Thamiris

[slashy]

I just learned through sidewinder that thamiris lost her battle with cancer. I don't know the exact date or the details, but I do know that I'll miss her. Even if I had lost touch with her after I left her ksares yahoo groups list (formerly ksmithares), she was one of KS' biggest fans, and we found much common ground because of that.

Tham... I'll remember fondly our chats with the rest of the crew in mIRC. Thank you for beta'ing some of my works, they were so muc better because of you.

And may you be now with KS, and in peace.

My first thought upon hearing the news was just thinking of KS meeting her, wherever they both now are, and making sure to shower her with all of the love and delicious attentions she deserves.

*sigh* Far too many of our brightest stars are gone...

Far too many of our brightest stars are gone...

Oh so true.

But, she was still fairly young, right? I remember her not being more than 30ish when I was in ksares.

I hope she's at peace and not in any pain now.

She was only 41 :(

I can't believe that a couple month's ago I was looking through my Y!G's, re-joined ksares but left since there wasn't much activity to speak of. I was hoping to say to the old crew, but didn't do anything. I did search for her on lj once, but I probably wrote her name wrong 'cause I didn't find her.

Now I feel I should have been more insistent on finding her, at least if only to say hi.

*hugs very tight*

I can't believe this, JB. I still can't believe this. I'm so so so sad about this. This is the first person in the net that I've actually called a friend that died, and I hadn't talked to her in ages, didn't even know about her lj, and never was her cancer mentioned in the fandom at all!!!

She was just 41 fucking years old. That isn't fair! Such a wonderful person....

*hugs*

That's horrible... *hugs tight* I'm sorry hun.

[joymaro.livejournal.com]

*hugs* though she'll be missed, I like the idea of her being with KS.

[joymaro.livejournal.com]

Me too, me too... I know she's having a blast.

I'm sorry for your loss sweetie. I must admit i didn't know her but seen a few of these popping up on livejournal and from what's on the front page she seemed like a lovely person. *hugs*

She was, very much so. Not only the creator of the biggest Kevin Smith slash list, she was a wonderful writer, beta, fb'er, friend.

What? I...this is what I get for not reading flists for long periods of time. I just...oh my god. I didn't know. I didn't I never had a clue. We hadn't talked much over the past year or so and I left an entry in her LJ just a few days ago. I feel so fucking horrible now! How could I not have known! She was my first friend in this fandom oh god how could this have happened! I never got to wish her well or say goodbye and I just can't believe this. How come I just never knew?

I'm so sorry, Erin. I thought you knew. But I'm sure she's in a much better place now.

*hugs again*

Everyone thought I did, and I should have known. I've been so oblivious these past few months. That's not going to happen again. I just wish I'd pulled my head out of the sand long enough to write her that letter I'd been thinking about for a long time. Maybe we could've talked more. There's a whole lot of maybes and might have beens.

I like to think that you, and others who've said it, are right, that she's somewhere better now, maybe hanging out with Kevin Smith. That's how I'm thinking of her.

[joymaro.livejournal.com]

That's the thing, we get so involved on the might-have-beens and could-have-dones, that we forget that what we did when we did do it was of vast importance, and that no matter what we believe we could have done diferently, everything happens the way God (or the Highest Power, if you rather) intends it to happen.

I do believe that a good person like her is at peace, be it hanging out with KS or the vast tranquility of rest.

*hugs*

Thank you. What you're saying is really helping. Thanks so much.

*hugs* back.

[joymaro.livejournal.com]

Always here for you, Erin. I'm glad it helps.
