1. The first character I fell in love with: Tyrion, I think.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: like everyone, Jaime.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Jon.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates: Theon?
5. The character I would shag anytime: Oberyn.
6. The character I'd want to be like: Davos. I really admire his sense of morality.
7. The character I'd slap: Theon ^_^
8. A pairing that I love: Sandor/Sansa
9. A pairing that I despise: Jon/Dany
10. Favorite character: these days Jaime.
11. What are my five favorite things about the fandom. Intelligent discussion. Good theorising and anticipation of things to come. Lots of folk I became friends with. A good if small fanfic fandom. Good crack.
12. What are my five least favorite things about the fandom. Female characters bashing. Lots of sexism and heterosexism in general. Ficdom being so small. Flames and trolling generally speaking. Popularity of "who'd win in a fight?" discussions.
13. Who are my five favorite characters. Jaime, Sansa, Arya, Dany, Sandor.
14. Who are my five least favorite characters. Stannis, Melisandre, Asha, Lysa, Cersei.
15. What are my five favorite pairings. Sandor/Sansa, Jaime/Brienne, Jaime/Loras, Arya/Gendry, Maegaery/Sansa.
16. What are my five least favorite pairings. Jon/Dany, Asha/Theon (the weird thing is that I still read it and usually like it), Tyrion/Sansa, Loras/Margaery, Stannis/anyone.
17. Which character are you most like. I tend to think I'm a mix of Arya and Sansa XD and that quizz said I was Tyrion yesterday.
18. What is my deep, dark fandom secret. The first fanfic I wrote was, well, my first fanfic overall. It was horrendously bad. There was bad puns (we didn't use the true characters' name because it was on Ran's board which forbids fanfic), bad porn and no plot to speak of. It featured Sansa/Sandor, Arya/Sandor, and Arya/Daenarys/Sansa. I still remember it fondly ^_^;

9. A pairing that I despise: Jon/Dany

Is that a popular pairing? It seems like a very random pairing of characters who have never met and live across the ocean from each other.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Well, lots of people have this theory that Jon is the son of Rhaegar and Lyanna. And lots of people like the idea of Targaryen incest, I guess. Thus the idea of Jon and Dany hooking up and Jon becoming king or something like this.

Do you still have a copy? I'm very very curious about it.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

I may have parts of it on my home computer, which is currently broken. Remind me when I'll make the proper "computer, fixed!" noises ^^

I feel really bad for liking Jon sometimes because it is so terribly uncool. But I do anyway. And I unrepentantly ship him with anyone and everyone but especially his half-siblings.

Also I sort of resent that Sansa/Sandor is so popular it feels like the kind of canon pairing I hate when by all rights it should not and it is not the ship but the shippers that bothers me.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess half the fandom loves Jon, and half of it dislike Jon because of that love XD but I don't dislike Jon, I even like him on a good day ^^ I just don't fangirl him like some do. I do love some Jon pairings, mostly Jon/Theon, and I like Jon/Robb too. And I liked the canon Jon/Ygritte too.


I totally understand what you mean about Sandor/Sansa, it's the exactly the kind of pairing I would hate any other day, but there's something in the way GRRM wrote it that made me fall in love with it right when I was reading CoK. Every popular pairings get annoying if you're not into them, and shippers always can be annoying. So... yeah. ^^

[lodessa.livejournal.com]

I love Jon/Robb a lot. Also future Jon/Sansa because there is a lot of interesting conflict inherent there. Also I enjoyed the canon shipping too.

How you describe your feelings about Sirius/Remus in that part of these comments describes not only my own issues with Sirius/Remus but also with Sandor/Sansa.

Also do you know what I love? People who you can have different opinions than and still get along with.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Yeah, me to ♥ it's really stupid when disagreement over fictionnal pairings cause people not to get along!! XD

[lodessa.livejournal.com]

Exactly. I was just thinking how nice it is to be able to discuss differences of opinion civilly.
