Talk about ships and feelings here! Ships. I usually say I don't do ships but then I actually have a few I'm sort of fond of: Quinntana and Save on Glee (hate the show, like some of the characters), JJ/Emily on Criminal Minds (gone off the show recently though), B'Elanna/Tom on Voyager, Camile/Sharon on Stargate Universe, but even then I will have and ofter do have my moments of "oh but this totally other pairing could be cool". :)
TV Show you never miss The Vampire Diaries. There's just like no pressure there, I'm not worried about it getting awful or getting the wrong characters together or thinking how it used to be better because its just a consistently enjoyable but not emotionally engaging show. And Damon is pretty. :D
Movie you watch over and over I haven't got one currently. I used to watch Tank Girl and Rocky Horror Picture Show and Star Treks 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8. (Star Trek is like comfort tv, I tend to watch it when I'm feeling ill or sad or lonely. Its like an old friend. Is that weird?)

Talk about ships and feelings here! I ship lots of things and have lots of feelings. I'm a chronic multishipper with tons of OTPs and I love threesomes/moresomes. I rarely dislike a ship, so you are safe shipping whatever you want around me! (I'm also really easily swayed into shipping things.) Current obsession is Tony Stark/Steve Rogers, just fyi.

Older Fan Favourites Buffyverse, The X-Files, and Babylon 5 (though I'm almost as active in these fandoms as I am in The Mentalist - because I never actually leave fandoms, I just collect new ones like a fannish version of Katamari Damacy)
Who would win the epic battle for favourite character? Don't make me choose! I can't even choose a single favourite character per fandom! But it would be a battle between Patrick Jane, Teresa Lisbon, Kimball Cho, Buffy Summers, Spike, Rupert Giles, Wesley Wyndam-Price, John Doggett, Monica Reyes, Londo Mollari, Delenn, John Sheridan, and many many others. Except now that I've written that list, I think Granny Weatherwax would probably do a dramatic last-minute entrance and claim victory.
Talk about ships and feelings here! Ships that I have known and loved: John/Delenn (only otp ever), Ivanova/Franklin, Marcus/Franklin, any combination of Doggett/Reyes/Scully, Doggett/Skinner, Jane/Cho, Jane/Hightower, Lisbon/Hightower, Van Pelt/Lisbon, Alan Grant/Billy Brennan, Spike/Buffy, Spike/Giles, Spike/Wes... in general, I'm not an OTPer and tend to prefer rare ships over popular pairings.
TV Show you never miss The Mentalist, obviously, and of current shows I'm also watching Fringe, Being Human, Futurama, The Misfits, Eureka, Nurse Jackie, Cougar Town... and probably some other shows as well that I just don't remember atm. Old favourites include The West Wing, Life on Mars and ER.
Movie you watch over and over 2001 - A Space Odyssey. I once watched it two times in a row, truefax. But in general, I tend to rewatch bad movie more often than good movies. Which is why I've seen Outbreak at least fifteen times...
a Great Book Terry Pratchett's Small Gods. Or Monstrous Regiment. Don't make me choose!

Cherryh's Foreigner series, Lackey's Heralds of Valdemar, Carol Berg's Lighthouse duology, Discworld, Tanya Huff's Valor series and Keeper trilogy, Kushner's Swordspoint and The Privilege of the Sword, Novik's Temeraire series, Steven Brust's Paarfiad and Taltos novels, Lord Peter Wimsey...

Who would win the epic battle for favourite character?
Goodness -- this would be impossible to determine on a cross-fandom basis! :D If you want to know my favourites in a particular fandom, please ask or check the "ships" question below.

Talk about ships and feelings here!
For just the fandoms I've been most active in in the last couple months, here are the people and pairings I love most:

White Collar: Peter/Elizabeth/Neal, Diana
X-Men First Class: Charles/Erik, Raven
Criminal Minds: Morgan/Reid, Prentiss, Garcia, JJ
Harry Potter: Harry/Severus, Lupin, Black, Hermione
BBC Sherlock: John/Sherlock, Lestrade, asexual!Sherlock
Homestuck: Dave/Tavros (flushed), Dave/Terezi (flushed, pale), Dave/Terezi/Karkat (flushed), Equius/Nepeta (pale) Karkat, Davesprite, Eridan
Star Trek Reboot: Kirk/Bones, Kirk/Spock, Spock/Nyota

TV Show you never miss
I really don't watch TV, outside of catching Criminal Minds whenever it's on.

Movie you watch over and over
Dragonheart and A Goofy Movie are both sentimental favourites. (Shuddap, I know!)

a Great Book
See the "inactive fandoms" mentioned above. (If you're interested in recs, please ask! I ♥ sci-fi and fantasy and a few mystery series, and am always full of recs.)

Other things people should know
Erm. I'm a feminist, I'm asexual, I have written a few fics in variou fandoms, I like to rec, I give awesome feedback, I have a number of narrative kinks that might throw you, I have few squicks (foodsex, pregnancy, humiliation), I would love a squeebuddy or three for Homestuck as it's my "new thing" (anyone out there share some of my character preferences and want to join me on the bandwagon?), I will love you forever if you give me feedback, I like snakes and often use them in my icons, I believe in trigger warnings, if you ask me to beta I will probably be glad to, I do just about every craft except knitting...

