hi, i originally debated coming on your retrospring, but i just read itlagt and wbb in THREE DAYS and sometimes it was very overwhelming and sad but i pushed through and omg i cannot believe they’re getting married :(( your world building is honestly amazing and that characterisation???? as a poly person myself i’m in love with this story idk. can i ask where you got so much inspiration? amsbwjsb and like, the attention to detail and staying true to the identities u gave them :( idk i’m just very sentimental to have read something so immensely well written on polyamory, queer platonicism, and being aroace. thank you aria

(sorry for rambling i hope this is well worded)

please don’t apologize 😭 this message is SO sweet and really made my day and!! THREE DAYS 😭 that’s sooooo much (like 200k words to be exact) and it makes me really happy/proud that you liked the story enough to push through so quickly 🥹 even though i haven’t had the time i wish to work on wwb lately, it is so so so important to me for so many reasons and to have anyone love it or relate to it means the world to me 🥹

as for specific inspiration—wwb marknomin each hold very specific parts of me and my experiences and feelings, and writing their story the way i have has been a way for me to vent and explore and dig into my own brain. when i started it, i wanted to use it mostly as an opportunity to write real characters with real flaws and real conflict, because i feel like before, i’ve always taken the easy way out of those things in my fics, and then it just. became so personal 😭 idk i could go on about this for a while, but that’s the vague-ish answer at least 🥹

thank you so much for reading 🩵🩵
