anghraineWow, Day 15. Awesome. Now if I just managed to get my final assignments into my English class (or, ah, wrote them), everything would be lovely. On the upside, hele and I are going to have a spectacular writing day, and my artist's fanmix looks super cool.

Day 15: Who is your favourite asexual character/celebrity/person?
Hm. I don't think I'm familiar with any of the celebrities. I'm very fond of the Doctor, but it varies a lot from Doctor to Doctor. Sherlock Holmes is not really my favourite, honestly, because of the whole "he's strange and bizarre! see, he's not interested in sex! he's weird!" thing. Sir Isaac Newton, maybe.
Okay, it's not like he was out because duh, but it seems -- pretty strongly implied. And he was kind of awesome, especially since he met the usual male virgin-shaming (that has not significantly changed in the last few centuries) in the best possible way: by not giving a shit. If I remember correctly, his response to "lol virgin no wonder you sit around being boring" was ha, you only wish you could be awesome as I am. Have you come up with any new branches of mathematics lately? YEAH I DIDN'T THINK SO.
Sing it, sir.

Day 15: What do you feel it most important to warn for, and what's the strangest thing you've warned for in a fic?
Most important? Anything less than free and total consent, I think. And especially non-con. Fandom is not a bookstore.
My stories don't require many warnings. The strangest thing ... huh. Honestly, it's probably the story that was clearly labelled as Darcy/Mary and, because Austen fandom tends towards the aggressive when it comes to their OTPs -- by which I mean the holy OTP, Darcy/Elizabeth -- I also included the following warning, just so I didn't get murdered in my bed or something.

You can't be too careful.
