brightknightie | 90s-channel-tv-exchange sign-ups have opened

90s_channel_tv_exchange sign-ups have opened earlier than expected. They close on Friday, February 10. Stories come due on Sunday, May 21. For myself, I still haven't decided whether to play, but am leaning toward not signing up and watching the pinch-hits instead. I will surely read widely in this fest and can help beta.

The instructions again say: "Requests are 3-10 fandoms with 1-10 character tags" while "Offers are 3-10 offers and 1-10 relationship field tags." This still confuses me; my brain is relentlessly literal with instructions. But I understand from you all now what it should actually say is: Requests and offers alike are 3-10 fandoms with 1-10 relationship-field tags; solo characters appear in the relationship-field tags with the prefix "Solo."

Core fandoms:

Highlander got 19 nominations. Of them, I could write Ceirdwyn, Darius, Joe, Randi, Rebecca, Richie, Tessa, Duncan/Tessa, Tessa & Michelle, and Duncan & Tessa & Richie.

Forever Knight clocked in with 21 nominations. Of them, I could write Schanke, Feliks, Janette, Reese, Stonetree, Nat, Nick, Urs, Nick/Urs, Nick & Natalie, Nick & Urs, Grace & Nat, Janette & Nat, Nick & Vachon & Tracy.

Some other fandoms I know you all love:

For Malinaldarose, Earth: Final Conflict is nominated (Da'an & Liam, Ha'gel & Ma'el, Liam & Original Liam, Siobhan & Liam & Sandoval, Boone & Da'an).

For Lightbird, Hey Arnold! is nominated (Gerald & Arnold or Helga/Arnold) and also the original Quantum Leap (Sam & Al, Sam/Al, Sam, Al).

For Malinaldarose and ArgentumLS, The Tomorrow People (1992) is in with all gen (Ami & Lisa & Jade, Bill & Hasana & Penny, Bill & Megabyte, Megabyte & Adam, Megabyte & Ami & Adam & Jade).

For several of you, SG-1 is in with 30 nominations!

A few miscellaneous canons that I checked:

I could write Angel: The Series gen. Looks like AtS would have to be my third offer, if I decide to play. (Unless I go with Pride and Prejudice, but as much as I love and reqatch the A&E '90s P&P, I don't see how fanfic of it differs from fanfic of Austen...?)

The Pokemon anime nominations do include Misty & Ash & Brock and Ash & Ash's Pikachu. But the rest are ships. Firmly Indigo League-era, appropriate to the '90s theme.

Doctor Quinn: Medicine Woman got nominated with solid canon ships! No gen or solo.

Darkwing Duck nominations include solo Goslyn.

All the Sailor Moon nominations are ships, and only one canon ship among them (maybe two if you stretch to count Luna/Artemis (the cats)). No gen or solo.

Dark Shadows (1991) got nominated! Wait, how can that have been 1991? Really? That was then? Well, that's a short canon to rewatch, technically, if one completely ignores its older sibling.

I really need to watch Babylon 5 one of these days. Maybe after Earth: Final Conflict. Also this 1990 Zorro that I somehow missed entirely (probably not aired in my area).

What are you thinking about this new fest? What will be fun for you?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

It is tempting, but I won't participate. Too many shows and movies I've never watched in English, so I wouldn't be able to write something halfway accurate, if it's not FK. Will read stories and comment instead.

We're lucky to have you and PJ in English-language FK-fandom with us!

Yes, this exchange's concept is delightful and I wish it all success, but I may just read and comment, myself.
