also, i have old requests in my inbox but i’m still gonna get them done for as long as i’m bingeing criminal minds. let me just knock out this part 2 real quick first.

[dereksgarcia]

Hey!! It's nice to see you again <3. Are you saying you've already written part two of "Do You Want Me" and just wanna know if we want to read it or? Either way, I'd love to read it.

good to see you too, my love! and i started it months ago. like, the day after i released the first part, but i was gonna go a darker, longer route with it. it was gonna be a case fic basically. but i just wanna write a fluffy part 2 and save a case fic for something else? another request maybe? i’m not sure yet tbh. i’m just throwing ideas around.

[dereksgarcia]

long time no see, no talk, no post. would anyone still want a part 2 to dywm?

I don’t know if you’re still having issues writing your fic, but if so: You can do it! Remember to not force creativity and take breaks. Don’t overwork yourself either.

thank you, my love ! i did start on dywm part dos but scrapped it bc it was like….garbage lmao. but i’m gonna give it another go tonight and hopefully everything falls into place, maybe ? tysm for sending me this tho.

@whymesswperfection you’re so sweet and I hope you keep writing beautiful stories and remember how talented you are!

@dereksgarcia I know you’re newer here but you’re so friendly and you really do have such a gift with words, please keep writing!

@autisticdoctoreid may you have all the spoons you need for energy, and please keep fighting for representation! It’s so important - but also take care of yourself!

@wheresthewater oh my gosh I can’t believe I nearly forgot you! Thank you for being a good friend and for taking the time to leave such kind and helpful feedback for so many writers. You’re a fantastic human being and I appreciate you!

@attack-on-doris @madamredwrites @mitarashisabi @breakawayfromeveryday  @sunshinemgg @ashes-of-elysian @stunudo @imagicana and so many I’m sure I’m forgetting, I know I haven’t been great about communicating, but thanks for making me feel so welcome here! You all mean so much to me, even if I forget to say it!

@cherrybombs-and-rabbitholes you’re still the writer I think of when I think CM fanfiction, and I hope life is being kind to you and that wherever you are, you write the things that make you happy. Thanks for being our Mama Duck and being such a good friend!

@bookofreid I really hope that your applications go well and that your days are full of good people who make you feel important and who love you as much as you love the world!

@dontshootmespence I’m still in awe of the way you make like Hamilton and write like you’re running out of time. You contribute so much to this fandom, and you still find the time to be a lovely and generous and make people smile. I hope you take some time for yourself this week!

@reiding-and-writing thank you for being one of my first friends here and for being such a source of positivity and encouragement and kindness, and I hope you know that we love you and appreciate you beyond words!

See, there you go. That’s what I’m talking about. That’s called game.

[dereksgarcia]

have you decided if you're doing a part 2 to DYWM?

i am and i’m about to wing the hell out of it.

[dereksgarcia]

Face it, chicko. You’re only a genius in english

[dereksgarcia]

idea: spencer x reader with a relationship like Jim and Pam from the Office

confession time: i tried watching the office but it was so not funny….drag me. like it has its funny moments, but the way it’s hyped up on tumblr i expected to laugh way more than i did. i do watch superstore though and i know that the main love story is based off jim and pam, so i’m sure i can write this if you really want.

[dereksgarcia]

Real talk tho I love the idea of Derek, Reid and the reader being in a poly relationship. As someone in a poly relationship myself it's always something I'd love to see more of, and it always make the "love triangle" trope a bit more... enjoyable. Instead of fighting over one person it's three people healthily loving each other. But maybe that's just me lol.

not just you at all. i started off thinking i was going to make it into an unrequited crush sorta thing, but by the time i, no exaggeration, hit the second paragraph i realized it was poly af. i’ve been asked to do a part 2 and if that’s something you guys would be interested in then i would def go that route instead of a love triangle. i already have an idea for it, so.
