Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

and then Sail provided baldly heretical links to ZenKitty.

Which I read heretically and enjoyed in the same way.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Belatedly, it occurs to me to ask, what pushes a fandom towards cute ship names instead of pairing smooshes? (Brought to you by an attempt to parse "Frostiron.")

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What fandom is that?

Avengers. I assume it's Loki/Tony.

Stark and Emma Frost apparently had a thing in the comics at one point (or at least were retconned as having had one), so it could be that too.

I admit that I love "Stark Spangled Banner". Both the cutesy name and the 'ship. I don't buy it, really, but it's fun.

Yep. I have friends who write it.

Personally, I don't get cutesy pairing names OR horrible portmanteaus, but I'm willing to accept that I may be the cranky one on this.

Oh, no, that's always a given. Except for the funny ones.

I think someone on the Internet hates me. In the past two weeks I've gotten four spam messages on temporarily abandoned stories.

This is extra frustrating because when I hit the link, I'm worried it'll be someone berating me for the lack of updates, and wind up extra disappointed that its actually just junk mail.
