Question For My Lovelies...

[daxcat79.livejournal.com]

So I noticed the other day that another community did awards, like fanfic awards, and best art awards, and stuff like that. It seemed like a great way to celebrate some of the amazing stuff that's posted on this community. I was just curious if there's something similar here, and if not, was it something people would be interested in?

EDIT: Maybe we could do like an epic bookmark thing instead? Everyone goes through favorite fics till we have like the biggest rec list ever from every category, including art. Then it's not a competition?

I guess I thought only a few categories would be simpler, but that actually sounds really fun. What would we name the best kidfic category?

gnaaah, suddenly I really want these awards xD I always love scrolling and reading all the fics people nominate *_*

There is a difference, too, between 'de-aged' and 'Nat and Clint have kidlets', even though they are under the same tag.

[hufflepuffsneak.livejournal.com]

Mmmmmm true, they could conceivably be in the same category though.

[ashen_key]

But they are wildly different things, written for wildly different purposes (I write both). They aren't the same category at all. So, tags-based is a good idea, but it doesn't cover things. Same with canon!AUs of 'what if' and 'the one where they are running around on Mars' - both AUs, but both very different in concept and story-intent.

Exactly.

I'd vote for "Mikey" to be included in any kidfic category name, as I have an obsession with Life cereals and commercials from the 80s. :)

I don't know what that means, so I'm just going to smile and wave. :P

It looks like we won't be doing awards, so maybe when you're hosting a Friday? I would love a Virginia "Pepper" Potts Snarky Banter themed Friday post.

ahahaahaha, I'd be too worried about offending people on the community with my sense of humor to host a Friday, sorry.

[hufflepuffsneak.livejournal.com]

We have to finagle someone into it then. Maybe with a Maria Hill add-on.

All the Banter Friday would be awesome, but I would seriously need a co-host because no way, not posting here alone unless it's to say I've got a story up. And even then, I'm liking that there's an "Author chooses not to use warnings" tag.

[hufflepuffsneak.livejournal.com]

??? You're nervous about posting here? Huh, curating a long Friday would be tiring.

[frea-o.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm comfortable sticking to comments about generic topics and that's about it. :)
