that's it exactly!
I was reading on tumblr yesterday (as one does), and came across a post by laundrybiscuits that's mostly about Stranger Things and the intersection of canon and fandom, and also included this bit that really resonated with me:
"what I personally enjoy about ST is the stories its components let other people tell"
And I was like 'yes!!! yes, that's it exactly!' (Despite my flash of confusion about 'ST' not meaning 'Star Trek,' lol.) That's my experience of fandom in general, which is why I read in so many fandoms that I've never consumed the original media for. And I didn't want to lose the quote, so I'm putting it here!
