Snowflake Challenge #1 - Introduction

[darvyn]

Hello to whomever reads this!

You can call me Darvyn. I'm in my mid-twenties and I've been a fandom lurker for more than half of my life.

I'm multi-fandom, and I will never shame your ships, so please don't shame mine. I'm of the belief that you can dislike a ship, and still be friends with a person. I don't partake in fandom discourse, I just like to have fun and babble about things that elicit emotional responses from me. (oof, sorry for that, but i just saw something on twitter this morning that makes me feel as though this needs to be said lol)

I'm very all over the place with whatever grasps my interest, but my current hyperfixation is Teen Wolf. Which I am completely aware of how fricken late I am to the party, but alas, I am here. This started in July 2019, so it has dug its claws into me and has yet to let me go. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm also on a kick of costume/historical/period dramas which started in November 2019.
SO. MUCH. PINING.

Additionally, I quite literally just joined Dreamwidth the other day, so please bear with me as I figure out how things work.

Uh... I usually pride myself as an artist, but I've been dabbling in fic writing properly for the past couple years. I am under the same username on my Ao3. (can you tell that I don't know what else to say?)

Once I submit this, I'm certain I'll think of a million other things to say, but that's the gist of it.

Thank you for your time, I hope you have a wonderful day/evening!

Best.

Thank you for the warm welcome! Oh, thank goodness. When I was perusing the DW interests, it seemed to me as though the number of Teen Wolf fans was rather low lol, but as you can see, that hasn't deterred me!

I absolutely love the fanon interpretations, that's really what appealed to me when I first got into it actually. I love mythology, monsters, and cryptids, and when I found out that they actually explore some of those rather than just going forth and killing everything willy nilly, Teen Wolf really appealed to me.

There is so much good potential with the TW universe that I think the fandom has had a lot of fun with exploring, and I have thoroughly enjoyed consuming.

I definitely also ship Sterek, and I've read a couple fics with background Peter/Chris that I enjoyed. Peter/Chris is a really compelling ship to me, especially with the history between them, but I haven't read anything with them as the focus yet. If you have any recommendations, I would love to hear them!

Hope you have a great day/evening!

NGL, when I first got into Teen Wolf, I had to join Tumblr to find any content for it because there wasn't much on my f-list. But there are still some of us here on DW!

I'm going to let you know about my own Peter/Chris fic, spikedluv. I'd also rec rhysiana. I hope you find something you enjoy!

I heard there was a call for Chris/Peter recs! Here's the last rec list I made, which links to the first list I made when I went through basically the whole tag on AO3, plus some newer ones. (That was before spikedluv posted the story she wrote me for FTH, which is *wonderful*, but obviously I think you should go through her entire archive anyway.)
