HELLO MISS RYSA!!! scale of 1 to 10, how are you doing today? eating enough, had water, slept well? 🫶
this is sooo random but. i think ur writing style is so captivating, and really enjoy going through your fics and giving them rereads :”)

if i may, a question -
we’re mutuals on Twitter (surprise! lame trumpet noises) and u seem so sweet ! but the question - you have such neat friendships w other writers, and it’s so fun to watch yalls twitter hijinks. how did you do it? find fandom friends, in that way? :o

thanks for reading and take care of urself!!!! <3

hello anon! i think i'm at like a 6/10 tbh, i'm doing alright and just got back from a run so feeling pretty rejuvenated and hydrated, but i have been rly unproductive these past few days and also it's day 2 of my period so i'm not rly thriving mentally or physically </3 thank you for this message, that's so sweet and makes me so happy!

i think i've been very lucky with my fandom friends in that i've kinda just been abducted into friend groups due to sheer luck! like being added to group chats or servers with people and then having fun conversations, etc. etc.. a lot of my friendships have just sprung up from infrequent DMs that became more frequent as we learned more about common interests and each other's lives! but honestly i'm not too great at making fandom friends myself either, and i am especially bad at taking initiative, so i have genuinely just been very lucky to be invited to smaller spaces where i got to know people better :) i'm really bad in big servers and scared of speaking up there tbh, but smaller spaces are where i'm able to feel a lot comfier. some of my closest fandom friends from my prev fandom i don't interact with as much anymore, but i have so many fond memories of us getting up to absolutely unhinged conversations at crazy times of the day during like march 2020 covid lockdown haha

take care of yourself too! <3
