When I first found the Megamind fandom it was digging through the fanfic archives and live journal and reading everything I could. I was years late to the party and everything seemed dead, but I pulled in all I could. I’d discovered the movie late and when I did, it was while going through a rough part of my life. Megamind and Metro Man and Roxanne and Minion were my outlets my support. And in the pages of those fics I found a community that thought about queer identities and poly relationships and well >_> tentacles. It was all just YES MORE!!
And then I ran out.
I spent a year in my head, still obsessed. Making my own stories and ideas. And then I found tumblr. More importantly that you all just had moved to tumblr and that it wasn’t dead.
Nervously and cautiously I tried to figure out how to even talk to anyone. This was the first community I had EVER wanted to join in my whole life. The first time I actively participated. I started writing (and omg I need to finish that >_> i’m so bad) and it was the first time I had EVER felt good about my writing ability. Also the first time I ever shared fan art (my first creation and the first time I was inspired to draw in 3 years) and the love and support of everyone astounded me. It was a joy! And then talking to people and so many conversations of “i feel that way too” and I found people that I connected with like nothing else.
And then I talked to @celestialess ❤ and everything changed again. You can blame her for my lack of finishing my fics because she got me into rp. ;P I now have so many rp muses and 4 blogs. oops.
