Well, maybe speaking for myself here, but we like random rl posts and various dorky interests-related posts.

Once a fangirl, always a fangirl *winks*

See...*whispers*...I was a fangirl even before qaf!!! :x :x :x

Eh, happy to be of interest even qaf-less ^__^"

Mwah!

Brace yourself for teh cheesiness... I came for the queer, but I'm staying for the folk :P I'm glad I got to know you through our mutual love of QAF, but I love hearing about your everyday life too, so no defriending!

I hope you put your mad icon skills to use on other subjects... stock icons perhaps? I think you could iconize anything and I'd think it was amazing and gorgeous and snag it :D

Even if you never say another word about QAF, you'll always always ALWAYS be a huge part of the QAF fandom because your icons will be in use for years and years to come.

So no goodbye, just later ;)

Right now I am working on my 'In The Mood For Love' claim :D

Aww, I'm so touched by what you said! I'm glad if I've left a sign on the fandom, and you're right, I'm not disappearing, so who knows, maybe one day I'll find myself back in obsession-mode! Has happened before with other stuff ;)

I'm happy I met you, too...and I love reading about you, so all is well :D

there is nothing to forgive...because you do not owe to us your everlasting participation. some are lifers...but most come and go from fandoms.

and this is hardly a surprise. you have mostly dropped out of fandom for many months now. when you discovered your love of photoshop you got somewhat back into it, because you had found a new form of expression, but even then, you had stopped participating in other realms of fandom beyond the creating of graphics.

of course i won't defriend you ilaria, that would be silly, considering i have friended people who weren't even in fandom. fandom is not requirement of my flist. however, i would understand if you wished to defriend me, since my flist is most frequently devoted to squeeage and qaf love...or mindless memes...or rants...i can see how it might not be very interesting for you anymore, and would not take a offense.

i wish you well, in whatever things come your way, and hope to still see your random posts around here, from time to time.

What I said about de-friending was more directed at those people who I have recently friended thanks to the friending party at coffeeclub...our shared love for qaf was the whole reason we friended each other, so my fear is that now that my qaf obsession has somewhat ceased, they might feel obliged to keep me in their flist even if they have no desire to. I wasn't talking to those people I have now known for more than a year, like you!

And even if *I*'m not taking part to fandom because my interest is not nearly as overwhelming as it once was, qaf in my flist is more than well-accepted and in fact I have no issues at all with you or anyone else squeeing about qaf and doing memes (are memes related to qaf? No...I will be doing memes, too :D).

If my qaf love had turned into qaf hatred, I can see how I'd take myself from all the qaf communities I'm member of and stuff, but as I said, I still love the show! :)

Yeah because if you did I'd have had to come and kill you in a furor :D

I did say 'you can de-friend me if you want', but that does not include some of you and you are definitely one of these somes ^_^

Not free to be free of me :P

(Reply to this) (Parent)

Nothing to forgive sweetie :)

I have no plans to de-friend. I love having you on my f-list and reading about your life and your dorky interests :D

So unless you ban me I plan on sticking around :p

I sometimes think that people get too self-conscious about being "in fandom" and "out of fandom." Just, you know, talk about what you want to, and don't worry about it. I can't imagine you won't continue to make pretty Giastin pictures from time to time, comment on our posts, read fic sometimes, but what matters really is that you just be yourself. I for one adore you.

(Reply to this) (Thread)

You are really too luvely for your own good, Xietta bella mine, ya know.

Be afraid of being too luvely, because too luvely people make me want to squish then dead, until all the inside juices squirt outside and them you won't be so luvely anymore ;(

It's because...each crazy!Ilaria man kills the Xiettes belle mines things he loves...!

...

And...I guess I can leave a comment here and there...make an icon from time to time...xD

Ok, you really bring out the worst in me! *shuts up*

:X

*adures back with hardness*

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

To all of that I say pffft.

*hugs back harder*

(Reply to this) (Parent)

I just want you to be the happiest Ilaria you can be. However you want to be.

And I'll love you endlessly, just like I already do. *kisses you and hugs you tightly*

The End.

(Reply to this)

I'm keeping you friended here too. :) Of course half the time I can't access IJ so you may not notice me either way. :|

(Reply to this)

Ahem. Friends don't dump friends on their asses just because they (sort of) leave fandom.

What I'm trying to say is, I'm not taking you off my flist, even if you bombard me with tons of rl and "dorky interests-related" posts. Truthfully, as much as I adore fandom, I love hearing from/about the people I revel in the love with. So, yeah. You're forgiven. ;)

(Reply to this)

sorry, but I didn't friend you just for the QAF stuff either; you're fun, and funny, and very talented, and I love the random. So I'll be staying unless you chuck me out! *hugs*

(Reply to this)

NOOOO!! How DARE you not be interested in QaF anymore? That's a capital sin! I shall never forgive you. Never! *grins*

Seriously, stopping being silly. You're never getting rid of me. Unless you want to, of course. I want you safe, I want you around for a long time. *hugs*

man, you're fickle like-- like some, um... some fag! D:{
ok ok, in reality I'm not really surprised, although I didn't expect to see it soo soon in my qaf fandom career. In fact, I was hoping to beat you to it! *mumbles*

Still, I'm kinda happy for you in some twisted way.

but you're not gonna stop making graphics whatsoever, are you? You're not gonna drop off the face of internets and get a *gasp* life D: are you? You're not gonna become normal, are you? D: D: DD:

btw, do you even use AIM anymore? I like, installed a new communicator just to catch you there :x what, it was never a secret that I'm a plain boring stalker! um, not that we'd have so much to talk about anyway... but!

(Reply to this) (Thread)

Ooooooooooooh...ç________ç

Once upon a time, there was a girl (me) who was kinda not too normal, and she fell in love with a beeeeeeeaaaaaautifull girl named Amy (the wonderful tigbit for the net!). Since Ilaria and Amy really wanted to be able to lick each other senseless in a more effective, time-consuming way, Amy told Ilaria to install the evol software called 'AIM'.

So Ilaria did, and for a while things were really hot and steamy and full of passion.

THEN, one tragic day...Amy had to leave for France :((((

And Ilaria found no more use for the damn program! So she even forgot the password!

Isn't this a terribly tragic story? D:

But I do still have a program which lets me talk to peoooooopleeeeeeeeeee...and it is...MSN!!!!! Dreadful, dreadful program!

Now, what to do? I start using AIM gain or you start using MSN? Maybe I should be the on to use AIM, right. Since stalkerish!you already went out of her way to get a grab of awesomeful me.

As for qaf...tell you that my addiction to PS helped drag out my obsession, but I have been feeling it less and less for ages now. We met each other in the wee hours of my fixation!!!! D:

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yes, it is indeed a tragically sad fairy tale *wipes nose on a sleeve or something*


I don't use AIM :x ...just gimme the goddamn msn number/username, ok? >:[ I promise not to bother you with "liekzomg its me, rin, rite? how'sitgooiiiiiinnn?????? entertain me, whatchawaitinforz??? D: D:" until I come up with a convo topic, k? You do use that msn sometimes, right? Not like me, logging on once in a russian year? right? right? orz?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm gonna PM you at lj then because I don't want the whole world to know my contact on msn...see...it's actually more linked to my rl than my virtual self *\o/* (no youbetterwiseup, nono)

WAIT FOR EET.
