1) How long have you been in fandom?
It’s difficult to pin down exactly (does being fannish irl with friends count, for example?) but definitely over a decade!
2) Which fandoms are you in now?
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 ;)

first fancon was harry potter (leaky chicago), first fanfic i wrote was james bond (long story), but the emotionally correct answer here is star trek tos
5) How often has fic made you cry?
…struggling to think of a time i’ve cried over a fic tbh. im sure its happened! but not recently lol
6) Rec a fic that you love!
i reread stark_burnt_heart’s How Does Distance Look? when i can’t sleep (so…often) & when the light goes out by

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

rare pairs, or more accurately small fandoms. I like hanging out in fannish spaces where you can at least kinda know everyone
12) Are you multi-fandom or mono-fannish?
very multi-fannish as evidenced by my #DecRecs submissions lol
