You know...

That this fandom has taken its toll on your brain when you think it's perfectly normal to sit in Bertucci's, eating lobster ravioli and chatting about RPS Post Apocalyptic fic plotlines.

Go team us.

Can I just say that we got some really "special" looks from people? Yeah. Somehow, "so it has a three day incubation and kills in 8 hours?" and "Yeah, Japan is totally fucked. All those people, so close together? They'll be picking up bloated bodies out of the streets for years" seems to make people look at you oddly.

Ah, well, too bad, so sad for them. *grin*

There's a restaurant here that's been deemed the Official Fandom Gathering Place. It's very trendy and hip (I can fake the hipness for about an hour, before I revert to soccer mom mode) and we have scared several tables to death with the fannish discussions. There's a long and infamously convoluted story in popslash that got discussed in excrutiating detail one night and I swear the table of painfully self-conscious women next to us skipped out on dessert because they overheard a little too much. =)

That's just when you know you've done your job as fen. *laugh* I'm pretty sure we've driven a couple people out in the past. Probably with the Daddycest, though. *grin*

Would that be ::coughcoughLivingcoughcough:: by any chance? If so, I've had conversations like that...

It's so much fun to scare the "normal" people.

Hee. But of course. We weren't trying to scared them--2 of us were trying to summarize the *cough*plot*cough* for the third fan at the table, and it sounds even *more* cracked out when you're just hitting the high points.
