#well. not really because i'm actually in the very last stretch of my thesis. but the move is done enough that i have some bandwitdh to draw

A collection of diving birds.

A kingfisher, a pelican, an osprey, and a booby.

[winterrhayle]

if you could remove five songs from 1989 and replace them with the vault tracks, what would they be and why?

i'm gonna do this but WITHOUT suburban legends because no 1989 song deserves to be replaced by that mess, sorrrry (i swear im not a hater i just think it's the worst song on the album)

also while i'm here i reordered the whole album hahahha

okayyy so here's my ideal version of 1989 (vaults are underlined)

new romantics - i think this is the ideal album opener, just because wtny isn’t really a well loved song when you take it out of the context of it being the first track of 1989 (even though i like it personally, its on the bottom half of mine and most peoples 1989 rankings) but new romantics still works bc it sounds like a song of new(romantic) beginnings, and its kinda the thesis statement of 1989,, about how the album is supposed to be super free and light hearted (also the intro of this song is so iconic and its perfect as a track 1)

blank space - im kinda trying to do this album somewhat chronologically, but also im trying to get the themes and production to flow,, blank space is a perfect track 2 bc it still sounds like a city track like new romantics, but it also sounds equally beach-y, and those are the 2 aesthetic elements of 1989 so its a good joint album intro. ALSO blank space gives u a good idea of how Taylor was seen at the time, as a dramatic serial-dater or whatever..,,, which leads me into track 4…

“slut!” - like i was saying,, blank space is about how she’s seen, and slut touches on the same topic of being slut shamed, but this time its about what SHE actually feels, and it flips it into being like,, its worth it bc i met this really cool guy aka:

(harry) style(s) - and this is the first sense of like. problems in the album, as in its pretty clear from this song that the mysterious guy she’s dating is not someone that she’s gonna last with,, also it gets us back into the city vibes smoothly bc the rerecord of this song has added sparkles which is reminiscent of the beach songs, but of course style overall is a city song so it flows well

wonderland - this is a perfect track 5 bc its a super emotional song that details the relationship + the breakdown of it, also its a BOP (y’all need to appreciate wonderland more)

out of the woods -🚨 BOP BOP BOP BOP BOP BOP🚨and like most of this albums its a lyrically sad bop and it fits with wonderland and explains the anxiety further

i know places - same purpose as ootw, it explains why the relationship was doomed from the start as its 2 very high profile people

say don’t go - fits chronologically, and talks abt how he didn’t love him back, and all he needed to do was not go,, (as in all he had to do was stay if u know what i mean)

this love - this love came back to me woahohoh (i think this is where it fits chronologically? where mr lover man comes back)

all you had to do was stay - she decided its too late to get back together tho RIP HAHA

now that we don’t talk - post break up realisations, lhh isn’t that amazing

wildest dreams - back to the beach rq, with a side of post-breakup mystique and i bet you think about me energy

clean - still keeping it beach-y, and now she’s clean from both the relationship, and the album booklet secret message is ‘she lost him, but she found herself, and somehow that was everything’ which is nice bc self love,, and she’s moved on , ALSO LINKS BACK TO THE ALBUM THEME OF FINDING URSELF

shake it off - ngl i put this here bc i think going from the emotional song clean to SHAKE IT OFF is funny, and every ts album needs a jumpscare at some point. but honestly this kinda fits thematically, because its talking about her persona like in blank space, but this time instead of leaning into it she’s shaking it offff and she’s clean (^) from the expectations to be what other people want or expect her to be. also its a fun song and brings up the energy for the home stretch of this longgggggg album

is it over now? - is it ever really over????????? NO (also i would consider this song to be a city and beach song because the AUUU HAAAAAAAAAA parts remind me of seagulls) alsooo if u loop it the ending of this song leads nicely into the intro of new romantics

deluxe edition :

16. you are in love - the deluxe is my excuse to put my QUEEEN you are in love on here bc it didnt fit anywhere

ik u probably intended for me to replace songs that have similar themes with their corresponding vault but theres so many songs that i just cant bear to take off😭 but heres the parallels anyway: blank space / slut, all you had to do was stay / say don't go, style / suburban legends, wildest dreams / is it over now?(this is a reach), now that we don't talk / idkkkk i cant really think of an equivalent

Hi there! Like probably a lot of people, I'm quite jealous and in awe of the amount of reading you seem to get done. If you don't mind my asking, did you read this many books when you were in grad school? I'm in the last few months of my PhD (in paleontology!) and I've found that working on my thesis has absolutely killed my ability to get through books. Did this happen to you? Did your brain recover afterward? Or did you never deal with the reading slump?

