End of Chlollie thoughts...

[calie15]

So over the past six months I've just felt this inevitable end, of Chlollie I mean. I need a muse to work, and when the show doesn't go on, well I'll lose the muse. So I know, within a year, the muse will be gone and I'll stop writing for Chlollie. At least that is how it is for me.

Now I'm just getting sentimental...I've been writing fanfiction since I was about 15, I'm 28 now. But overall, Chlollie is by far the most important to me.

Writing isn't only the hobbie, as I told Fickery the other day, being a Chlollie fan is a hobby.

I'm really grateful for all the writing I've been able to do for this fandom. I've had so much fun and talked to so many people.

Gen, was my inspiration from the beginning when I first started digging in, before I came to LJ and has still been there for me, years later.

From there I met two really good friends...Sly and Lucy. When talking to yall it wasn't just talking about Chlollie or Smallville but real life and I remember having bad days where I may have had a drunken rampage and you two listened. And then you listened to when I needed help.

Sly, I know you heard a lot of my craziness...we talked like long lost BFF's.

Lucy, thanks for editing all of my crap and being there to bounce my ideas off of, even though half the time we didn't agree. :P But I love that about you, we could tell each other we didn't like the others idea and it was okay. We're two old fanfic writers on a porch.

Corina, you are to nice for your own good, like sugar that is too sweet. :P And I mean that in a good way lol. Thanks for editing my fics and I'm so glad you like Dean and Jo. To bad I jumped onto the fandom to late.

Claudia (kc_2009), thank you so much for making so many great banners for me. Whether they were for awards or just for myself you never complained and they were always beautiful. I keep telling you I owe you a fic. Give me a plot.

Juliete (geekorunique) I feel like I'm bitching to my twin. When we disagree, please let me know, because it will be a miracle.

Kayla, I love fangirling with you. And I LOVE your pictures. I swear to god if we lived near each other we would be a bunch of stalkers. :)

Fickery, we don't chat much, but somehow I think we are pretty much alike and have fun. Maybe it's because you like writing while drinking wine :P And you are just as bitch as me.

Those are only a few of the people that have come to be important to me....but being apart of the Chlollie fandom is like being apart of a family. So the fact that I know everyone is going to lose interest eventually makes me sad. I can't imagine finding another fandom I am as involved with as this one. *sigh*

Anyway, to being sentimental again....For shits and giggles I decided to post some pictures from my actual real life for the hell of it. The first picture is of me, Liane, and my husband, Justin.

The second is me and my son.

I love all of yall, and I swear when I die I'll get engraved on my tombstone 'Chlollie Endgame' :P Or at the very least get it tattooed on my ass so it's huge when I get old. :)

Your hubby's name is Justin! :D Hee. And OMG, could all of you be any cuter? What an adorable family.

I'm sure people will drift away eventually, and people will eventually stop writing and creating fanart and vids. I see it in most fandoms, even the ones with real staying power. But I hope everyone will stick around at least through the summer, because we deserve one big, last, several-months celebration and blowout. We deserve one huge-ass, extended party.

And hey, we can always talk about shopping and shoes and wine. I'm never going to lose interest in those. ;) ♥ ♥ ♥

You family is adorable and what a coincidence that your husband's name is Justin.

I hope this would not mean that you are withdrawing from the fandom. We are far from over,though that would be in a few months in reality. I have a feeling that Chloe would return in the final episode so we could have more Chlollie goodness.

I would just like to tell you that you were one of the few fanfiction writers in this fandom that i followed. When i joined the wagon last year, i gotta say that your Love Over Time Universe was the first fic I have read and fallen in love. I hope that though we may experience withdrawal, you would still continue to write Chlollie stories.

First of all: you are GORGEOUS and your peeps are GORGEOUS! Love the way you're clutching your hubby in the first pic like, *back off, bitches, this hunk is MIIIIIINE!* LOL!!! And your little boy has the cutest, cheekiest smile ever. He looks like YOU, bless him! :-)

Oh, honey. Are you sure? I thought perhaps with the sword of CANON no longer hanging over our heads, we'd be able to write more freely and be more open to ideas! :-(

It'll be heartbreaking to not see you around her once the show goes off the air. Be sure to stay in touch, okay? I'm sure there are loads of us planning to keep Chlollie alive long after the show disappears from our screens, so don't be a stranger to the Com - not when you've put so much into it! :-)

*hugs*

...I want a husband named Justin!...no I'm lying the thought of a husband right now makes me want to run to Chile and change my name LMAO...

It does sort of feel like the end of an era doesn't it? You know, I wouldn't be so sure about fandom dying down though, I mean look at BTVS...That show has been off for YEARS and fandom is still going pretty strong for it.

So I suppose you never know. And Calie my love it's never too late to join the Dean/Jo bandwagon...I recently just got my muse back for the two and as soon as I finish up the Chlollie stories I have in Progress (which shouldn't take long) I plan to finally finish the series I started last year. There's one more story after 'Always Comes Back' so hopefully you'll be around for it.

I adore that you think I'm sweet *grins* and thanks for always letting me bounce ideas off you when the need arose. I'm glad we met here and you have my AIM and Email, so don't ever hesitate to get in touch with me. This isn't the end!!! HAHAAH :) *hugs* ♥ you

Ohh!! We really are the cranky old ladies on the fanfic front porch, and for that I will always be grateful. I can't imagine fandom without you in it.

We bicker, but *usually* in a good way. I value so much that we can completely disagree and still be perfectly fine with each other.

I too, am feeling the pangs of the imposing future. I've tried to figure out if there's another fandom I could start into, but I've learned... I don't usually pick the fandom, the fandom usually picks me. Out of the myriad of shows that I watch, SV is the only one that really revved my writer's engine. Now whether that's because it's inspiring, or just because I feel the need to fix their storylines I'm not entirely sure.

You are very close to my heart, Calie girl. I know I haven't been around much lately, but don't ever doubt that for a second! You and I need a last hurrah or two before our muses abandon us entirely.

I had to giggle when I saw your husband's name is Justin :D

It's so nice to put a name and face to a virtual name. You've got a lovely family. ;)

Chlollie FTW! I hope they don't mess with it. It's gold right now.

Your husband name is Justin, what a coincidence! You have a really beautiful family, your son is so cute!

When I started reading this post I remembered about something, I think it was with you I talked about, how I thought that in one year, everyone would be gone. And you said I was being too positive, it would be just six months.

Hahaha, that's exactly how I feel when I'm talking to you!
And it's hard for me to find people who have the same opinions as I do and don't think I'm a nasty bitch. LOL

And you're one of the best people I met because of this crazy fandom. And I really hope you stick around for a while.

I just wanted to say that I am one of those Chlollie fans who doesn't have much to say but knows great writing and great staying power of fandoms...I have loved every one of your stories and it is sad that when Smallville ends so will the Chlollie muses, well some will end. I will stick around and greedily read about dust bunnies if you choose to write about them, that is how muchI love your stories..Anyway, Chlollie will live on in DVD form for me and hopefully you too. I am sad to see the end of our couple but I have the satisfaction to know that they are together in my fandom...

Gah! I'm such a doofus, that I never saw this entry until you mentioned it in the other post.. lol

Beautiful family!

I know exactly how you're feeling. I'm happy to be a part of it, and to have met so many wonderful people through fandom. Yeah, fandom can suck sometimes, but then there's us amazing Chlolliers, who are so much more. I'm so glad to have "met" you here. *hugs*
