I'm very much a magpie, but I'm starting to lose track of the fandoms I've left in my nest. I still consider myself a fan of almost every series I've felt fannish about, but I sometimes end up struggling to remember what those fandoms *were.*

I've drifted farther away from some fandoms than others. My first three online fandoms were X-Men comics, Buffy, and Roswell. X-Men still caries a nostalgic glow; Roswell was a pleasant but unremarkable time in my fannish history; and BtVS is the only fandom I really and truly fell *out* of love with--not just drifted away, but began to actively *dislike* the show and characters. That said, the BtVS fandom is still in my nest, if only because it shapped so much of my early fannish experience.
