House of old fanfic and new stories

It has been a long, long, time. As I'm not in the OL fandom anymore and I haven't found something to be truly passionate about since then, I've mostly stayed away from Tumblr.

You might have heard through the grapevine that I have deleted all my OL fanfics, both from here and from AO3. That is true. It was a personal decision and nothing related with foul play, plagiarism from my part or anything shady. I just don't want my fics out there in the fandom, when I'm not here to take care of them anymore.

I'm sorry if this is disappointing in any way. I hope you understand and will remember them as fondly as I do.

Love,

Kal

Romance was entirely out of the question for both of us. But in so removing it we found something far greater, we found friendship.

The young lady flatters me, but it was not love at first sight for either of us. There was attraction, certainly, at least on my part, but Miss Bridgerton thought me presumptuous, arrogant, insincere, all fair really. And I thought her a prim young lady barely out of her leading strings. Not to mention the sister of my best friend, and so romance was entirely out of the question for both of us. But in so removing it we found something far greater, we found friendship.

To meet a beautiful woman is one thing, but to meet your best friend in the most beautiful of women is something entirely apart.

And I cannot continue acting as if I… as if I do not love you. Because I do. I love all of you. Even the parts that you believe are too dark and too shameful. Every scar. Every flaw. Every imperfection. I love you. You may think you are too damaged and too broken to ever allow yourself to be happy, but you can choose differently, Simon. You can choose to love me as much as I love you. That should not be up to anyone else. That cannot be up to anyone else. It can only be up to you.

Me watching two characters in a modern tv show have sex: Huh okay

Me watching two characters in a period drama let the backs of their hands lightly brush in a moment of emotional intimacy so intense they can’t meet each others’ eyes:

I must ask if you had a specific song(s) in mind for the club scene? In reading multiple times different songs pop in my head for the background and was just curious ... ❤️

Hey sweets! Sorry for taking me a while to answer this, but I had a crazy week at work and haven’t been online much at all. 

I didn’t have a specific song in mind for the club scene between Ophelia and Hector, but I listened to a few on repeat as I wrote the chapter: Florence + The Machine - Cosmic Love // Muse - Madness // Billie Eilish - I love you. Curious to know the ones that came to you! ❤️

Hi Kal, I want to recommend a book to you that I believe you will love. Virgin River by Robyn Carr. The male protagonist is the most wonderful man ever! It’s such a feel-good romance. I hope you decide to read it and enjoy it as much as I did.

Hello darling! Thank you for this rec, will definitely look into it and include it in my TBR list! :)) I’m touched that you thought of me to share this rec with. ❤️

Kal, I’m loving DS! So glad you’re writing something other than OL as I love your writing and I’m completely over J&C / OL. Normal People is now my jam. I can’t get over Daisy and Paul - so talented and their chemistry! I’ve been watching interviews of them and I’m floored by how eloquent and articulate they both are especially considering their ages. When I think back to Sam’s interviews they were all basically the same couple tag lines and a lot of unnecessary sexual innuendos. SMH.

Hey, lovely! I’m glad you’re enjoying DS. It feels good to be connected with my own writing again. I’m done with OL in all the ways a person can be done with a fandom, I think. It still saddens me, but not as much as it did a while back. Yet, to be fair, interviews related to the show were always severely hindered by the spoiler phobia and plug production put on everything. Have a brilliant Sunday! X
