Short, symmetrical, hair on top. Irish-descended bookgeek with a tendency to pontificate. I read some of The Original Slash 'Ship, Kirk/Spock, in fanzine form back in the 80s, but it wasn't until 2001 when I fell into Elijah Wood's eyes and never came out, that I became a real slash fan with Frodo/Sam (theirloveissocanon). Tolkien is my oldest and greatest love; I've read LotR more than 100 times. (Yep, that's one hundred.)
Torchwood and Doctor Who have eaten most of my remaining brain. Grew up on Four; Nine is My Doctor; loved Ten; Moffat and baby!Eleven might just create awesome. Jack Harkness is Sex on a Stick with Enormous Immortal ManPain, and I haven't loved a character so much in years. I've written a little Torchwood porn fanfic, which you'll find under my 'fic' tag. (I fangirl more on IJ, and fic/meta more on LJ.)
Used to love me some good snarky, IC Snarry, but Book 7 killed any lingering respect I might have had for JKR, and I'm not really in that fandom much anymore. Another OTP was snarky, fight'n'fuck Spuffy where Spike was really Spike, not that neutered thing Joss&Noxon made him into in Seasons 6 and 7. Curse you, Marti Noxon, and your Anvils of Anti-Metaphor.
I also adore raucous Irish folk-punk music, Terry Pratchett's Discworld, Good Omens, Mystery Science Theater 3000, Sam'n'Dean Winchester, really gory Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino movies, and truly witty sarcasm, which I can rarely actually come up with myself.
