WHEN U LOVE SOMETHING SO HARD BUT THE FANDOM CONSISTS OF APPROXIMATELY SIX OTHER PEOPLE AND A SHOELACE
Your entire fandom dies during the busy part of the semester.
I can be quite difficult to explain why you know so much about 3rd century Japan.
I guarantee that is nothing like you are picturing.
That moment when you realize that YOU are some one else's Littlest Fandom.
"Where did Chalka come from?"
"Oh, it's fictional. My family just sort of made it up one Christmas morning from the description. It was too sweet in the first draft so we added the cayenne."
"...what?"
The crazy crack theory literally consumes the entire fandom before the writer shoots it down.
I named my SPN time travel meta "Time takes the Narrow Way" after a quote "Fate always chooses the narrow way" talking about how if a character had not been injured they would not have stayed behind and come to where they are now, and yet if they had died they also would not be here. I was really proud of that title. It was a perfect metaphor for the delicate balance that allowed Free will to overcome destiny in the 5th season of Supernatural with the added bonus of being a play on the fact that Destiny sort of ensured it's own defeat.
It is also a quote from a book that no one has read and basically no one will ever get the joke.
#One-man-Fandom
"Oh I see, they're kind of doing a "Sparky McEmo Pants" thing with this."
"They're WHAT?"
When some one new is finally allowed to read the thing and you spend all your time with your brain going: "Where are they?" "Are they here yet?" "I want to see their face when they get here." "They can't even be spoiled by the internet I want to see their face so bad." "Am I hovering?" "I am hovering aren't I?"
Projected conversation
"I want more diverse magical girls/a show where the leader is not the clumsy dumb one/an upbeat show with more mature elements/More sci-fi magical girls"
Me: "Oh hey, I bet you would like Magical Guardian Radiant Starlight! It has all those things!"
Them: "I've never heard of it, but it sounds great! Where can I watch it."
Me:
No I am not talking like Yoda, I am talking like Ayello.
Those are totally different.
"So I finished a chapter"
*Drops everything cancels all plans*
It's not that I don't ship, it's just that you've never heard of any of my otps.
...*Whispers* Finne and Rory forever
I don't know how to explain to the Welcome to Night Vale Fandom why I want the Angels to only speak about things in terms of probabilities.
#also totally just saw Kaylee as the Doctor and Simon as her assistant (via extrajordinary)
I am behind this 100%
you have my attention
OMG YES!
Anyone who doesn’t want to be Kaylee at least like 95% of the time is a liar or just really uncool.
Connecting Fandoms is really the most fun thing. But what about when you cross over with your tiny fandom? Blank looks mostly.
"No they're not an OC it's just..."
When a friend tries to show you the Doctor Who episode "Blink" and your response is immediately: "Oh, they move when you aren't looking at them."
And they're like "Holycrap how did you know that?"
And you're like *shrugs* "They're just Trolls."
And they're like "Trolls?"
And you suddenly realize you cannot explain.
