Thinking a lot of thoughts about minecraft yters and their fandoms and how very, very glad I am for the people I met through my first mcyt group, the friends and the mutuals still on my dash - and how different my life would've been if I had found Hermits and their genuine joy and creativity in a game built on creativity over the visual podcast [if you can even call it something so.... productive] form I had watched instead.
But how grateful I am too for both experiences - to see that joy now, to have that first group experience - cause they both showed me an important side to fandoms and that breadth is really, something kinda special.
And something something,, life is cyclical in ways we never expect and we can only hope the rhyme of the return is kinder than the first notes. And I've gotten very, very lucky with my rhyme, and I wouldn't trade it for anything <3
#I still can't watch martyn#I can almost /almost/ listen to him without worrying of Who will respond to him#*listen to him in others' videos#but LL and DL have been so damn fun and these few toe dips I do have been immensely rewarding#the analysis the ART the headcanons#it reminds me of a simpler time before that first group fell to pieces#but better?#because my fandom is like five people#not a lunchroom of a thousand#mm just some thoughts that crop up whenever I see old mutuals in my notifs#we're walking different paths now and we go back to that cyclical thought hah#what a time I'm in huh?#10 years later getting excited about minecraft vid fridays with people I adore with my entire fuckin heart getting excited with me#but also friends who Aren't into minecrafters but love me just as much for our other connections#I hope hs me is proud of me I guess. we're still here and we're rhyming#delete later perhaps
