It’s difficult to pin down exactly (does being fannish irl with friends count, for example?) but definitely over a decade!

Guardian & cdramas in general (I have a lovely watchparty group that I hang out with), star wars (prequel era mostly), & kpop are my main three
3) Do you create transformative works (fic, fan art, podfic, etc.)?
Not that you can currently find online ;)

…struggling to think of a time i’ve cried over a fic tbh. im sure its happened! but not recently lol

7) Who's your ult OTP?
this is not a relevant concept to my relationship with fandom
8) Share a pic that would convince someone to fall for your current fandom!
are there people who can get baited into a fandom from a single pic? not even sure where to start with this tbh
9) Have you ever met a fandom friend IRL?
several! no one currently on fedi but purringvulcan, sadieyuki, flannellizard, & i all spent a weekend together in DC back in 2016 & i’ve since hung out with them offline a few times each for various occasions. my best friend and i have also been dragging eachother into various fandoms for over a decade now
