so first I wanna say I'm super sorry you're dealing with bullshit right now, and I hope you're able to relax soon. until then, though, feel your feelings! scream into a pillow! cast a spell! I don't know just do what you gotta do and feel valid in doing it!
secondly, I'm about to "wax poetic" (really just ramble) like you asked, but I want you to know that it's actually you who made me see this guy with fresh eyes after not liking him too much at first. I stumbled upon your ao3 one day a couple years ago, read a drabble, and the rest is history. so thank you for that because now I spend my days and nights dreaming of one pro hero by the name of Sir fucking Nighteye.
he's just so tall and lanky with those giant hands he twirls his stamps with. and he's brilliant and strategic, love a man with big brains. and also kind of a little (a lot) weird? that just appeals to me. like the man is my brand of freak, and I love him for it. plus I know he has a wicked sense of humor. like not super outright or punny, but the kind of person who can deliver a ridiculous one-liner with a completely straight face.
anyway I think about him a lot and would like to hold his hand and snuggle into his bony chest.
thank you and feel better 😌
Hello there!
While I didn’t answer this right away (and very, very thankfully, the angering issue has been resolved!) I appreciate this so very much 😭
Nothing has quite the same punch as someone saying “You know, I didn’t like/was ambivalent towards this character, but then this fic changed my mind!”
I still don’t know quite how to react, other than to repeatedly say thank you for telling me, because... Gosh dang, it really is solid motivation for keeping up with writing when anxiety takes hold.
I’m also going to be very truthful: there have been quite a few times where a character is just kind of bland for me, but then I have to get into their mindset to write for them and !! Oh, oh wait there’s that spark! So thank you and anyone who has ever come into my inbox to send me a ficlet prompt, or simply to talk about their favs. Hearing about how passionate someone is always helps bolster my mood (how can anyone resist smiling when someone is rambling & sharing something important to them?? how???)
The lot of you have made BNHA rank very high on my list of comfort media, and just. Excuse me, being quietly emotional over here, lol
Sir Nighteye is yet another side character that has such vast potential & interesting scenes! I would love to get flashbacks in series of him with All Might, or him with Mirio, dangit, like- I get it. We can’t exactly derail things and go off on the side characters journeys when there are so very effing many, and that is totally what fic is for but just!!
Cue an anime style glasses gleam, because I want all that content anyway. 😤
Seriously though, thank you for popping in to send me such a kind message when I was having a hard time. Reacting with anger generally has no place in how I deal with things, and all of these really did help me get a bit of emotional space to keep from lashing out with words I would most definitely have regretted.
