I love Tao Ran and LWZ friendship so much, I ‘m still thinking at this piece of cake who need an intere month to figure out his friend was gay and the first thing he says was: “your dad will be mad”.

You can’t love Tao Ran you litterally can’t!

[cosmic-carpals]

thinking again about fei du showing off to xiao haiyang as soon as he and lwz get together for real. like please notice i'm driving your boss's car and replacing his air freshener because i don't like it. please ask me why i've been feeding his cat. please ask whose house i've dragged you to and why i'm so comfortable in it. please ask if we're living together. he can't wait to brag about it.

the suggestive way LWZ lifts his eyebrows when he says they're about to do something against the rules

the way Pei su looks down at LWZ's lips when LWZ tells him to close his eyes

the way LWZ smiles after he leans to check that Pei su has his eyes closed

AND PEI SU OPENS HIS MOUTH AND HIS EYELIDS FLUTTER WHEN SOMETHING TOUCHES HIS LIPS

Things I remember your writings for: the addict Aomine fic, especially his line "I have many values and I live by none of them", the visual of Kagami smoking, the mindblowing concept of trans Kagami, and that one scene in LWZ when Akashi shoots Aomine in the kneecap. Oh My God. ALSO it's random but you're the only person who ever wrote Himuro in a way that he didn't annoy me to no end, and for that you're a wizard, Shin

YEEESS!! Thanks so much for taking the time to send specific details! I’m so glad my writing was able to have such an impact on you, and that you’ve been enjoying what you’ve been reading ^^

The boys smoking is kinda... still a guilty pleasure of mine lol that’s one thing GWGE got away with that’s usually so difficult to justify (tho I suppose that one trans Kagami fic did in a way). Speaking of trans Kagami, that remains a concept that’s very near and dear to my heart, and one I’m definitely not done exploring yet!! I have things left to say and emotions left to project lmao.

Tbh I’m Stoked that the moment you took away from LWZ is Aomine getting shot. I stand by that scene to this day the build of tension is something I worked really hard to pull off, good shit. ...And I’ve been known to handle Himuro a number of ways in different fics but I’m glad what you have read is working for you ahaha ^^

Thanks again for sending such detailed feedback, I... honestly don’t know what to do with the deluge of comments and compliments but at the same time I’m loving it, you’re the best and so sweet seriously <333
