I long emerge from the void to just tell you guys that I love you all and hope everything is going well in your lives. I’m in the process of cleaning out my childhood bedroom and found a poem I had written for a school project where I specifically mentioned Linda in it (she’s the “who lives across the globe” person in the picture I attached). And it got me all sentimental thinking about how much fun we all had doing the RP and just hanging out and how much that meant to me when I was at a super low point in my life. Thank you all for being you 💜💜💜
How was your brother's wedding? How is your engagement with Kenny going? We miss you! :)
I am so so so sorry for disappearing for like 3 months. Between finishing up school and internship, looking for a job, and finally finding a job, things have been pretty busy. Now that I’ve started my new job things should calm down in the next couple of weeks and I can actually hang out here again.
Brother’s wedding was really nice, small because of the current state of the world, but nice. Kenny and I haven’t really made any wedding plans yet bc of both of us finishing school and getting jobs lol, but we’re hoping to actually figure that stuff out in the next couple of months.
So... Kenny and I got engaged last night. It was completely unexpected. I thought he was going to wait until our anniversary in May to propose (which apparently is exactly what he wanted me to think).
But yeah, I’m really really really happy right now :)
I love all of you very very much and I’m so thankful that you all chose to come back and hang out here. This is such a wonderful place to be able to come back to. You all are the best <3 <3 <3
I'm not rushing you (I hope this doesn't come off that way), but I was wondering how your Love fic is coming along? I adore the snippet you posted, and I am really looking forward to reading the whole thing, once it's finished. :)
Hello anon!! Totally doesn’t come off that way :) Love fic is a work in progress--grad school has unfortunately gotten in the way of getting it done quickly, but my goal is still to get it to you guys by the end of the month. Thanks to everyone for your patience :)
I just wanted to say I hope it all went well and ilysm
Hello!!! It did all go well, my mom was actually able to come home on Tuesday night instead of Wednesday. Thank you to everyone for all the very kind messages and well wishes. You guys are the best and I am so thankful for the support.
Just wanna say I'm very excited about your Love fic rewrite <3
Hello anon I am so sorry for responding to this late (my last semester of grad school just started and things have been a bit crazy in terms of work) but thank you <3 <3 <3
Here’s a snippet to keep you guys motivated to read it when I eventually finish it (I know my description says to expect it on January 30th but I may need to change that bc it’s turning out to be a lot longer than I thought it would be haha)
For context, they just finished watching The Notebook in this scene:
As the credits to the movie rolled, Dave could hear some sniffling coming from Logan’s direction. He looked over at him and noticed his eyes were red, as if he were crying or trying to hold himself back from crying. Dave gave Logan a strange look and asked “…you good, Logan?”
Logan tried to stifle his sniffling, responding “It’s my…. Allergies. That’s all.”
Jackie looked over at Logan. “You’re in a house full of dogs and one of your best friends is a cat. I don’t think that’s allergies.” She said. Logan was full of surprises tonight—namely, he wasn’t nearly as much of a jerk as he liked to pretend he was.
“It’s a good movie, okay? Happy now?” Logan snapped. He took a breath. “Noah and Allie are totally meant for each other, and I don’t know, I guess I hope I find someone to have a relationship with like that someday.”
Dave could see his point, and honestly, he agreed with him. He wanted to find his “one” like his dads did, like it seemed like all of the adults in White Chapel did.
Mikey raised his eyebrows. “Logan McLahey, the secret romantic! So tell us, who is the Allie to your Noah?”
Logan raised both of his hands up— “Woah, I didn’t know movie night was also “let’s talk about our feelings” night.” He crossed his arms and huffed.
“Well, I mean, friends share their secrets, right Logie? Everyone here knows about my thing for Blake, and that Mikey’s got some weird thing going on with the rest of his bandmates.” Said Jackie.
Mikey made a face but didn’t argue.
Dave did not like where this conversation was going—he’d been noticeably silent during this whole conversation, and it was only a matter of time before they turned their attention toward him.
“Hey, if I’ve gotta talk about who I like, then Dave has to, too. It’s only fair.” Logan said, stretching to grab the last bottle of water off of the table.
Dave was just about to protest when Jackie’s face lit up. “Now you’re talking, Logan.”
Logan turned toward Dave. “You cool with that?”
“Not really, but I don’t suppose I have a choice.”
“We could say it at the same time, if that would make it easier?” Logan suggested. Dave nodded.
Hello friends, sorry for being more of a lurker than an active participant these past couple of days--I’ve got a 20 page research paper due for grad school next week and I kinda sorta waited until the last minute to start it... I will be back to my usual Tumblr habits starting Tuesday night.
