Dream a little dream...

 
Last night, I had the strangest dream. This is the kind of crazy things that breed when you spend four days reading all the ittsy trails of a F_W Greatest Hit (ah, [journalfen.net profile] thorn_star, how we did not love thee...).

Up here in darling Boston, there was a F_W meetup near school. Being me, pining for fandom related people to meet/know in real life, I skipped class and trotted over to the party.

And oh! What a glorious party it was! There was booze and no one minded that the underage people were, well, underage. There was reminiscing about the craziest wankers, random conversations about whatever, everything that a great party has.

There was also a lot of little oddities. For instance, out of the corner of my eye, people... changed. I was talking to [journalfen.net profile] sepiamagpie and turned away to move on and, for just a moment, he appeared to be one of those black-and-white birds that hang around outside of my kitchen window. [journalfen.net profile] apoplexia walked by; for a moment, I thought he was an older man with wild hair and a moustache. Whenever I caught [journalfen.net profile] backfromspace moving about, right before I recognized who he was and he looked normal, he appeared to have a small "modsquad, baby" floating about his head. [journalfen.net profile] deoridhe looked suspiciously like Jareth for a fleeting moment, [journalfen.net profile] hugsnkisses looked to be more a floating text ("BFF(OMG)") with "I&heart;snackeh" working in a millipede-like-fashion for her legs, [journalfen.net profile] kadath was a black branch that glowed green for one shining moment.

There were a lot of guys in that list, eh? That's because the largest of the F_W oddities was present: every other sentence out of my mouth seemed to be "Wait, you're a guy?!?!"

[journalfen.net profile] eljuno walked by, a giant arm in a cast flickering when my eyes lost focus. "Hey, I'm [journalfen.net profile] eljuno." "Holy crap, you're a guy??"

[journalfen.net profile] bishounenhuntrs paused for a chat, occasionally naught but a broken image link with text as I whipped my head about following people. "I'm [journalfen.net profile] bishounenhuntrs, and you are...?" "Since when are you a guy??"

[journalfen.net profile] wankprophet, the sometimes Gandalf, stopped in front of me. "[journalfen.net profile] wankprophet." "Wait, you're a- Oh, never mind, I knew you had boy-bits."

So, why does F_W have so few guys that I need to have a dream dealing entirely in finding out who was male?

(note: all male's in the dream confirmed this morning by [journalfen.net profile] deoridhe's list.)
