fandoms you’re in now?

Confession time: I don’t consider myself really ~in~ any other fandom. Just Vampire Chronicles.

Here’s some of the other fandoms I like to watch from a distance. I put an * on ones I guess I might qualify to be in, and/or that I feel obligated to watch/read when I see them. I think what I like best about other fandoms is finding more excellent fanartists and shipping discourse.

[Oh! Just remembered, you might want to check out my huge recc list]

Media in no special order:

  • Tom Cruise* – yeah I am a low-level Cruiser, throw in most of his 80′s and 90′s movies here in this bullet ^_____^
  • Tom Hiddleston – *sighs*
  • What We Do in the Shadows*
  • Only Lovers Left Alive*
  • Crimson Peak
  • Sherlock Holmes* (RDJ movies, mainly)
  • Hannibal* – primarily the TV series and secondarily the movies
  • Marvel movies (w/ subcategories for ships: Stucky, Stony, ummmm I like all the ships, really!)
  • Disney* 
  • Pixar too, but not as much as the 2D traditional Disney movies. 
  • The Shining*
  • American Psycho
  • Jurassic Park
  • The Walking Dead*
  • The Office
  • Arrested Development
  • Dr. Katz
  • Home Movies
  • Star Wars (movies only, not comics or novels)
  • Lord of the Rings trilogy (movies only)
  • South Park
  • Attack on Titan/SnK
  • Sailor Moon 
  • Studio Ghibli, Miyazaki
  • the X-Files (the older series!)
  • the Addams Family (I love the Adult Wednesday youtube person!)
  • the Lost Boys
  • Edward Scissorhands

Other stuff in no special order:

  • CATS
  • FASHION
  • Goth goth
  • Halloween stuff
  • candles
  • photography/aesthetic stuff
  • glassware, handblown glass
  • architecture
  • animation in general
  • concept art/behind the scenes info
  • vintage portrait photography and art
  • classical art and sculpture
  • Places: Paris, New Orleans, France (<–duh), Greece, Rome, Italy, New Zealand, California, NYC.

I don’t think I have enough depth of knowledge* of other media to consider myself a real part of their fandoms, but I like other media, obviously, and I sometimes reblog it here under #Not VC along with other Not VC things. #VC Adjacent is for things that are evocative of a VC feel, even if only in the remotest way!

Admittedly, my standards are VERY high re: “depth of knowledge,” but the amount I do know about others might qualify me as being considered “in” some other fandoms. What even qualifies you to be IN a fandom? Just liking a thing? Or having headcanons about it? Enjoying discourse about it? IDK.

I would like to thank dril for the inspiration

I can’t wait to live in a future where this quote is as ubiquitous and misattributed and misunderstood as many classic Shakespearean lines and other historical quotes.  I’m genuinely looking forward to that.

trying to kinkshame me is futile. like oh, great, you sure shamed the hell out of me–never getting off to THAT again. u just got like 39489348348 more kinks to shame now until i have nothing but pure, unproblematic vanilla fantasies. It’s like some sort of dark fetish hydra where every head you destroy just spawns ten new kinks, each viler than the last. Give it up, buddy, you can’t fucking win against such a bottomless well of perversion, I’m gross and unstoppable.
