Darn it, I need a new fandom.

I'm watching Supernatural, Merlin, Castle, DWTS, Being Human, and reruns of SGA and SG-1. I'm not feeling fanficcy about any of them.

Any suggestions on fandoms? Fic recs to get me hooked? I miss fandom....

I'm quite enjoying Hawaii 5-O, including the fic. I've just finished reading this one: The Eleventh Hour which was really, really good. My other ongoing obsession is Vampire Diaries, which I expected to be essentially 90210 with fangs but which turned out to be an incredibly tightly plotted fun show.

I've heard good things about White Collar too but I haven't seen any of those.

(hee, fangirls think alike:)

Indeed they do! Though, for me, I'm not invested in the Steve/Danny so much. I've seen some good fics, and I get where it's coming from, but I've been finding that the relationship aspect is kind of welded on to good stories in a way that detracts (or, maybe, distracts) from them.

On the other hand, when it's done well, it really works. :)

Completely agree, the best fics are the ones that feel natural:)

H5O does seem to be the current hot fandom. I'll record it and see if it grabs me at all.

I think it's the banter. Fangirls seem to love banter:)

Banter is good. Though it's hard for me to shake the "disco" 70s vibe on just hearing the name.

There's been a lot of buzz about H5O, so I'm curious. I can't see myself writing in a non-fantasy/sci-fi fandom (I love Castle but don't feel fannish about it, despite Nathan Fillion's charm, for example).

The search continues. I'm also thinking of writing in the Merlin fandom, but following my yen over there (putting in some aspects of the middle ages Merlin leaves out).
