I don't even know if this is a meme

[ratherastory]

mimblexwimble asked this, and I thought: hey, cool! So I guess now it's a meme even if it wasn't before.

This is pretty much a fic journal, so I'm guessing y'all know next to squat about me.

So go ahead: ask me anything, anything at all. What do you want to know about me?

I'll answer one question every 500 words I write today, so think of it as helping me to write my BigBang. You're doing me a favour! ;)

Tell me about your relationship with h/c. When did it begin?

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Oh, holy crap. It started a million years ago, when I was a tiny kid. Long before I even knew what h/c was (I only learned the term late last year).

I have no idea where it comes from. I was just always fascinated with the portions of stories that had to do with one character getting ill/injured, and another character having to come save them or take care of them. Fever-induced delirium was one of my very first fascinations in fiction, too, if we want to get specific.

I played out a lot of those fantasies with my toys, too. One toy would be sick/injured, and the other toys would take care of it, or I would take care of it.

I'm also very much like roque_clasique in my tastes, too. The injury/illness itself is not the payoff, but the aftermath. How the victim behaves while ill or dealing with the effects of the injury. Hence my obsession with delirium, I guess: all sorts of things come out when you're off your head with fever.

I dunno. It's a thing. ;)
