In 5 days...

[toomuchplor]

Wow, so it's been very much a non-starter year for fandom over here on my LJ. About a year ago I posted warning that this would likely happen and it seems I was right. The crazy thing is that said boss will be returning from his year-long break in five days, whereupon I anticipate I will have a little more free time again.

I've been a fandom lurker the past year, truth be told. There haven't been many weeks (although they did exist) when I didn't skim my flist. I fell upon and devoured many new fics by my favorite authors, and often (though not as often as I should have) even left comments. It seems everyone and their cat is now leaping on the Merlin bandwagon. Last time this happened on my flist, it was SGA, and it took me about a year to catch up. I've tried watching Merlin but can't get past the first half of the first episode before my ADD kicks in and I lose patience. But judging by all the lovely people now migrating there, I can guess it gets better?

In any case, about three weeks ago, working off pre-big-event work-related stress, I sat down and wrote, seriously, like 30 pages of John the gay!virgin porn. So it's safe to say I still have the writing itch. Whether it ever produces anything better than that crap, I can't say.

Anyway -- *waves* Hi fandom! I miss you!

Yaaay, John the gay virgin!porn is my favourite. Hope things free up a bit for you soon.

Hi!

Merlin gets much better. The characters and storyline progress nicely over the 13 episodes. Ep. 2 is very good, and ep. 4 is possibly the slashiest thing in the history of ever. And 10 - 13 are very, very, very good. :)

hi! we miss you back!

and if you're looking for a new fandom other than Merlin, may I suggest Leverage? It's small, but growing fast, and it's slashy and funny and fun and awesome.

anyhow, I'm looking forward to seeing you around again. :)

Hi! Hi!

And I will so don't mind if you just stay in SGA, at least for a while longer. Not all of us have migrated. :D

Hi! *waves*

John the gay!virgin porn! YAY \o/
Hopefully Rodney fits in the sequence too.

And yeah, SGA is really the best fandom. The best.

Hi hi! :D

Hey you! I can't imagine the stress of having my boss gone for a YEAR. And then to try and give back the stuff I started--that would be equally hard. I hope it goes well an that you get more time back in your life.

Also, gay!virgin John?? Yay! *makesgrabbyhands*

Commented farther up, but just wanted to say hi, and glad you've been around, even if not posting a whole ton. :) And I'm still in SGA! I think a lot of us are, actually, which is a comfort.

We've missed you!

I can't wait to see anything you might post...

...and can I just say, O, PLEASE TO RESIST TEH REN FAIR JAILBAITS!!

Seriously, I cannot get interested in Merlin, it's like watching Muppet Babies instead of a good episode of The Muppet Show. Or something like that.

Gay!virgin John FTW! It's my favourite trope. Self-indulgence rocks :D

And I'm also on the list of not-yet-converted WRT Merlin. They're just so young!

Hi! If you want to inflict your John the gay!virgin porn on us, I'm pretty sure we wouldn't complain. I mean, I know I wouldn't. *g*

Welcome back! Glad things are settling down for you.
