[climbedrightbackupthecliff]

Oh but I'm quite small and I never have it all together, And I'm just a girl who doesn't have any diamonds or pearls, But don't give me your pity 'cause there's more to life than pretty things, So I'll just give me, Yeah I'll just give you me,  And I'm not even five foot three

Five foot three by @ourforgottenboleros

Warning: full of spoilers. Go read first.

After doing a speed reading because I should be studying and not reading fanfics, i was dying from anxiety to write everything I need about this fanfic. 

First, its not a linear writing. Its a genius way! Out of nowhere we get a line from the future thinking about Trixie's actions, why she did those things. And there is mix of times, like Trixie is doing things and then we get how was her summer. Its well structured. I loved! If i am not wrong, Stephen King writes like this.

About the plot! Trixie goes to college and find friends there. I had low expectations, after 8 chapters I find myself crying, I cried in the shower today thinking about this fanfic! I love this Trixie so much that I want to protect her from the world.

Trixie here comes from a small town where she suffered abuse from her stepfather. You can notice when she snaps about her name, when she doesnt like to be touched or when there is a loud sound near her face and she is scared. Her stepfather took away every control she had in her life. To the point where she needs to hide in the closet to feel safe or she cant lock her door, talk loudly in her own room. When she says to Katya its not the first time he had hit her.

And because I am a family person, I was fully heartbroken when she promises to never come back to her house because her stepfather is there. That she feels without a family and feels guilty. He makes her mother not talk to her, taking away her only confort. Full control of her and her mother. And fights with her brother about how she is left out.  

That brother had to leave for college when she was a teen. Without support, Trixie and her mother were alone. And even now in those chapters, he is still fighting for a career and trying to be there for his sister. But far. 

But Trixie was strong enough to go to college! She finds Alyssa, a great new mother that gives her coffee, food and some love. Her roommate is Kim Chi, who is the first friend to offer support and love, that is there to listen. And Katya! Katya gives emotional support.

Maybe Trixie and Katya relationship is the most beautiful I have read on the fandom. They are full there for each other! When Trixie notices Katya 's flaws and you see HOW REAL THEY ARE! She is there when Trixie cant deal with her stepfather screams over the phone, when she needs to go back home, in the phone giving support and sending memes, the little group chat that worries for Trixie's safety, their little touches, the "I love you"s, when Trixie is worried about being a virgin, her mother. And the most incredible thing and I cried, when Katya's mom buys a plane ticket for Trixie. Katya was there when Trixie looses her family and on her birthday. Katya is always there.

I love how the writer shows how Trixie feels safe around Katya. Letting her touch, sleep in the same bed, braid her. And how Katya stops sleeping around.

Now, lets talk about how this fic got many asks on tumblr thanking the writer for helping them find their own sexuality.

(Time to cry rivers. I am so proud of you writer)

When you suffer from abuse and your house is a mess, you need to find a way to control youself. Trixie was a virgin, she never had a boyfriend, she was sure she was straight. If you are not confortable, you cant even think about your sexuality. She doesnt know she is beautiful, she is sexy or has a great voice! She makes those jokes, the ones that make people unconfortable.

When Alyssa asks about Katya being a girfriend, Trixie gets a boyfriend. Then she looses her mind about being straight.  

Please, notice that after she brokes with the boy, Trixie starts to sleep more and have bad days. But still has Kim Chi wirh her. And Katya, of course.

At 20 years old, Trixie finds her body. She finds control in her own body. I CRIED AGAIN BECAUSE ITS SO IMPORTANT TO KNOW YOUR BODY. She masturbates, she watches porn, she reads porn, lesbian porn.

DID YOU NOTICE YOU ARE DESCRIBING MANY TEENS? I am crying over other people noticing their own sexualities on your ask!!!! 

I am a crying mess. Fuck empathy. I am PMS ing

After reading chapter 8, i am a mess. Because Trixie lost her control in life.

Trixie, trying to get her life in control, get her sexuality on her terms... she has sex. With the summer roommate, Violet. Pure lust and need for control.

Even if the little smut was really sexy. I was crying because there was no feelings involved. Trixie needs it. I cried hard after the Barbie line.

I have read too much real people talking about their own abuse for Psychology that sex (and drugs) are the only things they can control over their lives. Trixie is lost on casual sex, missing her mother and having emotional support from Katya, who must be hurt after knowing about Violet. 

I love your fanfic.

I dont mind my tears, you deserve every one. I gave my tears to Tolkien, Rowling and Stephen King. Frodo, Snape and Jake Chambers got my tears and my need to write about their journeys.

I hope you graduate soon. Never stop writing, you have a gift
