pearwaldorfFirst Fandom of 2022: You expect me to remember things from the beginning of the year?? Probably Good Omens?
Favorite Main Character of 2022: Benjamin January. To be fair, we have spent almost 100 hours together, so I know him pretty well. (Also if anybody tells you that it’s not possible for a non-Black author to write dimensional, nuanced Black characters? It’s because they haven’t read an author who’s actually tried.)
Favorite Villain of 2022: Kaine from Malevolent I guess? idk if he’s an actual villain as opposed to a bored trickster fucking around, but I suppose the effect is the same.
Favorite M/F Couple of 2022: Layla/Steven from Moon Knight! They are extremely cute together! Also Benjamin/Rose.
Favorite F/F Couple of 2022: Sadly it was a pretty femslash light year, but it’s all quality. Laura and Marisha are just hitting it out of the fucking park with Imogen/Laudna.
Favorite M/M Couple of 2022: Ed/Stede 1000%. I am still so fucked-up about it.
Favorite OT3 of 2022: Edvard/Kasimir/Zillah from Blades in the Dark. u know those moments when you can’t believe the canon is giving you everything you ever wanted? It’s so good, guys. So, so good.
Fandom That You Never Expected To Get Into: lbr, who could have seen Our Flag Means Death coming? But the real answer to this is Oxventure: Blades in the Dark. A non-D&D TTRPG put on by the crew of a UK gaming site? But it is so fucking good. If you enjoy Critical Role or any other sort of character-focused actual play, you’ll love it.
(Also Luke Westaway has the most fucking incredible blue eyes and I am absolutely mesmerized by them)
Fandom That Made An Unexpected Comeback: The Star Wars Prequel Trilogy because of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Not really a comeback but also kind of is? I also can’t call it a fandom because I never cared about it to begin with. Until now. And it’s like all the feelings I should have had about it in 2005 are smacking me in the face
Last Fandom of 2022: Malevolent! Also fucking incredible. Episode 28 fed my goddamn soul
Favorite Fandom of 2022: Our Flag Means Death! I mean, I came back to Tumblr for this show! (So many people have, and it delights me.) The love that people have for this show is incredible, and it shows in the diversity and quality of fan work I see.
