One day I wanna be able to sit somewhere I can see you write, not so close, just somewhere near enough. I want to see you pluck words out of thin air and string them together like a daisy chain. Perhaps I'll be inspired and one day learn to find where these pretty words and structure come from.

:)

There's really nothing to see. XD I rarely write with pen and paper anymore so you can't even be amused by my lid-chewing. I mostly lounge around with my laptop and a Magnum and tap out bundles of words between ad breaks. Not particularly inspiring, haha. As for structure, I have no idea. I would say childhood voracity for reading, but I do Bad Things to grammar, so...

yes my smileys are inverted (:

I still wanna watch cos I've no childhood.

OKAY HERE I GO.

Let me just say that this beautiful work of art cheered me up immensely at a time when I needed cheering up the most. I've just broken up with my bf of 3++ years as you've read, and I felt so depressed (I still do, but I'm working hard on being strong for myself now and picking up what's left of my life). OK I JUST REALLY WANTED TO SAY the ending is so beautiful ( actually the entire fic is, but the ending just hit me like a bullet) ;w; I read this like 15 times already, lmao I can kind of quote from it now :D /creepermode

Still, perhaps it's easier to place faith in clockwork things. People prefer the certainty of train timetables over the occasional answered prayer for rain, and the sporadic letters of relatives stranded in war zones. Better to know you'll be disappointed than to hope and fall apart.

This made me go "baaww", it's exactly how I'm feeling right now. OKAY I AM STILL AT A LOSS FOR WORDS, I'M SORRY, BUT I REALLY REALLY LOVE THIS.

REALLY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH <333

The reason I was hesitant to mention this over on your journal is it's sort of nine parts bittersweet, and considering what you're going through, I really didn't think it would help your mood. It looks like I was right too. XD; I'm a little weird in that I bury myself in sobfest films when I'm down but I thought that a love story is the last thing you'd want to be reading at the moment- so I'm really glad that this cheered you up. You tell me if you need any virtual hugs ok? ♥

Aww it's really so sweet of you to consider my feelings the way you do, do not worry about it because getting this wonderful a present cheered me up immensely (regardless of the bittersweetness of the content) :D AND ME BAWWING ABOUT THIS IS A GOOD THING, I was just.. well, really touched by it, it was just moving and it had nothing to do with what's happening to me now rofl♥ I'm actually pretty weird when it comes to love things, like even if my own relationships are going down the drain, I enjoy seeing happy endings happen to other people. I-I can't explain it ;w;

AND THIS OFFER OF A VIRTUAL HUG IS VERY MUCH WANTED AND ACCEPTED /hugs many times back in return♥♥♥
