I'm an AU version of myself, from a 'verse where Jon Stewart is POTUS

[china_shop]

Preferred first name: China (or my RL name if you know it).

I have a different handle at DW/AO3: Nope, I'm china_shop everywhere.

Reader/Writer/Vidder/All of the Above: Writer, vidder, recapper, comm mod, reader, vid watcher, iconner, dilettante. In that order.

My current primary fandom: White Collar (3rd year and counting).

My current secondary fandom(s): Well, technically I'd say Smash, Eureka and vidding, but Smash and Eureka are more like tertiary or quaternary fandoms. Speaking of which, I also dabbled in reading Dresden Files and The Losers during the WC hiatus, but generally, I'm all about the fandomonogamy. Other shows I currently watch (for some value of "currently") include Justified, Parks & Recreation, The Good Wife, Weeds, In Plain Sight, Archer, M*A*S*H, Deadwood, Outrageous Fortune, and Gilmore Girls. And I've just ordered Royal Pains s1. And am tentatively discussing trying SPN.

Fandom(s) I’ve broken up with: If we're talking fandoms, it's still just Due South. If we're talking shows, I've stopped watching Fringe and Sherlock, and I tried BSG and couldn't get into it.

Fandom(s) I just can’t quit: n/a

OTP forever/sometimes/OT3: I have conflicting ones! Neal/Peter, Neal/Peter/Elizabeth, Peter/Elizabeth, Neal/Clinton, Tom/Sam (Smash), Jack/Henry (Eureka), Van/Munter (Outrageous Fortune), Leslie/Ben (P&R), Dresden/Marcone (DF), Cougar/Jensen (Losers), Aurelio Zen/suits, Mary Shannon/snark.

My bullet proof kink: Mutual liking and respect, humour, snark, emotional connection, selflessness without martyrdom, not too much angst.

My major league squick: Noncon, dubcon, power differentials (especially when eroticised), White Collar actor/behind the scenes stuff (I am clinging to my suspension of disbelief by the very tips of my very short fingernails as it is), OOC kink!fic.

My guilty pleasure: I'd rather be writing than reading. Does that count? I have less shame than I used to.

My comment on slash is: I'm tired of it being considered subversive or dorky or quaint when it's often a valid reading of the text. So there. :-P

My comment on fandom more generally is: I am refusing to join the fannish migration to other platforms because of the timesuck and the spoilers, but mostly I'm pretty happy playing in my own sandpit anyway. That said, if I didn't have fandom at all, I would be sooooo sad and lonely right now.

Coke/Coke Zero/Diet Coke/Sprite/Juice: n/a

Tea/Coffee: n/a (Will bring own hot drink stuff, due to being stupidly high maintenance.)

Blue Top/Calci-Trim Milk: n/a

I would prefer junk food/I would prefer crudites: carrot and celery sticks (am happy to help chop) and salt & vinegar chippies.

I will likely come for dinner Friday: Yep.

I will likely come for dinner Saturday: Yep.

I will likely come for dinner Sunday: Yep.
