Guardian fandom friending meme!!!

[china_shop]

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 sid_guardian on your journal or elsewhere. (Here's a graphic and text.)

And now, without further ado...

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.

About You
DW username: bonibaru
Languages: English
Offline location: US east coast
Other online locations: ao3, twitter, tumblr, all same name
I like: mostly slash but I will read a lot of different things

Guardian-specific stuff
Drama, novel or both? drama, but bits of novel here and there
Fannish about canon, actors, related shows, RPF or some combination of these? literally all of it
How long have you been in the fandom? since, hm, December?
Where can we find your fanworks, if any: AO3 (same name)

Posting habits
How long have you been on Dreamwidth? Where were you before that? since the beginning; was on Livejournal before that
What do you post about: I keep saying "everything" but really I post about fanfiction, reading, writing, vidding, interesting meta, I do a lot of signal boosting
Your other fandoms include: there are just too many; it's easier to list my non-fandoms really
Post frequency: every couple of days; I tweet more than I post here but I read here frequently
Access policy: come on in!

Anything else we should know about you? I'm often available to beta if anyone feels the need for someone to bounce with or just get some cheerleading or a real in depth look at something

Random Guardian
I haven't been this head over heels for a pairing in probably 10 years. I suck at talking about myself. :)

[riventhorn]

I might take you up on that beta offer so I can give poor asya_ana a break. :)

*adds*

[bonibaru]

Any time! If I'm at work it might require some delay but tbh I've been known to sneak off into a conference room to get betas done because I have my priorities completely straight!

[qikiqtarjuaq]

*waves* I've been the same way for Guardian! I haven't shipped anything this intensely in a very long time.

[bonibaru]

It feels so amazing even though it *hurts so much*

[no_detective]

head over heels is the PERFECT WAY to describe it. i'm so glad we're sharing a fandom again!!!! *twirls you*

[bonibaru]

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[jo_lasalle]

I haven't been this head over heels for a pairing in probably 10 years.

Literally ten years for me too! It's so great! *__*

[bonibaru]

it's been a long dry spell and I'm so glad it's over!

[naye]

literally all of it
♥♥♥

It's so beautiful who could resist?! And it's so much fun to flail about ALL OF IT with you!

[bonibaru]

The most recent fandom I was in really didn't have a home outside of tumblr which isn't my jam and I felt so alone even in the middle of it all, but I feel like I HAVE COME HOME. There are people here and they talk and stuff. I MISSED IT

[asya_ana]

*hugs*

I haven't been this head over heels for a pairing in probably 10 years.
Ok, it's 3 in my case but it feels like it might as well be 10. I've heard so many people say a variation on this. This ship came out of nowhere and just slayed us all. I can't remember how you fell -- was it rheasilvia's lethal post?

[bonibaru]

indeed it was.

[asya_ana]

So fell we all. She has a lot to answer for.

[bonibaru]

It's not the first time and I doubt it will be the last time that she does this to me lol

[rheasilvia]

I'm often available to beta

Oooh, I did not know that. You will be hearing from me! (Not a threat. Just, you know. A hopeful squee. *g*)

[tinny]

I am old, too.

Also, signalboosting is something my journal sorely lacks. (Not that I mean you should signalboost my posts, but I mean that I don't signal boost anything I read, myself, when I probably should. So maybe it'll rub off on me? :D)

I haven't been this head over heels for a pairing in probably 10 years. I suck at talking about myself. :)

I have, I think, but nobody shared it with me. That is the main difference. :D

I'll just friend you right now before I talk myself into another hole. /o\

[yantantether]

I've just realised that a while ago I accidentally only granted you access and didn't subscribe to you, whoops! Subscribed now because I definitely want you on my reading page :D

[green]

*waves so hard I almost sprain my arm*

Hiiiiiii! I'm thrilled to be sharing a fandom with you again.

[bonibaru]

yessssssssss

[clevermanka]

I....thought I added you a while ago? Sheesh, how embarrassing. I think hits from me account for probably half of the views on your Augustine vid. <3

[tassosss]

Hi! I started following you on twitter and I deeply appreciate all the "everyhing" you post! :)

[bonibaru]

Hi! :D Thank you!!!
