Name: Elfflame (though I will answer to Elf)
Age: Older than Star Wars.
Country: USA's Left Coast
Subscription/Access Policy: I will only be locking down private info or NC-17 posts, and I will friend back so long as you are of age.

Main Fandoms: Harry Potter, Merlin, Star Wars, Star Trek
Other Fandoms: Supernatural, MCU, DC (Batman, Teen Titans comics, CW's DC Universe), Elfquest (if you love this please friend me. I can always use more friends who love it), Stargate, Buffy, Battlestar Galactica (Either), Law & Order, Doctor Who, Firefly, Forever Knight, Labyrinth, LoTR, Narnia, Queer as Folk, Hunger Games.
Fannish Interests: I'm a mostly retired Fic writer, though I still write about one fic a year for daily_deviant's Kinky Kristmas over at IJ. I read when I find something that fits into my loves, which generally means Harry/Draco or Marauders or Next Gen fic, though I occasionally delve into other ships or other fandom fic. Been a while since I read anything outside of Harry Potter fic, but I've been watching lots of dystopian shows these days, and I can see myself digging into fic if I find that.
OTPs and Ships: Most of my ships are in Harry Potter, and I have quite a few, though I do occasionally delve into others. Harry Potter: Harry/Draco, Severus/Draco, Remus/Regulus, Teddy/Scorpius, Draco/Teddy, Teddy/James Sirius; Merlin: Arthur/Merlin, Morgana/Gwen; Buffy: Angel/Buffy, Oz/Willow, Willow/Tara; Others: Batman/Catwoman, Han/Leia, Finn/Poe, Riker/Troi, Janeway/Chakoty, Apollo/Starbuck (new), Mal/Inara, Edmond/Caspian, Brian/Justin. To name a select few.

Favourite Movies: Star Wars, Star Trek, MCU (particularly Captain America), Labyrinth, Hunger Games, Contact, Handmaid's Tale (looking forward to the TV show), Color Purple, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Moulin Rouge, Singin in the Rain, Sixth Sense.
TV Shows: Supernatural, DC Shows, The 100,
Books: Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Divergent, Kushiel Series, Handmaid's Tale, and too many more to mention. I lean towards Fantasy, Sci Fi, Dystopia/post-apocalyptic, YA, and adult M/M romances, especially those that fall into those genres.
Music: Music wavers, but at the moment I've been immersed in Hamilton and the Hamilton Mix Tape. Generally, I love oldies. 80s, 70s, 60s and 50s. Top three bands are Beatles, Queen, and Suede.
Games: Haven't been playing any big games recently. I'm on Kongregate under the same user name, and I have an account at Steam and far too many games there to count.
Comics/Anime/Misc: Elfquest, Fables, Buffy Season 8. I also grew up collecting DC, particularly Legion of Super-Heroes and Teen Titans, and anything Superman or Batman related.
Other: Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde, Hamilton, Phantom of the Opera, Wicked; Genealogy, writing in general, NaNoWriMo.

About me:
Seattlite living with the man in my life--a black cat named Nicholai. I work full time and try to convince myself to write in between work time. I went from voracious reader to full-time-student to a big fic reader, but I am finally back to to reading "real" stories, with the added benefit of a whole new genre. My out-and-about time involve movies, food, and board games.

Elfquest, you said?

I'm not super-active in the fandom anymore and I'm not sure how much else we have in common, but check my journal, see what you think.

[elfflame]

I will! I'm not really active in it, but I do love it. I'm behind in my reading. Haven't read Final Quest at all yet. I'm kind of scared to. Will go look!

[solarbird]

I am a few issues behind, but so far (through issue 15), to my mind, it is the best thing they've done in many years.

It takes some time to get started, though. But give it that time, because shit is going down.

[elfflame]

I follow WaRP on Twitter, so I've seen very small bits, so I can imagine. I bought the first collected set, but I keep putting it down, scared to start.

And I friended you. Fellow Seattlite counts for something, too. ;)

My sister just did the con, too. Do you know of the Skittles?

[solarbird]

Oh you're a Seattlite too. Okay. Hiya!

I... know several contexts for Skittles but I do not know that I know yours.

[elfflame]

The Skittles are my sister's costuming group. Each person has a color, and they all do their costumes based on a theme.

I haven't been to Norwescon myself in years. Miss parts, but not others. Not a big crowds person myself.

