Well oviposition makes it easy to fall into world building, just because you DO have to come up with a little backstory.

DA

Same here. I keep poking at AO3 and being disappointed, because not only is there nothing to read in this fandom, there's nothing to read in any other fandoms either. I don't care about the MCU, all the Star Wars stuff is boring as fuck, and I don't even know what the other decently active fandoms even are right now.

I was reading old Bat family fic last night out of nothing else to do. I don't even read comics.

Yep. Strome is basically the Yotes prospect center depth. He's not getting traded. And the fourth OA may very well be a worse player than him.

Where the fuck did the /reader stuff even come from? Did the Wattpad people suddenly decide to convert to AO3?

I would imagine the World Cup might change things, especially if they end up on the same power play unit or line.

This is the only explanation I can think of, but it doesn't make much sense.

I used to read fic for the MCU but I've grown tired of it. The one thing that can be said for that fandom is that there's a lot of fic for it though, lol.

I was rereading old Harry Potter fics of all things the other day! The desperation was real.

na

I keep reading for other fandoms too. Zootopia, Harry Potter, The Eagle, Pacific Rim xeno, whatever gets recced on FFA where I read half of the first chapter and then forget I intended to read the rest (which is usually how it goes).

Yeah, I dipped a toe into Hamilton fandom briefly then recoiled because people are literally calling other people the KKK. I wish baseball rpf were still more of a thing. I am excited about the crossover stuff for mmrares - the Crosby/Rodgers pairing looks tempting.

I'm kind of hoping the latest Marvel fuckery will send some BNFs out in search of new fandoms, because there are at least a few shows going right now that would definitely have a fandom presence if they had a BNF or two to kickstart them.

I've been out of Teen Wolf for years and I've been reading stuff in that fandom by kudos, just for *anything* to read.

Oh that's disappointing about Hamilton. I had that in my back pocket for when I eventually bail out of this fandom.

People must be having fun in fandom SOMEWHERE. Geeks have totally taken over movies and tv, and I should be into it but it's all boring safe cookie cutter shit I can't get my fannish brain excited about. Maybe I'm just old and grumpy.

Oh, this mentional of baseball RPF reminds me:

Thank you so much to all the nonnies recommending angsty baseball fic to me in the last post! I read a few and really liked them. After a while I had to take a break though, it felt a bit "when will happy endings return from the war?" lol

What shows are you thinking of?

Re: Fandom Venting

(Anonymous) 2016-05-28 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Didn't someone talk here a while back about a "finish the thing!" fest, or something like that? Kind of an excuse for people to write/finish things that they needed a push on? I can't remember any of the details, though. But maybe something like that would help the fic problem.

There are some happy endings in baseball! Just maybe not in the pairings you're interested in?

I know that feeling, except I can't even type anything down without being paralysed by the shame. It's not even that dirty, but it's very idtastic. The worst part is the only scene I'm sure on is the most shameful bit, and I have only the vaguest ideas of what the build up is - so I can't work from my most solid scene OR build up immunity to what I'm writing.

NA I noped out of Hamilton once I realized it was literally just a transplant of Les Mis fandom writing modern AUs for American revolutionaries rather than French revolutionaries.

I am tempted to give MCU a try agan, what with Civil War and Apocalypse.

ayrt

I was never in Teen Wolf, though I've read a few things. I've reread some SPN though.

I'm not sure if I'm just done with the fic part of this fandom (though I remain enthusiastic about the sport), the fic part of any fandom, or just not hitting anything to feed the id/soul. But I'm definitely a fandom grazer right now.

Ahh, no, I meant that I asked specifically for angsty fics and then read the ones that looked angstiest lol. One or two did have happy endings, though, and I liked those, too!

Oh good. Baseball is the other place I hung out until it went almost totally toes-up (though maybe Bryzzo will revive it).

Re: Fandom Venting

(Anonymous) 2016-05-29 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
I hate modern AUs with a burning passion and avoided Les Mis despite loving the musical as a teen, so...yeah. Let me guess, Theodosia/Phillip bakery AUs?
