Hi! I'm not sure if you're on here much these days, but I wanted to drop by just in case and let you know how much I adore Sunshine. It's such a beautiful story and oh god, you just kill me with these two. I was wondering if you had any plans to continue the story (no worries if not; I love what you've given already!) and if not, could you give some insight as to how the story would have gone? Or maybe answer some questions I've got? Thanks again for all your wonderful words!
I don’t really visit tumblr much anymore, except to keep up with a few mutuals. But thank you for this message sweetheart, I really appreciate.
As for Sunshine, it’s funny because I finished the latest chapter of it several months ago. It and AAFS actually. But I can’t bring myself to edit and post it. The joy I had in writing these stories was outweighed by the amount of stress and anxiety they also provided. I don’t know if I’ll continue either of them despite how much I love them. I hate leaving them unfinished but as of right now, I don’t have any future releases in mind. It doesn’t help that work sapped most of my time and energy for things that aren’t work-related. Plus, I’ve recently started school again, so that’s another notch in my time.
Couple that with my usual issues with chronic pain and mental illnesses (I’ve been going back and forth on changing medications for a while now and doctor appointments aren’t stress-free ugh), things haven’t looked great concerning my writing hobby.
There were several months where using my hands became a huge trouble. I struggled with opening door knobs and handling items at work enough for coworkers to start doing it for me at times.
Also, it has been a very, very long time since I’ve found joy in things Frozen-related. Even before I dropped off the face of the earth I had been struggling with enjoying Frozen stuff (and I mean way before).
That said, I hate that my stories are unfinished. And I miss writing small canon oneshots here and there. I can’t promise anything, but the desire to complete my works is still there.
Anyway, as for releasing information about how Sunshine would have gone, I’d be happy (and honored) to oblige. I might not reveal too many spoilerific things, but if anyone has Sunshine-related questions, they’re more than welcome to ask.
Thank you Nonnie, both for the message and for sharing your thoughts on Sunshine. I really appreciate it.
A/N: Inspired by a recent meeting with my therapist.
Prompt: Impressions
Anna wasn’t sure what she expected. The pretty, slim blonde—Elsa, she had heard—huddled up in the corner was quiet. Even beyond the quiet of newcomers. She had made a certain kind of…impression to Anna. And Anna was annoyed how her brain still jumped and stuck to first impressions, even when they were good first impressions. Sometimes they led to misunderstandings.

Like sitting outside her best friend’s apartment door, drawing snowman on the foul wall, and babbling about.
Maybe it was a good thing (of course it was a good thing) that she was in this group looking for support and weaning off stimulants. Because Anna babbled.
A lot.
Like the occasional question about Elsa.
How was she liking the group? How did she get up the courage to go to group therapy. Did she like chocolate donuts Anna always brought to meeting? Anna thought so. Hoped so.
Elsa never left their meetings without leaving a thank you note to Anna for the donuts. Even if Anna hadn’t seen her taken one or even moved to the table.
Okay, so maybe Anna had expected Elsa to be soft and gentle. Elegant. The way Anna’s Nana had been when Anna was small enough to sit in her lap and beg for stories about Norway. Anna only remembered snowy mountain peaks before they moved.
But the quiet and the elegance, the snow-like skin and intense blue eyes. The cursive letters and small pink notes.
It all went out the window when Anna came to their Wednesday sessioon, slumping in her seat and blowing her nose into her sleeve. Puffy red eyes, spit, and thick wads of mucus covered her sleeve.
“Ew.”
Anna’s cheeks had burned with more than just fever. Then Elsa had paled when she realized what she had said. Her hands slapped across her mouth and her eyes widened. She looked like a deer Anna had seen as a tiny young thing, ready to bolt.
Anna, even off stimulants, could really talk.
“I know, it’s gross!” she whined. She wiped her nose again, eyes tearing up. “Stupid flu going around. Or fever. Or bug. Or whatever science calls it. I’m sorry, you’re probably wondering why I came today? Like, ‘Ugh, gross. Why would she come to a place where lots of people meet and share the air?’ Yeah, I know it sounds bad, but I’ve been having a rough week and I really, really needed to come today and—” Anna hiccuped and stopped. Her ears felt like a volcano and she tried to flash Elsa an apologetic grin, but Elsa remained frozen. Hands over her mouth and eyes wide.
Anna faltered. Why did she have to fumble around pretty girls so much?
But before she could dwell on it, Elsa dropped her hands and started fiddling in her purse. Anna blinked as a baby-blue handkerchief was all but shoved in her face.
“Anna, if you’re going to be stubborn about coming to meetings when you’re dripping snot everywhere and having trouble sitting up straight, then at least bring something to blow your nose with.”
Anna’s mouth dropped. Elsa pursed her lips, blue eyes hardening like chips of eye. The intensity had returned. But more like a howling blizzard than the freshly fallen snow Anna had started associating Elsa with.
Then Anna’s heartbeat quickened. Elsa had remembered her name. Her name. And she sounded worried. She sounded like she cared. Anna ducked her head and took the handkerchief with shaky fingers. She blew into and tried not to blush harder when Elsa’s expression softened and the edge of her lips twitched into a smile.
“Thank you, uh—” Anna started and stopped, cheeks as red as hair now.
Elsa crossed her arms over her torso and gave a half-shrug, that tiny smile still there. “You can call me Elsa.”
Anna bit her lip to prevent herself from grinning ear to ear. “Thank you Elsa.”
Elsa’s smile widened, her eyes twinkled, and a faint pink bloomed on her cheeks.
It was the first of many, many moments where Anna’s pulse quickened after making Elsa happy.
every au EA fic that keeps the act of true love in film as an act (something Anna does, often a sacrifice for the sake of others) adds 10 years to my life
honestly not fond when people just go back to the whole true love’s kiss ordeal. Frozen did fantastic at the one act thing
considering the flashback bell ringing scene has Anna without her white stripe, it’s obviously before the accident. which means, this is one of the last times the Royal Family was that happy.
it also means (considering Anna’s words in the special) Anna never got to ring the bell with her parents...
Hi there! absolutely random question but do you read comics? I'm just absolutely buzzing about this comic and I wanted to recommend it to you because cute 90s girls crushing on each other!!! it's this thing called "Hi-Fi Fight Club" and it's about Chris who's a 17 year old girl working at a vinyl store crushing on her co-worker Maggie who, as spoiled by the title itself, is actually in a Crime Fighting Fight Club, it's just so!!! the setting is 1998 New Jersey
I love comics Nonnie, so I’ll definitely check this out! Thank you for the recommendation~ ♥

It's a metaphor for how she grew up too fast?
That crossed my mind, but eh, to me Elsa very much felt like a child throughout the whole DYWBaS sequence. And she felt like a teenager too. I think Disney did a good job portraying kids and their emotional depth with the girls when they were younger.
I can see them portraying her thinking that, but it strikes me as odd for them to forgoe the tiny, tiny gloves since I think that would’ve been more emotionally significant than her adult gloves. We already saw a resolution to the adult gloves in the film, I think a visual reminder that she had them as a child would’ve been better.

Maybe the younger ones are on the bottom?
That crossed my mind too before I quickly discarded the idea. Smaller clothes under larger ones (even if they have the same basic shape and model) would eventually lead to toppling if not a leaning-tower-of-silky-what-happened-to-the-color-white-teal gloves. They wouldn’t be so straight and undisturbed if the small gloves were on the bottom.
