hey quags! i'm just writing to say that i've been going through a major art block for the past few months. it's been very rough i wont lie. So in my desperate attempt to find the last shred of motivation in me, i go to my ao3 history in the hopes of making some art inspired by fics! lo and behold i come across godspeed in my history and i just have to thank you for breaking my art block. after re-reading ur fic i've drawn some art based on a few scenes and although they're not detailed, i drew something, period! so i just wanted to say thanks for bringing me some life back, i can't put into words how much i needed this.

HELL YEAH GLAD TO HEAR IT

shdjfhdb it's super flattering to know i could help. getting anything out after a slump is awesome

Hello! Pardon the awkwardness of this note, I don't quite know how to articulate this without sounding completely unhinged. I had stumbled upon your fic, godspeed, due to viria's fanart and spent the past 2 days reading it. I genuinely could not stop, it was at the forefront of my mind since I passed out reading it at around 4 am and I finished 20 minutes ago at 12 am. Your writing is phenomenal.

I adored Byleth's character, his and Sothis' relationship, his relationship with everyone really, and all the arcs they went through. The running gag of his "obliviousness" and the Dimileth relationship coupled with the utter seriousness of the upcoming war and everyone's internal struggle. The emotions of every POV are so visceral. The motivations of each character, particularly Byleth's and Rhea's, were a delight to read, and the reactions to them. The fate of Edelgard leading up to that after chapters of everyone calling for her head, utterly delightful. I look forward to what happens next.

But I did not write this to demand a new chapter or ask for an update regarding the fic, I just wanted to say that you are an amazing writer and this work of yours is utterly brilliant. I'm new to the Fandom and Fe3h in general, but you write them so well that I was never lost at any point. It was a captivating read, and I will reread again, thank you for sharing your story.

I hope you have a good day, take care and stay safe 🫶

not awkward at all! thank you so, so, sosososososo much for your kind words omg you'll make me blush dhjdbffhdj you thank me for sharing, i thank you for reading. it's very sweet of you to say all this!

hihis i did my annual read of godspeed and just had to leave a note to say that i started reading the fic before i was even in high school and now i'm almost halfway through university so... damn. time really does flies lmao.

anywhosies, i think it'd be kinda funny if the next chapter was the timeskip and it's posted EXACTLY five years after the last update... no..? just me? alright...

okay but fr though, you're an awesome writer and your fic helped me through a rough time. so it doesnt really matter to me if godspeed is never updated again or if it's fully out tomorrow- i think all that really matters to me is knowing that one of my favourite creators is doing well and is continuing to write!! so thank you for sharing your writing with the world. that 13 year old kid from five years ago appreciated it then, and they appreciate it even more now :D

my gosh you'll make me emotional thank you ashdhdhv

time really does fly my goodness. i started the fic hmmm like when i was literally on the cusp of graduating high school... or did i just graduate it? regardless the start of godspeed was a huge milestone for me and im pleased to hear that it's accompanied u through some of urs. truly it's an honour. thank you for reading and being so sweet. i mean it

[quags1re]

i am a fool. years i spent, revisiting godspeed to check for an update, to see if there was any info. when i could have just checked the exact same username just on tumblr and had my questions answered _(:'3」∠)_ anyway hello i hope you are doing well and i shall now be on the lookout here as well asifuhds

im well shhddhhd thank you for checking in

[quags1re]

Just want to let you know that you and your stories have lived rent free in my head since around 2020 and I think of you at least once a week \TvT/ Obsessive? Maybe? Probably! Even my friends know of that ‘one fire emblem fic the length of the bible’. Your writing has made me a changed woman ✨

Anyhow!! Hope you’re doing well! Wishing you all the best and hope you’re having happy days >v<

dhdhdhdh thank you im super honoured that i could create something that you love mwah mwah mwah. i hope your days are going well as well and that you're eating good food always. mwah mwah, thank you for thinking of me

[quags1re]

missing u quags !!! Hope you’re resting and doing well!!!! ❤️

hehe im well thanks for asking i hope you're well too

[quags1re]

oh by the way, do you also think byleth and dokja would be best friends? i couldn't stop thinking about it, especially when your byleth gave up his life for sothis. wonder what would be a name for kimcom and blue lions together. i'll leave that up to you. m

kdj and byleth would get along because their emotional understanding is so. poor ahahshdhdh they have no idea how much they mean to other people and they're dumb. the kimcom and lions combined.... the klue clions. blim lons. something incredibly inefficient ahahahsghdgd they'd like the name tho, but inwardly

[quags1re]

dear quags1re,

i hope you'll be able to forgive me as i'm yet another person to bring up godspeed in my wee query to you, however, i do not come asking for an update. i simply wish to inform you that your story has played a major part of helping me survive what could be named the worst period of my life, that has been taking place recently.