Thanks! (And I hope you're having a good day, because you seem like a cool and nice person!)

Hey, hi! First, best of luck with your final months of grad school!!! Honestly, for me, they were so hard because of the lack of structure. Just, “finish your dissertation” and that was all the instruction really. If you ever wanna chat/vent about that, lemme know!! (Also paleontology!!! That’s so cool!!)

I always like to preface my reading habits with this: I have a very fast reading comprehension speed, and so for me, it averages out to about 100 pages of a novel in an hour and about 75 pages of nonfiction in an hour. In that way, I got lucky with the combination of early reading education, at-home book discussions, and genetics. So I can sit down and read a 300-page book in one evening, which meant that, even though I was only reading only one or two days a week, I was still getting through 50+ a year that way in grad school

I also listen to a lot of audiobooks and love trade paperbacks of graphic novels. The graphic novels can be quite fast reads for me, and this again is partly luck and genetics—my mom’s an artist, so I learned to look at images critically quite young, and can frequently find important info in them quickly. Then, for audiobooks, I do struggle with some chronic illnesses and chronic pain, and I frequently have to check out of life—but I cannot be left alone in my own head, or I rapidly catastrophize lol. I also can’t shut my own brain off when it’s time to sleep, so I listen to audiobooks then as well. I’d say this means I average about 4 audiobooks a month, where they’re usually between 8 and 14 hours (I do listen at 1.25 or 1.5 speed, because otherwise my brain stops paying attention)

I was also lucky with my advisor in grad school. She had a firm self-care policy, in that she cares more about her students’ well-being and health than timely progress. So I never felt like I was stealing moments or neglecting my work—I was trying to cultivate the healthiest version of myself, given all the other factors outside of my control. In the six years I worked with her, we actually spent more than one meeting talking about fantasy novels instead of research, which was lovely

But, yeah, there were a lot of reading struggles in grad school for me. I would go long stretches of time where the idea of opening a book and reading more words was unbearable, because god, didn’t I just spend all day reading and writing?? I also started to not care as much for the types of books I read before grad school, so now I’ve got a few stacks of books on hand I feel guilty that I haven’t read (but I’m trying to recognize that I’ll probably never read them, because tastes can change). So I might've had motivation to read, but nothing I had on hand sounded particularly good

Submitting that dissertation and knowing the hard part was over was actually the biggest relief, I think maybe of my life. I defended in mid-October and then submitted the finished manuscript about two weeks later, and then I spent a solid month just…reading whatever the fuck I wanted to lol. I have a postdoc now (and am applying for faculty jobs 🤞), and the responsibilities are waaaaaay less than as a grad student. In fact, my PI is adamant that I should not do more than 40 hrs a week, and so I’ve been able to plow through books like wild in the last few months

I also want to say: grad school is hard. It’s so absolutely difficult. Master’s programs are rough, and PhD programs are their own rodeo, and it sucks to say (because it sounds awful to most people, I know), but unless someone goes through grad school themselves, it’s hard to fathom what makes it so hard and exhausting. It’s totally okay to cut yourself some slack for finding you don’t have as much energy for other things, even the things you really enjoy. The books will be there waiting, and I'll admit it took me a solid 4 years to accept that myself lol

Thanks for the lovely ask, and I really do wish you well as you finish up 💜 again, I'm here--ask box or dm--if you'd like to take more about any part of the process 💜

