I don't wanna @ anyone because I understand how fast things seem to move in today's landscape of streaming shows dropping entire seasons in one day, and networks pumping out new series constantly to try to attract more subscribers with no intent to actually maintain those shows over time but I just saw someone self-deprecatingly lament that they are still thinking about a show that ended almost a year ago, making fan art and playlists for it, and I want to be very clear:

you can still create fanworks when it comes to old media!! PLEASE do!! there are always going to be new fans who will appreciate it, and veteran fans who are dying for new content and new perspectives. also, less than a year is NOTHING. the original Star Trek series was on TV six decades ago and there are still people losing their minds over it, writing stories and reblogging gifsets daily, and that's only one example.

a fandom lasts as long as there are people who love a thing, even if it's only a handful of people. love what you love and write and draw and make gifs and playlists about it!

Can't stop thinking about Jonathan Jarchivist Sims can't stop thinking about the subtle emotion in his voice when he said it felt good to compel people can't stop thinking about how he probably sat in his office in season 4 and tried to starve himself of statements because he Knew what everyone would think of him if he embraced what he was Becoming can't stop thinking about how he always took the verbally damaging blows from Melanie and Basira because he truly believed he did not deserve support can't stop thinking about the guilt he felt when he was awarded wholeness and completeness for bringing in the Fears can't stop thinking about how after years of slowly turning into a monster, he ultimately tried to make the most humane decision of trapping the Fears in his own reality instead of creating the chance of another individual experiencing the incomprehensible amount of pain and guilt he holds on his shoulders can't stop thinking abou
