[livejournal.com profile] sulwen made an Adam meme to go with the bandom meme I did the other day. Here it is:

I... cannot believe that I talked for over 45 minutes. Especially given that I pretty ruthlessly self-edited while I was doing it, and left out at least a third of the things I intended to say when I first read the questions. Also, I somehow left out Glee from my list of fandoms. I've written Glee fic. And Glee RPS fic. and I read quite a LOT of both. and I spend many hours a week talking about glee with other fangirl(s). So Glee fandom is definitely a go for me. and yet I completely forgot to mention it. idek. also, also, I said I coded for Crack Impala. I never did. I coded for Crack Enterprise, which makes much more sense, given I was talking about Trek fandom when I talked about coding. So that is what you need to know. this is really REALLY long. and I left stuff out. (also, I might tear up a little bit, whatever.)


1. What's your username and is there a story behind it?
2. Where are you from and where do you live now?
3. Besides Adam, who are some of your favorite musical artists?
4. Have you been in any other fandoms besides Adam? Which ones?
5. How long have you been an Adam fan, and how did you first hear about him?
6. Have you seen Adam in concert? Any particular favorite concert experiences?
7. What's your favorite song off of For Your Entertainment and why?
8. Are you a fan of any of Adam's many talented friends and colleagues ? If so, who?
9. What are your favorite genres of fanfic? (angst, fluff, porn, crack, AU, etc...)
10. Do you have an OTP? What is it, and why do you love it?
11. What story and/or pairing do you wish someone would write?
12. What fanfic would you recommend to everyone? Tell us about your favorite stories!
13. Tell us about what you're hoping to see during the Trespassing album cycle.
14. And of course, the eternal debate: how do you like Adam's hair best? Up? Down? Shaved sides? Tinted tips? FACIAL HAIR? Feel free to link a picture in your post!

I COULD LISTEN TO YOU TALK ABOUT ADAM FOREVER! (Though I had to pause when you were talking about us and the snowpocalypse and London because OMG *heartclench* it made me cry!)

I am remembering that day on Twitter and how I COULD NOT believe it when you said you'd come to the UK concerts with us. And meeting you at the airport, and the roadtrip and seriously, HOW WAS THAT A WHOLE YEAR AGO ALREADY?

I MISS YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW!!!

I AM NEVER LETTING YOU GO, JSYK! *clings to you like Tommy to Adam*

I can totally come out to CA. I must! We should talk about dates. What the hell is a credit card FOR if not to pay for fangirl trips?!?

I could honestly listen to you talk forever, and ramble on, and that was awesome and oh I miss you so much right now and I don't care that I only spent about 36 hours with you, LESS, the whole craziness of that weekend and the train journey concentrated everything so I am totally allowed to miss you.

You are TOTALLY allowed to miss me! because I totally miss you. Serious bonding happened and it was amazing. What an incredible weekend.

Awesome, now I feel validated. And miss you even more! (I am usually so tonguetied with new people, I think I'm almost GLAD that I was so addlepated from that wretched train journey because it meant that I could just babble at you.)

I didn't know you lived in England--but when I first heard you speak, I thought, huh, where's that accent from?

I grew up here in the Bay Area as well. Local pervs unite!

I have kind of a strange accent, it's true. though it also depends on who I have been speaking to. I think I snuck a little [livejournal.com profile] isweedan in there a couple times because I'd been listening to her voice post :D

yay, Bay Area!

I listened to this whole damn thing. I loved the story about your rant after the AMAs, all of your descriptions of your GNT shows, and your OTP explanation. This was fun! Thanks for posting it.
 
posted by [identity profile] rivers-bend.livejournal.com at 07:09am on 27/11/2011
I am still kind of amazed that people listened to the whole thing, but I'm so glad it was fun :D You are most welcome! I enjoyed doing it.

Also, it is entirely your fault that I'm currently rereading Drive-By Devotion for the nth time.

hahaha I just recorded an extra story about that fic that I'd left out of the recording above to save time.

I have read that story minimum 300 times. I am amazed that I don't actually have it memorized word for word :D

Awesome awesome voice meme, and yes I did get to the end of it :D

I wish I had known you better last year, when I too was at all four UK shows. I was aware of your work then, thanks to Sasha and the "girl on girl tweet", but I didn't know your twitter alter ego until much later. That was the first fic I read EVER (at the grand old age of 41) and I still have a huge love for it. I'd read bits of porn before and found it so un-sexy I just decided it wasn't for me, I had no idea (seriously: I was THAT ignorant) that things of this quality existed.

As you know, I adore all your writing; I have read stuff you have written in fandoms I have not even seen the show for. I am SO EXCITED for your HS AU LBB. My favourite pairing in Adam fandom (by far) with favourite genres (HS AU and first times are my go-to. That and coming in pants, and you often combine the three and you do it so well!). Unlike you, I do love angsty ones too, but your tales make me feel so good, so uplifted and so hopefully for the future of the univers. Your fic: = happpy pills.

I have re-read Tommy Joe and his flu more times than I can count (not more times than you have read Drive-by Devotion though: THAT is serious obsession, woman!). Your flu fic moves me as well as makes me happy, and I too dislike facial hair so the need to shave Tommy's scruff off was burning within me too at the time you wrote it.

Thank you again for all the entertainment and for MMOM ;D

Wasn't that four days insane? extreme concert-going. But maybe the best four days of my life :D

I still sometimes want to curl up and die of shame that sasha found my fic and tweeted it, but I am so glad it led you to the amazing and wonderful world of fan fiction! I was a pretty late comer myself (32) to fanfic, but now I wouldn't be without it!

And what an amazing set of compliments! You always make me feel happy about my writing, but this comment had me blushing and grinning and doing happy wiggles :D I read and write fic because it makes my world a happier place, and knowing that my writing does that for someone else is pretty much the best feeling in the universe <333

lol if you like coming in pants, there is one scene in my lbb in particular that I think you will love.

I have to admit that a big part of the reason I have read drive-by so many times is it was literally the ONLY adam/tommy fic I'd found for almost four months. so if I wanted Adam/Tommy (which I DID) then that was my option.

My Tommy flu fic is so self-indulgent that I'm extra happy that it gives someone else all the good feelings it gives me. Thank you, THANK YOU. <333

You're so very welcome! And I am even more excited about your LBB now :D Also apologies for the appalling typos. When I was at school you were allowed to do Geography (my favourite and my best) OR Typing (with the scary trendy girls with Big Hair and miniscule ra-ra skirts for weekends), so you can guess where I went. Also, we had four computers between all 750 of us, so, yeah, my typing skills are BAD.

You are, INDEED, a one-woman press-gang. :D YAY.
