Guardian fandom friending meme!!!

Our lovely fandom continues to grow beyond our wildest expectations! Comm membership has just hit 100 98 (and we got impatient)! *shameless champagne and ballooooons*

A few small notes and reminders:

  1. The Welcome/Intro post and the Fannish Resources post are still alive and kicking. Feel free to drop in at any time and say hi, or give us all your resource links (even the ones that might seem really obvious)!

  2. Lurking is also totally fine, of course! *waves to lurkers*

  3. Please tag your posts to the comm so other users can easily find what they’re looking for. In particular, it would be great if you could use the canon: drama and/or canon: novel tags, since it’s not always obvious to us mods which should apply, including for fanart or vids that use drama visuals but draw on novel elements. This is our current list of tags, and we’ll add more type tags as the need arises.

  4. You can find the full (updated) comm rules on the profile page.

  5. Feel free to promote [community profile] sid_guardian on your journal or elsewhere. (Here's a graphic and text.)


And now, without further ado...

The SID team smiling at each other, with a banner reading "Guardian Friending Meme".


Since some of us are new to Dreamwidth, and some of us are new to Guardian, it seems like a good time for a Dreamwidth friending meme. Come and meet new people! (Re)Populate your DW circle!

To participate, just copy the text below, paste it into a new comment and tell us about yourself. (All information is optional.) Then read through other people's comments and say hi / follow them as desired.



Post a link to this friending meme




(Many thanks to [personal profile] teaotter for prettifying the banner pic! <3)

About You
DW username: N/A, but I'm on Livejournal as dainao (haven't updated in years don't @ me)
Languages: mostly English, but also remnants of Hoisanese/Taishanese and American Sign Language
Offline location: New York
Other online locations: juniper (june) on AO3, message me for my Tumblr
I like: All of the above! But I read a lot of slash and gen, I think?

Guardian-specific stuff
Drama, novel or both? Drama! Although I've started to read the novel.
Fannish about canon, actors, related shows, RPF or some combination of these? Umm, canon? I don't know much about the actors or related shows.
How long have you been in the fandom? Not long--maybe a few months?
Where can we find your fanworks, if any: I don't produce any fanworks, sorry!
Other points of interest regarding your Guardian fannishness: I haven't written or made anything but I love cheering on those who do (and yelling on Tumblr about the show :)

Posting habits
How long have you been on Dreamwidth? Where were you before that? I've never really gotten into Dreamwidth! I used to use LJ a bit, but I'm mostly on Tumblr.
What do you post about: On Tumblr? Everything! Mostly I reblog stuff from other folks (everything from recipes to fangirling to dumb memes to social justice) but occasionally I'll post about my life.
Your other fandoms include: Right now I'm pretty into Guardian tbh. And I think I fixate on ships more than fandoms themselves? That said I used to follow a lot of big-name pairings from fandoms like the MCU, DC comics / DCAU, Merlin, Supernatural, Harry Potter, other shows, random animes, etc.
Post frequency: Here? Zero. Tumblr? Something like 10-14 posts (reblogs) per day (sometimes more).
Access policy: I'm selective on LJ but pretty liberal on Tumblr.

Anything else we should know about you? Like I mentioned above, I'm never on LJ and almost never on Dreamwidth (except for this comm). If anyone wants to get in touch with me for some reason they should message me on AO3 (do people do that? idk) or ideally seek me out on Tumblr.

Sometimes I'm very quiet and sometimes I use a lot of exclamation points and write long rambling comments about the things I love--it's a tossup. That said, please don't feel bad if I'm on the former side sometimes. I love you all I promise <3

(Oh and feel free to hmu if you're ever in the NYC area! I could always use more fannish friends irl :)

Random Guardian
Oh gosh idk. Is it heresy to say that although I like the implications of Zhao Yunlan's new bride haircut I much prefer his early season hair? I just think it looks cuter :3
