Helloooo! Just wanted to stop by and say that I absolutely love your fics ❤️ the story telling you build up on is absolutely incredible and I can't even fathom the amount of work you put into each one of them, especially the longer ones!! I noticed you mention there being discourse of bottom ynjn in one of your recent fics. I used to be an avid btm ynjn writer for bmjn and its still one of my favourite sex dynamics in the bmjn ship. Ive deleted all my works about one or two years ago, but it makes me so happy to see that there are more authors who are writing the dynamic and so well too!! That's not to say that you should only write this trope (I mean if you do that's great too) but your writing is really what adds a sparkle to the bmjn ao3 tag. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, I look forward to rereading ur fics everyday ❤️❤️❤️

hi omg i dont know if youre on twt or are here straight from ao3 so idk if you'll see my response to you but in hopes you somehow do...

im actually in tears right now bc i genuinely needed to hear this today 💕 ive been contemplating deleting everything too for a while now, tbh. today was one of those days that i really struggled to find reasons not to, so reading your message has made me so so happy im a bit overwhelmed. ive been a bit sensitive and self conscious about everything i post these days >< to hear you enjoy my stories so much you want to reread them makes me 🥹 so so happy. grateful, too. i hope i dont sound pretentious or something when i say that the best thing i can ever hear is that the work i put into my works is seen >< you said you used to write for bmjn (i hope i had the chance to read your fics before you deleted, but im still new here i think. havent been in the tag for long >< ) so you understand the euphoria of seeing your hard work acknowledged. makes the hours of writing and rewriting and plotting feel like they are paying off that much more, to me. (im a bit insane and my writing process takes SO LONG and its frustrating but its the only way that im able to create the end result i want so this was extra nice to hear 🥹 i feel a little less driven insane that its paid off >< )

anyway, sorry for that tangent 🥲
tl:dr thank you thank you for being so sweet and your kind words, and thank you thank you thank you for reading my fics ❤️ im so so very grateful and happy to know youve enjoyed reading them 🥺

also, i probably will predominantly write this trope just bc there are already so many talented writers for other tropes and i hope to maybe possibly encourage the tag to grow >< being the change you wanna see in the world, and all that 🙏🏼 i hope you have a lovely day and that both sides of your pillow are the perfect sleeping temperature when you need them most <33
