Succession Fanfiction

HBO's corporate tragedy about the Roy siblings clawing at their father's media empire and each other. Its fanfic fandom is small, literary, and gleefully damaged: Tom and Greg's transactional intimacy (Tomgreg) is the dominant ship, written with the show's own register of humiliation-as-flirtation, while Kendall-centric fic plumbs addiction, the boat, and the impossibility of Logan Roy's love. Character study is the house genre — these are fics about people who cannot say a sincere sentence, by writers who can.
