I know I used to have interesting things to say (or at least I thought I did) but they all seem to be gone now. I don't know what that's about.
However, I've been reading a lot of fic from various fandoms for the past few weeks and I even started to write something (I KNOW, RIGHT? WHO AM I?) and I have once again been surrounded by my love of fandom.
WHY I LOVE FANDOM
I watched a pilot ep on youtube for a show that never aired, Nikki & Nora, featuring lesbian cops, New Orleans, and CHRISTINA COX OMG. I figured someone had to have written fic about it, so I went to look. Hello, long, plotty, well written fic! It was like my birthday came early.
Dennis and I then had this conversation:
L: So I found several really awesome Nikki & Nora fics.
D: There was only one episode ever made.
L: Yes, but the premise was cool. That's how fic happens.
D: Those are YOUR people.
And I thought, proudly, yes. Yes, they are.
I had that feeling again tonight while watching Aliens vs. Predators. I made a bet with myself that I could find fic with Sanaa Lathan's character (SANAA LATHAN OMG) getting it on with the Predator that she bonded with and sure enough, there it is.
