Intro
I finally joined Fanlore in 2021 because I wanted to contribute, but I've been fannish since the early 2000's. I tend to go by Hans socially, with credit to Purpleyin for any fanworks, and my pronouns are they/them.
Fannish Bio
The fandoms I've been most active in are: Arrowverse/DCTV (especially The Flash (2014)), The 4400, Fringe, BBC Sherlock, Primeval, Uncharted (Video Games), and Stargate Atlantis.
I also lurk in a lot more fandoms. I used to like doing recs lists - I did a few stints on crack_van for some of my favourite fandoms - but I generally don't have enough energy to do that anymore.
I used to run McKay/Weir Central forums (php fusion based) and Weir/McKay Fanfic Archive (efiction based), as well as The ARChive Primeval fanfic archive (also efiction based) until hosting costs got too much for me. I also used to run a few small LJ communities like diana_marco and mwexplosion back when LJ was still active.
I'm on dreamwidth but not that active on there and never fully moved all my fanworks across. I'm slowly uploading old fanfic to AO3, so if there's something of mine you like and want to see on AO3, feel free to poke me about putting it up faster.
These days, I'm mostly based on tumblr and ao3. I organise events for DCTVGen, Hartmonfest, SnowbarrySpot, and Multiamory March as of 2021. I also run the polyamships multifandom tumblr, though that's fairly new and I could do with some help for that.
I own/mod a couple of discord servers too - Forever Fringe Friday, and Snowbarry Spot (designed to be multishipper and Iris fans friendly unlike a lot of SB spaces). I keep wondering about setting up a multifandom small/old/dead fandoms discord too but probably couldn't do that alone.
Mainly I write fic and make moodboards/aesthetics, but I also betaread in various fandoms. I occasionally make fanvids, gifsets, and photo manips too. I'm somewhat known on tumblr for making graphics for Six Sentence Sunday and related fandom event days like Work In Progress Wednesday.
Fanvids
Rodney_McKay's_Sunscreen - Quite an old vid so not the best quality, and I cringe at some of the editing now, but I had fun making it. I also had the excitement of David Hewlett liking it back in the day on an old and since suspended youtube account.
