Shipping Meme Day Twenty-Eight
A couple you shipped not nearly as long as you thought you would:
Hmm. I very rarely stop shipping a pairing, to be honest. I tend to go crazy for a shiny new fandom, and the last shiny new fandom will begin to go by the wayside, but just because I stop actively looking for fic doesn't mean I don't still get excited if I stumble across a new one that looks like my cup of tea.
So, I guess I'm going a little outside the box for this one. Les Miserables is basically my favorite thing in the world, right? It's my favorite book and I re-read it every few years, it's my favorite musical, it's not my favorite movie mainly because my expectations are so damn high, but you get the picture. So, when I was discovering fanfic for the first time, I also discovered this fabulous site and had a lot of fun. There are ships of every flavor (also Grantaire/Enjolras is basically canon, you guys) and lots of great fic. My point is, I love Les Miz a lot, but I did forget about fic for it somewhere along the way. I wrote a couple one-shots when I was first starting out, but given how very much I love it, I'm sort of surprised that I wasn't more active than I was, looking back.
