( On fannish narrative and Panic at the Disco and my fannish engagement. Cut because it got kind of long. )

Alcohol and overinvestment on Wednesday! I have some pretty hilariously embarrassing overinvested reactions of my own to share. /o\

Sounds like an excellent, excellent plan.

I don't pick my fandoms. They pick me. Bandom kidnapped me and chained me to the bed and distracted me with pretty boys in eyeliner until I was stockholmed into submission. I'm not complaining. I'm just saying I really don't feel like I chose this. You never know what's going to grab you

Word!

The current canon is not grabbing me. I recognize that 75% of the reason the past canon gripped me so hard was the idea that four guys could be that close to each other, and unabashed about it. I tried to read some Brendon/Ryan yesterday and it just wasn't doing it for me, like at all. :( :( Damn it.

Oh yeah, me too. That was absolutely a huge amount of the appeal. The current canon isn't grabbing me either. Who knows what will happen in the future, but for the moment a certain amount of distance isn't a bad thing. I actually haven't even tried to read any fic yet.

Adrian Grenier is really really remarkably pretty. It is one of the many things I love about Entourage!

redbrickrose July 14 2009, 02:56:58 UTC

Adrian Grenier is ALARMING pretty. Like, I don't even know what to do with how pretty he is.

I thought I had an Entourage icon. I don't. That must be rectified immediately.

I had a really long comment here about RPF and fannish interaction and a whole bunch of things, but none of it really needs to be said. I'm sorry that your source has changed so dramatically. It sucks. ♥

redbrickrose July 14 2009, 04:24:37 UTC

Thanks, honey. ♥ It's okay. All fandoms break your heart eventually, right? I'm feeling better than I was, for sure - not *good* by any means, but better.

My second favorite part is how almost unbearably attractive Adrian Grenier is.
HIS. EYES.

redbrickrose July 14 2009, 14:19:40 UTC

EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM, REALLY.

aurora_84 July 14 2009, 14:36:00 UTC

OKAY YES.

(But still: EYES!

redbrickrose July 14 2009, 14:37:48 UTC

THAT IS A VALID POINT.
