Put down my book list for a hot second to finish watching some things.

Ghosts (US) (season 5) - This is such a silly fun show! I know like 1 person that watches it and yet to have been going for five seasons it must have some popularity somewhere.

Doctor Who (season ?? - this 2025 one) - I didn't even know this season was airing until I saw a random news article. Finale was recent so ( spoilers )

Leverage Redemption (season 3) - My comforting revenge show.

Mission: Impossible - I'm having such an unexpected moment with the Mission: Impossible franchise? I wasn't even going to go see the new movie but then I did and I enjoyed it a lot which reminded me that I enjoyed the other movies so I rewatched them all and they're ridiculously fun. I love Ghost Protocol and Rogue Nation best but watching all of them is so interesting because it's like okay the first movie is much more of a spy movie, the second movie is I don't even know, like I would love to know what direction John Woo was giving to Dougray Scott because he was fully insane in it, then we get JJ Abrams MI3, and then Ghost Protocol with the Russian prison escape and the Burj Khalifa, Rogue Nation gives us Ilsa, honestly they're all fun to me. I spent the last like 2 weeks watching these and reading fic and here's a fic rec list if anyone's interested.

Also a couple weeks ago was

vidukon_cardiff (Bristol)! As always, live-watching and Discord commenting on hundreds of vids with other vid-loving people was great and I've got a whole new docket of shows and movies I'd never heard of to add to my watch list. I didn't make a vid for Premieres this year which was a little sad but someday I will vid again!

Fandoms
Since I'm currently between main fandoms, I'm just going to list a mix of old and potential future ones, but do not worry too much about the fandom you pick.

Somewhat recent fandoms
Unless specified, feel free to pick whatever characters, pairings, etc.

Honkai: Star Rail,
The Scum Villain's Self Saving System,
DCU batfamily,
Debut or Die,
S-Classes that I Raised,
The Disabled Tyrant's Pet Palm Fish,
Jeff Satur - Works & Related Fandoms.

Older, but can always make a comeback
For those (with the exception of K-Pop), I think I'd prefer more emphasis on plot than romance, though it can be there, too.

KinnPorsche,
Sk8 the Infinity,
Genshin Impact,
Naruto,
My Hero Academia,
Katekyou Hitman Reborn,
K-Pop, in no particular order: ATEEZ, Monsta X, SEVENTEEN, TXT, BTS, Mamamoo, Stray Kids, Triple H, KARD, ATEEZ, OnlyOneOf, any girl's group.

Might get into next
In that case, I'd appreciate something that can be understood with my limited knowledge of canon, or that comes with a link to a primer/whatever information I need to bridge the gap.

The Next Prince: I've seen enough gifsets to have a general idea,
Dungeon Meshi: I watched the first season of the anime.

If there are other fandoms you think I might like, please feel free to ask the mods to ask me or bring the fandom up at some point or whatever, it might work!

Not fandom specific
Also feel free to record:

Anything tagged "GIMME" or "extra bookmark" in my own ao3 bookmarks, regardless of fandom.
Original works; any self-explanatory setting that doesn't need me to check out the source, or anything that comes with a primer, would be fine.
Podfic meta.

Story likes

Meta
Easy option: a podficcer's commentary on any one of your projects
If you don't know where to start, here are a few questions I’d love to hear about:

Why did you pick this project?
How did podficcing go? Any surprises, good or bad, challenges?
How do you feel about the results?
How does this tie back into your other projects? Any previous ones it's relevant to mention?
What do you want to do next?

Any and all podfic meta

Audio discussions like Behind the Pod/Auralphonic/Pod Aware,
Ao3 stats breakdowns,
Tutorials,
Essays, …

Canon and fandom meta in general

Fic Clique style recs,
Primers,
Analysis,
Audio collages, ...

Platonic affection and commitment
Gen, or close to it

Pre-slash?
Only 100 words of romance in a sea of plot?
Filthy, tender and loving but totally platonic porn?
All good.