Part of @kpclub

"Hey, mingyu, long time no see" you gave a pleasant smile while taking a seat opposite of his. It was a flower café, surrounded by Asiatic lilies. " Same here, so how is it going?" Mingyu asked while his hands were folded on the table, making him arch his back to take a closer look at your appearance. " Nothing too much actually.... Oh! The waiter is coming. Wanna have lunch? I heard that this place sells amazing desserts" you enthusiastically say while Mingu's lips curl into a smile which he couldn't hide. It almost felt unreal to him; of how much you had changed yet how much you were still yourself... The same old (your name) who had her eyes sparking every time she talked about something she liked. " Hey gyuu! Anything you wanna eat or drink?" You asked while observing the menu.He answered " nahh, just order anything you'd want for both of us. It's on me" and there it was again! Those sparkles in your eyes " So I've ordered some tiramisu......" " Ok!.... So tell me, how's your life going?" Mingyu insisted after all it's been quite some years since you and last met " Well, I'm still a trainee. I write songs, work as part time receptionist in Pledis, and I also look over the younger trainees. Sometimes I'm a backup dancer.... It's all a hugeeeeeee mess honestly. As I'm still a student. I'm writing my thesis, while working full time.It's hard" you give a tight-lipped smile while not meeting him in the eyes… It had always been a habit of yours, to smile Through the pain; to say that you're fine when you weren't ok; to not meet the eyes when you weren't confident and mingyu knew about it; too well. " I see... It's the same here for me honestly. But at least I've got hyungs, I guess? You know, the limelight makes it harder to have a normal life but you know how it's just how it is" he lets out a huge sight while stretching out his arms. " Haha, yea! We're in our mid twenties...... We wanna be young and aloof but we are also learning to manage ourselves. To be sturdy" you say while your eyes glinted with tears clearly showing that they're held back; and the sight it somehow pricks his heart. " Well, I'm so glad that I got to meet you today. Oh! Look, the food has arrived... Let's eat"you try to alter the heavy atmosphere yet mingyu couldn't help but feel solemn.... It was Like he could sense your sadness. But like always, food always brought the most genuine smile to your cheeks. Once the plates are empty, you eye the clear sky above you. It was clear blue with a few fluffy clouds " You know mingyu, I'm gonna leave this industry...... '' you said as you looked upon the sky mourning; there was just too much to lose as you neither had confidence nor the courage to look him in the eye.., " R-really? Are you sure?" Mingyu tries to confirm as he was immensely surprised and taken back. " Yea" you said, finally looking him in the eyes……. " It was great meeting you, afterall we haven't met for so many years right? By the way, we should exchange numbers. I've changed my number you see" he says " Oh! Sure" After exchanging your numbers you went your own ways.....

~

You were walking back home while it was still day. The cold air hits your face and you finally come out of your daydream. Taking one last glance around you just couldn't help but be mesmerised by the scenario of Seoul city. Taking the stairs you quickly walked to your flat; Opening the door knob and instantly shutting it. As a prior trainee, you had learned to know when you were being followed and acting on your senses you immediately knew that a sasaeng was after you. Afterall you still had those instructions tattooed on your head and body. The meeting with Mingyu was a secret so how come they knew? Questioning the action you felt horrified. Not long after you Scrolled through your contacts and called Mingyu….. "Hey, mingyu" you say in a restless voice " Hey, missed me already?" " Nahh, it's just I feel like i',m being followed" you whispered " Wah-? But wasn't the meeting a secret? Anyways I'll come pick you up… just stay there for a while" " But then where should I live after?" " Well you could live with me" he said while his hands twirled his hair with nervousness " Could I ? I'm not feeling much safe here" you said " Umm, then I'll come to get you. Make sure to pack some clothes. Sasengs are hard to fly off" Once you DM'd mingyu your address you now start to pack some of your clothes and a whole lot of things you'd need while living in mingyu's home. " Y/N!!! Lee Y/N!!" The landlord comes banging at your doors. " Yes, Mrs. Seo" you said while opening the door " I'LL GIVE YOU A WEEK, MAKE SURE YOU GET OUT OF HERE" "wa-" "A COUPLE ARE HERE TO RENT THIS FLAT... LEAVE TILL THEN" and she walks off nonchalantly. " Uh, I'm screwed!" You scold yourself while you now pack all of your belongings. Some clothes, a few accessories, cooking potS? And of course quite a handful of bills, from the insurance company for the education loan you were trying to pay off. "Uh, what am I gonna say to him?" You dwelled " 🎶" The phone starts to ring. " Hey, mingyu!" " Hey, y/n! Which flat is it? " Uh, XX..." After the call was over you stacked all the boxes while the room was left with nothing but the bed and counters that home provided. " Hey!" Mingyu invites himself inside. " Hey, let's carry them out" you say while your eyebrows knitted.... The boxes weren't very heavy and once it all was loaded you arrived at Mingyu's glamorous apartment. Well, the elevator was cramped due to all of your boxes but nevertheless you had made it. " Waaaa... Your house is beautiful'' you complimented while his cheeks were flustered " Ahem! Thank You very much" mingyu gave his signature idol smile while walking you up to the empty bedroom " So this is my guest room. You can stay here" mingyu syid while his hands went through his hair locks. It took the whole evening for you and mingyu to actually arrange about half the stuff you'd brought. Saying that he'd cook the dinner mingyu left while you fixed some more objects and clothes…. Now about a quarter of boxes were left. Feeling tired " Phew, I'll check them out later" you said while heading to the attached bathroom for a bath. The long hot bath was truly what you needed. The soothing bath which relaxed all your muscles and your mind as well. Finally,getting out because you had to; you now wore your robe while heading outside the bathroom and quickly changed into your pajamas afterall the luring scent of the delicacies from the kitchen was too delicious to ignore. " Hey, y/n! Thought you were never gonna come out of the room ... Haha" mingyu teases you like always while toasting the anchovies. " If you knew then you should've helped me dummy" you tirelessly said while drinking the warm water that was on the table " You know y/n, Hearing your words at the café I thought we were never gonna meet but here we are…. Even more closer" he said while inhaling deeply " Well, I did intend to never meet you, you know. Maybe after 20 years? After I grew old and would have a relaxed life, I'd probably prefer to meet you then but it's just all so twisted... Uh" you say while he giggles

