Wha?

Okay, HP fandom. You have some splainin' to do. Victoria Bitter? Really?

http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/1231688.html Yeah. I don't even know where to start with this. I'd never heard of this fanfic clearly, I'm so far out in the sticks of fandom I wouldn't have. I guess it's a het thing? Gen thing? I dunno.

Have you heard of this "thanfiction" person? I'm reassured that I'm not the only person who missed all this...

Nope, not a clue. I've been out in the no man's land of finishing my master's thesis and haven't been keeping tabs on fandom.

It might be time for the oldbies to come back in and stage an intervention.

Thanfiction wrote a gen fic about Neville during DH. I read parts of it ages ago but then sort of never got around to finishing it.

Evidently in some circles s/he went on to be a huge name fan - I've seen mention of him/her here and there but never really paid too much attention.

HP - still the wankiest fandom ever?

I was with a group of people recently talking about the wankiest fandom, and the reason we decided LOTR won was because of Victoria Bitter. I guess HP can claim back the crown.

I guess HP fandom couldn't let anyone take that crown!

Just the...the amount of time and effort that this dude has put into...whatever it is he's putting it into. IDEK.

There's surely a few disserations worth of stuff in this.

Indeed. Also, HAI THEIR OLD FANDOM FREND!

HAI! The nostalgia is strong with us! Anyway, don't you see enough of my blather on twitter? (We are friends on twitter, aren't we?)
