Nominations open in two days  
This is the 2013 post! Do not comment here anymore!

Comment here or at livejournal with what you plan to nominate. Clarify categories with the mod. Advertise empty slots. Maximise your nominations.

For the record, comics will be nominated by universe (for example Marvel 616, Marvel Adventures, Marvel Cinematic Universe). All of Doctor Who TV will be together and Big Finish will be on its own. Not being overburdened by female characters, Tolkien's Middle-Earth works will be together.

I'm not super familiar with Non-western fandoms and RPF fandoms, so guidance on how to group them would be welcome.

ETA: Rules post here, but to sum up: You may nominate up to five fandoms, and you may nominate up to five pairings in each fandom.

At the end of nominations, fandoms that do not have at least two pairings in them will be eliminated, as offers and requests on sign ups must have at least two pairings, and fandoms with one or no pairings would be a waste of everyone's time. Please consider whether or not you can request/offer more than one pairing before nominating a fandom.

ETA 2: After due consideration, we're allowing each participant to request ONE fandom with a single pairing. Therefore, fandoms with single pairings won't be deleted at the end of nominations. Fandoms with no pairings still will.

And now that you have me thinking about it, if they really got to know each other that Nanami could understand some of Anthy's complex relationship with Akio better than most of the other characters.

The incest?

Nanami's perceptive in her own way, and it is her who escapes first from Ohtori, but she's so direct and so-- for lack of better phrasing-- willing to believe the world exists to give her what she wants that I'm not entirely sure she could ever understand Anthy. Nanami blunders, then intuits; what she could figure out from Anthy's surface is like the proverbial tip of the iceberg, and even after Utena helps her open up I still don't think Anthy would offer up information about herself in the... unsubtle ways Nanami would need to get it. But I feel they'd work, in some way Nanami will never be able to explain and Anthy will turn over then discard as one of those questions she no longer needs to care about.

I love how many ways there are to interpret Anthy, though, and Nanami is Nanami-- what'd you think? :D
