Happy birthday, Supernatural, show and fandom, I love you

One year ago today, I got into Supernatural. And I was planning on doing a thing, but it turns out the whole fandom has a Supernatural birthday today too! :D
It's kinda awesome that SPN shares my SPN anniversary (ok, the other way around). The only likely conclusion is that some fans cast a spell last year, to bring new fans into the fandom, and I'm one of them. Thank you for not making me fall in love with a donkey, you guys!

So maybe I'll do a thing in the near future, today wanna tell my "getting into SPN" story :)

I was really into Sherlock, and going crazy over the lack of new episodes. And there was this show I was told was not a shallow misogynistic icky one, though it seemed to be. I'd tried watching a few episodes*, but it just didn't really catch me. But I had nothing to watch, so I gave it yet another shot, deciding to disregard the spoiler problem and start from season 4. After School Special. And then I stayed for anther ep, and another, watched five or so that night.

And I thought - this is great! It'll be like methadone, get me over the Sherlock cravings, and it's safe, it's not anything I'm gonna fall in love with!

Happy birthday, Supernatural, show and fandom. I love you.

*the one with Amber Benson and a bunch of one around it, and Windego, as it turned out, but though it was sorta nice to unexpectedly stumble across a "Tara" episode, and the ep was sort of OK...

Inorite?? *hides face* :P what was I thinking? :P Castiel's entrance was just THE most badass thing ever and the "you should show me some respect" scene was just fjljfalkfafkadfejrf! I LOVED how otherworldly and powerful and badass he was back then and the chemistry he had with Dean and so I went looking for fic and ended up in that corner of fandom. Things just got REALLY intense over there though and Castiel changed so much and I hated him letting Sam out of the panic room and one day I just did not see them anymore, like really really really not and I was soo very very happy to get out of the Destiel fandom plus I was introduced to wincest and it was just BAM! TOTALLY HOOKED. Thank fuck lol :P

lol ♥ I don't ever anymore and haven't done so for years now and I doubt I ever will.
