QAF Fandom InsaneJournal News -- 10/11/08  
Hi everyone! I had some computer problems earlier today, so I'm sorry that this is being posted in the middle of the night... but I wanted to get this out before a special fandom event on Sunday evening! Look inside for more...





The full series marathon at [info]qaf_marathons is still on hold until [info]not_yet_defined finishes moving. Lucky us, we get to delay watching 220. Sob.

The beautiful banner above is by [info]maybe742, from her brand new graphics asylum, [info]qaf_art_dept! Be sure to watch it, or, if you're following from LiveJournal, you can add the feed to your LJ friends page here.

In the meantime, we at InsaneJournal noticed that our fandom was somewhat preoccupied with the current battle raging between good and evil, otherwise known as the United States presidential election. So instead of fighting it, we've decided to embrace it!

It all started with the startling discovery, documented by [info]happier_bunny and me in picspam form, that Justin Taylor and Barack Obama are twins separated at birth.

Then came the amazing fandom treasure created by [info]qafmaniac, in which she took every single Brian/Justin buttsex scene in all five seasons of QAF and edited them together to show the healing power of love fucking. This in turn inspired the Fucking Referendum, in which the fandom voted for its favorite buttsex scenes from each season.

All day we watched the returns, particularly tight in Season Three voting.

Would futon!sex win, or would it be overcome by the hotness that is ahmaaazing!climate-controlled sex?

They're still neck and neck, but it looks like the issue is going to be decided in a Fucking Debate, being held on Sunday night, October 12, at 7 PM Eastern Time (US) in [info]qaf_coffeeclub .

Complete details, including how you can submit a question to the moderator for the "Town Hall" segment of the debate, are here. A snap poll to determine the winner will be held immediately following the debate.

Voter information materials include:

For your consideration by [info]not_yet_defined

45 Reasons to vote for futon sex from [info]brianslave68

Picspam persuasion by [info]maybe742

This means war by [info]vl_redreign

Election fraud alert by [info]xie_xie_xie

Election fraud rebuttal by [info]happier_bunny

Voter education by [info]firehead30

And no, the Fucking Election isn't all we care about! We have two drabble prompts this week: Morning (now concluded), and the current prompt, masturbation. The battle is between Justin and Daphne, and right now, Daphne is winning!

Come read, and write, at [info]qaf_drabbles!

Do we have meta? Of course we have meta! [info]badbadpixie wants to know your pet peeves in fic; I'm wondering about persuasion and its discontents; a discussion of Season One fanfic by [info]jule1122; and Season Three is Love from [info]brianslave68. Also, it's not strictly QAF, but who can resist [info]teary_eyed2? Check it out!

Got vids? [info]vl_redreign does, in [info]qaf_repixed! This week, she's recc'ing two vids to the same song -- "Here with Me," by Dido. The first is a Season Two angst-fest from Ethan, and the second is a Season Five take on the song from qaf_fan. They're here. And in case you missed it: [info]qafmaniac really did it... she brought the buttsex! It's every Brian/Justin buttsex scene from all five seasons!

This week in fic recs: At [info]qaf_retread, we've got "One" and "How to Get Justin Taylor Off" by negativeerin. Also, a series of voyeur fics: "Voyeuristic Tendencies by kick_it_harder, an untitled Daphne!voyeur fic by LJ's darksylvia, and "Sleeping with the Enemy" by [info]suzvoy.

And then there's the crack: Cinderfella -- and the brand new fic it inspired (wait until you see what she did with Ted), Cinder!homo by [info]dirtylttlescret !

As to my love affair with all the tiny iconized bits of Brian, Justin, and everything and everyone QAF, it continues! Since we're in a Season Three mood, I'll start with all the new S3 icons. [info]brianslave68 brings us her beautiful new 308 reunion sex icons, as well as equally beautiful icons from 314. [info]nyxa also hits us with stunning graphics and icons from 314 -- including some lovely "314 is love" icons she made at my request... thank you, [info]nyxa !

Lots of new goodies from [info]pfodge -- QAF icons here, and some Gale Harold icons here. [info]brianslave68 has even more, along with graphics, here. [info]maybe742 's beautiful wallpapers are here, and she has some Gale!icons -- and so does silentlywrecked, plus some of Randy, too.

And then there's [info]qafmaniac's 404 new Season Two Justin icons! Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5!

Icons in this issue: Twins icon by [info]qafmaniac; buttsex by [info]jameserin; animated futon!sex and climate-controlled!sex icons by [info]paddies; Dreaming of you by [info]brianslave68; tummy kiss by [info]nyxa; Season One is Love by [info]ohfreckle; 510 icon by LJ's divinely_flawed; 308 Brian by [info]brianslave68; Brian and Justin kissing by [info]badbadpixie.
