i am excited for the animated pilot, and being a newer (got into hs about 2 years ago) fan having other newer fans around will be compared to everyone being hella older than me, but im also worried about a sudden flood of new people because of the personal, selfish reason that i just dont want things to change, thanks to homestuck being a kind of fandom oasis for me (alive enough to be rather active, dead enough to not be overwhelmingly big)
