| Introduction plus a question about Fetch Dickson and Queer Guy |
[Dec. 22nd, 2009|10:45 am] |
Hello! I am very new to the QAF fandom. I only saw the series for the first time in October. There was a brief period of time when I could watch the full episodes on a website in China. Sadly, they are no longer accessible.
Anyway, I have been searching for some time for a community that is still having in-depth discussions about the show, for many have been closed or inactive for a while. I am glad that I found you!
I really enjoy reading post-513 fic, and I have been kind of working on my own. As I develop my storylines, I sometimes wrestle with how to resolve problems that I have with canon, such as the crazy timeline.
One problem I have is that I find it very unrealistic that a t.v. station would hire a recent gay porn star to be their "Queer Guy." Based on what I have read on various websites, I am far from alone in feeling this way.
How, then, do you deal with this when writing about Emmett? Do you pretend that Fetch Dickson never existed? Do you pretend that QAF takes place in a universe where t.v. stations have no problem hiring former porn stars?
Has anyone written a story where this did become an issue for Emmett... like someone sent videos of Fetch Dickson to channel five news? Or maybe a new boyfriend didn't realize at first that Emmett was once a porn star?
Would strangers recognize Emmett as Fetch, or Queer Guy, or both?
