June Something

A little late to this so I'll do two questions a day until I catch up. Something simple and fun to get me posting here :^)

Day 1: What's changed about your fandom life in the last 365 days?
I've read a lot more fanfiction than I have since, phew, high school. I really appreciate people who leave Kudos and Comments on my stuff on AO3 so I like to go check out their profiles and read anything that appeals to me if they have works up. And when I went on that road trip earlier in the year I took a bunch of Fanfics I had downloaded (some I saved over a year ago, oop) and read them on my Kindle (then left kudos/comments on the fics when I got back home). And being on Dreamwidth I occasionally come across people's fanfics and read those too if I'm familiar with the series and sometimes even if I'm not! I've wanted to become more active in Fandom spaces in the last couple years and I see reading and writing FF as a big part of that, even if I don't actually post much, ahah.

Day 2: You've got your OTP, you have to throw a third into the mix (from the same fandom), creating an OT3. Who is the OTP, and in your opinion, why would they make a perfect third for them? Bonus question: What about adding a third to your OTP from a different fandom? Who and why?

ALL HAIL THE POLYCULE!!!
My Dragon Age OTP, Hawke and Fenris, do very well with Isabela. I love the three of them together and I include a bit of it in my own headcanon/world state :^) In canon they both have great chemistry with her. When Hawke doesn't romance Fenris or Isabela there's suggestion that Fenris and Isabela get together at least once if not more times. I kind of love this detail.
I... guess I have an atypical approach to OTPs though, but I really don't mind breaking up my favorite pairs (most of the time, very few couples I enjoy only with each other). "That's not an OTP then! That's multi-shipping!" Well, I still think they are the best with each other even so. I consider it to be on the same level of a traditional OTP.
As for the bonus question: Me. Because I'm a fan of me :^p (Also I hate crossovers lmao).
