got a little bit of dirty down in my soul | sinning for a living's really taking its toll

[redbrunja]

ended up having several really long conversations with qualapec today, the relevant (to fandom) portions of which involved:

• me bitching about the deep, inherent, not-even-solvable-by-casting-Idris-Elba script problems with Blade: Trinity


• who would you kill if you could kill one dude from Teen Wolf? (I voted Peter Hale, killed by Allison and Lydia)


• one thing I forgot to mention; besides the fact that I do not understand the point of a tumblr queue, I could never have a tumblr queue because I cannot think of a quip enough queue tag, unlike all the epic tumblrs with perfect and brilliant and referential queue I follow.


• various Teen Wolf ships, emphasis on Malia/Stiles and Lydia/Stiles and Allison/Isaac


• QUALAPEC BROUGHT MY ATTENTION TO THE FACT THAT SIF/LOKI IS A TWISTED KING & LIONHEART DYNAMIC AND I ALMOST DIED FROM THE SHEER AWESOMENESS OF THAT IMAGE.


• qualapec wondering if Loki fangirls will jump on the Bucky Barnes train. my thought is the Loki fangirls are either already on board the Bucky Barnes train and what we will see in fandom is an explosion of Steve/Bucky. The only question regarding Winter Soldier is how much hate Natasha and Sharon will get, and which one fandom is going to hate more. (Spoiler alert, it's going to be Sharon. Natasha will be relegated to being SO AWESOME but her relationship with Steve and/or Bucky is STRICTLY PLATONIC. Which is for the best, because Natasha is just TOO AWESOME TO BE DATING ~CAPTAINS AMERICA~ *eyeroll*)


• my deep and heartfelt lament that Steve/Bucky fanfic is almost invariably well-written and is the most tropperiffic fanfic to have ever been written in the history of fandom. In other news, there is no god.

I somehow doubt the Loki fangirls will jump on the Bucky Barnes train -- they are fundamentally differently formed creatures and you really can't approach them the same way.

That was my call. Like, I don't think we're going to get a lot of overlap there.

Ever since the whole gross Clint/Nat versus Bucky/Nat versus Steve/Nat ship wars (BUT WHO HAS EARNED HER MORE? none of them, asswipes, because she's a fucking human and not a carnival prize)

The only surprise there is that there were enough Nat/Steve shippers to make a voice heard.

I feel you. I'm emotionally stuck on a pairing right now, and like, one other person writes it or knows what I'm talking about and so I just reread her fic and my fic over and over again.
