Date: 2018-08-08 04:32 pm (UTC)screen name(s) (AO3/tumblr/etc): saiditallbefore on tumblr/AO3/discord/DW/probably a few other places. I don't hang out in namespace on DW very much but feel free to add me.
current fandoms: Star Wars is the major one that is eating my life, but I'm also into a million and one smaller fandoms, including but not limited to Steerswoman by Rosemary Kirstein, H2O: Just Add Water, Lost Girl, Discworld, Six of Crows, The Good Place, and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
faves: Uhhh check out my ship list below, that should give you an idea.
ships: ALL OF THEM. Um. I mean. Star Wars fandom is just a mess of ships and I will ship anything. Go check my DW exchange letters and come back if you really wanna know. I'm also definitely here for Bel/Rowan (Steerswoman), all combos of the main girls (plus Charlotte) in H2O, Bo/everyone (but especially Bo/Kenzi) in Lost Girl, Nina/Inej (Six of Crows), Tahani/Eleanor (The Good Place), and all the ships in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend but especially every combo of Rebecca/Heather/Valencia.
about you: I do way too many exchanges, but that's not going to stop me from signing up for more. I co-mod a discord for Star Wars talk called the Mos Eisley Cantina (there's a permanent invite on my tumblr if you wanna check it out). I have too many feelings about women in canon who barely meet each other and I want them all to kiss.

Date: 2018-08-11 12:07 am (UTC)But I was also coming here to say what other nonnie said about the Monstrous Regiment threads. Respect. <3
no subject
Date: 2018-08-08 11:41 pm (UTC)current fandoms: Steven Universe, FMA (BH/manga), Sleepless Domain, Starward Lovers, Nausicaa manga, Emara: Emirates Hero (if I can find someone to discuss it with...), Overwatch, various animated movie fandoms, various small book fandoms
ships: kkoraki.tumblr.com/ships has a fairly comprehensive list (includes m/m and m/f, be warned)
about you: Most of my fandom engagement is in the context of small exchanges right now. I love monsters, aliens, robots, and xeno in general and I have a lot of crackships. Outside of exchanges I don't generate a ton of content besides the occasional fic/art but I'm always down to RP. I like cats, insects, and arachnids and I read a lot about genocide, LGBT history, and the psychology of trauma. uhh... I like femslash?
no subject
Date: 2018-08-09 01:26 am (UTC)current fandoms: My big three at the moment are Star Wars, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and the Good Place. I have smaller fandoms as well - I'm pretty hardcore into Killing Eve, PoI, and Tekken.
faves: Oh boy. Assuming this is characters?
Star Wars: Leia, Padmé, Amiln, Aphra.
Dragon Age: ALL OF THEM, uh....Josephine, Lelina, Merrill, Isabella, and Aveline are my top five.
Mass Effect: ALL OF - okay, it's getting old. Tali, Ash, and Miri are probably my big three.
The Good Place: Eleanor, Tahani, Janet, Vicky.
ships:
Star Wars: Padmé/Sabé, Padmé/every handmaiden pretty much tbqh, Padmé/Dormé, Padmé/Aurra Sing, Padmé/Ahsoka, Padmé/Satine, Leia/Jyn, Leia/Amilyn, Leia/Pash, Aphra/Leia, Aphra/Tolvan, Rey/Leia, Rey/Jssica Pava
Mass Effect: Female Shep/Tali, Femshep/Miri, Femshep/Jack, Femshep/Samantha
Dragon Age: Fem Adaar/Josephine, Fem Hawke/ISabella, Fem Hawke/Isabella/Merrill, Isabella.Merrill, Fem Hawke/Merrill, Few Warden/Leliana, Fem Warden/Anora, Anora/Ser Cauthren
Good Place: Tahani/Eleanor, Janet/Everyone
about you: I sign up for a lot of stuff fandom-wise (probably too much ) and have no intention of stopping. I co-mod the excellent Mos Eisley Cantina with fellow femslash lover and all-around excellent person Said (friend her!), and I also co-run the Spectre's Requisition and Black Emporium, which are rare pair exchanges for mass effect and dragon age, respectively. We've got a lot of femslash fans and we're always looking for more. :D

