listen. i know most heated rivalry social media fics are silly and aren't meant to be taken seriously. i also know most of the fandom is pretty young. but as a certified Internet Veteran™️, i'm BEGGING for a time accurate social media fic. you don't know how bad it throws me off when i see a meme included from 2020 onward and the date it's supposed to be from is like 2013. i promise we had funny memes from then you can use!!! brain rot has existed in many forms for ages!!!!
[looking at people younger than me] you have your whole life ahead of you [looking at people older than me] you have your whole life ahead of you [looking at myself] its over
hi yeah i know ive been on this medication for 8 years but i need-- yeah. yeah 3 more months please. I'll call you in 3 months to beg for 3 more months, thanks. Bye. Love you.
listen. i love people who like that shane and ilya didn't have chairs at their wedding. for book canon, i absolutely get it. but for the show? absolutely not. yuna "what's the plan?" hollander, she's planning a wedding in a month and that wedding absolutely has chairs. she'd rather die than have people standing around unsure where to go. the moment shane told her he was going to propose, she had a wedding planner ready to go and tentative bookings at three different wedding venues. she picks the boys up one day "just to see them" and they have tux fittings and cake tastings. they don't even have to think about planning the wedding because yuna is already planning their honeymoon before they can conceptualize it.
i hate seeing fics that have some of the most well thought out characterizations and storytelling just to see they have basically no hits or comments. like wdym this work makes me wanna be a better author just to be on par with who wrote it and i'm the only one reading it!!
“What did you say?” Robert asked, his mouth drier than it had been in a long time.
“Oh, you can’t hear now?” Chad asked sarcastically before he began to shout, “I said you self-”
“No, fuck you,” Robert responded, almost as a reflex. “The whole… boyfriend part.”
“What about it?”
“You think I’m your boyfriend?”
Chad looked at him like he had grown an extra head. “What do you mean think? We’ve been dating for like two weeks now.”
guys. GUYS. i'm SO sorry this took so long to get out there. the ao3 curse is alive and well. a lot of weird, unfortunate events plagued me this month, including: a move in an unexpected snow storm, my new job going from 0 to 100 within the span of a week, eliminating 90% of my writing time, and having a huge issue getting my meds, which meant my brain just went kaput on me for a while there.
long story short, i've been roughing it a little these past few weeks. but i'm back now!
mostly.
i have the final chapter outlined, i just need to write it. sadly, i still have very little free time, and while my brain is on an upswing cycle right now, it doesn't take a lot these days to send it in the opposite direction. because of that, i don't want to promise anything in terms of timing. ideally it'd be within the next two weeks but well. i said that last time lol.
i hope the fluffiness of the chapter makes up for my absence, i really liked writing this one. it felt good to have them finally talk things out and i giggled several times while writing the car scene. i'm glad i took some time to really workshop this one because it was originally a LOT more angsty before i realized i didn't want to write robert being a depressed asshole any more than he wanted to continue being one. me and robert have that in common lol.
