They'll Be Peace When You Are Done...
After the news broke last week that season 15 will be the last season, I've taken some time away from fandom to let myself breathe; I've commented on posts here and there, but I haven't seen the latest episode, and I haven't done my episode drabble. I felt like I needed some space to let the news sink in, but a week later and I still feel kind of numb.
I'm hugely relieved and grateful that it's been decided ahead of time, and that we can give Show the end it deserves, but it still doesn't quite feel real in a funny way?! I think we all suspected this was on the horizon, so it's not a massive shock to the system, but it feels so huge to me that I almost can't fully accept the reality of it.
Maybe I just need more time? Maybe it won't really hit me until the final episode has aired? Maybe I'm just so invested in the characters, in this world, and this fandom, that is doesn't really feel like an end at all? I really don't know. I thought perhaps a week on I might be able to offer more, but no, I still feel in a weird sense of limbo about it. Maybe this makes no sense at all - how are you all feeling?
One thing that I do know is that the friends and family that I've made here in this fandom aren't going anywhere, and neither am I. After all family doesn't end in blood, and we're all in this journey together; no matter the destination ♥♥♥
