What an incredible weekend... and one that doesn't officially end until tomorrow, as maybe742 is still here! She flew in from Germany, and shares the "longest distance traveled" prize with nerilka24, who came from the UK.

fansee joined us from Philadelphia, sevigny7, not_yet_defined and IJ's outlander from nearby Midwestern states, happier_bunny from right here in Michigan, and my friend Travis (orlith) flew in from California.

The nine of us watched a selection of episodes from all five seasons, then went back and watched a few scenes to critique Justin's blowjob technique analyze their literary and dramatic significance. We talked about the show and although some had not only never met but had never even interacted with each other online, it was incredible how much harmony we had over virtually everything about the show except outlander's bizarre delusion that Brian can dance.

Travis and outlander flew the Brian-lovers' flag high all weekend, and in general acted like the twins separated at birth they apparently are. It was uncanny!

We watched the 150 minutes of fan videos Bunny put together with our darling qafmaniac(present in spirit!), including 12 minutes of just brian and Justin's sex scenes that qafmaniac edited together... gotta love her!!!!!

We consumed vast quantities of ziti and lemon bars and just about every other QAF food bunny and I could stomach come up with. We dragged ourselves off to bed late at night, then some of us got up early, swallowed just enough coffee to sustain life, and headed into the woods to walk Rawley -- who LOVED all the extra "roommates," and especially Maybe and Travis, who he's going to miss most of all.

We recounted old fandom wank and dissected our most beloved bad/crack!fic, with Amish!Justin, blindfolded!escort!Justin and serial!killer!mermaid!Brian being the favorites. We even came up with two exciting fandom projects that you'll see soon!

I can't remember another time I felt so happy and full of warmth, laughter and friendship this weekend. I was there with two of my closest friends, along with women I'd never met before but felt like I'd known forever, as well as some of my favorite people in the world, in fandom and out. It was an extraordinary weekend. I'll never forget it!

We had a lot of fun eating the QAF-themed foods, too! I have photos and some video, which I'll post later after I can get my iPhone to speak to my computer, but for now, I just wanted to let you know it was AAAAAAAHHHHH-MAZING! Thank you to everyone who joined us!

AND LONG LIVE QAF FANDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
