Is there something I actually have to do to claim them?
No. The MoneroVs(?) will always be on the private key that your Moneroj is on at the time that the fork happens.
If I simply do nothing and pretend like it didnt happen will I be good?
You will retain both your privacy and your MoneroVs.
XMR looks to be on track to do what it always does. Fireworks on March 20th. $1500.
What happens on march 20th?
