happy december everyone! hope everyone is doing well! ❤️
life is slowing down for a bit and i want to fill my time with a little bit of writing. i haven't written in awhile and thought i could step into it by accepting prompts.
if you and i have love for the same ship and have any fluff, hurt/comfort, canon divergent, scene rewrite, or alternative universe writing prompts, please send me an ask!
i think i'll accept 4 writing prompts for now and see how fast i can complete the drabbles. in the tags are some of the ships, i'm inspired to write about 💕
