bookwyrmlingYou know, if I've learned one thing about myself over the years, it is that I have an obsessive personality. When I find something I like, I can become way too wrapped up in it and spend all my free time focusing on that one thing.
If I've learned another thing about myself over the years, it is that I have a flighty temperament. No matter how obsessed I can be with something, no matter how much pleasure or enjoyment I take out of it, when I find something else I jump ship to my new obsession almost instantly and feel no regret over what I left behind.
Sometimes I circle back around to the previous obsessions.
Sometimes I do not.
I've learned this last week that, apparently, TeniPuri is something that catches and pulls me back hard.
It must be the Tezuka Zone.
And the fact that, with a knee about as healed as it will ever get, I've picked up tennis again -- or, well, training to get back in shape for it, at least.
And the fact that Wimbledon is going on right now. *waves a Federer flag*
This isn't the first time this fandom has done this. Back in college I went through TeniPuri phases two or three times. Once again after I graduated, but it's been years since I'd really thought about it. I started rewatching the anime three weeks ago. The fanfiction plot bunnies -- of which I hadn't had a single one for YEARS -- have been bouncing around in my head ever since. I tried fighting them off, at first, as I do plenty of other writing elsewhere, now, and really should be focusing on that, but all it did was kill my muse for anything else, as well.
So might as well stop fighting it, I figure.
Which means, for the time-being, I'm back and writing. Not sure how long this will last, but I'm going to enjoy it for the time-being. Hopefully any readers I have enjoy it, as well.
