I think my first fandom fandom exposure was arguably livejournal, but before that I was in a university RPG society, and before that I was making a weekly pilgrimage to Games Workshop to play games and talk about games, so I think "local club" is an honest answer, also this sentence is too long and must end soon.

Having a bit of fun making hangers-on for my Necromunda gangs.
Sextus Udo is the rogue doc assisting Hark and Nav (my Locked Tomb themed Escher gang).
Knot Toogrots is a totally normal human fungus farmer.
DOCTOR WHO (2023 - ) I Joy to the World
just finished reading the latest manga chapter and now im sobbing over all the spotlight yui is getting in ur
Normally these I end up with a vague sense of "I think I've heard this?" This one? Practically instant. The second note. I not only know what game this is from, I know where in the game it happens, what's happening, what the track title is, and how many tries it took me to get the good ending for the encounter - not the game, just this encounter. Burned in my memory.
In the words of my people:
...Yeah, no.
One day I'll actually play these, rather than just listen to the OST on repeat!

Further lore-accurate facts:
Gura is 9000 years old in 2025, so clearly doesn't age and tends to not die - in 40k terms, she's a "Perpetual".
Also, she's nearly as old as the Emperor (estimated creation ~8000bce), only about a thousand years between them.
I'm fairly new to Warhammer 40k, and I just learned about Carcharodons literally a few minutes ago. And as I learned that they are a shark legion and that their origin and primarch are not confirmed I made the ultimate joke that shall now become canon in our ttrpg club.
They do indeed have their own primarch. The one that was considered disappeared and erased from history. The 2nd Primarch, the one that Emperor himself has kept a secret from all of his other children in fear that they will turn to heresy if they as much as lay their eyes upon that horrifying creature
The only daughter of the Emperor, the mother of Carcharodons...
Gawr Gura
Emperor has always kept her a secret from the entire Imperium in fear that all of his sons and Imperial citizens will start worshipping her instead of her.
And while other Primarchs were scattered around the galaxy by their mother, Gura has been yeeted into the farthest end of the galaxy by the Emperor himself just because he knew she'd be far more beloved and worshipped than him and couldn't possibly have that
