Hiiiiiiiiii!! Yayyy, so great to hear from you! I've been meaning to leave a comment on an old entry of yours or something, just to see how you were doing! (but I see you've updated now :D) I'm going to try to be on LJ more, but it'll probably be quite fannish. There's quite a lot of stability in my life right now, I guess. I keep starting to write super duper serious entries pondering various social issues, but they're such delicate subjects that I'm usually satisfied by getting my thoughts out, and I publish them as private. Hopefully I can get back into the habit of writing stuff that isn't monstrously long.
Agent of Shield looks like it should be so awesome!! I'm pretty terrible about motivating myself to watch TV, but I have very high hopes! It's such a cool idea and I think they'll have fun with it. Have you watched any of the animated Avengers show? I've only seen bits of it but it seems really cute. Although i think it got cancelled...
I've heard of Cabin Pressure, but I have't listened to it - although I've seen a bunch of fanworks for it and it seems pretty charming! I can't actually tell anymore what my mental image of Sherlock and Watson was from the books. Sherlock was kind of unknowable to me, I think? I've reread a bit since watching various adaptations but not enough to really get a grasp on things, I'll have to do that. I don't think I pictured him as being quite as harsh as Sherlock, I guess, although he certainly operates on his own rules of social interaction.
Awwwwwwwww, Hamburg Freezers, that is so cute! I don't know, I'm always so charmed by the names of European hockey teams? They seem slightly goofy in the same way that MLS team names seem a little off. Everything I know about European hockey I learned from players who went over there during the lockout, although aforementioned favorite player John Tavares was in Switzerland, with SC Bern.
I have not been able to find enough fic about Duncs and Seabs for my liking! And I also love the robot!Sid fics! I've seen people get defensive on Sid's behalf and it's true - after being exposed to a lot of fanon Sid, when I actually saw him in interviews I was like "wait, he is a lot more socially competent than fandom makes him seem" - although he is still somewhat awkward. But I like when people make him even more awkward in fic because... I relate to it so much!
