how ya doing?

Hi! I'm doing pretty good. :) I've gotten some new comments lately, and have been happily eating those up. Besides that, I'm just chilling. I've mulled over some new writing projects but haven't started anything in a bit. One of these days though.

At this very moment, I am waiting for water to boil so I can make mac & cheese. #adultthings

Hope you're doing well too!

HI! I DON'T SAY THIS ENOUGH, BUT I FUCKING LOVE YOUR STORY. thANK YOU FOR WRITING!

AW!! Thank you! :'D I'm so happy people continue to enjoy it after so long <3

Could I get like, a description of how Tommy looks in your fic? Like things that are different from canon?

Of course! Let's see how well even I remember it all lol

Like halfway through, I had him start wearing a black shirt because it stains less than white. During a recent trip to Snowchester, I believe he wore a long sleeve black shirt, but I like to think he switches it up depending on what he's doing. Pants? idk; dark.

There's ofc the infamous red hoodie that has been around for most of the story.

Then the black boots with red laces. I see them as combat boots that go up a bit past the ankle.

At current, he's been carrying around a black cloak. Long, with a hood- not much to it.

The mask that has the crack running through one of the eyes. (I imagine it goes through the left eye, clipping a bit into the edge of the smile as well) Though it's usually kept in his inventory these days.

While I haven't addressed it much, I like his hair being long enough to tie back a bit, and have described it as 'sun bleached', due to the extended exile. Take that however you will.

There's also a scar on the side of his neck from a spar gone wrong.

Grey eyes.

Annnd I think that's it. Though if I were to remove common headcanons as well, he doesn't have the green bandana or the white hair streaks, for he has not died/revived. Love that for him ;D

Is this the first fanfiction you've written for Dsmp? If not, where can I see the others? I'm very interested in your work and want to read more stuff if you have any.😊

It is actually! I got into dsmp shortly before I started writing this monster of a fic, and I've been plugging away at it every since ;') If I ever post another fic that I think the audience of FbT would enjoy, I'd at least share it here.

Though I'm pretty tired after this one, we'll see if that ever happens.

In light of that Dream exile tweet I was curious about something and I went and checked my history. So as it turns out. I have visited this fic 719 times. Erm...

LMAOOOO that is WILD :D I'm glad the fic is worthy of being clicked on 719 times kjfhgkjdfhg

If anyone was wondering, the Dream tweet basically confirmed my angle on it; that exile was a piece of a much larger plan. Validation pog

Although there's also some cool implications I didn't expect, but too late to do anything about that now~

But anyway. Thanks, anon ;u;
