Fandom fun

I've been having giant amounts of fun trolling through people's LJ memories, since the FL is a bit slow today. Or I have nothing to do and keep refreshing it every five seconds because I don't have a life outside of the internet

That definitely happened to me with X-Files, so even now my memory of it is more strongly influenced by the fanfic than by the episodes! I'd basically be watching the episodes so I could have the backstory to read more fanfic.

It's interesting, but fanfic introduced me to a completely different way to look at fiction, to be an active participant, even if the activity was only digging for shipper moments.
