the double take i did earlier today seeing that my inbox had Three messages in it, only to open it up and see Your username and go “ah yes one of my favorite fic writers for orv. wait but i haven’t left a comment yet on their newest fic. wait this is my fic. WAIT THEY’RE ALL…?” needless to say i had to put my phone down and mentally prepare myself to read a multiple-thousand word comment on something i wrote last year by someone who i admire greatly because otherwise i think i would have pulled something.
but anyways. wow. Wow. i do NOT know how to respond to this other than say that i think you just changed my life a little. not like, dramatically, but i’m not the same man who i was when i woke up this morning. seriously.
FIRSTABLY, reading your comment made me feel like a fucking genius. it did! this, however, is Not the case. this fic was born from me rotating post-epilogue snippets within the privacy of my mind palace for months after finishing the novel before eventually opening up a gdoc and seeing how long it would take for me to get jd to kiss the stupid out of each other starting from where chapter 551 left off. the fact that i ended up with something of a jd dissertation was merely a fluke. nonetheless your overwhelmingly thorough praise had me going “wow, maybe i really Did do something there,” but rest assured i made sure to deflate my ego a hair before attempting to reply to you.
unfortunately i’m no alpha chad such as yourself and am incapable of responding to your comment in full, but i do want to say that i’m very happy to hear this fic could hit home for a kdj stan, if only because i am an unrepentant yjh fanboy and i fear that this is painfully obvious by the way this fic is written in particular. i don’t think my reputation will ever fully recover from how hard i projected my silver fox yjh fetish on kdj here, but your comment alone made the social suicide feel almost worth it.
and there are no words in any human language that fully express my gratitude, and only saying thank you feels incredibly lame, but i’m afraid you’re just going to have to forgive me for that. so: thank you, for reading and commenting, you’ve made more than just my day or week.
(for the record, i am tickled PINK by you always referring to me as “izumo-kun” even though he’s not my icon anymore. i remember being so pleasantly surprised the first time you recognized not only me but what my icon was from because awairo emaki is legitimately one of my favorite bl mangas of all time despite its short and sweet nature. ((and i strongly advise for you to keep your hands to yourself in any of our future interactions lest i finally go in to shake your hand and dislocate both of our wrists.))
