Once upon a time, in the year 1983, there lived a young dreamer named Louis in a small neighboorhood of Boston in the United States. At just 16 years old, Louis's heart was filled with a boundless love for the stars and the adventures that awaited within them. He often wandered the streets of his quiet Midwestern town, his mind lost in distant galaxies and faraway lands.
One day, as fate would have it, Louis during an late walk stumbled upon the small cinema of his neighboorhood. The posters outside promised a tale unlike any he had ever seen—a story of ships that sailed the cosmos and treasures hidden among the stars. The film was called "Treasure Planet" Drawn by the allure of adventure and intrigued by the publicity he saw on tv, Louis bought a ticket and took a seat in the near-full theater even by that last midnight session.
As the film began, Louis was instantly captivated. The screen came alive with wonders—a universe with an unique esthetic where ships soared through the vastness of space. But what truly enchanted him was the character of Captain Amelia, a noble and fearless feline woman who commanded her ship with grace and unwavering courage. Her sharp mind, her elegance,her beauty and her daring spirit left Louis in awe. She was unlike any character he had ever encountered, a true heroine who stirred his imagination like nothing before.
From that day on, Louis's heart belonged to Captain Amelia Smollett. He returned to the cinema time and time again, watching the film over and over until every line, every scene was engraved into his memory. At home, he filled notebooks with sketches and stories of the Captain, envisioning new adventures and uncharted worlds for her to explore.
But Louis's love for Captain Amelia could not be contained within the pages of his notebooks. In those early days of the Internet, when the world was just beginning to connect through wires and screens, Louis discovered others who shared his passion for characters that were both human and animal, creatures who lived between worlds. He found a small community of dreamers like himself, scattered across the country, each with their own tales to tell.
Under the name "AmeliaLover83," Louis became a storyteller, sharing his art and stories with those who understood the magic of these characters. Inspired by Captain Amelia, he encouraged others to create, to imagine, and to anthropomorphic beings who captured their hearts.
As their numbers grew, Louis and his newfound friends decided to create a space of their own, a place where they could gather and share their love for anthropomorphic characters without boundaries. And so, they built the first online community dedicated to these characters"alt.fan.furry", the very first furry website. It became a sanctuary for fans, a digital gathering place where stories were told, art was shared, and friendships were forged.
"alt.fan.furry "quickly became the heart of the newborn furry fandom, a thriving community where people from all walks of life came together to celebrate their love for characters that walked the line between animal and human. Captain Amelia, the character who had sparked it all, remained an icon within the community, her image a reminder of the power of imagination and the bonds it could create.
Years passed, and Louis grew from a young dreamer into an adult. He could never have known that his love for a fictional captain would spark a movement that would span the nation and eventually the world. But wherever the community gathered, Captain Amelia remained at its heart, a symbol of what could be created when imagination knew no bounds, when worlds collided, and when dreams took flight among the stars.
And so, the tale of Louis and the Captain of the Stars was passed down from fan to fan, a legend of how one boy's passion in a small American neighbooorhood gave birth to "alt.fan.furry" and a new world of stories, a world where reality and fantasy danced together in the light of distant nebulas.
I just find verry funny the idea of lucasfilm starting that community a decade sooner and realy realy want to give a boost to this movie.
