It may be that people want to take a wait and see approach to Jessica Jones before opening that up here, but you know that there are people who are going to binge the show in two days and immediately start writing fic, so it's worth thinking about early. And they've already said it will crossover with Daredevil in some way anyway.
AYRT I know for me that I'm going to binge watch the hell out of Jessica Jones and I will want fic right away so I will want a meme early if there is going to be one. Even if the show isn't as good as it looks I think there will still be people who want to write for it and include the other Defenders.
There is an MCU kink meme. It's called Avengerkink, it's full of Stucky and Iron Man fic, and it's pretty dead. That's really, at least imho, a whole other kettle of fish.
I think limiting this to Defenders would basically include any MCU Netflix characters (or on the Comics prompt, their comic equivalents) including Hellcat, Punisher, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Misty Knight, etc.
This is how I would envision it, at least, and it makes sense to me because the idea of the Defenders series down the road is that they will all crossover with Daredevil anyway. So you're right that it will likely happen regardless. We may as well choose to be inclusive of it now.
AYRT - I personally would not want to include AoS or Agent Carter only because Couson and Carter are both clearly Avengers-related characters who will likely never interact with Daredevil in canon, vs. he Netflix shows which are part of a greater whole.
I know technically the movies, the Netflix shows and the network shows are all in one universe, but the Netflix shows don't seem like they're going to actually crossover much with the rest of the MCU. I think it makes more sense for us to stick with the Netflix shows as our official canons.
And Agent Carter does have a kink meme. I'm hoping it'll pick up in activity when season two comes out.
This is all very well and good but I still think they are separate enough to have their own fandom spaces especially because we are much smaller and maybe might not want to hang in a mega fandom space
The MCU kink meme is dead for the most part and the community from what I have heard wasn't even close to being as nice as it is here. Furthermore, I think the MCU films are great but my interest in reading fanfiction about any of those characters is nil. I am much more interested in the lives of the street level heroes and while everyone is part of the MCU I think the Defenders are intentionally clumped into their own thing separate from the MCU at large. I acknowledge that Thor is part of this universe but also I don't care.
I think Agents of Shield and Agent Carter can tie more into the MCU kink meme if they really wanted to because they are very closely tied to the characters from the films. The Defenders are more tied to each other.
Jsyk it's not exactly against the rules but it's also not really Done to deanon on this discussion board.
Sorry not trying to be rude. Just figured you maybe hadn't been here for very long and didn't know how the meme was set up? Like I said it's not technically against the rules or anything on the discussion board but staying anon is just kind of something most everyone does.
I'm not the mod but iirc the mod started this km because of their love for Netflix DD which may or may not include the rest of the Defenders. Maybe it would be best to allow someone else who loves Jessica or Luke or Danny to take up the mantle (and alllll the work involved) of their respective kinkmemes and just associate them with Matt's corner of the world here?
Or maybe allow other co-mods here to run various character sections? IDEK I'm just saying... our mod is the best mod, okay? And I don't want to see our mod beset and overwhelmed by expectations that fans of the Defenders may want to dogpile onto what's already been established here. Just think of all the extra work involved, please!
If you check the mod post, I did poke them about it since you're right that it's ultimately up to them.
Although I can't imagine that it would be much more work at the height of each series debut than it was when this meme started because of how they're staggered. I could be wrong though.
a) You could always make a new one? Kink memes don't spring up out of nowhere. b) Even if this meme dries up now, people might still come back once S2 is released.
Or the Jessica Jones meme decides to do what we're considering, fandom recognizes that DD is a Defender and thinks they should start putting that fic there and this meme dries up entirely. Just putting that out there because it's a possibility. Iron Man eventually got swallowed up by Avengers fandom. It's an inevitability as far as I can see..
If this meme ever gets too big for our one mod to handle (because she may be amazing, but she's also a human with a non-Daredevil related life, I'm assuming), I volunteer as tribute to come on and help out, even if it means getting eaten alive by you people. (I'm kidding since you're all pretty awesome)
I'm sure others would volunteer too so we can keep this place as great as it has been.
