The thing is...
Two things, really.
1. Not having new Rodney McKay? I just--I can't even think of it. It's embarrassing how much that upsets me.
2. I am pretty new to fandom in general. My first was Harry Potter, and I fell out of love with the source long before it was over. I've never been part of a fandom that had a show canceled. Nearly all of the shows I've even liked got so bad before the end that I was glad to see them go (ummm... Buffy?). And I just don't know what's going to happen to this fandom now.
I've seen some hopeful sorts talking about the benefits of a closed canon, and I get that, but I just can't see the fandom holding together. Some people will still write SGA, but it's human nature to move on. I just don't know where to move on to. I can't see mysef falling this hard for anything in the future. I love Doctor Who, but I have absolutely no desire to participate in it, you know? I just--I'll miss this fandom and everyone in it so much. I don't want to give you all up. What happens now?
ETA: I don't want to move on. I'm clinging just as hard as I can. But I know it's not going to be anywhere close to the same. :(
