after years of endless rewind

I think I'm going to leave Fire Emblem fandom.

It's been a hard decision, but it's time -- I've been in this fandom longer than any other, almost 8 years, but there's only so long you can be in a fandom for before it starts to lose its charms. I mean, not even Ike/Soren holds the appeal it used to anymore.

It's tough, but I think it's time for me to move on. I've met so many great people here, and I hope we'll be able to stay friends without Fire Emblem tying us together. See you guys.

Why the announcement? :x?

Given the date, it seemed the proper thing to do. I wouldn't want there to be misunderstandings.

Yeah, I realized this five minutes later when stripping for the shower and I was gonna come back and be like NICE ONE AMMY.

Suffice to say, you got me.

That was the part that actually made me go "wait a sec" while walking down the hallway.

I never worried. If you left, I'd just write more of that Glee AU until I dragged you in. OR HIPSTER AU, OR OR OR.

The possibilities are endless.

Also, prompted/prompting DC today at [livejournal.com profile] comment_fic
