may 20th is my official being free and cringe day selfship anniversary! 4 whole years of envisioning myself living a life with diego.... woaw.... i still remember how it started off as mostly a joke, but it quickly became something so special and close to my heart. even beyond selfshipping, his character is extremely important to me in ways i would need far too many words to even begin expressing here.
i've always used selfshipping as an act of self-love and self-acceptance, and i've learned far more about myself than i ever expected through this simple and often silly act. for as long as i can remember, i've imagined myself interacting with fictional characters as a means to distract from the world around me, but there is something extra special about the inner world i've created with diego. sure, it involves a bit of escapism, but it's also the biggest thing that keeps me motivated creatively, and for that i'm very grateful. this guy is one hell of a muse! i could say so much more, but i will keep it simple for this post. i love diego brando... that's my special princess.... 🧡
