Told a friend I'd been looking at old recs, and a lot of the stories are gone. Told her about a particular author I'd have loved to be able to tell how meaningful her work was to me, who had disappeared from lj and from fandom.
.
Friend: Perhaps she started publishing, and is denying her past in porn?
Me *snort*: Well, then how have I not stumbled upon any secret society for her new stuff? I'd want to read it. Even if it wasn't porn.
Friend: Perhaps she died?
Me (horrified): I doubt it! so many people left, and not even to other fandoms, they're just gone. I don't understand it. But I doubt they all died.
Friend: Oh no! Someone is taking you guys out, one by one!
Me: The rival secret society!
