Wow! Pol sci!! No wonder you always sound so articulate and just wonderful all the time! I was a bit worried that my question was a bit too personal, but I'm really really happy that you took the time to give such an elaborate answer. You're truly one of my favourite people on attack on titan Twitter!!!! And wish you the very best going forward💕💕💕I'm currently a neuroscience major so my writing skills are subpar😩Im taking a screenshot of your response so that I come back to it whenever I feel like writing!

Haha, thank you! TBH, Poli Sci majors tend to be insufferable, because we’re all there to be politicians and lawyers and the like. 😂 It’s funny, because I ended up not going to law school because I couldn’t stand the narcissism in my field. So your words are kinder than you even know 💕

AH, THAT’S SUCH A COMPLIMENT. I know I’m just a scrub that tweets dumb shit sometimes, but I really am thankful I can make someone’s day a bit brighter. ✨

Don’t speak that way! I feel that the only thing that makes writing “subpar” is the lack of proper spelling or grammar, which are objective things that can be taught/learned. Otherwise, the writing style and substance just isn’t to someone’s tastes. So don’t ever say your writing is subpar (especially as someone as brilliant as you, studying Neuroscience!) If you’re anything like me, being someone who studied something outside of the “arts” and whose brain tends to work in a more logical way, I know delving into creative writing (especially the kind that focuses so heavily on the emotions of characters) can be difficult, but I hope you know that all writing has value — even if it’s writing that doesn’t seem to come as natural to those like us!

Or maybe I’m talking out of my ass, who knows! 🤷🏻‍♀️
