Anne McCaffrey has died.

Her books had a lot of problematic elements to them, and I will never deny that.

Still, they formed the core of my adolescence, and I will never not love her for how she treated the military in her books — neither wholly good nor wholly evil, but the sum of the people within.

RIP, Dragonlady.

Holy crap. Pern was my first fandom, my first online RP experience, my first...fuck, almost everything fan-related. I was so proud of my lil' dragons.

Hell, one of those dragons gave me the LJ handle I've been using for ten years. Says something, right there. RIP.
