So yesterday wasn’t too exciting. I did the snowflake post, then watched two Enterprise eps. I spoke to one of my friend’s on twitter and accidentally unleashed Palaye Royale on them so I think I have given them a new fixation. Oops.
That led her to letting me though I’d not missed their tour with Enter Shikari, so I might end up going to that, which is February 1st. It depends on money mostly and if tickets sell out, since I’d have to get the ticket on the day.
Glamour of the kill have just announced a Birmingham tour so I may see about that too.
The rest of the day was a mix of ficcing (I finished the last of the
fic prompts from day 10 of snowflake). I did a bit more on Assassins Creed Odyssey, besting the champions of Boeotia and Alexios’ idiot half brother. I ended up killing him because he was annoying as hell.
I ended up watching an ep of Lucifer last night too, then slept fairly early. It was mostly a lazy day.
There are now
5 prompts in the bandom challenge I did for snowflake day 12. Feel free to take a look and see if you can fill them and feel free to promote it! I might try and do at least one, but not until after I’ve done the Mikey/Ray one that I started last week.
After this post I’m gonna do the food shop, then read either the Xbox magazine or sci if now (depending on how dark it is) and I’m gonna work on that fic. I’m waiting on a package which just come in about an hour. I hope anyway. I’m also gonna try and doing the Resident Evil 2 demo tonight. I meant to last night but failed, oops. I might try and watch Black Lake too.
Anyway! Snowflake
Day 14
In your own space, talk about what you think the future holds for fandom. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.In general, I think fandom is gonna migrate here. The tumblr purge has done a lot of damage, but it’s the latest in a long line. I think more people will come here (or other sites) and tumblr itself will be greatly diminished. I hope that dreamwidth becomes more active, because I love this format. And, honestly, I have loved connecting with other people through this challenge.
In more general ones...
MCR: I suspect it will become more active due to it being 2019. I wouldn’t be surprised if the mcr site put something out, be it some sort of merch or funkos or something. I’d love Ray to put out more music or tour (same with Gerard).
Star Wars: This is gonna be a big year for Star Wars like I mentioned before. Star Wars Resistance is gonna restart soon, and the second half of the first season is gonna cover The Force Awakens, aka when everything kicks off. I wasn’t sure if it would get to that point yet and I just hope Kaz doesn’t break.
There’s also going to be new Clone Wars eps which will at least cover Mandalore with Ahsoka which is absolutely amazing. I can’t wait, and I wonder what else the other eps will cover.
Book wise there’s Master And Apprentice, the new Thrawn novel (I still need to read the others) and Queen’s Shadow which I’m super looking forward to. The age of comics have been cool so far, so it’ll be interesting to see where the others go.
The big thing, of course, is that Episode IX is coming and iM super looking forward to it. I have no idea how things will go there, but I’m hoping that Finn and Poe kiss and, like other stuff have said, it will include references to the prequels and comics too. It’ll be interesting (and sad) to see how they incorporate Leia. I know I’ll cry seeing her again.
Other fandoms: As mentioned in previous entries there’s a lot coming this year. The MCU has three films. The first live action Pokemon film is coming. Animal Crossing is coming to Switch. Star Trek Discovery starts in a few days. Shadowhunters returns soon too.
What I am most excited for, of the other fandoms, is Umbrella Academy. I am so hyped for the series to start, in just one month tomorrow (!!!!). I hope it leads to a proper fandom forming around it, with more comms, more fic, more people. That would be amazing.
That was a pretty interesting question to answer. Tomorrow is the last snowflake challenge, which I’m pretty sad about. I’ve loved doing it and the mods have done great job at doing it. If anyone knows similar challenges or anything over the year, let me know
