I know that sensation of being between fandoms. For me it came after the Forever Knight mailing list went almost silent and the Mary Renault community drifted elsewhere. I still wrote (and do yet) in those fandoms, and also wrote one-offs as treats in gift exchanges. But I knew that, sooner or later, I would fall madly in love.
You know? That "new fandom" feel. The read-every-story compulsion. The plot that keeps telling itself in your head till you shut it up by writing it down. I knew it would happen. I just didn't know what or when.
For you it was Lorne. I watched both Buffy and Angel, though I've never written in either. I thoroughly enjoyed both, though; and I totally get how meeting Andy Hallett—not just in full make-up but in character!—would get you where it counts.
