MemeSurvey 2: H/C! But mostly hurt...
Bleugh, I am in a mood. Its an odd mood, and is most probably due to the fact that its Monday tomorrow, the weekend was not as relaxing/quiet as I needed it to be, the weather is murky and chilly, and my afternoon nap was too long.
So here's amemeSurvey of my own making, because I am procrastinating writing because 'the mood' will influence the atmosphere (so I keep telling myself) and as its Sunday night, lets talk H/C but mostly hurt! (its sure to cheer anyone up!)
1. What was the first tv/film/book (or all) when you realised you liked h/c?
2. Which do you prefer? Emotional or physical? Or the fine combination of the two?
3. What is your hurt limit/squick factor? Or do you not have one?
4. Do you find h/c influences your mood or matches it? (i.e. are there circumstances/moods when you seek it out?)
5. Should h/c be the focus of the fic/show or a delicious ancillary to the main plot?
6. Fav character to whump? (or fav half dozen?)
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)
8. Fav type of h/c, whump? (if you can pick just one)
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?
10. Most recent 'onscreen' whump (h/c) you liked/enjoyed? (show/film/book)
Ok.... small request: I am in a h/c mood but am only finding old favs on delicious. Any 'new', 'recent'ish h/c fic in SGA, SPN, H50, Avengers you can rec? Gen please :)

My answers
2. I lean more towards physical, than just emotional. But I like the fine combination, with a heavy hand on physical.
3. Non-con and its associated tropes.
4. I find I seek it out when I am grumpy and fidgety. But I love reading it whenever... when I find a good h/c fic. Always keen for h/c :)
5. Delicious ancillary to an awesome plot.
6. Dean Winchester and John Sheppard :)
7. As a reader, I find myself veering away from Sam whump for some reason. But as a writer, I struggle with .... no one yet! :)
8. See my previous posts about buttons! (click on fav h/c moments) But I do love me a good captive, in danger, on the run h/c plot.
9. Personally, I don't need the comfort. I usually skip it. What?? I do *stares at you staring at me*
10. Arrow! \o/ (have high hopes for Skyfall too)