current fandoms: I'm basically in a million small fandoms at all times. The big ones right now are Disney's Descendants (eternal fave), Jane the Virgin, The Good Place, Crazy Ex Girlfriend, RWBY, and Harlots.
faves: Blake Belladonna from RWBY, because she is the girl version of the Angsty Badass Who Is Secretly Soft-Hearted archetype I loved when I was a teenager. Petra from Jane the Virgin, because I love two things: femme fatales and redemption arcs. Paris Geller from Gilmore Girls and Pearl from Steven Universe, because I have a weakness for Type A weirdos who are also complex and fascinating characters. Tahani from The Good Place, because she needs a hug. And, last but not least, Harriet Lennox from Harlots, because she gets shit done.
ships:
Descendants: The OT4, Mal/Evie, Mal/Audrey.
Jane the Virgin: Petra/JR and Petra/Jane
The Good Place: Eleanor/Tahani
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: Honestly I don't have strong feelings about any configuration of Heather, Valencia, and Rebecca, but I want them all to have girlfriends. Also Valencia/Beth.
RWBY: Blake Belladonna/pretty much any woman but especially Yang and Ruby.
Harlots: Mags/Nancy, Charlotte/Isabella, Violet/Amelia, Harriet/Kitty (weird rarepair, I know), and I firmly believe Lucy should have a girlfriend but I'm not sure who it should be.
about you: Hi! I'm not very active in any fandoms, but I'm really into exchanges. I love slow burns, weird AUs, and hurt/comfort femslash. I also am on a huge nostalgia kick lately so if anyone wants to talk about the femslash potential of the Maximum Ride or Dear Dumb Diary books, I'm down.
me!
Date: 2018-08-10 03:29 pm (UTC)screen name(s) (AO3/tumblr/etc): reconditarmonia (on tumblr)
current fandoms: Currently obsessed with Harlots, watching Buffy for the first time, perennial lover of Monstrous Regiment, rewatching Madoka with best friend in order to introduce it to gf; classic lit especially Shakespeare, Dishonored, Simoun, Princess Principal... I also started Alpennia and then was immediately derailed by like 3 other books I'm reading, but I like it so far.
faves: Charlotte Wells, Polly Perks
ships: Let's see... I'm enjoying Charlotte Wells/Lady Fitz and Mags/Nancy. Polly/Mal and Tonker/Lofty are my forever OTPs. MISS PAULING/ADMINISTRATOR for the loyalty kink. Ange/Charlotte for the same reason. Oscar/Rosalie. Delilah Copperspoon/Billie Lurk. On the rule 63 front, currently super into f!Benedick/Beatrice.
Buuuut I'm also super into familial/platonic Lydia Quigley/Charlotte Wells.
about you: I'm trying to get back into writing lately (my first finished fic in 4+ years, a Billie Lurk fic for Every Woman!); about to take a look at the Femslashex and Original Works tagsets and see if there's anything I feel able enough to offer that I can write for an exchange with a deadline less than a week before the show I'm directing opens, and the day after it opens, respectively :o

current fandoms: Star Trek Discovery! Show of my heart right now. The Expanse. Murderbot (not really a femslash fandom, heh), The Comfortable Courtesan. Oh! and DC's Bombshells. :D
Also, perennially, Steerswoman, Star Trek generally esp. DS9, Doctor Who, Babylon 5, Raksura, Foreigner & Alliance/Union. Questionable Content webcomic.
faves: Kat Cornwell 5eva. Michael Burnham, Philippa Georgiou, fandom's Afsaneh Paris (Commodore Paris from Star Trek Beyond, imported to Disco). All the Daxes, especially the women; Kira Nerys; Tora Ziyal; Ro Laren; Kathryn Janeway; B'Elanna Torres.
Chrisjen motherfucking Avasarala, Bobbie Draper, Naomi Nagata, and (growing quickly on me) Drummer. Delenn, Ivanova; most of the Dr Who companions especially Sarah Jane Smith (mostly seen her on SJA), Jo Grant, River Song; book companion Sam Jones (canonically had a girlfriend, and settled down with Sarah Jane when she left the TARDIS!); Missy; v. interested in Thirteen.
Murderbot (which, again, neither female nor femslash, but <3<3<3). Clorinda and Eliza (and Abby and Lady Jane and Miss A- and Docket and Flora and Hannah and...) in The Comfortable Courtesan. Raksura generally, atevi generally (and Jago in specific, also Irene-future-paidhi). Faye and Bubbles and honestly most of the QC cast too. :D It's really hard to pick a Bombshells fave but I'd say Lois Lane, Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Power Girl, and probably Raven.
ships: Kat/Philippa, Kat/Mirror Philippa, Philippa/Afsaneh, Kat/Philippa/Afsaneh, Michael/Mirror Philippa, Kat/L'Rell...you can see where this is going. ALL OF THEM, OKAY. *hearteyes* Also Jadzia/Lenara, Kira/everything good in life especially hot gay sex (Keiko, Ezri, Ro Laren), Janeway/Torres,
Janeway/me. Oh and Intendent Kira/Ezri Tigan! Though Emperor Georgiou does "hot and evil" even better.Clorinda/Eliza is the comfort ship of my heart. <3 Chrisjen Avasarala/Bobbie Draper, with a side of Naomi Nagata/Drummer. Delenn/Ivanova, Delenn/Mayan, Delenn/everyone, Delenn/Sarah Jane Smith, generally in favour of DW femslash but don't really write any of it.
Bel/Rowan. Meg Kady/Sal Aboujib. Bombshells Supergirl/Lois Lane. And Faye/Bubbles, delicious slow burn ship of my heart (THEY FINALLY KISSED!). :D
about you: I don't actually post that much! I'm more of a lurker, though I tend to comment on other people's blogs or on anon memes more than actually post to my own blog or Tumblr. (Tumblr's hard on my limited Internet access so I'm not there that much either, sadly.) I can get happily tl;dr or keep up long comment chains though if something strikes my interest. Sporadic surges of fic, which tend towards two extremes: ridiculous niche fluff (I wrote a Steerswoman/Neko Atsume crossover once, ok) and ridiculous iddy angsty porn, often not much less niche. :D The latter has been almost entirely femslash lately, and tons of fun.

