Everyone else got sappy, I guess it’s my turn too.
2023 brought me so many things I never expected but am so terribly grateful for.
Close to the beginning of the year I became a fan of BTS and went on a spiral from there. Instagram was SO determined that I at least give them a shot and now here I am at the end of the year multistanning and continuing to cry about pretty people with the sweetest, most generous people I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know.
My boo, the love of my life, and the one who spoils me with content of my faves. Who knew that taking a chance on an unfinished fic would bring me one of the best people I’ve been fortunate to get to know and call my bestie.
You’re always SO encouraging, helpful and generous. I don’t think I would be as far as I am with so many works without you. The fact that you’re always trying to hype me up and how you’re always there for me even when I’m in the depths of my low. 2023 has brought me many great things but I think you’re the best.
Rei. Oh Rei. You were my first proper fandom friend and one of the reasons I picked up writing again after 2+ years and the trauma that came with my old horribly toxic writing community. I remember when I first started binging fic, your uploads were something I really looked forward. I remember binging everything you wrote and how you were one maybe the first person I went “I’m going to comment on the fics I really like. I want to be commenter I wish I got.” And boy it hasn’t let me down.
I love reading your stories, I want to cry every time you take time to write a comment on my fics. I love that you’re always checking on me and how you’re one of my biggest cheerleaders.
Thank you, endlessly for being my friend.
Oh sapling, I love you. I love talking to you and hearing about your day or the things you feel. I love getting to read your stuff and see how much you’ve grown and how it tugs on my heart strings.
Who knew a murderous boy with blue hair would change my life? I’m so grateful Sprout messaged you and mentioned me. Thank you for being unapologetically you, for always being a willing ear, and for being insane with the amount you write.
Justine! Thank you for being willing to look over my sports!jin draft and for starting a collab that brought so many wonderful people in my life. I’m forever impressed by your graphics and your smaus. Here’s to another year!
Honorable mention for the NOSE fiasco that will never leave me alone. Also for giving me fun fic ideas and thirsting of SKZ with me.
Honorable mention of Jiya,
My sweetest sprout who I am forever proud of. You’re not on tumblr anymore but I’m sharing this nonetheless because I’m always thinking of you and we have so many mutuals.
This doesn’t even begin to really include everyone without being too wordy and ngl I’m a little high so words are hard anyway. If we’ve ever interacted, you’ve ever left a comment, kudos, like, whatever. I’m so grateful for you 💜
