smilla02 has awesomely created not one, but TWO beautiful banners for this meme. <333 Check out this post for these promotional banners and codes.

How to participate:

This is a meme for fans of Dean-centric hurt/comfort, so you TOTALLY don’t have to be a watcher or member of the comm to participate, but you should be a fan of Dean and his epic manpain. ;D

We all must know how these things work by now, but just in case - you copy, paste, and fill out what you want to from the comment form below as a comment to this post, say hey to anyone who you think looks like fun, and hopefully make some new friends in the process. There’s also an option in the comment-form for those of you that aren't looking for new friends, but just want to introduce yourself, say hey, and talk about the show and/or h/c with likeminded folks.

I only ask that there are no spoilers for future eps, character/pairing bashing, or rudeness in general, pleeease.

What an awesome thing to come online to. \o/

Username/name: geckoholic, Katrin in real life, but feel free to call me gecko
Age & location: 29, Germany
How are you involved in fandom? author, graphics maker, sometimes beta, ALWAYS reader
Other fandoms? SO MANY. Let me mention Bones, Torchwood, Doctor Who, Fringe, Whedonverse and Haven. Also, I'm big on UK shows in general.
Looking to friend or just introducing yourself? Ah, both? Feel fee to friend if you think we'd click, but if you're just here to chat a bit, that's cool too. :)

Favourite characters: Dean, Sam, Castiel, Bobby, Ellen
Favourite ships, if any: Sam/Dean, Dean/Castiel, Dean/Lisa, Dean/Ruby, Sam/Ruby; the degree of how much I actually ship it varies, though.
Wincest, y/n? yes
RPF/J2, y/n? nope
Spoilerphobe, spoiler-crazy, or none of the above? Depends. I watch promos and read some interviews and the like, but I don't want to know too much beforehand.

Talk to us about your thoughts on hurt/comfort. Oh well, strangely enough, I haven't been into h/c that much before I got into SPN. *points to Dean* It's all his fault, basically.
What’s your fave kind of h/c, if any? Emotional hurt, hell-issues, PTSD, or classic physical hurt. Illness, sometimes, mostly to get away with reading shameless cuddle!fic. *coughs*
What other characters do you read h/c fic about, if any? Jack and Ianto (ok, fine, mostly Ianto) from Torchwood. I don't read in many fandoms; multi-fandom girl all the way when it comes to watching, but I'm picky with what I read fic for.
Anything else? HI THERE! ♥

Dean + hell-issues = love.

I'm big on UK shows too. Do you watch Luther, btw? It's my new obsession.

[geckoholic]

Best thing ever!
(And, icon love! ♥)

Yes, I do! Love it, you should've seen me when I started watching it, my flist must've been SO annoyed. *gg* Do you watch The Fades? Awesome little show, fast-paced and unpredictable.

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

It's so awesome, right???

And no, I've never heard of The Fades! Ooh. ::must look up immediately::

[geckoholic]

IT IS. :D

Heh, I hope it strikes your fancy. *gg*

[sistabro]

OMG LUTHER

How amazing is that show?

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

I LOVE IT. I started watching because I loved Idris Elba in the Wire, (where he had a completely different accent; I had no idea he was English) and it sucked me in right away.

[sistabro]

I really need to watch the Wire, it's just there's soo muuuch tv.

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

It's tough to say, but... it might just be the best show I've seen, ever.

It reminds me a bit of British and Canadian police procedurals in the way that it can be slow-moving/shows you every bit of the process, so pp may or may not like that kind of thing. I do, obvs, and would highly recommend it. <333 It's also got great and consistent character development.

[sistabro]

Interesting. I do like a slower more consistent pace sometimes (glares at spn). And I've heard such good things about it. Maybe when I've caught up on some writing commitments I'll mainline it as a reward.. or see if anyone else wants to watch it with me.

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Awesome! I mainlined it when I watched it; it's really the best way to watch anything, I think. ;)

I haven't been into h/c that much before I got into SPN. *points to Dean* It's all his fault, basically.
I agree! In fact, I kinda lurk on h/c because I'm so n00b at it and there's so much material it feels overwhelming. LOL!

I ♥ your graphics, you're so very talented. It makes me so glad you're in the SPN fandom. Not to mention musical tastes!! Thank you for inspiring me to finally vid SPN seriously (although it won't be done in time for that free-for-all challenge b/c I have other projects to finish up first).

Also, I kinda feel like I stalk you bump into you a lot lately anyway, so I might as well be public about it and friend you?

[geckoholic]

Ah, no, fully embraced it by now. Reading it a lot, writing it... Yes. Out of the closet in any way possible. *gg*

*blushes* OH SHUT UP. And I'm really looking forward to that vid, I'm sure it'll be GREAT!! :D

Of course. Adding you!

[colls]

*ponders leaving the safety of the closet*
What the hell, when I admitted that I could see the appeal of Wincest and lightning didn't strike me down... ;p

I hope so! I can't wait to see some of the other vids talked about in your thread over there. The dilema is whether to go vid-watching or fic-reading on my lunch hour these days.

[geckoholic]

Come on out, come play with all of us! :D
OMG, I know, I felt the same way. I was all like, HO SHIT I SHIP IT AND EVERYONE KNOWS. *rofl* You get used to it, though.

IKR? I can't wait for them either. Wheee!! And heh, I get that. Mostly, I go for fic. *gg*

[jacyevans.livejournal.com]

So, I've been meaning to friend you for a while...

...that sounds terrible. HI, I ALSO SHIP DEAN/RUBY, LET'S BE FRIENDS :D

[geckoholic]

HELL YES. BRB, adding you! :D

[jaimeykay.livejournal.com]

You are lovely. <3

[geckoholic]

Nooo, you are! ♥

[salty-catfish.livejournal.com]

I'd like to friend you °^°

[geckoholic]

Yes, I'd love to! :D Adding you.

[tifaching.livejournal.com]

Dean could be the poster boy for h/c. Never has anyone hurt as prettily as he does.

[geckoholic]

TRUE. John Crichton comes close, but still, no contest. *gg*

By the way, what do you say, friends? :)

[tifaching.livejournal.com]

I say we'd be fools not to!

[geckoholic]

YAY! Adding you. :D
