overgrowth 🌿 - what’s a fact about yourself you’ve never had the opportunity to tell? I know how to write lotr elvish! I mean, it's not really correct, because I just transliterate rather than actually translating, but I can write the characters. went through a whole phase where I'd write all sorts of stuff in it, I think I even took notes for class in it once lol!

This might not be totally fair because I remember you telling me a rough estimate of your followers a week or so ago but, is the milestone 200?

you totally had an unfair advantage there lol but yep! it's 200 followers. which is,,that's a lot of people. that's like seven times the size of any of my school classes. so I'm a tiny bit overwhelmed by the fact that so many people are following me!

oh gosh oKAY here we go, this got really long sorry and I kinda went a little outside of the prompt but it's whatever lol

Logan is a student at the college. It's not a huge school, and it's not overly prestigious or fancy, but it's a good school. He's not there for any reason beyond getting his degree-- he's not trying to "find himself", or look for love, or any of that. Going to college was always one of his dreams, and he's got a plan, and he's going to stick to it.

So, naturally, all of that goes out the window when he meets Janus. Janus, the cute barista at the campus coffeeshop. There's just something about him-- the slight air of mystery, the way he brushes his hair out of his eyes, the way he laughs at his own jokes. Logan is determined to get to know him better. Fortunately, Logan's best friend Virgil also happens to be good friends with Janus and his roommate Patton (who Virgil maybe has a bit of a crush on but that's not super relevant so we won't go into that).

The dominoes are all lined up for things to fall perfectly into place, and with a little nudge, they do. Logan and Janus become friends, and after about a month, they start dating. Things are going well. Between school, his friends, and his boyfriend, Logan's happier than he thinks he's ever been.

So of course disaster strikes. Two weeks after returning to school from winter break, Logan gets a phone call from his parents. His two teenage brothers got into a car crash-- a really, really bad car crash. Remus got away with only a broken arm and a concussion, but Roman had a severe spinal injury, and things don't look good. They don't know what's going to happen to Roman. But with a sinking feeling, Logan knows exactly what will happen to him.

He leaves college for a week to go home and be with his family-- he's loathe to miss school but it's an emergency. He regrets having to cancel on the date he and Janus had planned for later that week, but he's glad that his boyfriend understood. So he's home with his family, and they're getting through it together. But things aren't improving as quickly as they'd hoped. A week turns into two turns into a month, and on the twenty-seventh day since he left college, he breaks down and cries. He knows there's no way he can go back this semester, or maybe even next-- not with his little brothers in pain, one of them with months of physical therapy ahead if he even hopes to be able to walk again. College was always that one thing he wanted to do, that goal, and it meant so much to him. Going back on that was maybe the most painful thing he'd ever done, but he knew he had to. He calls Janus and explains, wishing there was some other way, knowing there isn't. They agree on being long-distance, and Logan decides to take online classes at home while he helps his family get back on their feet. The sudden, drastic change is difficult. Keeping hope that they'll be able to put back together the broken pieces of what things were is difficult. But Logan knows that, eventually, things will turn out okay.
