Fandom Snowflake Challenge Day 1

In your own space, talk about your Happy Place—the things that give you joy, calms you or keeps you sane.

Man, fandom is my happy place! I have met so many people I love in various fandoms, I just... this is where I am happiest. I enjoy sharing squee over canon, or discovering new loves, or just chatting about life in general. These are my friends, this is my family, this is what brings me joy. I love it.

Just for an example: I have a dropbox as a back-up for my AO3. I put it up a while ago and put a few things in it, but basically kinda forgot about it? I looked at it today, and someone has downloaded almost ALL of my 400 works? And organized it by fandom and pairing? I don't know who it was, they didn't ask for any recognition or praise or anything, but now I have a perfectly organized back-up to my AO3? And I kinda want to hug this person? BUT I DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE. It both makes me happy and crazy at the same time.

I love fandom. Y'all are just great. <3
