1. What was the first tv/film/book (or all) when you realised you liked h/c? That would have to be the old tv show Emergency. Cute firefighters, mortal danger, I was in love :)
2. Which do you prefer? Emotional or physical? Or the fine combination of the two? I'm okay with a combination of the two, but I do lean more towards the physical - probably because it's easier to quantify and with (usually) a distinct beginning and road to recovery. Emotional can be more interesting because it can have long lasting effects, pop up in different ways, and never be 'better'.
3. What is your hurt limit/squick factor? Or do you not have one? Generally not keen on anything that leaves a permanent crippling injury; there has to be some hope. Not big on death fic either.
4. Do you find h/c influences your mood or matches it? (i.e. are there circumstances/moods when you seek it out?) Hmmm... no. always like a good h/c story.
5. Should h/c be the focus of the fic/show or a delicious ancillary to the main plot? Have read wonderful fic where it is either.
6. Fav character to whump? (or fav half dozen?) Dean, Sheppard, Rodney, Jack O'Neill, Tony Dinozzo
7. Which character did you try whump once, and it just didn't work? (or for the readers, which character whump did you not enjoy) Tend not to be too much for Sam whump, unless it leads to Dean being awesome.
8. Fav type of h/c, whump? (if you can pick just one) Not picky. But kinda like if the one being whumped needs to be saved at some point.
9. Do you need there to be some sort of comfort in the h/c? Or is hurt in and of itself good enough? OR is comfort on its own good enough, with just referencing the hurt? Both. Definitely both.
10. Most recent 'onscreen' whump (h/c) you liked/enjoyed? (show/film/book) Skyfall was good, but won't go into detail in case you haven't seen it :)
