WE HAVE DONE LOST OUR DAMN MINDS.

You'd think that after all the heartache last year's soap obsession turned out to be, we'd learn our lesson and remember: soap operas are not kind to the gays. BUT, NOPE. I love Luke and Reid forever and forever and will continue obsessing about them but those two officially sucked me into the soap world and it appears I'm not giving up without a fight. That said, everyone join!

That's right. Same mods at [livejournal.com profile] noah_who are now following the new Days of Our Lives storyline featuring the characters Will and Sonny. They were both officially introduced on yesterday's show and they were oh so v. v. pretty and v. v. pretty together. Plenty of potential and something new to follow! JOIN AND HAVE TONS OF FUN! I PROMISE!

I will join, of course!...but I'm kind of afraid everyone's going to abandon Luke/Reid for the new shiny toy. ::clings to them::

Oh, my gosh. We would never! I know that I would never. I love Luke/Reid so, so much. An example of this? I got this journal when I was obsessed with Brian and Justin. This was 2003. I am still here and I still love them. I'm sure I'll be here in another 8 years saying how much I still love Luke/Reid. I do not give up my ships even though almost everyone around me does, lol.

Well, at least it will be you and me, then BB! (Still loving Spike/Buffy after all these years). ;-)

I don't usually stay actively involved in fandoms for years and years after the canon comes to a close, but I never stop shipping my old ships. I still love Spike/Buffy and Brian/Justin every bit as much as I ever did. And as for Days of Our Lives, one of my most beloved ships of all time was Jack and Jennifer, going back something like 20 years ago, and I have to admit, I'm at least as excited that Jack is coming back to the show this summer as I am over our shiny new gay boys!

I'm pretty much the same way. I don't read much S/B anymore, and I don't write it often, either - but I did for several years after the show ended, and I still love them. Of course, there's so much less canon to work with with Luke/Reid, and the fandom is much, much smaller that it's inevitable that things will slow down sooner. We're already seeing it, but...I need more fic, dammit! *g*
