Fannish packrat - fandoms and other points of completist behavior

[petra]

Last updated April 26, 2026.

If you're browsing this list because I've offered to write drabbles or something similar, please be aware that the "likely not again" tags are not a challenge for you to come up with the perfect prompt that will reignite my passion for a particular source. The fandoms with those tags are here because I'm a completist, but they are tagged as such because I will most likely reject any requests in those fandoms. Kindly find something else to ask for, as there are over seventy things listed that I actively like.

Books (by last name of author):
Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London series
