Text: I was fannish about this for about a week, then I woke up one day with near zero fucks to give about this franchise.

I didn't care what happened next the in-progress fic I was reading.
And usually I check out the originals of adaptations or remakes I like, but I stopped wanting to for this.

I wasn't into it to get a trope/kink fix, or because of an actor, I was interested in the whole canon. Wasn't put off by wank, either.
It was just odd for it to be so sudden because this hadn't happened to me before.

This has happened to me before. Is it really a big deal?

(Anonymous) 2015-12-04 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
Not a big deal, as such. But very strange if you've never had it happen before.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-04 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Well, some things that aren't a big deal to you might be a big deal to someone else, and vice versa.

Yeah but it's just a fandom.

I feel similarly. I really enjoyed the movie, but I feel zero need for fic of this.

This happened to me after X-Men: First class. I was super into Eric/Charles, Raven, and just the movie in general. I read all the fics for a bout a month. Then all of a sudden I didn't care anymore. And the urge to read fics never came back when the next movie came out either.

I kind of feel you? It's extremely rare for me to just stop caring about something, though. Even if I get tired of the fandom (maybe the fic is awful, or there's no new canon material and there isn't enough of what I like to keep me coming back) and even if my interest starts to fade it doesn't go away entirely, I just stop feeling that immense amount of enthusiasm and sense of urgency that 'I need more of this thing'.

But I think that's pretty normal; there are plenty of people who are in fandoms for a few weeks, or a few months, or even a few years then lose a lot of their zest for it. Sometimes it comes back at a late date, sometimes it doesn't.

(And hey, maybe you just weren't that into it. There's nothing wrong with liking something in a casual way, and it sounds like that could be what this is.)

Yeah it's strange when that happens, it typically takes a while for me to move on from a fandom(and even then my interest never completely goes it just gets directed elsewhere for a bit). But a couple of times I've gotten into a fandom only to completely lose interest after a couple of months/weeks, and the spark never returned. It was odd.
