Big ole hug
*shakes fandom hard*
Don't you ever leave me, you fool, don't ever leave me!
*hugs fandom hard*
You. Hey you! Yes you, walkin' on by, thinking 'bout leaving all this behind. Why aren't you writing brow ridge fic?
*shakes fandom again, harder this time, jouncey trampoline grip I've got*
I love the Angel theme song. I love it like whoa. I heard it last night and I cried.
I don't cry much.
Don't you ever leave me, you fool, don't ever leave me!

The thing is, I fandom hop. I used to be a big fandom hopper. But most of my obsessions, once obsessed, I stay obsessed, and once in a fandom, I always come *back* to it. I get very intensely obsessed with something for a very *short* amoung of time, then I lay off, then I come back. And since getting hooked on Jossverse, I've totally hopped in and out and back again. I haven't gotten CRAZY over another fandom since I've been in this one, but I know even if I did, I'd totally come back here just as intense as before. It's cyclical with me. But so many people who're around here, and say they're leaving, it feels so . . . *final*. And if there's one thing I do have experience with, it's old dead fandoms, in which no one is interested any more, except me being utterly obsessed with it and having no one to talk to over it.
Dude, so completely rambling because it's like 4am. I'm glad you're not going anywhere. *builds a fire in the hearth and serves you hazelnut hot chocolate. With melty marshmellows.*

Aww. See this is the best ::snuggles you back::
Is it weird that sometimes I have an urge to cling to Jossverse fandom's broad manly chest while crying "There's not enogh time, not enough time. I'll never forget!" Um, okay, just me then...
I've been thinking about fandoms and shows and what makes me love them. Since BtVS, and Ats and Firefly bit the dust I have enjoyed other shows, but I'm not passionate about them in that special, tingly, obsessive way. I like 'House,' it's a great show but it doesn't make me want to write fic. I've missed most of 'Lost,' so couldn't really say if I'd have loved it. 'Doctor who,' is fine, but it just doesn't hit my emotional kinks. 'Oz,' well, I'd like to see more because Beecher and Keller have that whole Buffy/Faith vibe going on, but that's exactly it, I'd rather just have more B/F. As for BSG, I finally caught the fandom bandwagon, and I love the show, but I don't *LOVE* it. I especially love Starbuck, the character practically has lesbian icon tattood on her, but the first thing i thought was, wouldn't it be interesting to see what would happen if she met Faith, they could drink too much whiskey, and stoically not talk about their screwed up childhoods, at some point there would probably be fighting...
Er, anyway, my point was that no other shows have done to me what those Jossverse shows and characters do to me. I have a secret fear that someday a show will come along and sweep me off my feet and I won't be in love with them any more, but so far that hasn't happened, and even if it did, in my heart of hearts I know I'd come back.
Yesterday, a re-run of 'Passion' was on and I was watching it with a friend. He turned to me half way through and said, 'y'know, I don't think I ever see you looking as happy as when you're watching Buffy.' And it's probably true.

HAHAHA! Not just you!
I don't think I've ever been in love with another fandom quite the way I am with Jossverse, but there've been others (movies and books, mostly. Most TV shows do nothing for me. Which is why I rarely watch TV. Which is also partly why Jossverse holds me tighter; there's so much MORE material in it than in most of the movies and books I've been obsessed with, no matter how long).

Well, like I said, with the way I am, I know it'll most likely WILL happen. And I know I WILL come back! Dude, I'll still be reading fanfic for it when I'm 93.

Awww. *glomps you*
