The FR void for me has been replaced with drawing FR art, thinking of character personalities, devolving my stream chats into FR talk with friends (subsequently turning into a Show & Tell with everyone and their dragons).

I am cautious about the attraction to fandom being higher then important stuff, but dang, it is a lot of FUN. :D

(Re fic-writing: I love stumbling into someones dragon and finding their info page containing a story, it is seriously the best prize for having a closer look).
