Places to Go, Things to Read

Raijahn fulfills a challenge, sort of, in fictional nonfiction. It's intersting. You should read it.

And also theorizes on Chloe's birthday here. The girl does her research.

I *had* fic recs saved and now I can't find them. I have a bad feeling that shutting down last night while half-asleep is going to lead to some very, very scary lookings for that Justinfic I started.

Stupid sleepiness.

Grr.

Curious

A long time ago, there was this chick who ran one of the lists I was on and was usually pretty freaking dour. Then, boom. One day, she was all perky and uplifted and excited about everything for like, days, and it was--well. Creepy. Not in a bad way, just in a 'aren't you supposed to be snapping at people for no reason' way, and she talked about finding Oz the way other people talk about finding personal salvation. It took me about three months to figure out exactly what she meant.

Does everyone get that when they stumble violently across another fandom that they just click with? I remember my utter joy in finding into X-Men, the near-ecstacy of Smallville, literally falling across QaF panting, and well. You know, I assumed everyoe got all emotional, but. Now I just wonder if I'm weird.

That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex...
Wow. That was scary. Lex is like Jesus in the desert.
-- pricklyelf, on why Lex goes bad

Obi-Wan has a sort of desperate, pathetic patience in this movie. You can just see it in his eyes: "My padawan is a psychopath, and no one will believe me; I'm barely keeping him under control and expect to wake up any night now to find him standing over my bed with a knife!"
-- Teague, reviewing "Star Wars: Attack of the Clones"

*laughs and laughs*

I've had maybe a unique experience in fandoms where it's been about the people first, the reading second and the writing last?

And you know, for those (short!) sweet months in SV, it was all about the people. You, mostly, with your huge shared enthusiasm and encouragement. I'm pretty sure their are a whole bunch of people who owe the fact that they started writing and posting to your encouragement -- and I thank you for it. You make fandom a hell of a lot of fun!

*snickers* You are a PIMP. Like, a dealer. It's wrong and wrong. And *sooo* right.

And pah. I have nothing to do with people writing. I just leech onto those that do and whine until they write something for me. I've been told this is endearing.

Okay, I tell *myself* that. Out loud, even.

Have I whined at you lately? *hopeful*