listening to your words…. " Haha, you're still the same y/n. You'd always say that once our debut was confirmed and you're still saying it even now….. say did you see the future? Haha ``he gives off his contagious laugh while placing the plates on the counter. " The future huh? Umm…" you giggled while mingyu played along with you " the about a future prediction of your own self?" " Sure why not? So let's see….. umm, maybe I'll get married . Well, even if I didn't I'd for sure get a boyfie, hehe" you smiled while mingyu scoffed " You and marriage? That's a pair that I'd look forward to. After All it's just opposite poles ,I tell you" he said while you munched on the French fries that he had made.

As the rice was served, you both now ate in silence. The meal was delicious as always.While you washed the dishes, Mingyu watched some drama's on the TV. " Y/n, your favourite MOVIE IS AIRING!!" Mingyu shouts while gigging after all he knew that you were already rushing and hearing him scream only made you more anxious " Huh, which one?" " Kung Fu panda of course, you dummy. Now come here fast, palli" he says while his shoulders widened around the sofa " Haaa!man! You like to make me rush on purpose right? You prankster" You acted being annoyed flicking his forehead while sitting on the farthest edge of the sofa making yourself comfortable. " That's because you look better when you're flustered ," he whispers but you couldn't care less about it after all your head was very much focused on the TV show. " Mingyu! You pabo! you still remembered it" you dramatically spank his arms " Well of course i would...I'm not some Baka who'd just forget it when especially you spoke about it all the time" " Haha… yea! Oh,how lovely days were those" And once again after the break you enthusiastically watched the movie; being so engrossed in it that you had completely forgotten that your legs were now crossed above Mingyu's legs and he didn't even bother to point it out. " Man, I feel so sleepy" you stretch out your arms with a yawn. " Well, it's only ten thirty. Are you sure you're an adult? Cuz it's kids bedtime" mingyu remarks with a smirk…. Oh how could he forget? Of how much he loves to tease you " Who's A kid huh? I'm 26" you scolded while he laughed it off. " Yea yea, by the way.... Y/n you shouldn't leave the company. At Least not right now. Pledis is taken over by hit man bang, you know that right? So, in the near future you might get opportunities that you've been waiting for. Just for a little while, stay longer?" Mingyu tries to pursue you but maybe, somewhere bus words held yet another meaning embodied that you couldn't comprehend. " Uh, I LL think about it... Good night" you said not wanting to tease yourself….. ~ Like any other day, you had woken up at 4 hurriedly packing up your stuff just to ensure that the trainees would learn a lot more better. Loose bun, thick glasses, vintage skirt, and a plain shirt. You might have gone for a nerdy look but oh, whatever! Similarly for Mingyu he woke up at his usual six am. A short memo from your side in the early morning just made his day…. Oh, did I forget to mention that the whole day Mingyu was rather a lot more blissful and ignorant of all the worldly possessions and was rather happy in his solitude. Fed up by his emotion, Wonwoo invites Mingyu to the cafeteria for some talk. " Say Mingyu, what happened to you?" " Huh? What happened? I'm the same old me bro" " No you aren't… you look like you're glowing as if something very special happened to you? Tell me about it" " AHH, it's just y/n.. she's living with mez for now" " WAA! I'm coming for dinner tonight. Bye gotta take the call" Wonwoo purposely invites himself. Afterall he was the one who knew of Mingyu's one sided love. After texting you about wonwoo's arrival mingyu too spared no time and again went to practice. As the two men entered with a whole box of drinks, the fresh aroma of chicken stew hits their nose and they lure into the kitchen. " Umm, delicious" wonwoo enchantingly closes his eyes, feeling the aroma till his stomach. Turing behind, the sight of those men carves a small smile to your lips as you ask them to freshen up for dinner. " Hey mingyu.. doesn't it feel as if you have a wife? Uh, guess little brother is taking the lead in the romance department huh?" Wonwoo points out while leaving Mingyu be.. after all he was flustered and would need some time. The dinner was enjoyed till the last grain and later they had some drinking programmes. ~ The following day with a bloated face you exit your university With a handful of research topics…… Like always you'd return home very early than mingyu. Pacing back and forth, digging through your boxes you were now left nothing but mess. Clearing

