Ah shit! We have the same name! [Also this has nothing to do with the ask, but I fucking love your work!!!!!]

WOOOO !!! dude, i knew sydney was sort of a common name, but i didn't realize how common until i started studying at starbucks in my freshman year of college and they called the name like 20 times within one hour and they were all different girls 🥲

and thank you so much !! i'm glad u enjoy it :'D

omg!! I’ve been trying to find out, since I started reading your fics, what dynamic Henry and the reader remind me of... Jane and Tarzan

Oh my! What a compliment 👀 well I do love me some primal play with an undertone of protective feral man!! Thank you, my dear.

Hey! I Hope you have a good day/night. I just wanna say thank you so much for writing Steel City, I love it so much, too much I’d say.. Tonight’s gonna be the 3rd time, me reading it. Umm.. I guess it became my comfort fics? It really helps me get through the day and when I’m down and all... But anyways.. AGAIN, THANK YOU THANK YOU SO SO MUCH! I love your work and bless you!

ANON! Thank YOU for this wonderful message on a chilly Friday afternoon.  THREE TIMES? That’s so many!  I’ll admit that that story changed a TON from when I first wanted to write it to what the end result is. It was supposed to be a silly little Christmas story, and it turned into ... well, the monster that it is now. But knowing that someone has read it multiple times? That means everything to me. And I cannot thank you enough for finding it and reading it in the first place ... but especially for coming back to it time and time again.  Billy’s always going to have such a special place in my heart, and I’m glad that you like *that* version of him so much. Thanks for reading. Thanks for reaching out. And thank you for loving Billy Russo. Have a good weekend!

dear syd, also known as reidsacademia on tumblr

i, loren, also known as moderatelydelusional on tumblr, am writing to you with a question. I love your blog so much, i love you new blog 500daysofsyd so much, and i like your other blog, but i won’t name it because this is a family show. I also really love your writing. Youre a great writer. Like, a really great writer. If you wrote books i would buy them for me and my family and friends and read them every day.

anyway. i’ll get to the point.

*turns paper over*

my question is how do i be like you? and can you please teach me how to be aesthetic as you?

thank you.

from your friend, loren.

dear loren, also known as moderatelydelusional on tumblr,

what did i do to deserve this message of such high praise in my inbox 😭💗 i couldn't thank u enough for supporting me and my writing, because i also very much love YOU !! you've never been anything but kind to me (+ so much more) and i love the concepts and analysis that come out of that beautiful brain of urs !! no like really, u must function on a different level than i do bc my simple brain could never 😵‍💫

even if i did know how to tell u to be like me, you wouldn't need the tips bc ur already amazing in ur perfect, very loren state, and i can assure u that my life is only about a fraction of aesthetic than it probably seems xoxoxo

much love for u always.

your friend, syd.

p.s. how did u like spencer x kitty, if u got to read it ? :D

*sets down quill and folds hands on the table* *smiles*

[nostalgicmess]

okay “you’ve got mail” is my new favorite thing to ever exist. the whole spencer x kitty idea? & the way jinx just immediately went onto his couch OHMYGOD. & the whole time i was WAITING for the owner to meet him omg. i swear this is going to be my new daily read for a while because omg omg you don’t understand how obsessed i am. please don’t ever doubt your writing again, it’s absolutely beautiful! i was going to go anon but i’m lazy & you deserve the praise “in-person” <3

HAHAH, thank u for telling me this personally, i extremely appreciate it 💝💘💖💓💗💞 i’m glad u enjoyed it !! it was an unexpectedly frustrating, but fun concept to write :D

[nostalgicmess]

thank u !! 🥺 that means so much to me, truly, and i’m so glad that u enjoyed it <3

[nostalgicmess]

i know you looked at our convo and saw the lil red bubble with like 40 new messages

and i know you thought 'omfg this bitch rn'

but thats what you get syd

thats what you get for writing such an incredible fic that made me feel super angry at a character i love

so

there

you have only yourself to blame

<3

THAT WAS LITERALLY THE BEST THING TO WAKE UP TO HAHAHA

the rage you felt ?? the redbull break ?? the alternate ending, LOREN PLEASE LMAO - “this better end with his girlfriend dying and spencers dick coming off or im rewriting it” - i was nearly in tears from laughing when i read your messages back lol, thank you for that experience, i loved every single message <3

i’m sorry i made you super angry, but i’m glad u liked it!! everything went according to plan >:)

First, I would like to let you know that you're an incredibly gifted writer. I would also like someone to send the Hoe Removal Service over here to pick up my hoe ass and release me back into the wild where there are no interwebs to destroy my life with smut. #stalkerwalker (!!!) Jesus Mary and Joseph.. I'm pretty sure I just went dumb.

Awww babe! I’m going to sleep with a smile thanks to you.

And why yes

Stalker Walker sends his regards 😈👌🏻
