Happy Merlin Day! Or Saturday, if you're a heathen
Wow, this week has been the biggest emotional rollercoaster ever (fannishly speaking -- real life is quite nice for the most part). I have never had so many huge fandom ups and downs in such a short space of time.
Let's focus on the ups:
-- I got to go see Parked at the DC Irish film festival screening with chelseafrew and stellarmeadow. A very good movie hitting surprisingly close to home for me on a few levels. Colin Morgan remains a relentlessly impressive actor and also just exquisite to look at. I got to meet and chat with stagarden and wave briefly to incapricious (okay, we really just have to meet properly already!)
-- People actually read and liked my unicorn porn! I love you guys so much for actually giving it a chance.
-- I got the best story ever for merlin_holidays! If you like modern royal AUs, you are going to love this. If you like teenage boys kissing, pining, jealousy, or second chances at love, you will love this. Disregard the rating and the unnecessarily self-deprecating author's note -- you are going to love this fic.
Here, go read it: Same River Twice.
I can't wait to find out who wrote it and HOW THEY CLIMBED INTO MY BRAIN.
So what were your fannish ups and downs this week?
