c'est what

I listened to the new FOB song, and man, I'd forgotten how much fun Fall Out Boy music is. I took most of it off my iPod when I fell out of bandom, because fandom burn-out hits me that way. I get self-conscious and discomforted by even reminders of this thing I was so massively enamored of, and need to insulate myself for a while before I can get free air again.

With Harry Potter it took about two (three?) years, and then I hit the delighted nostalgia stage and started reading HP fic again. I still didn't properly go back to my old OTPs, but there was new fic to read and there were worlds of old fic for ships I hadn't been into at the time, and the HP world was this fondly familiar but also novel space to kick around in.

I think I'm maybe getting close to the nostalgic stage for bandom now too. I've been eyeing some of my old recs at pinboard, and wondering if I'd like to reread them. Especially the femslash that I got into right at the end of my bandom stint. I was thinking maybe even some My Chem, since that was less my haunt than Panic, but then apparently My Chem fandom had some kind of meltdown about Mikey Way and I thought lol no. Not right now.

Stilllllll. Bandom. It was pretty great.
