I finally sat down this evening to do some archiving for [community profile] marchmetamatterschallenge (I keep wanting to call it "March Meta Madness", which I blame on the similarly-named US basketball competition, but it is also a fun name xD).

I'd already done quite a bit of meta (and musings and theories that I'm generously grouping under that heading) archiving on my personal site, enchantedsleeper's space, on the Meta & Miscellaneous page. However, after taking stock at the beginning of the month, I realised that I'd written some pretty good meta for FENCE since the last time I did any archiving (including a nice piece for the Snowflake Challenge here on DW!) Also, I've wanted to spend some time going through Mastodon to find meta-ish thoughts I've written about things like vidding and drabbles and collect those together somewhere less ephemeral - probably on this blog.

So, these are my projects for the month! So far, I've ticked off the first one: three new pieces of FENCE meta are now hosted on my Meta & Misc page. I'll do an extra comb through my FENCE tags to make sure I haven't missed anything, but I think I got the main ones.

Challenge #6 for the Snowflake Challenge is: In your own space, share a favourite piece of original canon (a show, a specific TV episode, a storyline, a book or series, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much.

For the FENCE Secret Santa last month I had the pleasure of writing Harvard/Aiden, my favourite ship in FENCE. Harvard/Aiden is a brilliant ship pairing the fencing team captain with the 'school playboy', which you can imagine is a very fun combination of personalities. Despite this, it doesn't really have much of a dedicated fandom - it's one of those ships that everyone is happy to ship but that kind of plays second fiddle to the main canon ship (Seiji/Nicholas), usually appearing as a side pairing in fanworks.

As part of canon review for my Secret Santa, I enjoyed re-reading Harvard and Aiden's interactions in the comics (they are also a canon pairing in the spin-off novels by Sarah Rees Brennan, but I'm not a fan of the books) and so for Challenge #6, I'm going to break down a scene that shows why I love Harvard/Aiden so much. I think this also works for Challenge #9, which is all about reccing a thing you love!

But first, who are our characters?
