I got into the Avatar fandom because I'm a dweeb. And I felt the immense need to write. And because there were some nice people in it.
But the way the fans tear each other's heads off about who-gets-with-who is just stupid. It's always stupid. Maybe I OTP A/B, but I don't give a shit if someone else OTPs A/C, A/D, or whatever strikes their fancy. You know, the ol' leave me to my devices, I'll leave you to yours? Live and let live? Et cetera?
That just seems to be too hard a concept for most of fandom to grasp. :( I wish it wasn't so.
