this is gonna be suuuper mega random but butween the olympics and 2 recent kdramas with swimming scenes, i've been thinking/reminiscing about your old jjp fic "sink or swim" and more specifically about jy's struggles with anxiety and self-acceptance, which i kinda relate(d?) to. so thank you for sharing that, and for that final line about it being ok to just float and be. big fan of your writing and storytelling!! <3

omg ahh that is so sweet, thank you so much for reading and still thinking about that fic all these years later, I really appreciate it. that was a fic that I put a lot of myself and my experiences (emotional rather than swimming-related...) into, so it really means a lot that you've connected to it so much. I know I've deleted the fic due to issues I had with the fandom, but I reskinned it into a tgcf fic (https://archiveofourown.org/works/35748043/chapters/89140294) if you ever want to revisit it, feel free to c&p and replace the names if you wish (just for your own purposes of course, not to share widely)! thank you for the message anw this is super sweet <3
