Good morning Tea! How are you today? I'm hoping to read your new F1 fic today. Not a huge fan myself, but one of my coworkers watches F1 so I know a little bit, and I asked a friend of mine here about it so I feel like I have enough context to dive in (or drive in lol)

I'm doing amazing!! Sorry I'm only answering now but like this I can wish you a happy international women's day!! The first f1 race was today and although it wasn't exactly what I would have wanted it to be I still really enjoyed it. I hope you can have fun with the fic! And don't worry, I think not much context will be needed :]

Now that Dreaming of a Different Time is done I already have the next multi chapter fic in mind. It's an idea I have had for a long time now and am very excited about getting started, however, in the near future I'll be very busy with irl stuff and since I want to really take my time with this fic to make it good I'll be holding out on starting to post weekly again. At the same time I really don’t want to lose my over two year posting streak on ao3 so I'll try to continue writing one shots in the mean time. Not all of them will be dnf/for this fandom so if you don’t care about that stuff I totally understand! I'll be back with dnf hopefully soon 🫡💚💙

i loved ur fic dreaming of a different time! never really knew much about ballet and it's cool to learn from this. wondering if theres a full video of the zephyr flora they were dancing to? for some reason i cant find much online :'(

I'm glad you liked it! This is the only reference I have of the actual dance. The ballet itself is really old and not at all from the golden age of ballet like all of the well known ones (think the Nutcracker and things like that) so I also didn’t find much about it. In some archives there might be more to find but I was honestly fine just making things up so take anything I wrote about ballet with a little grain of salt

Thank you for reading though 💚💚

Happy Valentine's day Pen!! I appreciate your friendship so much and am so happy that we were able to connect thanks to this fandom 🫶🫶 I love your fics infinitely 💚💙💚💙

Love you too 🎀🎀

Good morning, Tea! I woke up and smiled because it's doadt epilogue day 🥹

No rush though. I'll be patient. I actually have a little something I'm working on for tomorrow that I think you'll really enjoy

I just posted it! I can’t belive I'm actually done with it now 😖😖 I've been writing this spesific universe for so long now I don't even know how to get started on something new 🫠 (not so say that I don't have plenty ideas 👀)

I'm very excited to see what you have cooked up!! Valentine's day is a great excuse to consume even more dnf then normal, and I actually also prepared a little surprise for tomorrow (not a fic tho 🤭🤭) so I hope you keep your eyes open for that too 💚💙

I'm sorry you're coming down with a cold, I've been battling one on and off for the past two months and I'm so sick of it (no pun intended). I hope you feel better soon!

I hope so too 🤧 it's really annoying. I hope you get better soon as well! In the mean time I'll be brainstorming new fic ideas 👀👀🤭

Good morning/afternoon, Tea! How are you today?

Still thinking of that latest chapter btw. I've read it three times so far and I'll probably read it again today because it's so good :)

Hi Pen!! I'm coming down with a cold at the moment so I could be doing better but all in all I'm quite well, how are you? I am so glad you enjoyed the chapter 😭😭 I loved this fic so much and I was scared the final chapter wouldn't live up to my expectation so I am so happy you liked it so much <3<3

[darlingtea404]

Good morning to you, Tea, I hope you're doing well. Just wanted to thank you for your support and kindness this past week while I've been dealing with some pretty heavy stuff.

I might not be completely back to my usual self, but I made some progress and I'm slowly getting there 🫂🩷

(side note, I hope my angst fic wasn't too angsty for you and if it was I apologize)

No problem Pen!! If you ever need anything my DMs are always open 🫂🫂 take all the time you need to take care of yourself. Also, I will admit reading angst like that from you was a bit unexpected, that's why I haven't finished it yet but I hope to get to it soon and I think it's amazing seeing you branch out more 💚💚
