DAMN! thirty four?!?! thats crazyyy sometimes i forget that older people too write fanfics
Hahaha, yeah. And I’ve been writing since I was fourteen. More people than you realize, are older that write fanfic. Fandom started back in the ‘60s and and ‘70s. There are people older than me in fandom. ;)

BEAUTIFUL PERSON AWARD! Once you are given this award you're supposed to paste it in the asks of 8 people who deserve it. If you break the chain nothing happens, but it's sweet to know someone thinks you're beautiful inside and out 💗
It shouldn’t be any surprise that you’d get this award back 😉 I found your stories when a lot of things weren’t going well and the way they made the world feel a lot less cold was a precious gift. How this site is set up, I know it’s not always easy to tell when a story has had a profound effect on someone; but I can assure you that your every story touches lives and they have very deeply touched mine 🥹
You’re so sweet. I never stop to think my writing has an effect on anyone, because I always think I can do better, or this writer executed that idea better than I did. I struggle with imposter syndrome, unfortunately.
You’ve been a blessing, too. The last year has been really hard, so I often write to get my feelings out. And your reviews always make me smile!
I’m so glad that my writing made your difficulties easier. ❤️
it wild to me that there are people out there who aren't interested in history
like wdym you don't think about the fact that women would tell stories as they made butter in the same way we listen to podcasts today? wdym you don't think about that one Chinese poet who wrote about how much he loved his cats hundreds of years ago? wdym you don't think about the fact that we found a gravesite of a young child surrounded by flowers from THOUSANDS of years ago? wdym you don't think about how people wrote "i was here" into the walls in Pompeii? wdym you don't think about the little egyptian boy who drew little doodles at the top of his school works more then a thousand years ago?
wdym you don't think about the fact that people, no matter the place, time, or social status, are fundamentally no different from you. that they loved the same as you, enjoyed the same things you did, dreamed about a better life the same way you did. that despite how seemingly detached you are from these people, in time, place, and culture, the things you do and what u are is so undeniably human that it transcends time and space
It reminds me of going to the beach with my dad in his VW Bug with the top rolled down. I’d sea4ch the beach for sea shells and bring them to him. ♥️

“he’s killed people” ok but have you considered that he did it in a hot pathetic way.

“How’s things going with Billy?” asked Curtis, as you took a bite of your dorito taco. You were having a lunch date with him. He was your very first friend before Billy. You adored Curtis. He had found you on the streets, being attacked by several thugs. It took weeks to nurse you back to health.
Your boyfriend had kicked you out after cheating on you. Life had been hard after being in the system. He knew Billy would understand.
“Good,” you said happily after swallowing, “Billy’s sweet to me.”
Curtis laughed, raising an eyebrow.
“What?” You asked, curious.
“It’s just that I wouldn’t describe Billy as sweet.” Curtis said, taking a drink of his soda.
“He lets me sleep with him.” You told Curtis, smiling softly.
Curtis’ eyebrows shot up. “Oh?”
You nodded, “I had a nightmare the first night after you left me there. He let me in his bed, and held me. After that I kept sneaking in. So when we were at the bar last weekend, he said I could sleep with him whenever I wanted if I could hit the bullseye at darts.” You explained, finishing off your taco, and digging into your cinnamon dessert. This place was your favorite to eat at, and that was why Curtis brought you here. His treat.
Right now you worked at a library even though Billy insisted he could take care of you. You liked independence, though, and you were cautious.
Your ex had left you with nothing; you wanted the security in case anything went sour. You weren’t going to be defenseless again.
“And did you?” Curtis asked, cautiously.
“Uh huh!” You grinned, “I sleep with him every night now.” You missed the look of concern on Curtis’ face, but when you looked at him, he smiled and ruffled your hair.
He needed to talk to Billy. He loved his brother, but Billy was a known womanizer.
After that he asked how your work at the library was going, and listened to you chatter about that, and the cranky old lady you worked with.
“She’s so crusty!” You had said, rolling your eyes playfully.
Curtis laughed. And despite worrying about Billy, Curtis could tell he was having a good influence on you.
You’d been skittish when Curtis first found you, and now you seemed open and light hearted.
Still, he needed to hear from Billy that he wasn’t going to just drop you, and move on.

Curtis appeared at the penthouse a few nights later. “Can I talk to you, Billy?” He asked, and Billy frowned. It was clear Curtis wasn’t there for drinks.
“Sure, give me a minute.” Billy said, leaving Curtis in the living room.
He looked around the corner and into Billy’s bedroom. He was tucking you into bed, kissing your forehead, saying: “I’m gonna talk to Curt. I’ll be in, in a little bit.” His fingers squeezed your hips before letting go, a soft smile on his face.
Curtis was stunned. Billy was a hard man, not known for being soft. He made his living out of violence, and enjoyed it to some degree. It was why he was good at what he did. It was why Curtis placed you with Billy. He could protect you. But here he was being gentle with you.
Billy shut the door coming back out, stuffing his hands in the pockets of his sweatpants. “So, want a beer?” Billy asked.
“Nah, listen Billy, I'm here for her.” Curtis said, not bothering to beat around the bush.
Billy’s stomach dropped. Was Curtis taking you away? He’d gotten attached to you in the short amount of time he had you. He hated attachments yet here he was, afraid you were being taken from him. If he was, Billy wasn’t letting you go without a fight. “Yeah?”
“What are your intentions with her? She really likes you, and the men in her life haven’t treated her well.” Curtis said, stance rigid.
“What do you mean they haven’t?” Billy asked, ready to murder anyone who’d hurt you. It wasn’t hard to imagine someone hurting you, you were exceptionally kind and gentle. It wasn’t hard to rip the wings off a butterfly.
“Her boyfriend used her until he was done with her, before kicking her out onto the streets. Her dad used to beat her pretty bad, too. The pictures I’ve seen from police reports are pretty bad, Billy. I feel like her father has set a precedent for every man she’s encountered.” Curtis said, making Billy see red.
“Her mother was the only refuge she had. And I’m worried she’s finding refuge in you, and you’ll grow bored of her.” The tension was thick in the room, Curtis just wanted the best for you.
“I’m not gonna throw her aside, Curt.” Billy said through gritted teeth, angry at both what your father and boyfriend did to you, and Curtis’ implications. “I know what it’s like to be thrown away. Better than anyone else. Better than you. You forget, I lived in the system. My ma didn’t exactly want me.” Billy said bitterly.
“So—“
Billy cut him off, rolling his shoulder, “She’s mine, I’m not letting her go.” He said leaving no room for discussion.
Curtis stared at him for a moment, stance softening. He understood this was Billy’s way of saying he cared for you, “Just so long as her best interests are at heart.” He said. “Because the minute I think they aren’t—“
“They are.” Billy said, jaw ticking.
Curtis nodded, before leaving Billy standing there wondering how you’d wormed your way into his heart.

Billy crawled in with you that night, wrapping his arms around you, his insides melting when you rolled over and snuggled against him, cheek pressed to his chest,
He meant what he said to Curtis, he wasn’t letting you go. He understood Curtis cared for you, it was easy as Billy found out.
But Billy would rather chew off his own leg, than hurt you.
He slept that night, vowing to always keep you safe, to kill your enemies, and to be their worst nightmare.
