“Is that perfume or beer?”
He shrugged, then downed the entire bottle, setting it aside and grimacing. “Perfume.”

I have had a very long day. I am very small. And I have no money. So you can imagine the kind of stress that I am under... I'm gonna go to sleep

guess what bitch. all of the flower asks. if i have to do it, you have to do it
Hahaha, love you too. Asshole.
Alisons: Sexuality? - Hahahaha bold of you to assume I have any clue. I like girls. I like guys. I like nonbinary people. And other people on the spectrum. I’m not pan, idk what though. Plus the label doesn’t really matter.
Amaranth: Pronouns/Gender? - I’m a demiboy, so he/him/his or they/them/theirs. Whichever, it doesn’t really matter. Though I personally feel more masculine.
Amaryllis: Birthday? - Today lol (January 13th)
Anemone: Favorite flower? - Would it be cliche and stupid to say roses? Because those. Weirdly.
Angelonia: Favorite t.v. show? - Damn that’s hard. Between BBC Sherlock, BBC Merlin, Supernatural, Once Upon A Time, and John Mulaney (shut up it counts)
Arum-Lily: What’s the farthest you’d go for a stranger? - It really depends on the situation. I would give away clothing, risk my life, give them shelter in my home, allow them to borrow my phone, but them lunch... I’d do a lot for anyone. Even though I have trust issues.
Aster: What’s one of your favorite quotes? - “Yeah, the asshole who sent me this (love you alex)” - @eyeforaneye-toothforatooth lmao. Truly though? “Your destiny is calling, you better find out what he wants.” and “A half cannot truly hate that which makes it whole.”, both from Merlin, about Merlin and Arthur. They're just so gay.
Aubrieta: Favorite drink? - Tea.
Baby’s Breath: Would you kiss the last person you kissed again? - Meh. Sure. I don’t really care. The one right before that by like 10 seconds, 100%.
Balsam Fir: Have you ever been in love? - Yes. Oh god yes.
Baneberries: Favorite song? - Literally impossible. You are insane.
Basket of Gold: Describe your family. - A disaster. Both biological and chosen. I have 3 little brothers in my chosen family and all of them are younger than me.

Begonia: Favorite color? - Bloodred and black.
Bellflower: Favorite animal? - Wolves. They’re amazing.
Bergenia: Are you a morning or night person? - I’m not a person. But mornings fuck me up dude.
Black-Eyed Susan: If you could be any animal for a day, what would it be? - A dodo bird. Because they’re all dead.
Bloodroots: When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? - So many things. A lead singer of a band (which I might get to do soon, yay), a policeman, an fbi agent, a photographer, etc. 
Bluemink: What are your thoughts on children? - I love them, I’d probably adopt older children because they need it the most, but I love children so much.
Blazing Stars: What are you afraid of? Is there a reason why? - I answered this earlier, “I am afraid of spiders. Because they have so many legs and so many eyes and THEY DON’T FUCKING NEED ALL OF THEM LIKE WTF?!?!?!?!?!”
Borage: Give a random fact about your childhood. - About 75% of the food my brother and I ate was Ramen, Pop Tarts, and instant rice.
Bugleherb: How would you spend your last day on Earth? - With the people I love the most.
Buttercup: Relationship status? - Sadly single :(
Camelia: If you could visit anywhere, where would you want to go? - Ireland. Without a doubt. It’s so beautiful.
Candytufts: When do you feel most loved? - I answered this one too. “When I’m cuddling with someone I care about while watching one of my favorite shows or movies. Or just when I’m cuddling someone I care about. And yes, that includes my puppy. (Funny joke, I’m watching Merlin while watching Merlin) (Merlin is my puppy).”

Canterbury Bells: Do you have any piercings? - Two in each ear.

