AtOG fic (yup): Gloves & Masks

[rainjoyswriting]

Masks and Gloves, an All the Other Ghosts fic, because fucking hell New York, Jesus, it's not like I can do anything *else*. I may have warped the timeline slightly to do this because obviously when I wrote AtOG and Grey I wasn't expecting a pandemic to hit within the next few years. And I know I have entirely vanished for months (Sorry, ill again

When I saw this in my inbox, it felt like a shot of happiness direct to my heart. This whole verse means so much to me (I'm sure you've heard that a lot) and I reread it every couple of years or so. In fact, I finished Grey again in January. The Australian bushfires were happening at the time and I'm Australian so it was on my mind a lot, but the Ghost and Phalanx gave me courage. I couldn't have imagined then the state the world would be in in just a couple of months. The somber tone of this fits the way everything feels at the moment (everything is so uncertain. I've been really struggling to imagine that this will ever even end, let alone how the world will look on the other side of it.) but it has that spark of hope too, the one that runs through this whole verse. It's always celebrated the small acts of kindness and I think people are really finding that within themselves and others right now. It's a nice reminder that, at the worst moments, we're all still in this together

I wish I could impart to you what an absolute joy it is to read your writing. Finding you had written this one-shot in the ATOG verse is more than I could have ever hoped for. ATOG is one of my favorite stories ever, it is so touching and beautifully written. And this one shot was everything I needed right now in this stressful time. Thank you so much for this glimpse back into your wonderful verse, and for the encouraging words it gave us. So uplifting!

I really wasn’t expecting this. At first I got really excited and then nervous because I knew it wasn’t going to be happy or easy. I can’t decide whether I love it or hate it, I just know I’m thankful. I missed them. Not just Kurt and Blaine, but the Ghost and Phalanx. Thank you. Stay safe.
