(no subject)

I will try to do some longer intro post/get to know me thing soon, but in the mean time: hello! I am figuring this thing out as I go! It is strange leaving (or starting leave) tumblr. I am still a relative fandom newcomer, only getting into fandom around 2013-ish. This means that unlike a lot of people my age, tumblr (well, mostly AO3, but also tumblr) was my first fandom home. I never had an LJ, so I don't have any nostalgia for that era, and the style of fandom that lived there is still pretty unfamiliar to me. I know I am not alone in DW being new and different, rather than a familiar throwback, so it seems like now is as good a time as any to be a newbie here. I have heard so many war stories about Strikethrough for so long, that in a strange way, getting bucked by a platform like this feels like a fandom rite of passage.
