The Avengers/Marvel fandom has been the most awesome, accepting fandom I've ever been in. I haven't seen any ship wars, the part of fandom I'm in is mostly, oh, I ship so and so with this character, but if you like them with character B, here's some fic that's good.....have fun! As opposed to when I was in the Xena fandom, for example, and if you didn't ship Xena/Gabrielle you were a homophobic misogynist. (Perhaps I just outed myself as really old, but you get the point.)

At one point, someone posted something on the Darcy Lewis tag on tumblr that was pretty derrogatory towards her character, and the response was "let's all write fic/make fan art and be friends!"

So say what you want about Avengers/Marvel fandom, but it's my happy place.

I agree! It is a really nice fandom! I love you, Avengers fandom!

That said, I understand how the OP feels, since I felt like one of the holdouts in my last fandom when everyone left for H5O and other stuff I wasn't interested in. I know the feeling.

Wow, yes, so much this. And I couldn't put my finger on why, almost a year later, this movie is still my go-to fandom. But it is just such a gosh-darned pleasant place to be. The fans build this whole interactive experience of art and fic and photosets and shipping, but all the shipping is pretty much, "your ship might not be my ship but wow that's great art/fic well done!" It's just lovely, really.

I mean, heck, look at the Clint/Coulson crew. Almost any other fandom I've ever been a part of, if there was a super-obscure-nowhere-near-canon slash ship and one of the men involved had a woman that he was involved with in canon (or close enough to no nevermind), the shippers would constantly be tearing her down and every fic that got the two guys together would have to show the woman as being "unworthy" or just a terrible person.

I've read almost every CC fic on AO3, and I haven't seen one like that.


I think I get why a lot of fandom folk feel like their friends left them for this fandom--it's just a very nice place to be, dangit. I won't say drama-free, but relatively so.
