Oh god, that would be a horribly cliched story in the Buffy fandom, way back in the late 90's. I was obsessed with Xander/Cordelia (it was long before I discovered slash) and of course I had to produce a fix-it after they broke up so Charisma Carpenter could switch over to Angel. It doesn't exist anymore. And least I hope it doesn't. And if it does, it was posted under an entirely different pseud and there is no way it can be tied to me. At least I hope not!

(I still love Xander/Cordelia, though, and I always feel sad when they break up.)

I actually I don't think I ship any really obscure pairings. I do have a tendency to go for the less popular pairing in a fandom - my current faves in The Avengers fandom are Steve/Bucky and Clint/Coulson where most people are all about Steve/Tony or Clint/Natasha - but I never really go for the truly obscure. I guess I'm kind of vanilla that way.

No, not at all. I'm usually a bit of a fringe dweller when it comes to fandom, anyway, and most of the fandoms I've been heavily involved in have been smaller with fairly well behaved participants. Sports Night is a good example. I can not think of one major incident during its heyday, even though there was the potential for one amongst the Dan/Casey vs Dana/Casey shippers. And if I'm not into a fandom it's either because I'm not interested the source material or I just just don't feel particularly fanish about it. I love watching NCIS LA, and I have a big soft spot for Kensie/Deeks, but I have no interest in reading fic or seek out like-minded fen. It's simply not something I have any desire to do.

That would have to be the Llama Saga (http://archiveofourown.org/series/1689) from Sports Night. I just love those little guys!

Well, that would have to be due South. I took no notice of it when it was originally screened, had no idea about the Ray wars or anything, then one day I stumbled across a rec for a fic in a fandom I knew nothing about. It intrigued me so much I just had to read it and I was instantly hooked. I have never looked back. Ever. I don't think I can.
