:D We'll be thrilled to have you when you come back, man.

And yeah, fandom depressed the hell out of me in the beginning because even though I love Archie and movieHornblower, I desperately wanted fic about Flying Colours and crankycaptain!Hornblower and, you know. The wonders and marvels of Bush. I'm amazed you made it through the hellaciously ginormous and wanktastic bit of analysis. XD

Anyway. There's a little wedge of us hanging out here with an abiding interest in the books. Come hang out with us.
