Welcome to [community profile] duesouth!

Welcome to [community profile] duesouth, a community for posting (or linking) your due South-related fanworks!

Fic, art, vids, fanmixes, recs, reviews, and meta are all welcome here, though we ask you to keep random squee under your Stetsons; structure that squee into a rec/review/meta post for us, and we'll squee with you!

All characters, pairings, genres, and ratings are welcome here. We ask you to avoid character-bashing; everyone in the show is somebody's favorite character!

Please place long fic, image-heavy posts, or anything NSFW behind a cut-tag (see here for how to do that), and if possible, mark posts requiring viewer discretion as such. (See here for how to do that, all the way at the bottom of the page!)

Any questions can be left in comments here or sent as a PM to your mod, [personal profile] helens78. Thank you kindly!




(And by all means, go ahead and use the comments of this post to say hi and let us know how you first came to Chicago due South fandom! Hopefully it wasn't on the trail of the killers of your father, but everyone's got a story...)

At my first Escapade, in 2002, I watched several stunning due South songvids. And I bought up all of the songvids I could find in the dealers room, including a bunch of VHS tapes from Kandy Fong (archiving the history of vidding - OMG they're fantastic despite the limitations of the VHS media!). And then I came home and downloaded all the songvids I could find in my primary-at-the-time fandoms (Stargate movie & SG-1 and Lord of the Rings) and all of the other songvids I could find by those vidders.

And I discovered I apparently have a thing for well-dressed folks in uniform, to go with my flannel-fetish.

*ahem*

I put due South on my "fandoms I will tumble head over heels into as soon as I marathon all of their source canon" list, which was... um... rather long.

At some point a couple years back (drat, I still need to finish going back and tagging some of my journal posts! when was that?!), I found the first two seasons of DVDs on sale at my local shop, so I tossed myself wholeheartedly into them. ADORED them.

But I never did find season 3 at my shop! And now I am woeful because I'm realizing I haven't yet seen anything past season 2!

:-(

Which of course means that I need to get my grabby paws on season 3 and then marathon all of the canon in order!

:-)

I have only sporadically read fic in this fandom, and am looking very much forward to gleefully wallowing in everything I can find once I've actually watched my marathon!

:-D
