Re: What draws you to a fandom?

(Anonymous) 2022-07-04 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm drawn to a fandom if I love the source material but ALSO annoyed by it. I need to be invested in the canon but also frustrated at things like shoddy world building, poor character arcs, etc. to get me really into a fandom.

Because I like fixes. I like writing fix-its. I like reading them. I want to see how a thousand different people can take the same bones of the canon and go in all different directions. That's what I like about fandom.

There are a few shows I love that I don't go looking for fandom because I don't... I don't feel they NEED anything else. I'm perfectly content with the canon as is. And if I genuinely hate a thing, I don't go looking for things either.

But I need the friction between my love for a thing and my wish for a thing to be BETTER.