Catnip: Have you ever slept with a nightlight? - Yes.
Chives: Who was the last person you hugged? - Sid. He’s the best, honestly.
Chrysanthemum: Who was the last person you kissed? - TJ. He’s basically my brother. The person before that was Shiro, and both of those were New Years Day at like midnight.
Cock’s Comb: Favorite font? - Calligraphy. It’s so fun to write in. But in computers, Times New Roman for some reason.
Columbine: Are you tired? - *in Snape’s voice* Alllllllways
Common Boneset: What are you looking forward to? - A good night’s sleep for once.
Coneflower: Dream job? - Lead singer of a rock band, which I’ll probably get to do soon!
Crane’s-Bill: Introvert or extrovert? - Extrovert, definitely.

Crown Imperial: What’s the furthest you’d go for someone you care about? - To the ends of the Earth.
Cyclamen: Did you have a favorite stuffed animal as a child? What was it? - Yes. It was a huge stuffed cheetah. Now it’s a giant stuffed bear from Evan.
Daffodil: What’s your zodiac sign? - Capricorn. I was supposed to be an Aquarius. And I personally think I’m an Aquarius more than a Capricorn.
Dahlia: Have you done anything worth remembering? - Not really. Other than date people.
Daisy: What do you feel is your greatest accomplishment? - I don’t fucking know. Winning the school spelling bee in 5th grade?
Daylily: What would you do if your parents didn’t like your partner(s)? - I wouldn’t care. If I love them and they love me, that’s all that matters to me.

Freesia: What are three good things that have happened to you in the last month? - I got a puppy, I got my binder, I gave my (now ex) girlfriend the best gift I’ve ever given in my life.
Garden Cosmos: How was your day today? - Considering all I’ve done is watched Merlin, type this, and cuddle with Merlin? Pretty good.

Gladiolus: What is something you hope to do in the next year or two? - Die :)

Heliotropium: What helps you calm down when you feel stressed? - Healthily? Dying my hair, listening to music, reading, writing, and getting hugs.

