ure literally my fav person here. thank you 😭🥹 i needed to hear that

oh gosh honey this truly means a lot to me. i was having a conversation with a friend yesterday that made realise that some of the things i don't prefer reading aren't as unheard of as i originally thought. and it made me think that these things should be said on the tl and not just in private conversations. just as a reminder that it's okay to like what you like and avoid what you want to avoid. i think a lot of us sometimes forget that fanfiction is supposed to be a comfort place; characters you already know and love, familiar tropes. there's absolutely nothing wrong with trying to expand your horizon, of course. but doing so out of pressure of missing out and wanting to fit in with the crowd isn't the best way to go about it imo. and i'm guilty of doing that sometimes so yeah, again, a reminder that we all need from time to time. thank you for the message honey<3
