HEY UHHH I CAME BACK TO 700 NOTIFS? HUH?
          
          anyway. this account is dead. i will literally never write gawsten content ever again lol. i’m a cosplayer now and have jojo’s bizarre adventure brainrot so... yeah nah. crazy to me people still read my sophomore year stories, though :) WOULD LIKE TO CLEAR SOME STUFF UP FROM MY PAST THOUGH!
          
          a lot of my old work have very (albeit unintentionally) fetish-y themes (see: i promise this is personal’s dynamic of masculine and feminine tropes in queer relationships) or are set in reality (see: a few of my old oneshots) and i would like to just say smth: other people don’t exist for your pleasure! reading fanfiction about real people is all good (as long as they aren’t uncomfortable w it/have clarified it’s cool with them) but there are some lines you shouldn’t cross! all of my work is fictional but have some themes & tropes that looking back on, i DEFINITELY should have reconsider and written with more research and caution.
          
          for newer fans, writers, and readers (or even old creators/consumers who haven’t grasped this yet) please keep in mind that awsten and geoff are real people, one of which who has a kid, and that the relationships you portray between two men directly affect real people. it’s very easy for writing about mlm or wlw to get very fetish-y very quickly and if mlm tell you something is a stereotype or comes off the wrong way, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF PARX LISTEN TO THEM.
          
          i took a step back to look at why my old works are so cringeworthy to me now, scrolled through some bits and i think this is a major reason why. please continue to create but i just wanted my stance on this to be out there. hope you’re all doing well. time to return to my void!

first time i’ve logged on in awhile and i gotta say, i miss y’all. i kinda wanna finish late night accident but i feel like it wouldn’t be as great as what i originally had in store, since i don’t ship gawsten anymore.
          
          but at the same time, i’ve since been through an experience that part two holds so maybe it would. thoughts, anyone?

i'm pretty sure you know how much i adore your writing but i'll say it anyways: i love everything that you've written and i know that i'll continue to, so i'm going to read Literally Everything That You Write, regardless of the ship. 
            imo, it would be beneficial to you as an artist to change the ship to one you're more passionate about, and i don't think there's anything wrong with that. a lot of people read your fics because, yeah, they ship(ped) Gawsten, but also because your writing style is pretty unique and you're damn good at storytelling. i don't think it would really upset anyone if you were to change the ship, so i think you should just do whatever you need to do to love the story and to make sure that you're writing it because you WANT to, not because you don't want to leave it unfinished or because you feel like you have to. 
            
            i love u, and i'll support u wether you finish it or not (obvs bc ur my best friend but still lol) ❤️❤️❤️
