You know, I usually think I sound too serious, or obsessed, or explain things too much or not enough, or sound too 'artsy' or faux!thinky without meaning to, whatever.

So of course when I make a really silly/casual post about wanting to write 'King Dork' slash, THE WRITER HIMSELF has to see and POST ON HIS BLOG ABOUT IT to the consternation and superior bemusement of his readers, like 'ewww, slash' and 'oh, it's one of -those- people' & 'wtf is that person saying??' type reactions. :/

Actually, my first response was all 'lakflkajdfklsvdjhOMGWTFWOW' (laughing my ass off), but it's also kind of... scary, y'know. It made me realize just -how- much we're living in our own tiny bubble which people really -wouldn't- get, much as I like to blithely pretend otherwise, because people don't -suck-, do they? Like, they don't suck enough to constantly dismiss things they don't understand, do they?? Oh wait. :/

It's also REALLY weird and freaky to know a 'real writer' could read this-- hell, -JKR- could be reading us without any of us the wiser!! The whole thing just made me realize I respect & admire the author of a book I like... FROM A DISTANCE. I definitely want my space, man. And also, anti-slash oh-I'm-so-superior people deserve to have dirty raunchy RPS written about them till they faint from shock :P

EDIT - Holy crap, they don't make H/D vids like they used to o_0 Omg... just, watched the recent fluffy H/D vid of DOOM~! My EYES, my eyes!!1 Or should I say, the MANIPS, the manips!! :(( Watched the whole thing 'cause I saw someone say it made them remember why they shipped H/D. Made -me- remember why I avoid most fic like the plague, personally :P Of course, nothing can match the GENIUS of 'The Way Things Are' vid for pure unfiltered H/D spirit, not even silviakundera's vids. ♥♥♥. FOR SERIOUS!

...I actually found layha's classic 'The Way Things Are' & 'Through With You' here, if you scroll down. Man. Her website's gone & she's left fandom, but the BEAT GOES ON. ♥

WHATTTTTTTT(stutter)TTTTTT.

That is beyond awkward. Oh man. XD

But if I ever get around to writing my crazy ideas down, I would model myself after blackholly and all her easy going, accessible, internet in-jokey glory.

I know exactly what you mean about our bubble. It extends beyond stuff like slash, though, into fannish behaviour as a whole... I keep trying to explain to members of my family what Lumos is and the appeal of it, and they totally don't get it. They think I want to go to the slot machines. Whoever that Sam person is doesn't get that the context of your post was not exactly included.

Also, since you're talking about H/D vids, I have to just say, NOTHING CAN EVER BE AS GOOD AS "SHE BANGS"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is hands-down one of the best fanvids I've ever seen. I say that as a vidder.
