Hello to all the newbies here on blorbo! I was not tagged but I'm taking the liberty of emerging from my f-lock and inviting myself to the party anyway 👋

#FanIntroMeme

1. Going to go with the fandoms I've engaged with the most recently: Yellowjackets, the Boys, and the Fallout tv show

2. I hate to pick between my children like this 😔 as a serial baby brother stan I have to name both Richie Gecko (TV version) and Sam Winchester, and Shauna Shipman gets the last nom for being my favourite weird little freak 💖

3. Yep! Shipping is the primary way I engage with fandom. My current darlings are Shauna/Natalie (Yellowjackets) and Lucy/the Ghoul (Fallout). Other than that I am a wincestie forever and always

4. Sibling incest, omegaverse, older partner/younger partner

5. Fic writer, but I'm also a gif/edit/iconmaker

6. Will the Real Cooper Howard Please Stand Up? By Metatron https://archiveofourown.org/works/55514716
It's amazing that the very first fic I clicked on for the Fallout show is still my favourite in the fandom 🥲 I really dig this fic as a character piece, it's one of those fics that's so rich in world building and detail that it altered the way I look at canon and just kind of lives in my brain now.

7. I am obsessed with any and all images of JackieShauna being deranged and this one is so beautiful and evocative it just has me like !!!! (cw for blood, implied cannibalism) https://www.tumblr.com/faunshiii/750589711517614080/been-too-long-since-i-last-drew-them

8.This wincest fanvid is gorgeous https://www.tumblr.com/tongjingnian2point0/760305807837609984/drive-into-the-colors-of-you

9. Someone left me a comment on ao3 and asked me if there was anywhere else they could follow my writing because they liked it so much. It's been like 10 years and I still get the warm fuzzies when I think about it.

10. The drive being in fandom gives me to be creative, and the community it provides 🩷

#FandomFriendingMeme

I've been seeing an increase lately in people struggling to make #fandom connections here in the fediverse, so I thought I'd bring back the #FandomFriendingMeme. I found it really helpful for connecting with people here who share my interests, and I hope another round will do the same!
