Oh my gosh YES on the "being too eager" bit - it's definitely really easy to get swept up in a fandom when it takes off on Tumblr or ao3, but then I wonder if it counts as still being "in it" when it quiets down? Though I know that the wax-and-wane of fandoms is also a fairly new thing, you often see stuff on Fanlore about fandoms from the 80s and earlier still going strong 10-15 years after the fact! (Something something the internet is more ephemeral...)
I vaguely remember nominating it for Yuletide one year (don't remember which one sadly) but I don't think it made it into the final tagset, or nobody requested it... I would definitely recommend, especially if you like darker fantasy works :) Hit me up on Slack if you want specific content warnings, like I said I have read it... four times now, I basically know it by heart XD
Also, here is proof of my rather obsessive note-taking!