Stuff that ~feels~ aro to me

QPRs,
Ace/aro stories,
Strong friendships,
Found and chosen family,
Sensual attraction,
Touch hunger,
Touch as a love language or a communication method,
Cuddling and snuggling,
Loneliness-induced angst and hurt/comfort..

In terms of fic, this translates to:

A lot of group polya,
Gen fic or could-be-gen-could-be-polya fic,
Some supernatural or a/b/o AUs (pack, coven, etc),
All the skinship.

World exploration
In general

Canon divergence,
What-if,
Trope in/subversion,
Crack and crack treated seriously,
Non-standard worldbuilding,
Take your fandom to work,
Deep dive into someone’s lived experience,
Take your fandom to therapy.

That means I'll love anything about:

Fandom culture and/or media in-universe,
Culture, language, sociopolitics.

Story dislikes

The expected romantic experience

Kid fic (exception: the kid is canonically a kid and a main character), deaging,
Pregnancy (including mpreg and impreg),
Marriage and weddings,
Proposals,
Meeting the parents,
Romantic milestones as a focus in general,
Romantic curtain fic.

Gendered expectations

Focus on traditionally “feminine” tasks like childcare, household chores, etc for female characters, omegas or whoever else stands in for women in this world,
Unquestioned fantasy gender essentialism in a/b/o or D/s AUs.

Romance dubcon

Soulmate AUs,
Sneakily dating someone,
“How could you not realize we were dating”,
Dating under false pretenses,
Fake dating or friends-with-benefits with pining and “it’s not enough but I’ll take what I can get”,
Strong, unquestioned power imbalance,
Betting on relationships.

Other random dislikes

Homophobia as a quick relationship plot point,
Mundane high school or college AUs,
Religious (mostly christian lbh) themes,
Miscommunication that could be solved by blurting it out, no character development in sight,
Case fic.

Do Not Wants

Apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic settings, dystopias, mostly the huge hopelessness/helplessness that comes with it,
Psychological violence, internal pov of bigotted or cruel characters,
Dub/noncon that isn’t treated seriously,
Ambiguous or unhappy endings,
Incest.

On smut

I like

Praise,
Edging,
Oversensitivity,
All the nice feelings.
Pure porn is great, using sex to tell a story is also lovely.

I dislike

Piss/scat,
Daddy/mommy kink,
Humiliation,
Noncon or heavy dubcon that's supposed to be sexy, including as fantasy/role play,
Pet play,
Meh on role play in general.

Audio tastes

Experimental or non-traditional stuff
Stuff that’s a personal challenge for you

Character voices,
Accents,
Other languages,
Music,
Sound effects,
Soundscaping,
Cover art,
Multivoice,
Collaborations,
…

Non-traditional text formats

Phone calls,
Epistolary,
Poetry,
Script formats,
Made for audio,
Notfic and chatfic,
Dialogue-only or dialogue-heavy,
In-universe media,
Annotated versions,
Just plain interesting formatting,
…

Non-traditional podfic formats

Podvids,
Adlib and oral notfics,
Color commentary,
Multiformat stuff,
Audio zines,
Remixes,
Playlists,
Filks,
Abridged versions,
Podfic excerpts,
Heavily adapting the text,
…

Low standard, low effort
I do not like the idea of you having a bad time with it, or feeling like you have to reach a certain length or quality. I do like the idea of a personal challenge to lower your own standards.

Super short podfics,
Unfinished WIPs,
Random podfics recorded three months ago,
Podfics you’re not that proud of,
No cover,
No music,
No workskin,
Raw unedited podfics,
All the background noise,
All the breaths,
All the clicks,
...

Additional opt-ins
I'm also opting in to:

Repods of existing podfics, including my own,
Transformative works based on my own works, including but not limited to podfics of my own writing,
Main gifts that also fulfill another challenge, as long as the gift was still designed for me,
Treats for several recipients or treats that also fulfill another challenge, as long as the treat relates at least somewhat to my interests.

And ultimately, whatever you do, as long as you have a good time, I’ll be happy!
