💌 a little life update

hi everyone—coming to you with a small but important update 🩷

i’ve been dealing with some health-related challenges lately that have made it difficult to function the way i normally would on some days. nothing too serious, but enough to slow me down in ways i didn’t anticipate. i wanted to be transparent with you all rather than just go quiet.

i know i mentioned that chapter 3 of twice fallen would be out before i leave for tokyo in the next two weeks, and i’m so sorry to say that’s no longer something i can promise. i want to give you the best version of this story—and right now, i just can’t do that the way it deserves. i’m sorry for that.

what i can give you is a joshua x reader one shot before i leave—and you have my word on that 🤍 it’s a soft, quiet little thing, and i hope it finds whoever needs it most.

i also want to manage expectations gently: the rest of april and all of may are going to be busy with some pre-planned trips so i honestly can’t say whether twice fallen will be updated in that window. but please know—the story isn’t going anywhere. it lives in me. life is just asking for a lot right now.

thank you for being the kind of readers who make it feel safe to be honest. your patience and kindness mean more than i know how to say! please feel free to leave a message/ask and i’ll get to them as soon as i can. see you soon. 🩷

🌷 some good news + a poll to make your head spin

hello, my darlings—

i've missed you more than words can say.

i'm happy to share that two days ago, i was officially cleared by my doctor. i'm still on some medications and taking things one step at a time, but i'm doing well—genuinely, quietly, peacefully well. healing isn't always loud and mine has been slow and full of small mercies and i am just grateful for everything.

i'm easing back in gently, which means i can only really hold one muse in my heart right now; and if you know me even a little, you already know who. i'm sorry in advance: it is, and perhaps always will be, a joshua world, and we are all just living in it 🩷

but here's the thing: i want to write something you want to read.

so i'm leaving the choice in your hands. vote below for the prompt you'd like me to write because there will be one winner—though the others may find their way here someday too (no promises, but never say never, the chances may be low but never zero). and if there's a story on the list that's keeping you up at night, drop it in my inbox or the replies. i will genuinely consider it 🫧

🩷

joshua; christmas, fake dating (kind of) + a second chance, cold car rides

wonwoo; post-concert comfort, gentle love, promises, wc less than 10k

joshua; mornings, hell of a lot of banter when they're both horny, emotional

joshua; childhood friend turned lover turned ex, love never rly left, depression

Voting ended onMay 11

the winning prompt + chapter 3 of twice fallen will be posted sometime in june or july. good things take time and i don't want to rush either of them!

thank you for waiting. thank you for staying. thank you for being the kind of readers who make coming back feel like coming home. i love you all so much and i cannot wait to write for you again.

with so much warmth, ali 🌸

hey everyone! have we all seen that viral joshua video of him asking carats if he could borrow their phone's mirror cam or whatever during their encore con? he looked so handsome and unreal, right? if you haven't yet, what are you doing ksksks

well i'm traveling in 24 hours but i just wanted to let you know that i started writing a scenario related to that because my brain won't stop thinking about it. if i don't fall asleep on the plane, i might just start writing the rest and post it by the time i come home. my seat mate on the plane will probably think i'm weird and silly if they happen to snoop and read my draft ksksks that's how spur of the moment this story is going to be 🩷

i love you and i'll see you all very soon!!
