YOU GOT ME CRYING AT 9 AM ON THE BUS!!!!! ON THE WAY TO WORK!!!! HELPPPP!!! hour 19 was EVERYTHING i’ve ever wantedddd!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭 you’re so fucking talented & i hope you never feel anything but 100% proud of your work. the way you DRAG emotions out of me chapter after chapter. we’re getting closer & closer to the 24th hour & as happy as i am to see how everything turns out in the end..i’m also dreading it!! i’m gonna be the saddest person alive when this is over. thank you for giving us the best fic on this app🥹🥹🥹🥹
i’m also dreading the end truthfully!! it’s just… so insane to see what started as a fun fic for me and my friends to turn into what it has — but isn’t that how most fics go? at least mine do.
i definitely don’t always feel proud, per se, of every chapter. there’s always that bit of stage fright that has me freezing up with every new chapter. but you guys are just.. so kind, so giving, that sometimes i do sit back and go “huh… maybe it isn’t the worst thing ever produced.”
It's honestly crazy that discussion around testosterone HRT skews so much towards the beginning stages of it (to the point that you have dozens of guys thinking their transition is "failed" if they don't pass by like a year in lol) and what the initial changes of the first couple of months to years look like, like the classic laundry list of those early basic changes like bottom growth, voice drop, etc, when IMO literally none of that compares remotely to the depth and intensity of the long term total masculinization you start to experience like 3-5+ years in.
sleeping arrangements (not sure tara would ever actually deign to sleep in the same 20ft radius as shovel but who can resist those big shiny insectoid black eyes 🥺)
the companion will go oh god doctor who is that?? and the doctor will get all serious and somber and say listen. he's the most evil creature in the universe. he's the worst enemy i've ever faced. he's horrible and unpredictable and you can never ever let your guard down. and then the villain will walk into the room like this
corrupted godhood. reluctant false messiah. prophecy as a creeping all consuming malady. does the oracle see the future or make the future? the horror of trapping yourself inescapably on purpose. the chains of destiny dragging you towards the path you are fighting tooth and nail to free yourself from. there never having been a chance to begin with. no other choice to make. but making that choice regardless.
Book 2 au: sparring sessions and short hair katara
They like to have sparring sessions in order to keep their bending skills sharp. They allow themselves to go all out and not hold back at all cause they know if anyone got hurt, Katara could just heal them
But anyways, wouldn't it be kinda funny if Zuko accidentally burned Katara's hair tho? Aofkqldkkajfjd
The "I think we can save the hairloops" line is from @linnoya-writes thank you for that!! :>>
