Link to other places where to find you: I'm most active fannishly on tumblr (at hawkland and on AO3 (as sidewinder.)
What do you enjoy most about the show: Gosh, where to begin? I really didn't expect to get into this show as I'm not usually a horror fan, but everything about it is so well done. The acting, the cinematography, the story arcs, and of course Marcus and Tomas and their intriguing relationship. And while I'm not big on horror I do tend to like shows that deal with issues of Hell, Heaven, the afterlife, and morality/ethics on a grand scale like that.
Ships/genres: Hmmm, I'd say in theory I am all about Tomarcus, I love the sexual tension and chemistry between them. Though for now I sort of enjoy it best in sort of an unresolved sexual tension way--I think Marcus would be hesitant at this point to want to begin a sexual relationship with Tomas if it could compromise them to the demons (but that's a whole long theory I have I should probably put into a fic at some point.) Otherwise I think Marcus/Peter is really sweet and I would just love to see them have at least some happy time together.
Favorite characters: Definitely Marcus! Ben Daniels is just amazing (and so damn sexy.)
Are you an artist/vidder/writer/giffer: A little bit of all of them, depending, though writing is my primary fan activity.
Is there something you'd like to see on this comm: I'd love to see some fic challenges or prompts!
Other fandoms you enjoy: If you follow me on Tumblr you'll see I'm big into all iterations of Law & Order (especially early years SVU; my OTP is Munch/Fin), Homicide: Life on the Street, Lucifer, Dead Like Me, Brimstone, and a few other small/rare fandoms.
Whatever comes to mind: Feel free to follow me and chat over on Tumblr! Or here, although I mainly use my DW account for exchange letters and some personal stuff (under lock).

Date: 2017-11-28 10:09 am (UTC)Link to other places where to find you: tumblr,ao3, ff.net and LJ - I'm also Starrylizard. (I'm starrylizards on Twitter, I think)
What do you enjoy most about the show: The dynamic between Marcus and Tomas, the fact that the writing is awesome and the cast is so diverse (and not chisel-jawed American heroes), the horror element is really well handled and creepy in that it isn't in your face immediately, but builds. It's just great!
Ships/genres: I'm pretty much gen most of the time, but I'm happy to read (and write when the spirit takes me) het or slash or whatever when written/made/vidded well. I don't tend to be a shipper with an OTP, so I support all of you in whatever ship you happen to have.
Favorite characters: Marcus. So very Marcus. And then everyone else.
Are you an artist/vidder/writer/giffer: I write and I am trying to get back into vidding as I used to love it (my old computer with the programs on it died)
Is there something you'd like to see on this comm: I love prompts and discussions and shareable graphics. I also love a community of people who can help each other. e.g. I know very little about religion or prayers etc. Would love it if people could share research on such things. :)
Other fandoms you enjoy: I've been in Supernatural and Stargate Atlantis as "fandoms". I love so many shows though.
Whatever comes to mind: Just hello. I hope we can get to know each other and make fandom all proper sentences and meta and discussion and sharing again.

What do you enjoy most about the show: The heart of it, the tension, and Marcus as a sublime warrior is just fabulous
Ships/genres: I do like Tomarcus, but Peter is sweet and has dealt with his own damage so I think he would help Marcus in so many ways and allow him to heal
Favorite characters: Marcus. I love the angst and I'm a long term Ben Daniels fan
Are you an artist/vidder/writer/giffer: I wrote a lot in the past, but now I am a giffer mostly
Is there something you'd like to see on this comm: Nothing in particular
Other fandoms you enjoy:Doctor Who, Supernatural, the DC verse shows
Whatever comes to mind: Thank you for the comm!

Tumblr
AO3 (I have two Exorcist fics :D)
What do you enjoy most about the show: Well, what first lured me in was the horror (I had been meaning to watch it and I didn't, but then accidentally watched the scene with Casey in the subway and was immediately hooked). After I started watching it, I just loved the characters, and how well done the story is. I also love the diversity, and how they deal with religion.
Ships/genres: Tomarcus, first and foremost (though I don't think they will go there), also Marcus/Peter, Marcus/Bennet a bit, and Bennet/love and peace and quiet.
Favorite characters: Marcus and Tomas, Bennet, Kat and Verity (basically everyone, really)
Are you an artist/vidder/writer/giffer: Occasional writer, giffer
Is there something you'd like to see on this comm: Prompts, discussions
Other fandoms you enjoy: Well, there are really too many to tell, but that I can think of now, Harry Potter, Hannibal, BBC Sherlock, Star Trek (TOS, the new movies and Discovery, and I'm working on watching everything else), Stranger Things, MCU.
Whatever comes to mind: Hello from Brazil, and thanks for having this community to fangirl about this show!

What do you enjoy most about the show: Both the gay and the horror. I'm a gay horror nerd. I also like the way they let the possessions develop, and the suspense.
Ships/genres: Tomas/Marcus and I haven't read fic yet because I am interested in comparing my own characterisation vs that of the other stories (rather than be influenced by other people's portrayals from the get go). It's definitely going to filthy smut first though, just to get that out of my system and because it's one of my favourite ways to get to know new characters!
Favorite characters: Tomas, he's just so!! so !!!!!!! man yeah no I love him he's so stubborn and he tries so hard and I love him for it
Are you an artist/vidder/writer/giffer: This may come as a bit of a shock... but I write.
Is there something you'd like to see on this comm: Umm I have seen Nothing yet so maybe I'll get back to you later?
Other fandoms you enjoy: A Lot... Currently I'm pretty invested in South Park, which is the only other fandom I'm actively writing for. My AO3 contains a comprehensive overview of past fandoms (and the degree of my investment) from about 2012 on though (before that there were some others but eh).
Whatever comes to mind: Bless you for starting a dreamwidth I have missed this kind of fandom community and I really hope it's going to be a little like the days of yonder (I just miss LJ a lot OK)
