Again, I've elected to roll the current ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
snowflake_challenge prompt into today's open thread, since it's a fun prompting question:
Share a favourite piece of original canon (a show, a specific TV episode, a storyline, a book or series, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much.
I always feel a bit weird doing these, because all my fandoms of the heart are fandoms-of-one, the sorts of things that I'd be lucky to get given as gifts for Yuletide, and they have potentially offputting elements (teenage protagonists, a writing style people will either love or hate, divisive relationship dynamics, and so on). So I can talk about why I love them forever, but assume that no one will take me up on the recommendation, or not be hooked by the same things that first hooked me. A lot of these canons are things that I've loved unstintingly for three decades; they're a part of me — they've seeped into my bones, into the story I tell about myself.
I've written a lot of primers/manifestos/gushing walls of emotion over the years!
( I've gathered a bunch behind the cut )
