Merlin is my only fandom (and first, at that:)).

I love the stories, the different ways that power plays out between characters. I love the element of destiny.

I am sure other fandoms are amazing in their creativity, but the different arts I've seen have blown me away. I rec all the art I love, so you could look at it if you want. Tag is fanart:)

I also really really love it when people get inspired off what other people do, both personally and seeing it in other circles.

I am loving writing stories and beta'ing.

At the moment we are in hiatus, so people aren't talking directly about the show much, but I love it when we can have a good conversation about the acting, or the stories, or our favorite bits/eps.

For the record, it turns out I don't really an OTP, but I can't pair Merlin with anyone else if Arthur is around. I have to pretend Arthur is not in the picture to pair him up with anyone else. Lancelot and Guinevere are my OTP for this 'verse. I never pair them with anyone else (no one reads het in this fandom though).

Also, there is a dragon. Did I mention I love this dragon? He's epic and snarky and cracky and he slashes the two main characters and he's voiced by John Hurt.

What's not to love about my fandom? ♥

ETA: I love the show Once Upon a Time, but have not felt at all motivated to write any stories about it. Maybe they are too clever. Not enough holes to fill:)

Yeah, like Maple said above, when there's any kind of hiatus things definitely slow down in a given fandom, so I understand that.

Dragons are cool! *total lack of dragon icon, picks bunny instead*

Dragons are cool. I even have two dragon icons:)

The funny thing to me is that I am not on hiatus at all. I'm on fire. LOL. I don't care. I've found a few new people who are all excited about the shiny! and new! and it's fun:)

Oh sure. I didn't mean to imply that everyone necessarily slowed down, only that a fandom overall generally does.

Glad you are still so excited about it and finding like minds!

Yep. Sorry. I wasn't meaning to imply that you meant that, just that, as usual, I'm flowing against the tide:)

Eeee, yeah, it's a lot of fun. The funny thing is I've been connecting with artists lately which is sort of 0.o for me because I've never cared that much about art before.

reni_m recently did these illustrated manuscript pages that are hilarious. You don't even need to know the show to appreciate them. I recce'd them very recently (yesterday or two days ago).
