you know, that feeling

[marcicat]

Ahahahahaha you know that feeling when you haven’t written anything for a year and it seems like you’re going to be stuck reading re-hashes of the MCU until the end of time, and then suddenly you’ve watched 40 episodes of a Chinese web series and thought to yourself ‘yay, but wait, then what happened?’

And then somehow you have 10,000 words and you’re thinking ‘what have I done?’ and ‘they haven’t even gone camping yet’? Yeah. That feeling.

Why YES, I do know that feeling. That exact feeling!

Welcome to the madhouse. ;-) Come deeper inside, we have lollipops and tea!

Back in January I was thinking, "I'm over 60, I just don't seem to get *excited* about fandoms any more, maybe I've reached an age when I won't fall in love again."

And then I watched bonibaru's vid, got hooked up to an intro post, started Episode 01 ... and Shen Wei shook Zhao Yunlan's hand and forgot to let go, and that was it.

I fell in love, and it's WONDERFUL.

[marcicat]

YES!

[bonibaru]

DO I KNOW THIS FEELING

IS THE POPE CATHOLIC

[marcicat]

LOL! I'm thinking there must be a Guardian version of that phrase that could be coined...

[bonibaru]

DOES DA QING EAT FISH

[marcicat]

PERFECT! <3

[naye]

OH.

That feeling.

Yes. ♥ Every day since August last year and I regret nothing.

(Here via bonibaru, hi!)

[marcicat]

Hi! Yes, it's like 'welcome back to fandom!'

[green]

I was stuck in a fandom I didn't love anymore and wondering if I'd be there forever.

[marcicat]

Hello! :) I have been so amazed by the Guardian fandom!

[green]

Hi! The drama is wonderful and the fandom is amazing. Looking forward to seeing more of you. <3

I DO NOT KNOW THIS FEELING AT ALL NOPE

*hangs big sign that says DENIAL over my door*

[marcicat]

LOL! I am familiar with that sign from my own door!

[xparrot]

It is the best feeling!! Welcome to the madhouse! (we have plotbunnies. so many plotbunnies.) \o/

[elizacake]

I'll second that -- it's the BEST feeling!

[marcicat]

Yay!

[qikiqtarjuaq]

Hello and welcome to the Hell Basement where we've all fallen into the same feeling!

[marcicat]

It's a delight!

[bluemeridian]

YES I DO KNOW THAT FEELING

[marcicat]

"I just need to fix this up a bit," I told myself. "Just a quick fix-it for my feelings." LOL HOW WRONG I WAS.

[solo]

ALL THE FEELINGS!

Welcome to the crazy! 😊😁

[marcicat]

Thank you! (Also I love your icon!)

[ranalore]

I might have an inkling, yes.

[marcicat]

Such a good feeling to have! :)

[goodgriefcharlie]

ISN'T IT WONDERFUL :D :D :D

(Here via bonibaru, hi hello!)

[marcicat]

Hello! And YES, IT IS! <3

[tinny]

Oh! Hello! (i'm also here via boni)

The Chinese fandom calls it "the ditch", because apparently people keep tripping into it and then don't get back up/out.

We love our ditch, ok? <3

(and the fact that this fandom is so huge and so active on DW is just omg so much better than anything I could ever have hoped for in this tumblr-infested time...)

[mecurtin]

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."

Oscar Wilde meant this to be a wistful statement about human frailty & determination, but when I think of it now I just think how much FUN we're having in our gutter, and the RPFers looking at the stars aren't better or worse than the rest of us.

[tinny]

LOLOL.



(I made this icon just now, for a challenge, but doesn't it fit perfectly?)

[marcicat]

Hello! Ahahaha "the ditch" -- that's perfect!