i only came back to fe3h last month, after almost two years, to cheer up a little while irl experiencing circles of hell even dante did not dare to write about. and now i had my first (hands on) azure moon experience :) yayy :) soon after beating the shit out of edelgard (on my first try! yippie) i remembered that very dear person to me told me about your fic, those two years ago, and i decided to check what it was about since she would mention it every now on then. it took me five days to catch up and oh. safe to say neither byleth nor i are dying any time soon.

i hope you're doing well yourself. if godspeed ever comes back both my friend and i will be there, but it matters not, as godspeed has carved a spot out for itself in my heart and will not leave it. thank you.

take care,

m.

well first of all thank u so so so much for saying you really enjoy my fic and no omg i don't mind when people message me about godspeed i prommy

second of all it's a true honor that my fic was able to help you in any way honestly im super flattered and i really do wish you nothing but fortune and happiness all the days of your life. thank you for staying with us, truly. i know im an internet person but know you're in my thoughts

im doing well! godspeed will return. ive been rereading it proper for the first time ever recently and been writing some more and more and stuff. i have stuff on anon– maybe ill de-anon stuff if that's something people are interested in

anyway. drink water, eat yummy food, and stay safe. mwah mwah

[quags1re]

AWWW THANK YOU OMG YOURE SO SWEET

[quags1re]

this is pretty random but i just wanted to ask if ur doing well!

i am! just in a bit of a slump lol

to get myself back in gear ive been letting myself write whatever in anon lol so i am still writing

[quags1re]

hi……… you probably get bothered about godspeed all the time but immmm i’m confused .. i’ve loved your fic for years!!!! but ao3 says it hasn’t been updated since 2021 🥺 did you quit perhaps…..? or is it continued somewhere else ..?

sure hasn't been updated since then lol

but thank u for your support! i didn't quit ahshshd i woulda put discontinued and wouldn't have left the fic on a x/?

it's definitely not anywhere else

[quags1re]

ur latest snippet OH MY GOD. okay 1. I’m stupid for assuming that it’s the new world/universe since the Faerghus wedding could be the other tagged relationship (Felix/sylvain) which, yay!!! Happy pride!! And 2. If this is the old route, Byleth, whom is already married, castrated someone???? Good for him, that man probably deserved it. Still doesn’t explain the whole suitor thing, but again it could just be rumours spreading amongst the common folk (I would do the same thing tbh), and who’s to say a suitor??? Maybe she needs him for other reasons.

okay. So while I was typing that I realized that if this is the old world, Edelgard should be dead 😭 what the fuck. Who is the emperor 😭 is this even the old world I’m losing my marbles. This can’t be the new world??? WAIT WAIT UNLESS BYLETH CAME BACK TO THE NEW WORLD??? THATS WHY HE SAID “IM MARRIED”?? ITS THE ONLY WAY BC IF EDELGARD IS ALIVE ITS SOTHIS INHABITING HER BODY WHICH IS WHY SHES LOOKING FOR HIM SINCE SHE WASNT PRIVY TO HIS LOCATION WHEN THE LIONS HID BYLETH?? How did Byleth not lose his mind??? That man was NOT stable before travelling back to the old world he was genuinely tweaking. To go back to the new world would mean that he’s separated from his og lions and HUSBAND a second time…is he okay?? Is he sane??

man idk 😭 I really am losing my shit here just how much time passed exactly…anyways author u have no idea how excited I am for the next update my fingers are actually twitching rn

-a reader that cannot move on

AHSHAHSJSGSHSSHSG. WELL. SINCE YOURE SO SWEET ILL LET U KNOW THAT YOURE RIGHT ABOUT SOME THINGS. what things they are.... hm you'll have to wait and see

in any case im not even sure byleth was sane before all that went down and i wrote him lol. thank you for your anon!

[quags1re]

SHEZ??? WHATS HE DOING HERE?? IM SCREAMING THE SNIPPET GOT ME SO GIDDY 😭

and did I read that right?? Edelgard’s looking for a suitor?? Assuming that this is the new world since we already got the Dimileth wedding in the old route, was she seperated from sothis? if this is the new route, Im guessing that byleth is still “missing” since,,,why would u go after a married man….I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS WHAT IS GOING ON WHY IS SHE ALIVE 😭

-a reader that cannot move on (shaking screaming crying throwing up I’m so excited)

hehe i do wonder what shez is doing here. and huh i wonder how much time has passed. is the emperor really looking for a suitor? so many questions. who knows. (me)

your enthusiasm is really sweet and encouraging thank you. have a gift in return

[quags1re]

gods peed

[quags1re]

Obsessed with this guy like literally what was his problem

-a reader that cannot move on
