Chances are if you're looking to strike up a conversation with me, you'll be most successful if you talk about one of our mutual interests! See if you can find one on this page.

Fandoms

Fandoms are kind of like my life. I think about them faaaar too much. Not a day goes by when I'm not thinking about something listed on this page. This list is always changing and may not be up to date but hopefully I can update it fairly regularly. ♥ This list is in no particular order. Each fandom lists a little blurb about how I got into it, my favourite characters and pairings (absolute favourites in italics for both) and more information about what I've seen or played in a series. (Images coming soon!)