them you again start your thesis. " Hey" mingyu entered through the doors while you had your thinking cap on. Tiptoeing round about you, Mingyu quietly walked pass. It was about noon and with no vegetables in the cabinet you said " Hey mingyu, wanna go buy some veggies?" And like an energetic puppy mingyu hurries up with you heading the town. While you chose the items needed, Mingyu carried all the loads like a gentleman he was. " How much is the cabbage?" " XX, but seeing you as a newly married couple I'll give you a discount.. how about xx?" The shopkeeper winked while both of you were red as a tomato. " N-no we-" " Oh, don't be shy now. Good bye" While you cooked the dinner Mingyu carried out some of his mixed tape. In between all of these events, Wonwoo's words were ringing in his ears. Gosh, he needed some help right there….. ~ Some days you had to work past midnight. Seeing the lights turned on in your room, mingyu would cook some midnight ramyeon and you both would enjoy it. In between these fleeting moments you had gotten the habit of living with Mingyu; his sarcastic remarks, his fun loving voice, his hugs and mostly the little things he did. But you had to leave right? How could you stay as a burden to him? ~

" Haiya........" You slowly wake up after all when was it? since you last had a good sleep. Freshening up you head to the kitchen which has a gorgeous aroma of freshly baked cake. " Good morning y/n" Mingyu greets you while he takes out the toasted bread. " Good morning gyu.... No schedules today?" You asked while comfily sitting on the sofa. " Took a day off today.... Mom's coming,``Mingyu casually mentioned while placing the breakfast for you and him. Along the trainee days Mingyu's mom loved to tease you; at least from your point of view. In a huge crowd of trainees she'd somehow manage to pin you out and give you a motherly smile while saying a word or two of tease. Nothing less, she was a very warm person. A fresh cup of coffee, toasted bread with choco jam and eggs..... And finally some salted butter.. just like how you'd prefer. " Gyu! I'm gonna be heading to the library nearby. Have fun with your mom and send her my greetings" you said while hurriedly heading for some change of clothes. " Oh sure" he smiles, showing his toothy smile. Pairing a white tee with mom jeans and a blazer you left. The library had a very vintage look and felt very warm and homey.... From as long as you knew, you had a very small crush on mingyu. Maybe it was because he was very kind to you; nahh, it's rather he was kind to everyone but more kinder to you. From remembering all your favourite food, movies, actors to actually buying the foods, merchandise and so on. He never told what it was but just in case if it were love; it'd be nice. But maybe you had your chance and it's all over right? You thought. "Bzzz" your phone vibrates.... " Oh, he's arrived" you whispered while buying the book you were reading and head to a cafe. " Hey" the young man greeting you " Hey seokmin," you greet him. Seokmin, your fiancé; he was a great man. Humble, kind, loyal, friendly just as you'd like( maybe not) " So how was your day?" He asked while smiling Endlessly at your presence. " It was great, I had some heavy breakfast... What about you?" You say with a smile that's untrue to yourself " It's good... It's just boss is annoying and bickering always" he sights Mingyu, who had come to the cafe down the road for some exquisite sandwich which his mother liked; was startled to see y/n with a guy he'd never met.... You looked happy and smiley while that guy next to you was intertwining your fingers with his..... To Mingyu, he wanted to see you happy but not happier after all the smiles that you gave to him; it was a sacred prayer only for him and himself.. Furiously he stomped his way through the cafe facing y/n and that unnamed guy. " Y/n....what are you doing here?" Mingyu abruptly comes in between you and seokmin. " Uh? When did you get here? And oh, meet my fiancé Seokmin. ``You introduced your fiancé while Mingyu's blood boiled in anger and his palms turned into fists.... Rolling his eyes in anger " We're getting out.. you've got some clarifications to make y/n" he angrily takes you with him while you say " sorry seokmin, let's talk next time" Silently you followed mingyu till home. He makes you sit on the sofa while his eyes demand answers.... " So what was that about huh?" He interrogates in s rather more lower toned voice which you were not used to " About what? It's like I said he's my fiancé" you kept it simple while Mingyu bids his lower lips trying to calm the anger inside of him " I asked when did you meet him? Why Are you marrying him? Do you even like him? Whats soo good in that stupid boy anyways? Huh?"He continues to insult seokmin in the heat of the moment…. The insults, you couldn't keep yourself calm either after all directly or indirectly they did attack you too... " ENOUGH WITH IT KIM MINGYU! You're not my father or anything to question my choices..... I'm in a marriageable age and he gives me a stable future. As for why I'm marrying him, could you even bring anyone better? Huh? Life isn't always what I'm wanting or what you want.... It's something where we must compromise to life; uh", unleashed your anger that was