Date: 2018-08-11 12:52 am (UTC)preferred name(s): Rachel
current fandoms: Stephen King, True Detective, The Punisher, assorted obscure books that are not even fandoms except for three people at Yuletide. As you can see from that list, I would be all over some darker female-centric canons if you have any recs.
faves: Rachel Summers, Illyana Rasputin, Storm, Kitty Pryde, basically all female characters ever written by Chris Claremont, Dayna Jurgens, Susannah Dean, Susan Delgado, Rowan & Bel, Eleanor & Tahani & Janet, the Madoka Magica girls, Arashi & Yuzuriha & Karen from X/1999.
ships: All the X-women I mentioned above in various permutations plus many other FF X-Men ships, Menolly/Mirrim, Emily Byrd Starr/Ilse Burnley, Corky/Violet, Dutch/Delle Seyah Kendry, Buffy/Faith, Phedre/Melisande, Utena/Anthy, various FF ships from The Stand, everyone in various permutations in Madoka Magica... I'm a multi-shipper so if there's lots of women with interesting relationships, I will probably ship them all.
about you: I like FF and I cannot lie! Check out
no subject
Date: 2018-08-12 07:24 pm (UTC)preferred name(s): Um, well. I’m coming out of extreme lurkdom so I don’t have one I prefer at the moment. Possum probably rolls of the tongue easiest, huh?
current fandoms: Everything and anything. Last new things I watched were: Voltron (not super into the fandom but I do have ships) and Sharp Objects. I love Star Trek, Animorphs, The Sims, and Fallout. Oh, I love GLOW too! After years of not reading anything but fic (mostly), I’ve seriously gotten back into reading. I’m about to start Monstrous Regiment thanks to the wank. I’ve just finished The Subtle Knife and LYYYYYRAAAAA.
faves: Captain Kathryn Janeway, of course. Cassie and Rachel and Eva and Visser One from Animorphs. I’m a big fan of some of the pre-made Sims like the Caliente sisters, Bella and Cassandra Goth and the Pleasants. There’s a Sims fandom, but it’s less focused on characters in a traditional fandom way so it’s kind a weird thing to be into. Love me another Cass, too: Rose of Sharon Cassidy from Fallout New Vegas. My faves are basically a bunch of characters no one really knows in current fandom (except Janeway). It’s sad. I love Veronica from the newest Voltron season.
ships: Cassie/Rachel, Janeway/Amelia Earhart (that’s right! I need an AU where she joined the crew). Janeway/Seven, Janeway/well, everyone, really. Pidge/Allura. Zethrid/Exor. Like, everyone/everyone on GLOW tbh. Camille/Amma from Sharp Objects (yes, I loooove sister ships). Rule!63 Reylo is good. Tons I’m probably forgetting.
about you: It’s my birthday tomorrow and I’ll now be year away from my 20’s, heh. I’m just a lurker who wants friends. My tumblr screen name is a Jesus Christ Superstar reference. For some reason when they sung “Always hoped I’d be an apostle,” my brain hears “Always hoped I’d be an oppossum.”

