien, BPAL. And guitars in every shape and form.

3. Dislikes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff) : Meat. Beetroot. Black leggings paired with short denim skirts.


4. What got you interested in Smallville? Zoe, Duncan Jack and Jane? No, really. I used to watch it (yes, I know. Sad.) so when I saw 'Jack' on an ad for SV, I thought, eh, why not watch? But the real moment that hooked me was the end scene of Hourglass; it had just such a gorgeous look, compared to the horror of what was happening.

5. What are your favorite SV episodes? Shattered, Asylum, Transference, Phoenix, Hug, Shimmer, Stray, Drone (seriously, if only for the slashiness) Splinter, Hourglass (see above), Rogue, Jitters, and the Pilot.
I think i'm missing some, but I'm drawing a blank right now.

6. What SV fanfic do you reread most often? Space Oddity and its sequel by FayJay (for the happy porn), Immortality by Grail (for the gut-wrenching pain), Playing Banjo in Sgt Zygote's Ragtome Band by Aklani (for MPREG), Demarcation by Livia (happy future-fic) Sleep While I Drive by Jenn...you know what, I have a whole folder of favourites, I can't list them all :D


7. Random facts (favorite food, color you wouldn't be caught dead wearing, pets' names, number of pairs of shoes you own, where you would live if you were a billionaire, etc.)

My RL name features in a song about a hooker: people think my parents actually named me after of this song. It is not flattering. I once met Desert Orchid. I'm currently eating a Fruit Pastil ice lolly.

Y Tú Mama También is a great movie. I love Gael García Bernal, the actor!

He is so awesome. And he likes to play the slashy roles, yay!

Oh, Chlionel! Yes, that's definitely one of my guilty pleasures. I really wish that scene in Transference had gone a *lot* further, actually.

Thanks for stopping by the party!

*blinks* It didn't? In my version they have the sex on the Torch desk. But maybe I got the super-secret all-in-my-head screening.

Red hair is pretty.

Your dissertation sounds very very interesting. I hope you're enjoying it and that it turns out well.

Thanks! I like red hair mostly, except for the mocking :)

How can people mock you for it? Pssh. They are silly.

I think it's an English thing. They fear the redheads over here!

My RL name features in a song about a hooker

Oh! Roxanne?

[identity profile] hazywizard.livejournal.com 2006-05-27 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
You called?

I mean, yes, that's the one. Hee, good catch :)

I like your post! *g* Your dissertations subject sounds great! How fun to get to do that.

Thank you! It should be interesting at least. Lots of tv watching, yay!

Lexana with Cluelessly betrayed Lana is my favourite. Or Lexana with Lana as Lex’s conduit to Clark.
