Challenge #13

In your own space, share a favorite memory about fandom: the first time you got into fandom, the last time a fanwork touched your heart, wild times with fellow fans (whether on-line or off-line), a lovely comment you’ve received or have left for someone. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


You know you've been in fandom for a long time when this question really stumps you because there are so. many. options. Fandom has been very, very good to me when it comes to making good memories. I think, because it's on my mind due to being delayed again, I'll talk about my very first Anime North and what I remember of it. Which isn't a lot, it turns out, because at the time both [tumblr.com profile] Placidia and I were working midnights, which meant we were both Really Sleepy. I'm a little foggy what year this was (somewhere between 2003 and 2007) but I have a very clear memory of watching my very first AMV Contest and being... awed. Sitting at the back of the crowd, almost delirious with exhaustion at 7 pm, both of us mesmerized. We haven't missed an Anime North since (ignoring, like, ~Current Events~) and we always make time for the AMV Contest. I can't wait to watch another one.

Challenge #14

In your own space, post your pictures of your fandom scavenger hunt results. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


There is an option to just do descriptions, so I'm doing that instead. :)

1. a fannish item: my Marvel Legends Longshot and Dazzler figures that forever live together beside my desk.
2. something round: I have a donut-shaped Pusheen plush that is round and soft and wonderful.
3. something that is your favorite color: my boxset of the manga series Yellow which is, you guessed it, yellow.
4. the last game you played (video, phone, table top, etc.): Animal Crossing: New Horizons in which I am forever searching for that last art piece for my museum.
5. a book you are currently reading: fan translation of Run with the Wind by Shion Miura (which contains so much more delicious canon, it's wonderful).
6. album art of the first song that comes up on shuffle: TIL I have the Boruto: The Naruto Movie soundtrack on my phone. In particular, this track.
7. the last movie you watched: Reunion: Escape from the Monstrous Snake (since I had just finished watching the first season of the third Lost Tomb series with [tumblr.com profile] Placidia).
8. TV show you're currently watching: ER. I'm on season 10. 5 more to go!
9. the homescreen, lockscreen, or desktop wallpaper from your device: the full version of my Dreamwidth icon for this entry is my phone lockscreen. Because I always need more Warren in my life.
