Hi!!!

I love your blog so much,I go absolutely feral for your Henry content it’s *chefs kiss*.

I know you’ve already done something similar but like it keeps eating at my brain,just like a Academic Rivals type thing with Henry and it’s constant like one uping and he gets so annoyed with it one day he has to ‘do something about it’ *wink wink*

Maybe idk? I’m not too good at writing lol but I love your page and it’s safe to say I’m probably gonna be in your asks a lot,

hello, ev! lovely to see you joining my solar system. i sure hope to see more of you in the future. thank you for your utter kindness, my dear, and thank you for taking the time to submit a request. <3

however, i am not quite sure what you mean with this contradicting submission; you are quite right in saying that i have already done this before, wherefore your request of the very same thing without any specification or alteration is confusing. i do not mean to be rude with this, but merely intend to express my bewilderment: if wholly aware of the existence of an elaboration on a topic you're fond of, why request the very same thing?

what i can only assume you mean by this is slight variation thereof, which i can, of course, provide; for the next time you do grace my inbox, however, i kindly request of you to be a little more specific, as a request of "i know this has been done before, but do it again" does come across as quite puzzling. this is reiterated with the utmost consideration, of course. all love.

before i elaborate further, here's a selection of my previous academic rival!henry posts that may be interesting to you as well as other users fond of the trope: one / two / three / four

challenging academic rival!henry would be far too indulgent and rewarding in the long run; of course, at first it would have to build, with the tension being strung and pulled at ever so slightly each time you would as much as answer a question of julian's that henry was convinced only he was able to elaborate on. furthermore, it would continue building with the unassuming aid of julian praising your translation methods more and more, at times even more profoundly than henry's, which he, of course, would take bittered notice of. it would come to a rampant boil with heated arguments on seemingly small and meaningless topics just for the sake of agitating the other party, and culminate with the severing of the strung-out tension cord and the consecutive eruption of pent-up passion and longing. by the end of it, you'd be littered in marks; lustfully bitten into (we know he may be prone to doing so due to the possibility of him having bitten charles during the bacchanal...); breathless and motionless, all ability to continue living normally fucked out of you. and yet, upon recharging and regathering your energy, you'd restart the cycle — challenge, tease, get ruined.
