Hello everyone! I'm Emily, and I'm the similarly minded person that Bee mentioned back in her thread-- I BLAME IT ALL ON HER and nothing she can say will convince me otherwise (there's a reason we call her patient zero)! She dragged me into this a few weeks before the movie had even come out (when all this ship had were pictures and a few fics)... and before I knew it, I was a goner.

I think what drew me to Clint and Natasha (and shipping them) is how they are equals, in pretty much every way, and how their relationship on screen was beautifully subtle, but it was clear that the emotions ran deep and that there was a lot of history between them that we didn't know yet. I loved all the missing pieces and being able to come up with little explanations and head!canons to put them all together. Plus, all of those little blind spots and lines (Budapest, different choice) made for some really great fic, and really great fic = happy kl_shipper!

As far as my own contributions to fandom go, they're currently limited to icons and graphics (located at my journal), but *fingers crossed* I hope to start writing these two in the near future! But when my muse is not cooperating with me (because she's a fickle creature whom I have to bribe with cookies to come out and play), you can always count on me to bring on a nice healthy dose of squee and/or pretty!

Likes: BSG (as you may be able to tell from the name, I'm also a Kara/Lee shipper), Castle, Supernatural, Harry Potter, Pride & Prejudice, THIS BAR, THIS BAR, THIS BAR. Outside of fandom: music, travel, languages, food.

Dislikes: Everybody's entitled to their own opinion, but please don't harsh my squee. Why can't everybody get along?

(So, if you followed all of this and still want to be my friend, go ahead and I'll friend you right back! Most of my journal is fannish, with the occasional little personal meme that I keep f-locked. I look forward to meeting/getting to know all of you!)