Hydrangea: How long have you known your best friend? How did you meet them? - ok gimme a sec.
@eyeforaneye-toothforatooth: They hated me when we met. We’ve known each other for... 3 or 4 years? We met in science in 6th grade I think.
Evan: We met in 6th grade. They noticed we had the same flannel on and commented on it. I hated them for like 2 years. Then we became friends, dated, now we’re best friends. I love them so much.
TJ: He was a friend of my best friend’s friend. Started hanging out in 7th grade, been like brothers ever since.
Shiro: Barely knew each other, then kinda “met” in 8th grade. Quickly became friends, dated, became best friends ever since.
Sid: Met him in SAGA this year. He bought me a binder, he’s the kindest person to me at my new school. I love him so much.
Irises: Who can you talk to about (almost) everything? - I can talk to @eyeforaneye-toothforatooth about practically everything. I love them so much.
Laceleaf: How many friends do you have? - Surprisingly a lot.
Lantanas: What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received? - Idk. “You look very handsome today.”?
Larkspur: What do you think of yourself? - What an utter piece of garbage.
Lavender: What’s your favorite thing about yourself? - My eyebrows? Idk they look cool, especially when I do them. One’s got a slit.
Leather Flower: What’s your least favorite thing about yourself? - All of it.
Lilac: What is something you liked to do as a child? - Sleep. When I could.
Lily: Who was your best friend when you were a kid? - It changed at least once every year. Paige, Sheyenne, Peyton, Chloe, the list goes on.
Lily of the Incas: What is something you still feel guilty of? - I followed everyone in kinda making fun of this kid who was a trans girl. I felt so guilty about it then, and I feel so guilty about it now. I hope she is living her best life now, and if she’s reading this I want her to know I am so so sorry. And I have felt it too, I have been made fun of for my gender identification. I am so sorry.
Lily of the Nile: What is something you feel guilty for that you shouldn’t feel guilty about? - Idk. There’s one thing I’m sworn not to tell about but the person who asked me this knows, so it doesn’t matter.
Lupine: What does your name mean? Why is that your name? - My deadname? Means “grace of god”, because my family is very Christian. My chosen name? Means “Defender of men; protector of mankind.” Which is honestly just so badass. I chose it because I liked it and it was genderneutral.
Marigold: Where did you grow up? Tell us about it. - Fort Collins, Colorado babyyyyyyyyy. It was nice and peaceful and small and I loved it.
Morning Glory: What was your bedroom like growing up? - Small. Always a disaster. Sadly shared with my brother.
Mugworts: What was it like for you as a teenager? Did you enjoy your teenage years? - So far? Sucky as fuck. I hate it. I love my friends, but other than that I hate it. I’m only like halfway through them anyway. It’s been spent trying to prove to my parents that I am just as good as my brother, who I happened to raise.
Norwegian Angelica: Tell us about your mom. - Awesome. Sweet and kind, short, with red hair, hazel eyes, and freckles. She’s caring, and she was raised in a Christian house but she’s trying so hard to be accepting, to fight against her religion for her child and I love that so much. I love her so much.
Onions: Tell about your dad. - Kinda annoying. Plays video games all day and makes my brother and I do everything around the house. He tries to be nice and stuff but it really doesn’t work that well. He basically says he “doesn’t care” about the whole sexuality thing and gender thing and then he says stuff like “you can’t really know til your hormones have settled” and “Your name is your name until you can legally change it.” It’s stupid.
Orchid: Tell about your grandparents. - Which ones? I have multiple. I have 4 grandmas and 4 grandpas. Tho I suppose they’re all pretty similar. Very Christian, yet pretty accepting. They love me to death. I have one super transphobic grandpa, but basically all of them helped me raise my brother when I was little and my dad was asleep from working nights and my mom was at work all day. I owe them a lot. And I love them so much.
Pansy: What was your most memorable birthday? What made it so memorable? - My 12th. My best friend Val was there and so was my friend Tei and that was it, and they basically got along too well and I was really left out of things at my own birthday party. It was annoying. It was the first time I ever felt true jealousy, and that’s why I remember it so well. I haven’t liked a birthday since because it reminds me of that. I used to like it because it was a day when my parents actually payed attention to me and were off, but now everyone makes too big of a deal of it and I just wish it didn’t exist.
Petunia: If you’re in a relationship, how did you meet your partner(s)? If you’re not in a relationship, how did you meet your crush/how do you hope to meet your future partner(s), if you want any? - SAGA club, he founded it a couple years ago. He’s super kind to me and he does so much for me, god I don’t deserve him. He bought me a binder. And he’s my best friend. I love him so much.
Pincushion: How do you deal with pain? - Healthily? Getting hugs and cuddles from my better friends. I can’t really do much of that lately though. *cries in a corner*
Pink: Where is home? - With the family and friends I’ve found.
Plantain Lilies: If you could go back in time, what is one thing you would stop/change? - Wow. Hard choice. I’d either kill Hitler as a baby, or prevent my own conception.
Prarie Gentian: Who is someone you look up to? Describe them. - Sid if you’re reading this I am so sorry, and I’m so sorry for mentioning you so much. But I look up to him, because he is one of the best people I know. I love him so much. He’s sweet and just sadncaspdnnhciodsifcnsjxsojcm.
Primrose: Describe your ideal life. - Idc what’s going on in it, as long as it’s with my found family and friends. I’d like my depression, anxiety, and ADHD to disappear though, ideally.
Rhondendron: What is something you used to believe in as a child? - Jesus. Or life. Either one works.
Ricinus: Who’s the most important in your life? - That’s hard. @eyeforaneye-toothforatooth, Sid, Evan, TJ, Shiro, Freddie Mercury, Elton John, or David Bowie (may Mercury and Bowie rest in peace)
Rose: What’s your favorite sound? - Music. Definitely music.
Rosemallows: What’s your favorite memory? - When I was at our first organized rehearsal for OneActs. I just love hanging out with so many fellow gays (and yes, I am including the straight twink that is Simon)
Sage: What’s your least favorite memory? - Um, I don’t want to go into detail on that. I was 5. It was bad.
Snapdragon: At this moment, what do you want? - A boyfriend lol
St. John’s Wort: Is it easy or difficult for you to express how you feel about things? - Depends. In a relationship? Pretty easy. Any other time? Near impossible until I break.
Sunflower: What is something you don’t want to imagine your life without? - There’s 3. Pie, music, and my brother TJ.
Sweet Pea: How much sleep did you get last night? - I doped myself up on melatonin so about 7½. Usually its between 1 and 4, if I’m lucky enough to fall asleep.
Tickseed: What’s your main reason to get up every morning? - The people I care most about. My best friends. Also the reason I don’t stab myself through the heart. They keep me going. I love them all so much. They mean too much to me to hurt them, if I could in any way.
Touch-Me-Not: How do you feel about your current job? - Living or school? Either one I hate it. I don’t have an actual job.
Transvaal Daisy: What’s your favorite item of clothing? - My flannels. Or my band tees. Or my leather jacket from TJ.
Tropical White Morning Glory: Describe your aesthetic. - I don’t fully know what this is asking. I guess the smell of worn flannel, old worn leather, grease from a car, hair dye, smudged eyeliner, and conjoined lips? Idk.
Tulip: What would be the best present to get you? - Idk. Best present I’ve ever recieved was a binder. But I’d say worn flannel from a thrift store.
Vervain: What’s stressing you out most right now? - Grandparents spamming my phone with “Happy Birthday [deadname]!!!” texts
Wisteria: How many books have you read in the last few months? What were they called? - Idk dude.
Wolf’s Bane: Where do you want to be in life this time next year? - Dead or with a partner.
Yarrow: Do you know what vore is? - Oddly enough, no. But I don’t think I want to.
Zinnia: Give a random fact about yourself. - I have green eyes.
Kass I hate you.

