Name: Margareth
Age: 28
Main Fandoms: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Luther, Fringe, The Good Wife, Community, Parks and Recreation. I suspect Warehouse 13 will be a fandom once I get back to watching it, if the first six episodes were any indication. Buffyverse for ever and ever. Icons are totally a fandom.

Fannish Interests: I make icons a lot, and continuously failing to get back into writing. Trying my hand at vidding! I like having a variety of things in my circle though, be it meta, fics, episode reactions, or that awesome cake you baked last week. I also tend to post woefully outdated linkspams and recs(you just wait for my Yuletide recs to hit lol). Not overly pairings focused, but I do like it more when the relationship is messy/complicated(Luther/Alice, Patti/Ellen, Boomer/Chief and yes I'm ignoring season 4, Violet/Tate, Nikita/Owen)(ah but that is somewhat a LIE because Ann/Leslie is the friendship unicorn OF ALL TIME, and let's not get into Troy/Abed or *koff* Jeff/Dean Pelton), and things seem to get much more interesting when three people are involved(Audrey/Nathan/Duke, Kalinda/Alicia/Cary or Cary/Kalinda/Geneva, Nikita/Michael/Alex) - but still, it's all about the character dynamics and less about the getting in the pants. Have a rather sad tendency to fall in love with the tertiary characters. Ensembles=♥

Favourite Movies: Anything Quentin Tarantino, Chan-Wook park, Darren Aronofsky, David Lynch, and David Cronenberg. Pixar movies(except Cars). I used to love Kevin Smith. Black Swan, Drive, Terminator 2, Chronicles of Riddick series(yay new movie coming), Galaxy Quest, Long Kiss Goodnight, Heathers, Beetlejuice, Silence of the Lambs, Dogma, Where The Wild Things Are, Donnie Darko, Gia, Empire Records, Dazed and Confused, Leon, Marie Antoinette, Batman Begins(love a lot of them, but Catwoman eee) The Matrix, The Fifth Element, Unbreakable, V for Vendetta, Serenity, 28 Days Later, Hard Candy, 12 Monkeys, Alien(s), Girl Interrupted, American Beauty, Mysterious Skin, Stranger Than Fiction.

This probably tells you more about my inability to pick favorites than anything else. While growing up I intermittently wanted to be Winona Ryder, a mermaid, Catwoman, and Pepetko(Cinderella in a Russian Christmas movie). And then Sarah Connor and Samantha Caine/Charly Baltimore came into my life. If a movie has a competent/interesting female character in a vital role my odds of loving it increase exponentially(see: I own all the Resident Evil movies despite the very poor writing, because they are awesome when it comes to the ladies).

TV Shows: The Good Wife, Luther, Community, Fringe(pre-s4), Damages, Dexter(severely dropped in quality, but Debra Morgan!), The Borgias, Parks And Recreation, Nurse Jackie, Lost Girl, Southland, Mad Men, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, My Mad Fat Diary, Orphan Black, Haven, Warehouse 13(s1), Nikita, New Girl, Teen Wolf, Veep, Archer.

For ever and ever crying over the cancellation of Better off Ted, The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Legend of the Seeker, Firefly - and I suspect, once I've finished it - Prime Suspect.

Books: J.R.R. Tolkien. . About one third of Haruki Murakami's books. The first half of the Wheel of Time series. GoodReads.

Music: Ane Brun, Fever Ray, The National, Patti Smith, The Arcade Fire, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Adele, Florence+The Machine, Mumford and Sons, Neko Case, Radiohead, The Kills, Big Bang, Arctic Monkeys, Sigur Rós, Morrissey, Bob Dylan, Juliette & The Licks, Bad Religion, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Madrugada, Janelle Monae, Madonna, Anna Calvi, Green Day, etc.

Comics/Anime/Misc: Reading a lot more comics these days, with Saga and Mara being my top two picks, but also pulling Angel & Faith, Captain Marvel, and Batwoman. Casting furtive glances at Journey Into Mystery and Hawkeye, plus working my way through the Batgirl back-catalog. Recently finished Fallen Angel, which was a lot of fun towards the end. Love love love The Losers(Alisha al Fadhil omg), Runaways(we all know where to stop there, right?), the Sandman books, Calvin & Hobbes, Gotham Central, Black Widow: Name of the Rose.

Other Info: Prefer friends to be from the age of 20 and up. Ladies are awesome. I'm ever so tentatively starting to do stuff in the kitchen, so expect some cooking talk here and there. Also getting into yoga. Just recently bought an X-Box. There's been a lot of Skyrim lately, but I do have the new Call of Duty(maybe I can finally re-connect with my brother through that comm thing permanently attached to his face. mockery is totally a valid form of interaction). Honestly I'm hoping I fall in love with it so I can start using this gif:


(I have a lot of ridiculous icon and gif related motives *sheepish*)

I also own a wii, which is useful for overcoming just about any embarrassment squick ever. Looking like a silly bastard ftw \o/
