It is crushing to have to say, that Sun, known as @sundial-at-night in the community, passed away on 19th of February, from heart failure. She went in her sleep.
Sun was amazing in every way. Her power of will - unmatched. Her energy - literally sunshine. What ever she pursued, she dedicated her entire self to. She found joy in all corners of the life that was unfair to her since birth. She had big beautiful plans.
If you want to appreciate the works Sun put incredible passion and excitement into, here’s her Ao3. You might know her crimeboys centric fics, “New Deceit’s an Old Design” series, the Hunger Games au, the Dust Bowl au, the big marvel fic “Let Me Know if It Gets Above a Six”. Her side blog is @tiny-cacti-magnet. Spreading of this post is very appreciated
Being connected to people via fandoms, creating and being recognised was crucial in the last years of her life. Sun fought hard to escape the choking confines of the culture she grew up in, every word of hers you’re reading is an achievement in ways you don’t know. She didn’t get enough time to run away physically, in the end, but her mind and her art was free.
Every piece of her that is left in any one of her readers’ minds is priceless. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for perceiving her, for giving her feedback, for leaving a like, for making her smile, for making her happy.
We were each other’s soulmates and future. She was the love of my life. She inspired me like no one before her did, and most prominent instances weren’t even fandom related. Sun made me want to fight for a life I was excited to live. That fight is gone, now. But I want her stories to be forever.