8, 12, 15, 16 (gimme The Tea lol).
8. Which book would you like to see adapted into a film?
Oh boy. I read the graphic novel Saga a while back and started daydreaming what a trailer for a movie based on it would look like (I like to think it would be set to Otis Redding’s Try a Little Tenderness). Also I think I saw some tumblr posts with edits of Manny Jacinto as Marko or something, which hell yeah. Idk if I’d really wanna see how a big budget movie of it would turn out tho…
12. A movie that holds a special place in your heart?
Too many.
I’ll say You’ve Got Mail. It’s one of the movies me and my family would watch over and over when I was a kid, even though it wasn’t a kids movie. We’d quote it a lot (”You need quiet while the hot dog is singing??”…the entire Starbucks monologue). Actually, I could probably recite this whole movie. Ditto Sleepless in Seattle. But my answer is You’ve Got Mail bc I think it really influenced me in terms of aesthetic?? I wanted to be typing on laptops, and seeing a butterfly in a subway, and working in an independent bookstore. I discovered Eloise bc of this movie, and I definitely tried to read Pride and Prejudice too young bc of this movie.
Also, thx @ Richard Kind for giving Witness for the Prosecution a shout out in John Mulaney’s new special. A quirky barrister, his irreverent nurse, femme fatale Marlene Dietrich, and a big twist. I’m just plugging it so I can strong arm you into watching it with me later, Sarah, lol.
15. A film everyone loves that you hate?
Okay so I don’t hate this movie but I found out the same director of Cats directed Les Mis?? So my piping hot take 9 days later is that….I guess I liked Cats better?? It’s definitely more of a, I Had High Expectations for Les Mis That It Could Not Meet, And Absolutely No Expectations for Cats, So It Exceeded Them Easily situation.
It was just. So many close ups. I guess I was hoping for some Oliver! (1968)-style grand street scenes to go with them sweeping melodies, but we got, like, one zoom-out on a heavenly barricade at the very end?…Alright.
Not that Cats didn’t have cinematography issues (besides the obvious lol). Just let us see the dancers dance!! It’s not that hard, modern musical directors!!
16. A film you love but everyone else hates?
Ugh, why are only big budget things coming to mind?? People hated Iron Man 3, but I liked it…
Oh boy, *rips off band aid* tbh there were things I liked about The Last Jedi. There were things I didn’t like, too…but I think that’s all I’ll say, lol.

