Fandom Relationship Issues
I need to stop jumping into bed with every fandom that bats its eyelashes at me.
I mean, not that it isn't great, every time, but I want more than just a quick roll in the hay. I want to have a relationship, I want to know my fandom inside out. I want to go to sleep knowing it'll be there in the morning, waiting with more awesome to make me happy.
I thought Doctor Who could be The One for me. We get along brilliantly, and David Tennant is the hottest man alive. But maybe I'm really just going for the looks here. I've met this other fandom now, and I'm feeling this spark that wasn't really there since House fandom had its identity crisis and broke up with me. The new one has its faults - it's tiny, and many writers are newbies writing newbie fic, and also, the canon consists of a total of 16 episodes - and maybe it's just my over-enthusiasm striking again. But maybe it isn't. Maybe Life on Mars fandom and I have something we can work with.
Don't worry, I won't be abandoning my old friends. I still love you, Doctor Who, and I still wish you'd work out your problems and come back to me, House. I'll be around. Friendship is stronger than love, they say, right?

OMG LIFE ON MARS. The finale made me squee with glee. Every single time. I've watched the show three times so far, and eeeh. So much glee. I'm currently in the process of writing LONG META about the finale and the show in general. Be sure to keep an eye out! Or not, lol xD.
Also, I'm involved in setting up a fic archive. It'll be going live soon, so fic will be easier to find! :D
As you can see, I'm doing everything to make this the steady relationship I'm looking for, lol xD. And thanks for putting up for my ever-changing fandom tastes! So far, ours seem to be quite similar, anyway :D.
