In your own space, share a favorite piece of original canon (a TV episode, a song, a favorite interview, a book, a scene from a movie, etc) and explain why you love it so much.
Picking one is hard and I guess it's go big or go home, so: Les Miserables. I listened to the musical all the time when I was a little kid and I was totally obsessed from then on. I read an abridged version at seven and the whole tome at eleven, and I've re-read it many times since then. I tend go back to it in difficult times and it really means a lot to me. It's full of wonderful characters that the different adaptations (of varying quality) and eras of fandom have done so many interesting things with, and I guess what really draws me to it is the scope. There's just so much there, and you can spend days unpacking the language of a page or get obsessed with a throwaway mention of a character who never shows up again.
