What was your introduction to fanfiction?

My first fandom was Twilight (went to a convention and everything), but I didn’t discover fanfic until my Glee days. Klaine was my first OTP and introduction to fic.

Tell me yours please.

I'm fairly new to fanfiction. I started in 2023!! I read ACOSF and was so disappointed in that book I turned to fanfiction.

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

Oh man I remember loving it just because I love Nesta so much, but everyone definitely did her dirty. Why did it disappoint you?

rotten-peach.bsky.social•10 days ago

We didn't get to see any of Nesta's powers or an understanding. We didn't get any conversations or bonding with the Acheron sisters which was needed. Human Nesta wanted to travel and Acosf took place in the Night Court. I wanted her to leave the NC. We couldve gotten more world building but nope.

2001, i was googling pictures from Cardcaptor Sakura and found a little site called https://fanfiction.net and i think i read my first Dramione fic in 2003 or 2004 I don’t really remember

eeerised.bsky.social•10 days ago

Tumblr! Back when everyone was making those crazy photoshop edits with disney princesses🤣 I came across a jelsa edit with a link to fanficnet and the rest is history lol! But I started reading dramione in 2023 after watching a tiktok about how lifechanging Manacled was (they were right)🥹

greenappletheory.bsky.social•11 days ago

it’s so hard to pinpoint. I was always into fandom culture and I knew of fanfic, but I wanna say I didn’t really read it until the 100 when clexa was a thing.

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•11 days ago

I still need to watch the 100!

greenappletheory.bsky.social•11 days ago

it’s so good! I fell behind on it though

sciintilla.bsky.social•10 days ago

I read anime/manga fics at the tender age of 10, mostly naruto, sakura card captor, inuyasha.
I made my first ever boyfriend read those fics, poor boy.
As a teen I kept reading that but also YA books/series, HP, cartoons and a kpop band fics.
I also used to write, in spanish, but life happened.

ngida.bsky.social•10 days ago

I started reading fanfic with JoBros, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez haha lots of self insert and stuff… I think I then read twilight quickly after

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

Incredible stuff! I’m realizing a lot of us came into it around the same time and I love it haha

ngida.bsky.social•10 days ago

I guess it’s our generations entry way into fandom 😅

aivlisrocks.bsky.social•10 days ago

I discovered a dramione fanfic on DeviantArt by accident (was just looking for cool HP fanart, had never even thought about the possibilities of non-canon stuff) and that was it for me 😅

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

Omg I forgot about deviantart! What a treasure trove 🥰 love the accidental intro to DHr and non-canon ships.

elphiexnott.bsky.social•10 days ago

Mine was Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I was a *big* Buffy fan (my teen room was covered in 100s posters, it was absurd), and I used to go to the cyber café and ended up finding fanfics 😅 My first pairing was Buffy/Spike (Spuffy)! I used to read on those old dedicated fandom websites haha

zzbottomz.bsky.social•10 days ago

spuffy forever 🖤🖤🖤

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

Couldn’t get past the first season of btvs 🫣 I’ll try again for you

zzbottomz.bsky.social•10 days ago

who tf watches season 1 start with 2 cause that’s when spike shows up

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

Nobody told me that okay! I need to start at the beginning, don’t be crazy.

steffiheyward16.bsky.social•11 days ago

Welp I’m about to show my age. I was reading fanfiction since 2001. Dragon Ball Z fanfic was my intro to fanfiction back when smut was lemon’s 🤭🤭🤭🤭 my very first OTP was Vegeta/Bulma. I’ve gone through a slew of fandom!!

