I had no idea who Emrys was when I started reading “Misethere” and “Blooded Crown” and that didn’t matter at all. Sublime storytelling.
Some of the canon events for Emrys are really strange, like the time he spent as a hedgehog. Yeah. You read that right. Hedgehog. I find I’m better off in the world(s) created by fanwriters.
You’re right, canon probably has no real bearing on being able to appreciate those stories. I honestly wish I, as a fanfic author, were better about that– a lot of my work depends heavily on having consumed the source material. Not all of it, but. I’ve definitely read fic for more things than I’ve ever consumed the canon of.
Not like you can figure out what’s going on watching the series either.
Well, I’ll read it at some point, likely. I’m not really looking for any kind of fandom to hyperfixate on, but I really do like to have at least something I’m interested in fannishly so I can have some investment in the random shit scrolling by on Tumblr. Lemme tell you, it’s a bummer that podcasts are entirely inaccessible to me, categorically, because there’s tons of content about them, but they’re a giant Nope.
