Oh, restrictedsection.org is open. It's very pretty. But it should be ... what are they, nine or ten, who are working on it? While we are only three with ERISED and none of us has been giving it much time (we are busy people).
One thing I see while searching rs.org ... our chief pairings on ERISED, R/Hr and H/G, hardly exists yet on rs.org. But they have an excellent search engine.
Well, long live the smut.
I took this survey of some random LJ ...
How long you have been in the fandom?Since April 2001
First fic you ever read? I read one long before I entered the fandom ... that horrible Lily one I kept talking about.
First GOOD fic you ever read? Hermione's 4th Year. It was like I had been walking in a desert for many, many days and finally found water.
Favourite fic? They are so many. I will always love Hermione's 4th Year to pieces as I love HQoW, AtE, Under a Dark Star, Penpusher's Trilogy, Thing1's stories, Padma's Quest, The Unknown Want, Plugs and Outlets, Not as a Last Resort, Jedi Boadicea's stories, A Certain Point of View, Finding Lily, the Best Man stories etc. I can go on and on. And as for non-SQ stories ... I shall name the three biggest gems in my opinion, Snitch!, The Draco Trilogy and I was Right by Earthwalk.
Most canon-like fic you've ever read? Hermione's 4th Year. HQoW comes close but due to the diary form, I think Hermione's 4th Year has the winning.
Best wildly AU fic you've ever read? Hmmm ... that would be Snitch!
Funniest fic you've ever read? Plugs and Outlets ...
First ship? Ron/Hermione
Favourite ship? Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny, Fred/Angelina, Remus/Sirius
Guilty pleasure ship? Harry/Draco, Ron/Draco, Draco/Ginny, Harry/Ron ...
Ship that makes you cringe, then makes you want to read more? Hmmm ... hard one. Snape/Hermione ...
Ship that just makes you cringe? All twincest and incest.
Fandom bandwagons that you refuse to jump on? None that I remember
Fandom bangwagons that you have jumped on? The LJ one is the biggest ...
How long it took you to jump on the LJ bandwagon? Very long ... I clung to my blog for very, very long ...
Number of people on your LJ friends list? 52
Number of people who have you on their LJ friends list? 38 ...
Number of people from the fandom that you have met in Real Life? Two ... :D ... hey I live in Iceland ... and Miss Pince doesn't count
Number of people from the fandom that you have spoken to on the phone? besides Miss Pince, I have talked to Sarah Black and texted
akela
On a scale of one to ten, the level at which you feel you are unhealthily obsessed with the HP fandom? There's nothing unhealthy about my obsession ...
The level at which other people might say you're obsessed? I think my mum thinks I'm 10 or 11
Fics you have written or are writing? Have written: At the Eve of Things and Hiding Place, Am writting: All is Full of Love and Dark Knight
Fic you wish you wrote? One fic that I wish I wrote ... that would be Under a Dark Star by Medusa. I think then I would know to do with my life ... I would become a real author.
Fics that you would like to someday write? Loads of smut for ERISED .. :D
Plot bunnies that are nibbling at you so hard, you fear they will eat your first born child if you don't write them? Dark Knignt had already eaten my first three children, then there are few smutty ones, the one with Arthur and the rubber duck, one based on Friends with Ron and Hermione, outtakes from the At the Eve of Things/All is Full of Love universe, the sequel to Dark Knight, that founders/Njal's saga crossover etc.
Favourite canon character(s)? Ron, Harry, Hermione, Fred & George, Ginny, Remus, Arthur, Sirius, Snape, Angelina, Molly, Percy, Bill, Charlie etc.
Favourite fanon character(s)? Mick O'Malley, Rose Brown, Raven (from Under a Dark Star) ... damn they are so many ...
Favourite movie character(s)? movie!Ron, Lockhart!, Fang, Tom Riddle, Lucius Malfoy, movie!Ginny, the Ford Anglia ...
Most fun character(s) to write? Probably Ginny and Ron
Most difficult character(s) to write? Hermione
Easiest character(s) to write? Ginny, Ron and Harry
Number of people in your "real" life who know you are a Harry Potter fan? Most people who know me know. Then there was this radio interview where I appeared as a Harry Potter specialist. ... :D
Number of people in your "real" life who know you write fanfiction? My mum, my niece and quite a lot of my friends
Most embarrassing thing you have ever done in the name of your HP obsession? Embarrassing ... not for me but for the person in question ... I was on a course about fantasy literature and the teacher was talking about Hermione and what she had seen in the mirror of erised ... well, I corrected her on that in front of the entire class.
Most appropriately chosen members of the movie casts? Kenneth as Lockhart, Alan as Snape, Robbie as Hagrid, Rupert as Ron, Sean as Oliver ... :D
Most innappropriately chosen members of the movie casts? It saddens me to tell this but Richard Harris as Dumbledore :(
Things you should be doing instead of filling out this survey? Getting ready for work ... and reading Firelock's AtE outtake but I need something to do at work today.
But this survey is from
ashavah
Me on My Fics a.k.a. Ooh, Lockhart!
Best story I think I've written: I'm very proud of some moments in All is Full of Love but I have the feeling if I may become intolerably Lockhartish that Dark Knight will be my best written piece yet.
Favorite story of mine: All is Full of Love. I can't really explain but it's my favourite.
Most underrated story of mine: Dunno. All is Full of Love perhaps. It has the most reviews over all. 15 on the Quill (after the move ... it was getting decent amount of reviews on the old Quill) and 22 on ff.n but considering the lenght (10 chapters) it's bit disappointing.
Most overrated story of mine: Dinner: Interminable Madness without doubt. Just go and check out the reviews on Riddikulus here. See the names? Try and read the story. Do I deserve those reviews?