The real question is, what do you want to know?

People should friend me if...
They are fannish people looking for recs, meta, squee, discussion, silliness, a general leaning toward certain pairings but with some flexibility, and very occasional RL posts.

Famous Last words?
Insert meme here.

Name: Jen
Age: 30+
Location: East Cost USA

Recent Shows: Flashpoint, Castle, Royal Pains, Alcatraz, The Finder, NCIS, and I just discovered In Plain Sight on Hulu.com (first three seasons are available for Hulu Plus members). And I have a on / off relationship with Fringe...

Older Fan Favorites: Due South, Star Trek, Numb3rs, Firefly, The Sentinel and The X-Files.

TV Show you never miss: FLASHPOINT!

Movie you watch over and over: Star Trek movies 2, 3 and 4

a Great Book: So Long Been Dreaming: Postcolonial Science Fiction & Fantasy, Edited by Nalo Hopkinson and Uppinder Mehan (It's just awesome). Also I recently read Kathy Reichs's first book with Temperance Brennen and found that loved the book version more than the show, and I just read John Scalzi's "Old Man's War" and wondered why I waited so long to read it! Going to have to buy the next book in the series ASAP.

Other things people should know: I'm a liberal, asexual, hard of hearing science fiction geek. I'm not particularly fannish - preferring to stick to discussing my favorite shows and reading the occasional fic.

People should friend me if: We have shows in common! I got lazy about posting my thoughts about shows I was watching but I really like to talk to others about them. Also BOOKS - I love getting recs for new books I should check out.

Famous Last words?: 42!

Older Fan Favourites Sailor Moon
Who would win the epic battle for favourite character? Oh lord, Sherlock is just... I mean, with his cheekbones and his popped collar... *swoon* Merlin with his adorable dorkiness comes in at a close second. :D
Talk about ships and feelings here! I don't generally ship characters - the only ship I've really touted is Minako/Rei from Sailor Moon.
TV Show you never miss My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. :D
Movie you watch over and over Xanadu, simply because it's so ridiculous and 80s-tastic. And Monty Python and the Holy Grail, because it's awesome. :D
5 Favourite songs Rock It For Me by Caravan Palace, Raise Your Weapon by Deadmau5, Glory of Nelly by Caravan Palace, Everything She Wants by Wham!, Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO, and F*** You by Lily Allen
a Great Book Oh lord, there are SO MANY GREAT BOOKS, I can't pick just one! Right now I'm reading one by Anne Bishop - if you like dark fantasy, pick up any of hers - they're really good.

Other things people should know All my journal posts are access-only at the moment - please don't let that discourage you from adding me as a friend!
People should friend me if... ...you have any favorite music or TV shows in common. If you like entries that talk about all sorts of random stuff. If we have common interests. Stuff like that. :D
Famous Last words? "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"

Name Helen
Age mid-twenties
Location Sin City

Recent Fandoms Vorkosigan Saga, Sherlock BBC, Doctor Who
Older Fan Favourites XMFC, Avengers, American Idol (S7&8), Supernatural, Naruto, LotR, NCIS, SGA
Who would win the epic battle for favourite character? Um...at the moment, the epic battle itself is between Ivan Vorpatril and Gregor Vorbarra, Molly Hooper, and various other characters from minor book fandoms.
Talk about ships and feelings here! Lots and lots of ships, though usually not more than two or so per fandom. John/Sherlock, Gregor/Ivan, Gregor/Miles, Merlin/Cayleb/Sharleyan (David Weber's Safehold), Amy/Rory, Kradam, Tony/Steve ...
TV Show you never miss Um, well, since I can't remember the last time I actually watched a TV show while it was on TV... I think the last one was the last season of Idol, and before that it was Supernatural for the back end of the fifth season, first half of the sixth. I'm not good with keeping up with TV shows. Doctor Who, I suppose, since I watch the downloads.
Movie you watch over and over Lord of the Rings? Serenity? Honestly, now that I think about it, I don't really rewatch movies all that often.
5 Favourite songs Baba Yetu, a bunch of stuff from Two Steps from Hell, Kawa yo Watashi no Kawa yo by Origa, essentially anything by Hans Zimmer, I Will Love You by Fisher. This list is highly inaccurate, since my library play counts were reset not long ago.
a Great Book If you don't mind infodumps, pretty much anything by David Weber, particularly the Hell's Gate series with Linda Evans. Also Lord of the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia.

Other things people should know I am constantly browsing my reading page, but I post rarely and comment less so. Notorious for replying to something months after the fact, usually because I forgot that I meant to and then that I never actually had. I will talk about anything from random plot bunnies that I want to foist off on other people to how much my sister has pissed me off lately. (I have five brothers and sisters and a brother-in-law. "Discussing" them (and how they make my life difficult) is perhaps 75% of my journal content.) I'll also post poems and photography.
People should friend me if... ...you're okay with long bouts of silence followed by periods of frenetic and spastic posting when I remember that things beside tumblr exist.
Famous Last words? Late to the party...

(My random icon keeps telling me to pick the "friendz cut!" :S)
