In my personal experience, there is nothing more annoying and lonely than discovering something wonderful... and not being able to share it with anyone.

As some of you may know, I recently dove headfirst into the Homestuck fandom, and found it wonderfully humorous and... immature xD It uses the sort of humor that I understand and communicate well with. My language if you will 8D

While I do participate a little in the Homestuck sub-reddit page, I still feel very left out in this fandom D8 Only myself and one of my close friends actually read the comic, and she's not even done with the damn thing yet XD There is another group of people who read it... though, they're sophomores, and really don't want to socialize with us underclassmen I guess, I dunno.

I live in an area where there are very few Homestuckers. Why does that matter? Well, for a start, there are no meetups close to me, further cutting me off from the people of the fandom. I would love to do some cosplay at a meetup *o* That would be amazing. It also means, however, that there is a very slim chance that I am able to meet others of my species D8

This makes my existence in the fandom feel very, very, very lonely ._.

MLP, however, is a whole other matter... it seems that at least one out of every ten assholes in my school watches it XD There are about three hundred of us in the school in total... you do the math. To be short, the MLP fandom is not unheard of, which makes it easier for me to communicate with others. Trust me, I have no problem in finding people to discuss the show with XD

It's kind of like how I felt when I started getting good at art. I knew no one else who drew, and it made me the odd man (or in my case, girl) out. Maybe with time, I'll be able to find myself a group of Homestuck fans that I can get along with 8D Who knows, I might even be able to go to a meet some time, even if I have to drive for ten hours to do so XD

Sorry for the lack of gifs today D8 My brain is just fried from all the algebra I just did for homework ._.
