Fandom nostalgia
An attack of inexplicable fannish nostalgia has me in its grip.
( X-Files was my first real slash fandom, Mulder/Krycek my first OTP. )
( X-Files was my first real slash fandom, Mulder/Krycek my first OTP. )
But I also forgot the Lone Gunmen in the poll, and a bunch of other things. Then again, if I packed in *everything*, it'd be 50 pages long. :-)
the scene where Mulder dragged Krycek to Skinner's and shirtless Skinner sucker-punched Krycek and chained him to the balcony, and omg, that scene is hotter than ever.
GOD YES.
In fact, Mulder never once manages to beat up on Krycek without it looking a whole lot like kinky sex. (It doesn't help that it just isn't very believable that Mulder of all people can beat up Krycek without Krycek letting him - and certainly not the way Mulder actually does it. *g*)
Also, I tend to burn out on fandoms I write fic for, so I expect I'll be done with the Vampire Diaries by the end of S4 at the latest. ;-)
What, really? Every fandom? That's really sad! What about HP?
Eeeek, you know what? I just realized that I pretty much burned out on SPN, too. I had just completely forgotten about it. O_O Although... hm. Maybe not. I could still read Dean/Castiel, if it was good...

Fandom can definitely be a source of fannish stress, yes. But the more I think about it, the more I realize canon itself plays a larger role with me than I'd have suspected. In two cases that I can think of, I stopped watching the canon to avoid burning out on the fanfic - Smallville and Merlin.

The whole balcony thing was awesome, because Krycek was both so desperate and so tricky and so lethal, even when handcuffed to a balcony. :-)
(Edited for icon. *g*)
