giiiirl i don't know if you remember me, we were friends YEARS ago in my mcu era, i can't even remember my blog name anymore i think it was like swiftly-heart, but i just wanna say. i keep quietly checking in on you every couple months and i just. it blows me away how you're still working on rebel columbia. all these years and you're still so dedicated to the story that you're telling, i'm so proud of you???? you're so cool??? and the whole thing stands the test of time still too, i read like half of rebel columbia sometime last year (i've still never finished it, it's so long, i spend all my time on my own writing i'm so sorry), and it was just as iconic as i remembered it, like yeah i haven't finished it but the parts that i've read are burned in my brain. i think about rebel columbia every time i watch a marvel movie and that isn't a joke.
anyway your name popped up again and your pinned post was from like three days ago and today i was going through fics from the last five years and i just HAD to say something. you're so cool. i wish i could have stuck with my own mcu au until it was done, it lives in my heart as something really pivotal but i just was not at the level that you were at when you began rebel columbia and it hasn't grown with me - anyway it just really. i really like that you're still going and like rebel columbia is still standout but i bet the sequels with the time and age and practice you've had since then are even better and i still want to read them fr, one day. i'll get there.
oh and i remember too i think you used to go back and like retroactively edit the plot holes so that you could change things but it all adjusted in real time? you're still insane for that. you posting saying that you'd edited specific details over a span of like 20 chapters is my roman empire.
anyway, hi. you're super cool. thanks for being like, a rolemodel or whatever in my development as a writer. and my friend, i'm pretty sure i was still in the tail end of my annoying teen on the internet age when we talked regularly. also we're still friends if you do remember me, no friendship degradation we're cool, i feel like this sounds like we'll never talk again 😂
aww of course i remember you 😭😭😭 i got all teared up reading this, this is one of the nicest things anyone’s ever said to me!
rebel columbia has always been my passion project, but it wouldn’t have gotten as far as it has without the influence and contributions of friends and fellow writers 🤗 you were one of the first people i really got to talk to about it, and it really helped me develop my ideas and probably make some edits lol, its a constantly evolving project haha (i never wanted to upload a new chapter before i made all the retroactive edits i had in mind)
and of course we’ll always be friends 💜 i’d love to chat again, whether its about writing or marvel or anything else that’s interests us now after all these years lmao
