Highlander Friending Meme

[ithildin]

Instead of the regularly scheduled mostly weekly Highlander episode discussion, I'm going to do something else Highlander related. In talking with Pat this morning, I realized I'd never participated/seen a Highlander friending meme. Obviously, there was only one option!

Below the cut, you'll find the nicely formatted questions in a table, so all you have to do is copy and paste it into the comments and supply your answers. You only need to reply to the questions you want to. Hopefully, we'll all meet some new people, or get to know people we've seen around in other people's comments a little better.

Please do spread the link for the meme around if you'd be so kind. The more, the merrier! We may be a small old classic fandom, but we can run with the biggest of the them!

Hey, woman, who are you calling old? *g*


Name/Username:
pat_t

Where are you?:
In my bedroom *g*. Ohhhh - I'm in Mississippi

Where would you like to be?:
In Methos' bedroom. Preferably in bed. With Methos (Duncan is welcome too)

Highlander Stuff
Huh?

How long have you been a fan?:
Since the show first ran in 1992. Became obsessed a huge fan in 2000 when I was sick at home for 2 months and fell in love with it all over again during Sci Fi reruns.

Three eps you'd show to a new viewer?:
Now that is tough. Because you can't really introduce the Methos (such as CAH Methos) if they don't know who Adam is. So, definitely Methos. And The Gathering because it is so important in explaining the universe and meeting Duncan, Tessa and Richie. And thirdly, gosh that's really hard. Maybe The Watchers so you could meet Joe.

Ever been to a HL con or event?:
A few. I went to Sydney in 2005 and The Walkabout in 2004. I went to Leeds in 2006 as well as the Scotland tour. I went to Vancouver in 2007. I've also attended all the PWFC events except the first one in Reno.

Favourite pairings?:
Duncan/Methos

Favourite characters?:
Duncan, Methos, Joe, Tessa, Amanda, Fitz, Darius, James Horton because he was an awesome bad guy. And Connor.

Favourite episodes?:
Too many to list. It would be a shorter list for the ones that disappointed me. But even those had something I liked in them, even if it was just that Duncan looked great - like "The Zone."

Favourite quickening?:
Comes A Horsemen

Favourite flashback?:
CAH and Rev, of course. I also liked the flashback when Duncan met Fitz and the one where he met Kyra because it was funny and sexy.

Three eps you'd show to a new viewer?: The Gathering, Methos, and The Stone of Scone.
Ever been to a HL con or event?: Nope
Favourite pairings?: Tessa/Duncan.

Being Creative
(Highlander or Other Fandom)

Name/Username: Ith
Where are you?: Somewhere you'll never find me (unless you're in California)!
Where would you like to be?: Scotland

Highlander Stuff
How long have you been a fan?: Since first season.

Favourite episodes?: All the Methos ones [g]
Favourite quickening?: Methos' in Indiscretions.
Favourite flashback?: The ones in the Horseman eps.

Being Creative
Read/write fic or make vids?: Write mostly, read some. I'm fascinated with the reality of immortality and what it takes to sustain real relationships with other immortals, so a great deal of my fic deals with those questions in some form or another. Most of what I write, even the crossovers are Methos-centric. A new foray for me is writhing in the Queen of Swords universe, which has been a real joy. Other than Highlander, I write in the Forever Knight universe.
Rec a fic/vid you love: A Kindness of Ravens by dejla
Rec a fic/vid of your own: Let Not Your Heart Be Tribbled (http://ithidrial.livejournal.com/58303.html) which is short and one of my rare humour pieces. Imagine Duncan and a Tribble [g]

Some of your favourite characters and/or pairings?: Greg House, Methos, LaCroix, Janette (FK), Angel, Buffy, Jack Sparrow, Dan Clifford, Luis Montoya, Robert Helm, Han Solo, Indiana Jones, Addison Montgomery.
Anything else fannish you want to add?: I dabble in many fandoms, but few do I get to the 'I want to write fic' point. I'm not much of a shipper, as you can see by my lack of pairing listings. And if I listed all the characters and shows I like, we'd be here for a while! So feel free to ask! I rarely bite.