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•11 days ago

I love it!

dramione-endgame.bsky.social•10 days ago

Buffy back in the early aughts. All sorts of character combinations and relationships lol - I had really no idea what any of it was but I was intrigued. Never read any multi-chapters though, it was all just oneshots on random websites.

gehliebean.bsky.social•10 days ago

A show ship in our country. It’s my first fandom too. But BokuAka (Anime ship) introduced me to ao3.

nocteacakes.bsky.social•10 days ago

lol maybe this is "dating" me but I was reading fanfic in 4th grade bc of neopets lmaooo my first fandoms were digimon and cardcaptors

posherkosher.bsky.social•9 days ago

Inuyasha on some homebrew angelfire/geocities type site. I was in middle school and my friend told me about it and I was like wait wut
👁️👄👁️

thisisntdd.bsky.social•10 days ago

mine (unofficially) was a website called https://bellasdiary.com

officially, it’s jily fanfics at https://ff.net: the life and times, commentarius, etc

roadwise.bsky.social•10 days ago

The first time I ever heard the word "fanfiction" was from a student in 2012. Spirited Away. It wasn't until 2023 that I discovered fanfiction, wonderfully, for myself. HP but Dramione gateway. btw students also introduced me to kdramas and cdramas

nicolawritesdrh.bsky.social•11 days ago

Mine was twilight fanfiction! Back in around 2009 when FFnet was huge

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•11 days ago

Yes!! https://FF.net was my hooome lol

nicolawritesdrh.bsky.social•11 days ago

Having to go blindly into fics and just trust that you wouldn’t find anything off-putting

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•11 days ago

The way I remember reading one about vivisection lmao. It was the Wild West over there.

nicolawritesdrh.bsky.social•11 days ago

I blindly stumbled into a lesbian triad fic when I was 15 lol

mspolapotter.bsky.social•10 days ago

I used to write Jacob/Renesmee fic around that time 🙈

nicolawritesdrh.bsky.social•10 days ago

Omg stopppp, I remember this one Jacob/Renesmee I read where he became a high school gym teacher and she was his student 🙈 it was so good

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

God I hope Pola wrote it 😂🤞🏼

mspolapotter.bsky.social•10 days ago

Oh lol no my fic was an almost rewrite of twi with a double life situation

dearmrskara.bsky.social•10 days ago

My introduction to fanfiction was an X-Men Evolution fanfic for Kitty Pryde/Pietro Maximoff in 2003 then the same year, but a few months later, I started looking for Drinny fanfiction as I shipped the two in the books and the rest was history. 😂♥️

abbykadabbra.bsky.social•10 days ago

The og drinny shipper! That’s amazing. When I got into Glee fic in like 2009/2010, I got my stepsister into it too and she went off and found HP stuff on her own and I’ll always be sad I didn’t follow her lead. I’m so late to the HP game 😫

dreomionedarling.bsky.social•10 days ago

I did a lot of self inserts for my favorite singers growing up but I wouldn’t consider them intro to fandom just because not many ppl knew about them. I think my real intro to FanFiction was when I wrote for The Mortal Instruments and Morganville Vampires.

recklesslupin.bsky.social•10 days ago

My first fandom was twilight too, I met my best friend on a Facebook page and then she introduced me to a role play group. I can't remember if the first fic I read was twilight or 1D tho, but the first I wrote was a resume/Jacob 🙃

daisiesnotroses.bsky.social•10 days ago

Twilight! I was really into human au, read tons and even wrote a few!

Then I was introduced to Hp fanfiction and my first was Sevmione (still one of my favourites). That was middle school and high school.

I came back to it 9 years later

mspolapotter.bsky.social•10 days ago

With the awareness of it being called that, mine was a R0mione from mugglenet that I found while looking for fanart! It was Christmas and they were talking about hades and persephone and the pomegranate and he kissed her after she ate the fruit.

mspolapotter.bsky.social•10 days ago

Outside of it, i didn't know it was called fanfiction, but I used to wrote self-insert power rangers fanfic lol

vlvtnstrwbrries.bsky.social•10 days ago

Ohhh this is a fun question! The first time I remember reading fanfiction was Game of Thrones fics in college on tumblr and then ao3! But if I had known Emmett Cullen/Yn existed in middle/high school I would’ve been done for and elementary me was big mad Katara ended up with Aang 💕

unaorion.bsky.social•11 days ago

Mulder and Scully 🥲

There was some site before FF dot net, which I thought was very advanced when it came about, that I don’t remember anymore. If I could see my AOL browser history now . . . .

This was before email was widely used 🤦🏾‍♀️ lol