[solarbird]

Oh them! Yes I do know them - from the masquerade, at least, not personally or anything. But I'm 100% sure I know people who know them. ^_^

[elfflame]

That's my sister's group. She's the green one. :D (Can you tell I'm a very proud big sister? ;)

[solarbird]

Excellent. ^_^

[ex_mooseygirl256]

Howdy, Elf. I am Moosette. I am 32 years old and I am from Canada. :) We have Harry Potter, Star Wars, Star Trek, Supernatural (!!!!), Law and Order, Labyrinth (Rest in Peace Jareth), Lord of the Rings, Batman, The Sixth Sense, 6O's, 7O's, 8O's music, (The Beatles and Queen are my favourite bands, too). I write about my daily life, some fandom things, and my health problems. Friends? :)

[elfflame]

Hello, Moosette. :) Definitely friends. I will go follow you now. :D

[ex_mooseygirl256]

Hi, again. :) Awesome. Thank you for giving me a chance. I will follow you back. Nice to meet you. :)

[elfflame]

Nice to meet you, too.

So far the only people I really squee about SPN with are my co-workers, and even then, I have to be sure they've seen. The season's definitely climbing to that tune, and I am so scared where they are going with this...

[ex_mooseygirl256]

Aww. It is a shame.

[protostars]

All my elfquest are packed right now but they were one of my earliest comics!

[elfflame]

I resisted them for a long time (did the same thing with Star Wars and Harry Potter, too), but I fell into it when they published the first prose book, and then went back and bought all the collected books and even managed to get myself copies of all the issues. They were at issue 16 at the time, and I remember being so horrified at that cover...

[mr_picard]

Ooooh, did someone say Star Trek? And Shakespeare? And m/m romance? *ears twitch*

All this sounds so GOOD, and we definitely have stuff in common... would adding you be okay?

[elfflame]

You are quite welcome! :D I can always use more people to talk Trek with. Which is your favorite series?

[mr_picard]

Yay, thanks! I've added you back! (Sorry it took so long. Damn time zones.) My favorite Trek series is TNG. I'm really only into that one although I don't say no to some TOS and ENT either!

[tarienemrys]

We have few common Fandoms. SPN,Harry Potter, Merlin, LOTR and MCU. :) I hope we could be friends?

[elfflame]

Definitely. :D I've added you.

[tarienemrys]

\O/ YAY!

[colls]

Hi there!
We have several fandoms in common - Star Trek, Star Wars, SPN, Stargate, Firefly, etc - and we are both older than Star Wars. I think we should do the DW circle add thing, what do you think?

[elfflame]

Sounds good to me! :D

[theladyunicorn]

I know you over on IJ! Or I did. Been years. Anyway mind if I add you here?

[elfflame]

Please do! I did try to find people I knew, but my lists were so massive, I'm sure I missed a lot of people. :) You are very welcome.

[theladyunicorn]

Honestly I don't think I had you on my most recent IJ anyway.

[author_by_night]

Hi! I'm still a Harry Potter person! I'm starting to do a little more meta and Deathly Hallows-related drabbles. I'm into Buffy and HG as well. I also noticed you mention original writing and genealogy on one of your public entries - those are both huge interests.

... long winded version of saying "hey, I added you." :P If tl;dr tendencies are a red flag, I completely understand!

[elfflame]

Awesome! I'd love more genealogy people in my world. I just got a paid version of Ancestry (been using Family Search forever), and having a great time with it.

Added you back. :)

[badger79]

Love Star Trek (ENT,TNG,VOY), Harry Potter and Buffy would it be OK to add you?

[elfflame]

Awesome! I will go add you now. :)

[azurai]

Hullo! :) I'm new to DW -- well, I've had this account forever but never really used it at all, it's very bare -- so came here looking for friends and... here we are. I've added you (assuming I can operate this thing, haha); hope you don't mind.

I'm in my late 20s, UK, longtime oldschool HP nerd. Your more "rare" (?) pairings caught my eye (sirius/lucius is one of my own personal guilty pleasures, and I'm always there for a bit of Drarry). Hope to see you around! :)

[elfflame]

Hello! I look forward to chatting. I have some seriously rare parings, as well as some more of the common ones. Sirius/Lucius is wonderful. I like the contrast between them. But Harry/Draco will always be my OTP. I adore them.

[azrielle_jones]

Hi! I'm new to DW and definitely looking for slash fans and Harry Potter fans! I'm mainly shipping Harry/Draco for now as I'm working on a fic due soon- so I'm trying to stay focused lol ;)

I also like Supernatural, 80's music, Labrinth, Hunger Games and Moulin Rouge!

Add me if you'd like to be friends and I'll add you back!

[elfflame]

I can always use a few good friends. :) Adding now.
