yeah, it's that fandom meme.

The one who seduced you and screwed you over and broke your heart in a million pieces and laughed about it.
Merlin. Goddammit.


The old flame you don't see very often any more but whom you still really enjoy getting together with for a few drinks and maybe a pleasant nostalgic romp in the sheets.
Harry Potter.


The mysterious dark one whom you used to sit up with talking until 3a.m. at weird coffeehouses and with whom you were quite smitten until you realized he really was fucking crazy.
The X-Files. I was so young then.


The one you spent a whole weekend in bed with and who drank up all your liquor, and whom you'd still really like to get with again although you're relieved she doesn't actually live in town.
Stargate Atlantis. I had quite the AU hangover. 


The steady.
Doctor Who. You know I love you, baby.


The alluring stranger whom you've flirted with at parties but have never gotten really serious with.
Community. Cool. Cool cool cool. 


The one you hang out with and have vague fantasies about maybe having a thing with but ultimately you're just good buddies 'cause the friendship is there but the chemistry ain't.
Vampire Diaries. I just need a little space right now. It's not you, it's Damon. 


The one your friends keep introducing you to and who seems like a hell of a cool guy except it's never really gone anywhere.
X-Men: First Class. Though I am a little in love with Charles.


The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at them and thinking, "how the hell did they land all these cool people?"
Torchwood. Sometimes I feel so alone. 


The one who gave you the best damned summer of your life and who you measure all other potential partners against.
Star Trek 09. Oh, those summer nights.


The one you recently met at a party and would like to get to know better and who you think you might have a crush on.
White Collar. Boys are pretty.


The old flame that you wouldn't totally object to hooking up with again for a one night romp if only he cleaned himself up a bit.
The West Wing. Put on a fresh shirt, Josh. Jesus.


Your hot new flame.
Sherlock. But he knows that everything else is transport.


The one who stole your boyfriend.
Inception. Tramp.

Alas. I can understand that. I guess, I went into the show with 0 expectations so I got a lot out of it. I look at the show itself like, say, Hercules the Legendary Journeys level sort of stuff. So, while fantastically entertaining it has almost nothing to do with its related fanworks.

Your fic - oh god, I remember that! That was you! OF COURSE THAT WAS YOU, who else would it be?

I have approximately seventeen thousand ideas for fic on a weekly basis. (This is a trufax scientific number I have arrived at utilizing maths.) But it's true, the show's willful abandonment of preestablished development and foreshadowing really puts a damper on canon-based inspiration. I have had a crash course in how to ignore canon wholesale with this fandom like I've never had anywhere else, even more than in Doctor Who where time doesn't matter and everything literally happened in an alternate universe.
