before i say anything about my fandoms or what i do in fandom, have a very specific screenshot from a friend (posted with permission)
this, along with my very neurotypical tendency to hyperfixate on ideas, explains most of how i interact with all of my fandoms. if you are concerned for my tastes in fiction, i appreciate the concern, but please keep your thoughts to yourself.
fandom presence
you can find all of my social media accounts worth following or attempting to contact me in other, but i'll list them here again for my own sake. yes, i get them confused too.
while you're here, check out my fanworks permission statement too.
fanworks permissions statement
i have different thoughts on different types of fanworks, so read below for the fanwork you are interested in creating!
- fanart/podfics/translations
- i welcome all three of these fanworks based off of my fics! there's no need to notify me. for those posting to ao3 or sqwa, using the "Inspired by" link is enough, but if you're posting elsewhere, putting my name and linking to the original fic will do! if you're posting elsewhere, also leave a comment on the fic that you've made a derivative work, send me an ask on tumblr, or private mention me on the fediverse.
- fics inspired by my own fics/ideas
- lord knows that i do this all the time, so it'd be Really hypocritical of me to not have a permission statement for this. feel free to write fics inspired by my fics or any ideas i post online (mostly on the fediverse)! if posting to ao3 or sqwa, please use the "Inspired by" link to link your fic to mine and also comment on the fic saying that you wrote a fic inspired by mine! if you're posting elsewhere, please put my name and link back to the original and then comment on the fic that inspired you with the link. alternatively, you can also send me an ask on tumblr or private mention me on the fediverse.
- fanbinding
- i welcome fanbinding based off of my fanfics! please only share non-editable typeset files (such as PDFs) with other fans. please only handbind my fanworks (no printing service). if you create fanbinding based on my fanwork, there’s no need to notify or credit me beyond using the “Inspired by” link on AO3, but feel free to leave a comment on the fic that inspired you, send me an ask on tumblr, or private mention me on the fediverse! i'd love to see how it turned out!
- anything else not covered
- please check with me before creating other fanworks of my fanfics! you can reach out by sending me an ask on tumblr, private messaging me on tumblr, or private mentioning me on the fediverse.
this fanworks permissions statement was made with the help of this very cool Fanworks Permission Statement Builder! it's very easy to make one yourself.
fandom list
this section was originally formatted with h2s and ps, but i don't actually have that much to say about my fandoms in a general sense, so it's getting downgraded to a dl. also i just like dl a lot. also contrary to how past me wrote out this section, my fandoms do change, but it takes a while for them to change, and the changes always happen suddenly.
this is just a list of all fandoms i've been in at some point in no particular order. well, the order is which ones are more relevant to me.
- scum villain's self saving system (svsss)
- i read all four volumes in the span of like four days because if there's anything mxtx gets right, it's getting you to sit down and read for hours at a time. when i finished reading, i only really sort of liked liu mingyan (hey, i like hot women sometimes), but after reading some liushen fics, i have been sold on liushen. liu siblings my beloveds, but liu qingge my dearest. sometimes you want a hot battlesexual boyfriend and that's okay. shen yuan | shen qingqiu is so lucky. i've been reading so much liushen lately it's so bad.
- grandmaster of demonic cultivation/mo dao zu shi (mdzs)
- i haven't actually finished reading the novel because the official english translation is meh at best. i would translate mdzs into english myself, but that takes so much work. i have no plans on watching the untamed, but i finished watching the donghua and that made me like jiang cheng. however, my actual favorite character is actually lan sizhui, followed by the rest of the juniors. jiang cheng is my fifth favorite character. i enjoy most all juniors ships, including the ones with adults because i love the juniors. i put them into genshin and star rail because i can. i put them in different fandoms and grow them like weeds. it is my new favorite hobby.
- honkai star rail
- once i pulled yanqing (from the bonus 300 standard pulls rewards thing) it was all over. i have beaten honkai star rail. nothing matters more than making yanqing stronger, except maybe shipping yunli with him. i love yanqing so much i put him into mdzs and now i can't think of mdzs without thinking that he's also there. i've also done a crossover with putting the juniors into hsr, but that one isn't as fun because canon yanqing still acts like a kid. i love jiang yanqing so much. i'm also putting yunlie into qinghe nie because i can. i also just like turn based combat because my first gacha game was fgo.
i think those are the main ones, but here are some more that i'm kind of into or kind of burned out on. they don't plague my waking thoughts like the ones above.
- genshin impact
- turns out if you've been playing the same game for almost four years straight, you get kind of tired of it. who knew! i still play occasionally, but i don't play it religiously. i've triggered stellar reunion a couple of times and been unable to finish it too. i have a few different favorites, but thoma, kazuha, albedo, and xingqiu are up on the list somewhere. the kamisatos are also cool, but i also just like hydro generally. genshin was my second fandom where i went ham on my rarepairs and crackships, but to be fair, that's probably mostly because it took off in 2020.
- heaven official's blessing/tian guan ci fu (tgcf)
- i read all seven volumes and own all seven volumes. i'm due for a reread. ironically, despite this being the only mxtx novel i own, i don't actually particularly like any of the characters, except maybe xie lian, but that's about it. the art is very good and fanartists are very good, but unlike the other two mxtx novel fandoms, i understand all the references, but i don't really read fic for them. once i get my hands on the live action, though, it's all over.
- paradox live (paralive)
- i used to be a bae head, but then 1nm8 came out and amatsuki voices kei miyama and i went i have to have him. i love kei miyama. i think he should be boiled. i actually also put paralive characters into genshin with some friends, but i haven't been actively keeping track of paradox live because i've lost interest outside of the occasional 1nm8 song. i've written a couple things for paralive, though, because they sure are characters.
here are more fandoms that i'm either barely in or i was in at some point and can understand the references if they come from, like, 5 years ago
- zenless zone zero: i started playing specifically for wise and no one else.
- hetalia: i still read fics from time to time and understand things, but i'm not keeping track of the manga or anything
- fate/grand order: i don't play this game anymore, but prince of lanling is still my favorite character of all time. i'm sorry for abandoning you, lanlingwang.
yeah that's all i can think of. have some hoyolab decorations
