i think one of the most important things you learn about making connections with others is that a significant portion of the time people just do not know theyre doing what theyre doing

this obliterated me

will: “sometimes I think it’s just scary to open up like that. to say how you really feel. especially to people you care about the most. because what if they don’t like the truth?”

[apvllos]

Haha yeah!! (I didn’t understand a single thing you just said)

glad that people are rightfully stanning the queen Kate Bush, but I must remind you all that she has never apologized for startling Sufjan Stevens

deleting my dating apps because I want to meet someone the old fashioned way (he touches his cold beer bottle to my collarbone and I kiss him at his wife's birthday party)

thinking about james and lily and how they loved each other, where late night conversations turn into the early hours of the morning with copious amounts of tea and hands playing with hair and the loose threads of jumpers, hanging back to wait and chat some more touch some more in ways oblivious perhaps to themselves but not to anyone with eyes, picking out the parts of the dinner that the other doesn't like and learning how to perfect the spice of soups and curries together, notes left on pillows in books with flowers on mirrors and treasure hunts of inside jokes and i can't believe you remembered that i said that, an attitude of i love who i am when i'm around you and i didn't know that home could become a person you make me want to go back to the pursuits of my childhood to explore new things to grow in loving you loving myself loving our little life together

hello lovely i hope you're having a good day! this is going to be soppy so i'm sorry in advance but i just wanted to message and say thank you for ct - the hard work that goes into it is SO clear (though i doubt i know the half of it) and it really really pays off because it's absolutely brilliant.

i started reading ct maybe mid 2020? i'd say probably august/september time, and since then it's seen me through so many massive life changes it's so weird!! i just wanted to encourage you in that writing is something you are so so so good at, and i know i'm not the only one who has felt it really support them when things have been rough. i started uni in sep 2021, and your story and characters have been such a source of comfort for me when things have been difficult. without getting into it, just know that you've done more than you know. <3.

please continue to take all the time you need to take care of yourself and only publish what you're happy with - i've seen you post some asks that rush you about the next update and that's not fair at all. when it comes it'll be sick. have faith in yourself :))

ok sorry i'll stop rambling now ahahah sending all my love! cannot thank you enough for writing and posting this masterpiece

grace, this is so so lovely! thank you so much!!!! not entirely sure what i did to deserve such a compliment HAHAHHA. it is very kind of you to reach out, but rest assured that pestery ask is so far out of my mind right now. i have lots going on (not in a bad way, just in a busy way!) so writing has taken a bit of a backseat, but i'm not bothered — i know these chapters work best when i don't force them (to a degree...)

but yeah this story has stuck with me too through some ... bizarre life events, of course. i know that to some extent we all like, Lived and Are Living In This Time together, so obviously we all have that in common, but it tickles me and comforts me both to know that we've, like, lived through this and also that some of you are like ?? reading my words as we do ?? idk i'm making no sense and just saying exactly what you said to me but less eloquently HAHHAA but you get me, right?

anyway, thank you, this has brightened up my wednesday a ton, and i hope your week is lovely 💌
