turpsI'm awash with love for fandom right now, also, blown away by the reaction to the kissing meme. There's so many fills already, good fills, of so many different kinds of kisses. I've been reading each one as they come in and you guys are really quite talented and amazing *___*
Sadly I must go to bed now as Corey's heading off to London first thing in the morning, which means getting up and doing his packed lunch and getting him to the coach on time.
30 days of fanfic meme time first though.
15 – Warnings – What do you feel it most important to warn for, and what's the strangest thing you've warned for in a fic?
I'd say the main ones are death and non con/dub con. I have to admit, it took me a long time to get a handle on warnings as they're just not used in popslash. In that fandom you're lucky if you get a pairing never mind warnings, ratings etc, it's just how it is. I can't think of anything strange I've actually warned for, even my out there popslash stories where there was bike/plushie/phone booth fucking and dolphin/mom love going on didn't get warned for anything.

What a wonderfully relaxed fandom popslash was. I really miss it sometimes.

Date: 2011-07-09 12:30 am (UTC)Same here. I'm reading and feedbacking and listing each one, and it's taking all my time to keep up. Not that I'm complaining.
I've told James if he wakes me in the morning I'll be annoyed. I've been looking forward to this weekend with no alarm. I'm sure Corey will have a good time, though I did laugh at his packing that included many pairs of shoes *g*
Yeah, it was relaxed. It's hard to get across just how relaxed it actually was at times. I got a comment on LJ saying how someone's old fandom would tear each other apart if there were no warnings, but popslash was different.

Date: 2011-07-08 03:34 am (UTC)That kissing commentfic meme has been ten zillion kinds of WIN, T! I kept checking it out throughout the day, wishing I had time/felt less awkward about filling in prompts (um, especially when some of those prompts are my own?>_>)
It's been really groovy to see the different pairings and kinds of kisses. \You!/
Huh, that's funny. How popslash wasn't really into warnings. 'cause, based on your answer, it sounds like there were some crazy times happening in that fandom. *g*

Date: 2011-07-09 12:35 am (UTC)I'm loving the fills people are leaving so much! I'd love to see more of your work if you decide to fill some prompts, but do get feeling awkward. I should go leave some more prompts myself, they're filling up fast over there.
Popslash was nuts, but also really small so we knew each other or knew of each other. I think that helped deal with the warnings issue.

Date: 2011-07-08 02:57 pm (UTC)It is love. It makes you wonder how the fandom did/does stay so relaxed and yet very little wank happens.

Date: 2011-07-08 04:12 am (UTC)Everything Jasley and I write together has dub-con and oc character death. Second time around we had to warn for cannibalism. We decided the only way to top ourselves was a vague beastiality scene. (Which actually brings me back to HP fandom. Ohhh Harry/Padfoot stories. How you made me lol) Apart we are a lot saner.
