| Read and/or write? | I read & translate English fics into German |
| Since when? | approximately 2 years |
| How did you stumble into slash? | I just thought I'd give it a try with one story... then I was hooked |
| Your first fandom and pairing: | BtVS/AtS - Spike/Angel |
| The first person you told about your new hobby: | My boyfriend |
| The fandoms you read: | BtVS, AtS, LotR, LotR RPS, PotC, Harry Potter, Highlander, Smallville, StarWars |
| The fandoms you write: | none, but I translate BtVS/AtS, PotC |
| Your favourite pairings: | Spike/Angel, Harry/Draco, Sirius/Remus, Aragorn/Legolas, Viggo/Orlando, Will/Jack, Duncan/Methos, Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan |
| Favourite genres: | Angst, Romance, H/C, Adventure |
| Least favourite pairings: | Anything involving guys who are smaller than my little cousins |
| Least favourite genres: | Mpreg, Marriage!Fics and Child!Fics I guess, though lately I happened to come across some that were pretty damn good |
| What makes a story good? | emotions, character development, suspense, plot |
| What makes a story bad? | one-dimensional characters, OOCness, badly written sex, unconvincing character development |
| The best author: | for me... Jenny aka Lady Moluk - she's a Goddess |
| Why? | She's got an amazing grip of the characters, writes incredibly hot sex scenes and there's so much love and emotions in her stories. I also love all the different layers in her stories and the psychological subtext. |
| The best story you've ever read: | Too many to count. Though "As it was, so shall it be" will probably always be one of my favourites. It was the first one to haunt me in my dreams after I read it. |
| The worst author: | Don't know... I tend to forget stories I disliked. |
| Why? | Probably because it was a MarySue or had countless grammar and spelling mistakes in it. That's the stuff I can't forgive. English is my second language and if *I* notice the errors the author really needs a beta badly. |
| The worst story you've ever read: | Some Spangel-Mary Sue I think. Though I've seen a lot of stuff that made me want to rip my eyes out... |
| The best story you have written: | Don't write, sorry. |
| The worst story you have written: | Again... I'm not a writer (thank God!) |
| Do you leave feedback? | Sometimes... not always. I know I suck. |
| Do you get feedback? | For my art sometimes... |
| Do you have a favorite kink? | More than just one... so no - no favourite I guess... |
| Does something squick you? | Toe sucking... ewwwww... child sex, incest |
| Is slash simply sex? | No |
| Is slash a way of life? | I guess you could say that... |
| How much time do you spend reading/writing? | Couple of hours each day |
| Do you have RL friends who slash? | Yes |
| Have you made online friends through slash? | Yes |
| Do you think slash is just a phase? | I hope not... I have way too much fun reading it. |
| Could you simply stop slashing? | No... I'm an addict. |
| What do you think about... |
| Ratings G to PG-13 | I don't mind them at all if there's good plot and good character development. I don't need sex if there's enough angst and romance. |
| Ratings R to NC-17 | I take a well written sex scene anytime... though I do like some plot to go with it. |
| AUs | I love them. I've read some interesting AU stuff over the years. |
| ARs | Haven't read many of those... |
| Crackfics | Not for me, thanks. |
| Porn | I like it now and then if it's well written... but mostly I prefer plot. |
| Angst | I love it, love it, love it... LOVE IT. |
| Mush | Sure... though it *can* get too much. |
| Love | Essential for me. |
| Romance | Love it. |
| BDSM | I really like it now and then... but it needs to be well written and it doesn't work for each and every character. |
| Darkfics | Sometimes, but mostly I prefer happy endings. |
| Deathfics | I've read some I liked... but I wouldn't want to read them every day. Way too depressing. |
| Non consensual/rape | I don't mind it in H/C stories, but reading rape in RPS kinda squicks me. |
| Rape recovery | Goooooood... |
| FPS | Yep. |
| RPS | Yep (but only one pairing so far) |
| RPG | Never been interested. |
| First times | I love them. |
| Established relationships | Those I love, too. |
| Threesomes | Try to avoid them... mostly I want my boys to be exclusive. |
| m/m slash | My drug of choice... |
| femmeslash | Only read one or two so far... they're okay I guess, just not my cup of tea. |
| Slashing a children's book/movie | Don't mind that... I do read HP slash after all. |
| Chanslash | Kinda squicks me. I don't mind, if the characters are not too young in the stories. 16 is okay I guess. I don't like kid/adult pairings though. |
| Explicit sex | Oh yeah. |
| The importance of charactarization | Essential |
| OOCness | Don't like it when it becomes too obvious. Though OOC is something you can always argue about. Not everybody sees the characters like I see them. |
| Canon | Like it. |
| Fanon | Like that one, too. |
| Cliches | Why not... if they turn out to be a good read. |
| Supernatural | Love it when it's well done. |
| MPREG | Hate them most of the time, though I've read some great ones lately. Just don't turn one of the boys into a wimp. |
| Wingfics | Why not... only read one so far and I liked it. |
| Genderfuck | Bah, not for me. |
| Crossovers | Haven't read a good one so far. I'd love to though |
| Group Slut Fics | Nope |
| Incest | NOPE! |
| May/December | Don't mind that. |
| Het pairings in a slash fic | Not if I can avoid them. |
| Plot | YES YES YES... |
| PWPs | Sometimes... but they need to be well written. |
| WIPs | HATE THEM... especially when they're good but abandoned. |
| LJ fics and communities | Love them, great fic supply. |
| Mailing lists | Used to live there... |
| Big Name Fans | Suck most of the times. |
| Politics in a slash story | Boring |
| Religion in a slash story | Err... I don't even care about it too much in RL... |
| Wake up Gay | *lol* |
| And finally.... |
