So, I have spent the past THREE WEEKS obsessively reading fanfic (of all sorts). I haven't read fanfic like this since 2006. I wasn't even reading it like that when I was still posting on LJ at the end! I missed my Man Booker Self-Challenge for it (well, I got about half read but I didn't even try for the other half) and I didn't even CARE. It's like I was robot version of me. Which, I guess, isn't that different from the real version?
And then I start seeing all these familiar names on Ao3 leaving kudos or being thanked or commenting or whatever and it was like 'omg, I miss PEOPLE.' It's ridiculous, people-missing. It just sneaks up on you.
( Quickest-of-quick-updates-on-me except no, I lie, nothing I ever write is quick, we all know that by now )
I really did miss you guys and I feel like a TERRIBLE PERSON and a deserter, just life, man, sometimes it sneaks up and steals all your energy and soul. Good thing I tagged my energy and soul with GPS so I could eventually track it down.
PS. Is anybody heavily involved in any fandom anymore on my flist? I missssss the squeeing and joy and wibbling like mad. Of course, I also miss REAL LIFE FANDOM OF LOVE, so, that is all good, too.
