Fandom Snowflake Challenge #5

[merricatb]

Today's Snowflake Challenge is to create a wishlist of three things you'd love to receive.

Asking for what I want is definitely a challenge...here goes: I'm pretty mono-fannish, in a small fandom for a show that came out ten years ago. I joined DW for much the same reason as I joined AO3, because I was looking for more content about Sense8 and wanted to connect with people who were still interested in it. So I guess the short answer for what I want is MORE. Creation, engagement, connection.

Come at me with theories or headcanons, fave characters or fave scenes. Rec some works you created or enjoyed, tell me about WIPs and I'll encourage you to continue them or help you brainstorm. If anyone really wants to go all out and create something for me, first off I love you. Second, my faves are Wolfgang/Kala/Rajan, Wolfgang & Felix, or the cluster doing cluster things. I have general likes and DNWs in my Dear Creator post for the recent holiday exchange, or you can view my works on Ao3 for ideas. I'd prefer having a discussion about transformative works ahead of time if that's more of your thing. You can DM me as well. I'm always up for chatting about Sense8 and I am happy to encourage anyone to create more fanworks.

I'd be down for some Sense8 chatting, if you want to add me, DM me, or just chat here! I love the show a lot, but honestly I find it a little hard to get ideas for fic about it... :/ But yeah, maybe chatting about it a bit would give me some inspiration/direction!

[merricatb]

Awesome! Whichever way you'd prefer. I personally started with some missing scene fics since I'm such a stickler for canon but challenges and different prompts help a lot. I'd be happy to help you inspiration depending what you're into. :)

Thank you! I've never considered doing a missing scene fic, but maybe I'll give it some thought. I enjoyed writing Nomi & Riley for the holiday exchange, so maybe I'll try to explore that a little more...but I might hit you up for some prompt ideas!

[merricatb]

That was YOU?!? OMG I didn't realize. I loved that fic! I even rec'd it over at thecluster. Are you part of smallfandomfest? It's still going on for a little long (until the 31st) and there are a bunch of Amanita/Nomi prompts. Anything that isn't filled does carry over until the next round as well.

[soricel]

Thank youuu :)))

And no, I'm not a part of smallfandomfest, but maybe I'll check it out! Thanks for the heads up!

[soricel]

And whoa, there are some great prompts on there! And a lot of them are yours! XD I wrote a little Wolfgang & Riley Eurovision thing this morning if you wanna check it out. :)

[merricatb]

I literally just left kudos and a comment OMG I loved it so much! I know nothing about Eurovision but the idea of Wolfgang and Riley watching it together was too cute to pass up so I was sincerely hoping someone would fill that prompt. Thank you <3

[soricel]

Yayy, I'm glad! I'm brainstorming ideas for a couple more of your prompts too, so stay tuned! :))
