WTF is happening to my fandom?

[ratherastory]

Anyone know what happened to hansons_angel? Is she gone for good, or pulling a Roque and staying away from the internet for a while for RL reasons?

I noticed that earlier this afternoon and promptly emailed mad_server. I'm worried too. Mostly because the fic I posted last night was for her prompt.... And this fandom is making me sad because I feel like I've just joined it and everyone's leaving! *lip wibbles* Iz it me?

But as far as I know, hansons_angel was active last night because when I posted my fic, I was using her comment thread and it was fine...

Let me know as soon as you know. I was just about to post something along these lines but my f-list has like 10 people total and none of them care...

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Huh. Well, okay. Maybe someone will have news.

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

Just heard from mad_server and apparently vie_dangerouse alerted her in a panic too. mad_server emailed hansons_angel and I'll let you know anything if / when I find out...

[vie-dangerouse.livejournal.com]

LOL, alert!girl. That is me. :)

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

:))))))

“Not everyone leaves you,” he pulls Dean's head down, presses his forehead to Dean's, throws all the fierceness and passion left in him into his voice.

“I'm still here.”



*whistles*

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Did you just seriously quote my own fic back at me?

:D

[rainylemons.livejournal.com]

You know I did. LOL

[rainylemons.livejournal.com]

And DAMMIT. I just logged into the other account. No wonder everyone thinks I'm friggin' neurotic.

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Hah. I just posted to tease you about that. :D

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

LOL

Login!Fail, my lovely! You're looking awfully MPD there. ;)

[lobrien0914.livejournal.com]

What fic is that from? I'm having a day of senior moments. I'm sure I've read it, but I'd like to read it again!

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

That would be Why Your Joyous Strains Prolong. :)

[wave-obscura.livejournal.com]

NOOOOOOOO. Hanson's Angel come back and bring your respiratory distress and illness with youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[embroiderama]

Eeep, I hope she's just deleted temporarily and that everything's okay!

[dante-s-hell.livejournal.com]

Oh, noooo. She can't be gone! I just spoke to her about a week (maybe two) ago and though she mentioned that RL had her busy, she didn't say anything about closing shop.

I'm a little distressed. I hope she and her family are okay.

Thanks to those of you who are doing a little detective work. I appreciate it.

[primrose-1.livejournal.com]

WHAT?!? NOO! At least Roque TOLD people what she was doing!

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

And half of us missed Roque's memo.... but at least Roque tried!

[primrose-1.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's the problem with posting your intention, then deleting it :) We were quick to let people know when they did miss it!

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

True... which is why I'm stalking this thread and my email. I'm hoping someone heard something...

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Nooooooooooo. I was just re-reading one of her fics last night and basking in the sick!Dean awesomeness. I hope she's okay.

[de-nugis.livejournal.com]

I hope she's OK. Eep, what if h/c karma is getting h/c authors, one after another? I might go write a fic in which Sam and Dean wake up feeling particularly well and chipper, go for a brisk run, and then have a refreshing nap. Just in case.

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

I'd appreciate that... LOL! Mostly because I wrote this fic: An Attempt To Tip The Scales (http://nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com/8671.html) and promptly came down with the exact cold I gave Dean just prior to posting it. Maybe if all of us wrote fics where the boys are hale, healthy, and happy, the H/C Karma Curse will go away?

[wave-obscura.livejournal.com]

Noooooo healthy!boys nooooooo. Oh my heart.

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

I know... it makes my own H/C heart just shudder thinking about it... But maybe? And I'm actually writing a fic where both guys are healthy. And it's WEIRD AND UNNATURAL.

[greeneyes-fan.livejournal.com]

What happens if you do to Sam and Dean what already happened to you? Does it apply then?

[wave-obscura.livejournal.com]

If you do what has already happened to you, h/c karma inflicts you with something totally unrelated but poetic in it's horribleness. For example, I out of nowhere developed an allergy to HAIR DYE, of all things, and had beachball face for almost a week. And then one of my eyes swelled shut.

HOWEVER, we should all just do it anyway and refuse to be thwarted. GIVE ME BEACHBALL HEAD OVER HEALTHY!BOYS ANY DAY!

[greeneyes-fan.livejournal.com]

Hair dye, OMG. I had a reaction to hair conditioner once, and that was pretty bad too. Washcloth dipped in cool water was the only thing that helped. (What color was your hair, anyway?)

OK. I will defy the curse. I will write 1000 words of Winchester torture today, and another 1000 tomorrow. Not sure which story I'm going to work on, but I will.

[jesseofthenorth.livejournal.com]

I was just over there a couple of days ago enjoying how mean she is! WTF?
News, people. Anyone know anything yet?
Anyone?

[sagaluthien.livejournal.com]

I had another friend dissapeare over night and what seemed to be the thing for her was that her account was purged. Hopefully this isn't the case here.

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Purging usually happens after 30 days, right? hansons_angel was around 28 hours ago, so we still have a window of opportunity...

Also, S&A FTW! *hearts your icon*

[mad-server.livejournal.com]

She's alive. She's OK but I guess having fandom sadtimes. But alive! And healthy and yes.

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm glad she's okay.

Too bad she left, but I guess if that's what she needs to do, then we'll all have to live with it.

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the mass memo. Although I'm very sad and bummed she left. Iz she gone for good? *wibbles*

[dante-s-hell.livejournal.com]

Hi!

Maybe you could let her know that we all miss her?

Thanks!

[mad-server.livejournal.com]

Yup, all over it.

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

YAY! Thanks!

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Yay, thanks for the info!

I totally get that, though I hope she feels better about things and comes back at some point. She's such a nice, genuine presence to have in fandom, plus I already miss her writing like crazy.

[vie-dangerouse.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh me too! I was saving her latest story for a day when I needed some cheering up (um, because nothing cheers me up like angsty, sick boys I guess). I hope she comes back soon!

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

Her latest story was awesome too! I respect her choice, but I'm so sad about this. I share so many of my h/c likes with her, and I love her writing besides that as well, and I really do miss it a ton already.

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

It's too bad. I would have hoped that, even if she was leaving fandom, she would have left her stories posted so people could still read them.

Oh well.

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

Aw man.... this is one sad way to begin the new year....

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

Third this sentiment... And I'm with Alert!Girl *points to vie_dangerouse* Nothing cheers me up like her permanently respiratory-messed-up Dean and sick, angsty boys...

hansons angel

[krist24601.livejournal.com]

I hope she is back. Are her stories archived/saved anywhere?
I love her writing.

Re: hansons angel

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

I don't think they are archived, alas.

Re: hansons angel

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

I don't think they are... she does have a FF.Net account but it's apparently never been used. And your tear icon is too perfect for this thread and your comment! *laughs*

Re: hansons angel

[maypoles.livejournal.com]

They're gone from her ff.net account as well; I just checked. I think I'm going through sick!Dean withdrawal.

Re: hansons angel

[elenies-mind.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry to read this, i was wondering what happened to her too.

I don't know if she would be oK with this but i have 8 of her fics saved on my pc (I have a word document copy of everything i read, just in case people delete the stories i like!) so if anyone is interested....send me a Pm.

UPDATE!!!

[nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com]

hansons_angel is back but only for this week. Apparently, she's giving us a chance to grab her fics and save them but at the end of the week she's going to be deleting the journal for good.
