The squeeings of a rabid fan.

I have many fandoms for which I write fanfiction, making fanart, select fanmixes and edit fanvids for, all for no profit because I'm just a fan. I set up this tumblr to rant about my real life issues... but I fear it will just be about fandom.

I have just binged 10 seasons of Grantchester, and am rather obsessed with Leonard Finch. It does feel like the show doesn't know what to do with Leonard and Daniel sometimes, but Leonard doesn't really know what to do with himself after the church kicked him out.

Leonard is so loved, but still so insecure, even after all this time. I worry he believes the people who call him an abomination and a perversion. Those are the voices loudest in his head.

I hope season 11 can convince me Leonard finally is at peace with himself. I appreciate Geordie trying to be a better dad, but I hope David latches onto Leonard. Having a kid emulate him would help Leonard realise he was never a tough kid to love.

Leonard would be such a good parent, so understanding and caring. I wish him and Daniel could run a foster home together, but I know that isn't realistic.

It just feels like Leonard constantly feels like he isn't good enough. There's a church-shaped hole in his life. I hope this final season can convince me Leonard is at peace with who he is and what he does. I need my blorbo to be okay.

In light of the no.1 trending topic on this site, I'd like to inform youse that Kitty Kendall, one of the survivors who bravely spoke out against Neil Gaiman and accused him of rape in 2025, has said here and here that if you are looking to support her and other survivors, you can make a donation to OurVOICE (the counselling service Kendall herself used) or your local rape crisis centre. If you can't make a donation, you can help to ensure people do not forget what Kendall and other survivors have gone through and continue to go through as they pursue legal action, and that Gaiman has already spent a lot of money in the attempt to sue these women for speaking out.

Aziraphale and Crowley sacrificed themselves so the world can have Free Will, and people are choosing to use that Free Will to complain.

Good Omens ending thoughts from someone who really enjoyed it, mostly.

Of course it was rushed, but I think most people are lashing out because it's over, annoyed at the ending because it is an ending.

God herself admitted that Aziracrow makes her smile, so I'm sure there's many universes of them existing.

Love the scene in the bar, to show snippets of all the characters in this au, (especially christ and anti-christ grabbing a drink together) but it also served as an old school reminder that these are all just actors playing a role, that this is just a story.

I know they're asexual beings, but the fact they didn't share a kiss felt weird, but I guess Aziraphale wasn't ready, so kissing his fingers and pressing them to Crowley's lips was in character.

I would have watched a whole hour of the Professor and Asa courting, their marriage (where the ensemble would be guests) and the South Downs.

The show is over, but the stories aren't. I'm looking forward to seeing what fandom produces, and I can understand why some people are upset we got the au instead of og aziracrow, but that's one way to end a very shortened show. Fandom can explore the possibilities the show couldn't.

I need more people to watch a thirty year old bbc show called "This Life." Warren Jones is my blorbo. Since there's no "This Life" fandom, I might have to get my fix from "Midsomer Murders", since Ben Jones is also my blorbo.

It would be quite easy to consolidate the two characters into one, except Warren doesn't believe bisexuality exists and that people are either straight or gay, and Ben believes bisexuality is the norm and that complete heterosexuality or homosexuality is extreme and rare.

But both characters deserve more love and appreciation.

[slightlystrangepsyche]

I'm as obsessed with Ben Jones as everybody else from Midsomer, but I then I watched him in This Life, and Warren Jones is so tragic, so now I've got depressed!Jones in my head, where Ben is almost suicidal, and reckless when confronting Midsomer's killers, and Jamie is sick with worry and love but still won't confess his feelings.

I need happier headcanons!

beautiful like to reblog ratio on this

[drtanner]

That's because people are reblogging it every time they see it. Like I'm doing right now lmao

The cancellation of the show is a very painful blow, but that's not an excuse not to make fan content about it. On the contrary, there should be more of this content to make up for what we didn't get enough of. I will never have enough of Darem, especially in his Khionian form 🙏.

I've been thinking about Khionian language and class privilege. I headcanon about only 10-20% of Khionians ever step foot on land. There's a verbal language very few get the chance to learn.

Most Khionians speak a kind of sign language, which includes the whole body: tilts of the head, flicking the legs/fins etc, signs that can only really be expressed under water or in zero gravity.

Some Khionians live so deep that they communicate through a bubble or echolocation kind of communication.

This is part of my lore which would start a 3-4 year arc of Darem striving for equality for his people, possibly defying Starfleet protocol, and those Khionians who want to stay privileged.

[slightlystrangepsyche]

Absolutely gutted that Starfleet Academy isn't getting a season 3. It really is the show we need. It portrays hope for humanity. Community. It actually healed a part of me and taught me that I shouldn't blame myself for not instantly knowing things I was never taught.

I hope fans can keep this show alive, or at least give it the love it deserves.

This is merely the prologue, this is just the beginning.

THE FOLLOWING 1.01

[slightlystrangepsyche]

I know Ocam actually has a home to go to for Spring Break, but somehow I hope he stayed with the War College with Kyle being his personal trainer. Kyle would be so supportive, not only training Ocam physically, but he'd listen as Ocam finally got to vent about his feelings and his feelings about everyone's feelings.

Darem might feel a bit betrayed, and Kyle wouldn't even know why. Darem would offer to train Ocam once he finds out, and Ocam would try to appease both of them but that sounds physically and emotionally exhausting. Something would have to give.

[slightlystrangepsyche]

I know Darem is being snarky, and Kyle is being sincere, but I love the way these mirror eachother.

Bonus gif:

If a fight hadn't broken out, would Darem have gotten wasted? Or does the fabulous bartender know Darem is only 17 and given them a mock shot?
