Hiya! I'm a bigender (please use alternating he/she for me) young adult! I have only been a Fanlore gardener for a short while, and I've never contributed to a wiki before, so please forgive any social faux pas I may commit as I learn about the culture. I'm autistic (and also have a lot of other unlisted disabilities), so patience and understanding is very appreciated.

I am very passionate about stopping the spread of misinformation, maintaining Fanlore's PPOV policy, and, of course, maintaining pages about my interests!

I'm also very creative outside of fandom! I maintain a personal site and am very active in the indie web community. Additionally, I'm a hobbyist indie VN dev, a zinester (outside of just fanzines), internet archivist and essayist.

Fannish History

I've been in fandom, making fanworks, and shipping since I was in elementary school, before I knew there were words for what I was doing; with my first fandom and current OTF being Pokémon. I mostly used the internet to watch fanvids at that time, but I started writing fanfiction for Tokyo Mew Mew, and then began reading fanfiction much more avidly when I got into The Legend of Zelda. I was only allowed to go on a small writing website for kids back then, and there was only one or two other Tokyo Mew Mew or Zelda fans there.

The first fandom I was able to more actively participate in was Steven Universe, a show which I still hold very close to my heart, even if I am not as active in the fandom anymore. I initially joined Tumblr in order to participate in fannish discussion as it aired, primarily due to Peridot's currently-ongoing character arc. (Which indirectly led me to my autism diagnosis. Thanks, Peridot!)

While my original Tumblr was deleted by my mother, my current Tumblr is a mix of my fandoms, non-fannish interests, and leftist politics.

As-of today, generally speaking, I have a tendency to mostly gravitate towards video game fandoms. I primarily focus on M/M and gen relationships (though I do have a hefty handful of F/F and nonbinary ships too), and my fanworks are prone to themes of queerness, disability and mental health.

I have chosen to exclude pages that fall under the "minor edits" category, such as spelling and grammar correction, as well as edits where I just add a link.

Fandom Masterlist

The fandoms listed at the top of this page are my current fixations. On the other hand, this will be an extensive list of fandoms which I have, at some point, engaged with, going back as far as when I was elementary-school aged! A fandom being italicized means that I have disavowed and no longer associate with it.
