Re: "I don't even go here"

Lots of this. I have zero interest in watching Supernatural, but some of the dark kinkfic on the AO3 is top-notch and novel length, so when I searched for story themes I wanted in tags, I got ... so much treasure. I still don't know what these guys really look like or have the slightest clue what they do with themselves in a non-x-rated setting. But neither do I care.

Hannibal. I love the new characterization they've given Mads Mikkelson to work with, I just have zero interest in subjecting myself to the visuals of cannibalism or the tedious focus on law enforcement. His personality and sexuality, in the hands of skilled fanfic authors, are far more to my taste.

Basically anything a fanfic author I appreciate writes long stories about is fair game, so I've read a handful of stories for a bunch of canons I have no contact with, otherwise. Three random smutfics for Star Ocean. I guess the original source in that case is a video game, but I have no idea.

I also occasionally read stories in fandoms that my friends recommend, even though they're attached to canons I would probably find absolutely offputting and don't want to subject myself to. Our Flag Means Death is a hard no right from the promotional posters and the buzz about pirate muppetry. I want my villains to behave like they mean business. But when someone recced me fics about Israel Hands in a strained BDSM threesome with his captain, and that rich clown the captain fell in love with ... yeah, I'll bite. But only for the fic and the discussion with my friends. And in a way, it's more entertaining for them with me deliberately keeping myself in the dark about the original characterizations, because I sometimes pick up on characterization cues that are really not a focal point, in canon, and I am unapologetically not getting the same idea of the show as them. At all. And, for whichever reason, the show as it got carried over into fanfics with far different priorities is kind of a refreshing take, in and of itself. And just skips over most of the well-worn subjects that attract discourse on Tumblr.

And some of the time I just don't want to have to deal with television or movies at all (especially with their boring hyperfocus on heroes), but I like the look and feel of certain characters based on clips of them uploaded to YouTube. And that's enough to give me an idea of what sort of scenario I want to see in fanfics. Somebody give me a great story about what happens if Eleven actually joins One in Stranger Things: and fandom is more than up to the task.
