guess who just thought of the title for their debut novel at one in the morning and promptly burst into tears

I love writing fanfiction

I love making the characters interact in ways that would never be canon in a million years

I love making them kiss, I love making them hurt

I love healing everything that canon broke inside of them and saying that they’re going to be fine

I love shattering them into a million pieces and watching them struggle to figure out what goes where as they glue themselves back together

I love giving them purpose and light and life outside the bounds of their stories

I love when everything goes to plan and my works fit perfectly into the boxes built just for them

I love when my writing takes a turn that not even I expected, giving me a twist ending that almost wrote itself

I love interlacing my works into canon like an intricate tapestry, threading needles with the exact colour of string it needs to match the rest

I love telling canon to go take a hike as I chip its block of stone into an entirely new shape nearly unrecognizable

I love giving characters love and support and simply pleasures and coffee in the morning and freshly baked bread

I love destroying the universe and letting the characters slowly die until there is truly nothing left of life

I love writing for my own enjoyment

I love self-indulgent fics and tags curated to my tastes

I love writing the tropes that excite me the most and letting my hands take the wheel as the keys almost press themselves

I love creating a little thing just for me, made to taste like the best dish of my life

And most of all, I love writing for others

I love reading people go feral in the comments, barely even able to type a single sentence that isn’t a keyboard smash

I love people discovering my feast of pleasures and deciding to sit down for a bite

I love writing fics specifically for that one person that I know will love and savour every bite

I love seeing little notes in bookmarks, or small comments that taste like spun sugar

I love writing, because it feels like cooking

I love making sure every dish is just right, taste and texture aligning even when it doesn’t look the best on the outside

And I love that I get to share my meals with all of you

Because I love you, and I love everything you do, and I love everything that you love, and I love seeing you love

Even when it feels like everything I’m making is coming out burnt at the edges and raw in the middle

I can just look at your little hearts, and know that it will be worth it when the finished recipe makes you smile
