in a handbasket

So Avatar: The Last Airbender fandom went a little crazy today.

First, two episodes that weren't due out until July got leaked via DVD.

Second, some jerk visited at least 20 ATLA communities and spammed them with an open spoiler post that lists everything you don't want to hear.

Third, the episodes are available online and it's going to make spoiler-avoidance and spoiler-management into a new kind of hellish dance. It also gives me a headache because I really wish I could see them on tv instead, and avoiding full episodes for 2 months is going to be heinously difficult. Not in terms of temptation... I'm pretty resistant and can ignore stuff for a long time. ::coughFurubacough:: But it'll be hard to avoid other people's discussions and icons and so forth. I don't even know how I'm going to avoid the icons for two months, short of never visiting anything anywhere.

I was planning to enjoy that NYComicCon trailer for months... now I can't even speculate properly.

However, I did read [livejournal.com profile] fandomme's little Z/K future AU married smut fic and that somehow cheered me up.

Time to go to bed, I think. Good night all! Maybe this will all go away in the morning.


EDIT: Shit, I can't even look at my DevArt alerts without being spoiled! HOW DO PEOPLE DRAW LINE-ART SO FAST?

Give iiiiiin. :D It'll be better than waiting and getting spoiled to hell before you see it on TV.

I've been spoiled for a few major things thanks to the jerk mentioned above. I'm trying not to think about it.

I can keep my brain clear until the DVDs come out in may, if they really do. Then at least I can rent it.

You can rent it on May 6th--"The Boiling Rock", that is.

Try friending her... all her posts are about Z/K fanfic so it's a good deal.

Oh, man. That jerk. If I was going to being visiting [livejournal.com profile] avatar_fans I'm certainly not going to know.

Is [livejournal.com profile] katara_zuko clean, now?

And please, can we have a party and lynch him? I'll bring marshmellows.

*hugs*

As a whistle!

I deleted the offending post around 9:30 last night and at the moment entries are mod-approved only, so no danger except the official spoiler thread.

That is awesome, and one of the many, many reasons I love that you mod that comm.
