Work, fortunately, has gone a little quieter in the last few days - though not quiet enough to keep me away from the office tomorrow, after brunch with a friend. Sigh. But it did mean I allowed myself to get up at 3pm this afternoon (a trend on Saturdays, apparently), and went out to watch La Vie En Rose, which was much love - I want more Edith Piaf music than I can shake a stick at, so I'm heading HMV-wards tomorrow. :)

In the meantime! I was deciding between working on fic and flailing, and decided I'd better get cracking on the fandom meme started by lissie_pissie that I've been intending to do for the last two weeks. Sigh. RL's a bitch, what can I say. And in drawing up my list of fandoms, I realised I have far too many to do them all justice. So I'm narrowing this down to just TV and music fandoms - my celebrity, movie and book loves will have to wait 'til another post, I guess. If I ever get around to it!

For each person/show you've really fangirled, try to find whatever it is that made you fall in love with them. Made you see them differently than you had before... like a switch had been flicked somewhere. ;) If it's a video, see if youtube has it, if it was an amazing picture or quote, upload it and post it. Whatever it was - share it. Post your "catalysts" as I like to call them in a new post in your journal.

( there be madness ahead... )

THAT TOOK WAY LONGER THAN I THOUGHT, ZOMG. TWO HOURS, LOL. But man. It was so much fun to go through all my fandoms. Like I said, haven't even TOUCHED on the movie love. That might take me twenty years...

Come flail with me? Y/Y?

Title: after all

Concrit: Sure - hit me with it!
Disclaimer: I am not queen of these characters. That would be the WB and Amy Sherman-Palladino.

A/N: First blast-from-the-past fic repost (with only minor edits). Originally posted over six years ago, this remains the only Gilmore Girls fic I've ever written - I was crazily in love with the show at the time, but never did get properly into the fandom. Even so, Luke back then, with his wonderful, gruff devotion to Lorelai, evidently captured both my heart and my imagination... and this was the result. Now I really want to go break out my Season 1 DVDs and relive the pure loveliness that was GG in its prime.
