idk it's different when you're already told "this is a masterpiece" before anything else instead of reading it and seeing it become a masterpiece before your eyes

I've been in a few fandoms and known a few things "before it was cool" (MILGRAM being a major one -- I was in the fandom since the very beginning, and it only blew up near the end of the second round of three), and it was very different watching the project bloom in front of me as a masterpiece to joining in late, I imagine!