beneath all your grief and thoughts…. Maybe it was the little part buried somewhere in between yourself, lost in the sea of tightened knots of feelings. " Then what about me? Was I never in your choice?" Mingyu whispers " You- you're too far away for me gyu" you whispered as well while your tears that were jammed now come out running like a river.... " I wàs never far away..... But I do want to let you know that there never was a day that I never not loved you" mingyu voices out as you now look at him with your teary eyes " i- " you started to cry even more.... Maybe just to let all the pains and grief out or maybe because of the reunion; for what if you hadn't called mingyu? Your love for him would have been in vain or worse nor you nor he would have known each other's feelings. " You know mingyu,the landlord has kicked me out of the apartment....." You said with a smile to which mingyu surrendered with a smile curling up " Your luck's as bad as ever but good for me " he sarcastically says while both of you laugh " And you're the lucky one I guess, cuz I love you" you say while Mingyu couldn't go bonkers inside his head!!! You liked him! And that was all he needed afterall puppy love is hard to ignore... And in this blissful moment Mingyu's phone buzzes..... Want pain he thinks while checking out the message only to be gobsmacked .... "Y/N!! MY MOM!!! SHE'S NEAR THE STATION" And so the days of the couple began.

Oh noo 😞

Hey I'm on my Masters Final Semester too and I've been bombered with all the finals of previous semesters that was postponed due Covid + I gotta work on my final thesis. I can kinda understand how things must be for you!

And about procrastination, well I think we all can relate here 😅 but I hope things will fall into places in the end.

One last thing, I love your writings! I'm not a very patient reader (not something I'm proud of, I'm sorry!) so I usually don't go for multi-chapter fics and purposely avoid running one's because I eventually loose interest. So it's rare for me to read one let alone wait for them.

So hands down to you, you are doing a pretty good job!

You break a leg! We will be cheering you from here ! Best wishes ❤️😃

-🌙☀️

Oh gosh I feel you so much. I don't know about you but academia life™ has been a bit of a nightmare for me this year and this last stretch has left me kinda burnt out. Your message actually came at a great time cause I'd just gotten an email from the teacher who's looking after me for my thesis basically going "You're doing great! Just change all of this [insert long list of corrections] :)" and I know it's good that she's doing this and I am grateful for it but also I just want to be donnnne I can't do this anymore 😭 Anyway what I'm trying to say is that seeing this ask after that really lifted my mood ☺️ (and motivated me to answer to the rest of my askbox before going back to work too lol)

I've made a lot of progress since I last wrote here actually, thank you for your kind words of encouragement! I hope things are going well for you too! 😊💜 Best of luck for your exams!!

I totally understand not getting into multi-chapter fics for that reason don't worry! It makes me all the more happy that you're enjoying if I can never give you peace enough to stick around! It's unfortunate that I'm not the most regular writer 😬 But! I hope you'll stay interested or find other stuff I write that you enjoy on here 😊 I'm also about half-way through the writing for the next chapter and I'm hoping to put it out in the next couple of weeks 👀

Thank you so much for your message anon, it was just what I needed today. I wish you the best! 💜
