oh, for friends who sing your song just 'cause it's in your head

silentfire is in town until Wednesday. She's lovely, into fandom, have known her since the sixth grade.

She tolerates my incessant and often high-pitched popslash babble because she loves me. Which I can live with. God knows I'm not at a loss as to people to squee along.

She rolled her eyes at the Rent poster. She made pained noises when I shower her my spankin' spiffed copy of Justified. She remained unaffected by my pretty pictures.

We eventually got around to rooting for snacks. I had just stocked up on the *NSYNC fruit snacks so as a joke I told her to catch and tossed one over.

She caught.
She gave me a look.
She inquired as to would they entail gummy likenesses.
I reassured.
She opened.

"Oh, there are hearts."
"Yeah, they have their names on them."
"Cool. Hm, I got Chris. Is that good?"
"Well, we like him with Lance..."
"What's this one, I can't make it out."
"That's... yes, that's Lance."
"Oh."

And then she took the two hearts, mushed them together name-first and ate them in one bite. Then smiled at me.

*sniffle*

Love. Just, love.

Likenesses would've been overstepping the bounds of good taste.

Aaaaw. ::warm fuzzy feelings:: I do appreciate that, and more than you know. Because this fandom, more than any other I've been in (and I think really more than anything I've ever been a fan of) makes me happier than Christmas. There's something not quite right in that scenario I'm sure, but so it goes.
