Teen Wolf

I still can’t remember how my friend got me into watching the show but that was a very deep rabbit hole full of crazy for like a year.

God same. I went hard on that fandom and looking back, how and why did that happen?

I got into it because all the people I followed who were into SPN switched to TW.

Thinking on it I think that was the last time I was really active on social media and *in* fandoms, so going along with the herd/my friends and follows probably played a big part.

I recently fell into the rabbit hole of reading Teen Wolf fic despite not having scene even one episode of the show. No idea how that happened, especially since I stayed far away while the fandom was at its heyday.

AYRT I think I may have gotten on through fic, too. Either my friend was so excited about a fic and desperately wanted someone to talk to about it or maybe needed a beta reader, which I think I might have done for a couple fics in our two shared fandoms.

I never got into ABO and knotting is a hard pass but that still left some really good fic. And I was a multishipper which always makes any fandom (and canon) more fun.

Happy reading, nonnie!

The ABO fic in the fandom is kind of fascinating, actually.

Like, you can often tell if a fic was written after ABO fic as we now know it took off, even if it's set in canon. It's as if just the association with wolves and the terminology of alpha/omega already leads to unconscious influences from ABO dynamics and it's so interesting.

I remember being so annoyed when abo came to teen wolf fandom because those words had canon definitions and the fic writers muddied it all up. I was searching for omega derek and was not prepared for omegaverse nonsense!

DA
Same. I always stayed on the fringes of the fandom anyway, and I’d already stopped watching the show because I only liked the earlier stuff (I think first two seasons maybe?) but I noped out of even reading fic once omegaverse took over. That was my last time in a large, active fandom and I still kinda miss the good stuff from that.

I'm the anon who's now reading TW fic without having seen the show. It's interesting that you stopped around season two; everything I've heard, season three is regarded as the best one, with 3b being the very best.

Which is fascinating to me as an outsider, as most of the really popular fics seem to have been written pre-s3. I haven't seen nearly as much post-s3 as I would have expected from what I know of the story.

The abo came late to the fandom. I remember being sad when I saw them starting to pop up.
