How did I just find out that John Flanagan died. And on the 7th of February. To lymphoma. He was the author of what was my favorite book series for several years in my life. I remember daydreaming characters and Ranger's Apprentice fanfiction in my head, using it as a base for my daydreaming world until it evolved more from other fandoms and fanfictions. With many aus. Even now some characters feel the same but completely different, and showing signs of how that old world used to look. Still heavily influenced by the Ranger's Apprentice series. This has been one of the most amazing fandoms I have ever been in with some of the best fanfiction I have ever read. I am getting off track. And article I found thanks to @ranger-melany stated that, "His final words to his wife were typically understated but poignant, some might say, straight out of the Halt playbook: “It’s really good to see you.”"
Fly high John. I feel like I missed my chance meeting you at some point, now I'll never get that chance.
