It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since that episode. Think about that 10 years. Ten years ago we didn’t have iPhones. Twitter. Instagram. Tumblr. Facebook was a baby.
Ten years is a long time. Hell in my own life I was laid off from work, got a new job, and then rehired back at my old one.
Ten years of stories, art, videos, drama, attempted coups, and headdesking. No one will forget the Jim West debate. The ‘Driving off on a mustang’. The Rodney is a virgin and Shep a Confederate. *if you don’t know these things I’m not sure if you’re lucky or missed out*
When rumors hit that Rory was leaving CSI: Miami I was like you got to be kidding me – I watched the show because of him. When snippets and info got out of how they were removing the character … I just got pissed.
Irony I was on vacation (with the now ex) and wasn’t home when the episode aired. I had to wait a week! A WEEK! Before I could sit down and watch it, though part of me didn’t want to – I already knew the ending. When we got home the Satellite Dish blew over in a windstorm – ex was bitching … me was like I don’t really give a fuck – just make sure Miami was recorded. Luckily the dish blew over after premier of CSI – obviously it loved me. Ex on the other hand didn’t get his shows recorded *evil smirk*
Finally ex was at work. I sat down grabbed the tissues and proceeded to ball my eyes out and cursed the writers. I had started writing fanfiction before that just barely a few things here and there… some that will never see the light of day EVER! I hadn’t quite written slash (oh read it but not quite wrote it). So first fix-it story was Gen *and yes you can find that story in The General’s Office – along with all the others*. Then I said fuck it and wrote the slash… a story here, story there… and then it was born.
Yep.
Sylum.
How that particular bunny changed my life is a whole different blog post. Today we’re celebrating … ish the 10th Anniversary of Lost Son. There I said it… that Episode.
This is the unofficial kick off of the 10th Anniversary of Sylum – think of it as the pre-game events. Starting next year we’ll be doing a lot for the 10th Anniversary – including 10th Anniversary Editions of Clan War. Artwork. Vids. Music. Trivia. Q&A … the list goes on.
Today we showcase: 10th Anniversary – Lost Son Video.
*hands out tissues*
Note – sit through the whole thing it’s worth it!
2015 is going to be a busy year!
Oh you have no idea … eyes bunnies running around and projects already in the works
God, I love Sylum. Thank you soooo much for the experience of such a world. 😀
Thank you. I still can’t believe it’s been 10 years.

I can’t believe it has been 10 yrs. since this episode of CSI Miami aired. I watched the episode Lost Son when it first aired and I cried during the funeral scene. I really enjoy being apart of Sylum. Sylum Clan is awesome!
Thank you! It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years!! Horatios face through the funeral breaks your heart
Dear BJ and all the other writers and artists.
Thank you for 10 great years of wonderful stories and art . May the bunnies keep you on your toes and working for the next 10 years.
The bunnies will sure be keeping us active for years to come
Thank you! Can’t wait for the rest. Well obviously I can wait, but, I am really excited for the new/revised stories and Wiki!
I hated it when Speed was killed. It was hard watching that one. So glad you guys fixed the error it an awesome way. I love reading the stories and the art work is fantastic, and the videos, I am amazed!! So glad you are here and plan on staying. I never want to say good-bye!!!