Date: 2018-09-02 01:42 am (UTC)current fandoms: Shin Megami Tensei/Persona, Ace Attorney, some Fire Emblems, Dangan Ronpa (though I just bought V3 in a recent sale and haven't played it yet), Pokemon, When They Cry. If it's a video game and it has canon f/f I've probably played it or at least I have it in my library and intend to play it, and if it's a video game I'm familiar with without canon f/f I probably have f/f ships, but I don't necessarily post much about all of these if they don't have decent-sized fandoms? For things that aren't video games, uh, I'm perennially into Utena and Sailor Moon? Most other things I've drifted away from. I read a lot of yuri manga but mostly they don't have fandoms.
faves: If you look for the character who is some combination of (a) a huge nerd, (b) an older-sister type, and (c) at least subtextually really gay, it's probably that one.
ships: I started listing them but honestly there are few combinations of women in the listed fandoms that I don't ship, unless they're closely related. (I'm not an anti, it's just not my thing.) Even if they've never met/barely interact in canon, I have probably considered the possibility.
about you: Other common themes on my Tumblr besides fictional lesbians include languages, Gay Shit, theater, tabletop RPGs (including things other than D&D, not including any actual-play podcasts), cute animals, and cooking. (As far as theater goes, I do have some femslash ships but am pretty sure I'm alone in most of them, so the majority of what I post/reblog about theater is not femslash-related.) I cosplay; I keep all photos of myself to a sideblog but will reblog photos of other cosplayers, so if you find the whole concept unbearably embarrassing you probably will not have a good time following me. Uh... IDK what else. I wrote Carmen Sandiego smut once?

Date: 2018-09-12 10:45 pm (UTC)preferred name(s): calling me by one of my handles is fine!
current fandoms: Star Wars (I'm in deep), Buffy (TV, though I've watched the movies and am aware of the comics existing). Sometimes I poke into other fandoms, like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Black Lightning, Disney Princesses, The Good Place, Wynonna Earp, and Xena. Still love Jupiter Ascending, Veronica Mars, ATLA, Korra, Sailor Moon, Utena (anime-only), Princess Tutu (anime-only), W.I.T.C.H., The Mummy universe, Stardust, Rose of Versailles (anime-only), and Harry Potter. Ocean's 8 is great. I've read the first book of The School for Good and Evil. Used to be into Once Upon a Time, still cautiously and nostalgically fond of some of my ships.
faves:
Buffy: Buffy, Tara, Kendra. Willow, Cordelia, Anya. Dawn. Kennedy. Satsu (though I mostly pretend the comics are some alternate reality.)
Star Wars: Ahsoka, Kaeden, Jyn, Rose, Amilyn, Leia.
Xena: Xena, Gabrielle, Callisto, Lao Ma, Akemi, Cyane (the one evil Xena fought), Aphrodite, Ephiny, M'Lila.

The Mummy: Evelyn, Anck Su Namun/Meela, Cassandra
Stardust: Yvaine, Lamia, Una
The Good Place; Eleanor, Tahani, Janet, Vicky.
ships: I generally ship the women above with each other...and everyone else! Some of the bigger-to-me/long-standing ships are Buffy/Tara, Buffy/Kendra, Buffy/Cordelia, Buffy/Satsu, Ahsoka/Kaeden, Ahsoka/Asajj, Ahsoka/Kalifa, Ahsoka/Rey, Ahsoka/every woman in Star Wars at this point, Xena/Callisto, Xena with every female companion she ever had, Emma/Elsa, Emma/Ruby, Katara/Azula...I just don't want the list to get as unwieldy as the one above did.
about you: I'm inconstant about posting on my Tumblr and Pillowfort accounts--though I do always look at blogs--and my DW/LJ presence is mostly exchange letters, though I want to try and start posting across all my platforms. My focus tends to be on one or two fandoms at a time, but I'm a fannish chameleon with many interests, especially when TV season gets going.
Not too many of them are books, because I've become such a bad reader, but I'm hoping to wind up with some good book ships after reading some of what's waiting for me.
Got into fic through exchanges and most of my fic is still that, but I'm slowly branching out! It's just none of it is on AO3 yet.
Genre preferences are fantasy, fairytales, and the gothic, but I tend to love stories from all kinds of places.
