It has been a very long time (or at least it feels like it) since I last wrote fanfiction, and now that I've some ideas for a few fanfics, I'm scared to write. The reason why? The fandom I'm currently in is one where I'm navigating fandom blind. I haven't watched a single episode of the source material, but I'm still reading fics of it. And now...I feel the great urge to write, but I'm scared that if I write, it'll be so OOC that readers will come after me with stakes. It's scary. After all, I'm having quite a lot of fun in this new fandom and consuming it, but watching the source material? Nah, don't even know where I could watch it. Of course, I could always just write to myself and never publish my potential OOC fics...or just shove my fanfic ideas into a memory box that shall be forgotten over time.