Sorry I’m replying a bit late!! For context for other people I said that it’s okay if you just send a number with no character and I’ll answer it for the main 4 (And any others I may have something to say about) so they may be a bit shorter since its for four characters! Anyway it’s a bit long so I’ll do it under the cut so I don’t clog people’s dashes
33. What is their biggest fear? How would they react to having to face it?
Amary: The inability to live up to certain expectations, as in, failing as a queen. And the truth of the matter is she has to face failure and she has to face becoming a queen someday, but I don’t know if she could handle both at once. She needs practice with failure, and she needs to grow into her own person before she’s ready to become a queen. That’s a big part of her arc really.
Rue: I think she’s just afraid of hurting people she cares about, and with her background it makes sense, if she were to hurt someone she cared about in a major way she’d probably react by running away from it and isolating, she wouldn’t think of apologizing because she’d think she’s beyond redemption.
Aloe: This one is the easiest because it’s actually something brought to the forefront with him. He’s afraid of death, but not his own. The idea that people close to him could die at any moment is a side-effect of having a mother that goes on life threatening missions often, and it manifested in OCD issues. That being said though… He’s probably the strongest out of the main four in this regard, even if he was left broken he could piece himself back together.
Sorrel: Unlike the other three his fear is less abstract, it’s concrete and physical. He’s just afraid of his dad, he’s afraid of confronting him specifically. And unlike the other three it’s not something he has the option of not thinking about, he has to! He has to confront it daily! And obviously something like that leads to a lot of issues down the road, it’s a lot to unpack.
52. What is their body type? Are they muscular, chubby, skinny, etc?
Amary: Freshmen year Amary is like five foot nothing and super dainty, the intent is mostly to make her look like she’s taking up as little space as possible. Senior year Amary is taller, she’s less of a twig but she’s still pretty lanky.
Rue: Freshmen year Rue is short, but taller than Amary, she’s chubby and combined with her height it makes her kind of.. Stout? I’m not sure if that’s the right word or if I’m just thinking of the teapot rhyme. Unlike the rest though she doesn’t get to much taller, a couple inches maybe but by Senior year the high difference is reversed.
Aloe: Freshmen year Aloe is taller than Rue and on the chubby side but unlike Rue he’s got a bit of a more square build. Senior year Aloe is the tallest of the main four (or maybe tied with Amary), and as the only one out of the them to use an actual weapon instead of magic for combat he gains a bit of muscle too. That plus some sort of implied magic top surgery by junior year.
Sorrel: Freshmen year Sorrel is the tallest out of the main four but still pretty scrawny and scrappy looking. Senior year Sorrel only gets a couple inches taller, like Rue, and like Aloe he does look visibly stronger, taking after his sister a bit. Not as much though since his main focus is speed.
75. If given a blank piece of paper, a pencil, and nothing to do, what would happen?
Amary: A bunch of little doodles probably, none of them really all that great but she’s just trying to kill time not end up in the fantasy MoMA
Rue: Paper airplane, that was she can throw it around as much as she wants until it gets old after the 5th time
Aloe: I mean… Now is a good a time as any to do homework I guess. He’s gotta do it anyway.
Sorrel: Cover it in The S
89. What is their D&D alignment?
I’m not a pro at D&D alignments here so I’m just giving my best approximation lol
Amary: Lawful good at first until she evolves into a chaotic good by the end
Rue: Chaotic neutral at first and chaotic good by the end, really they just find a middle ground
Aloe: Lawful good but unlike Amary he stands by it (But he does go through a bit of a lawful neutral phase at some point)
Sorrel: Kind of a neutral good, I think he’s a bit of a mediator for the group in that aspect
92. Describe them as a John Mulaney gif.
I’m too lazy to get gifs so I’ll just say the quote… Also I’m skipping 91 because I cannot find good tweets… Maybe some other time u_u sorry but to make up for that ill just do the whole class for this one and Aster+Reed
Amary: I listen to everything my girlfriend says. I don’t mean she bosses me around, I just listen to everything she says because before I had a girlfriend, I never had someone who’s always standing next to me who can just point out obvious things that are happening.
Rue: I bet you part of the reason goths are so miserable is they wake up every morning and think, “Oh god, I gotta put all that shit back on. Why did I join?”
Aloe: My mommy, so shut the fuck up!
Sorrel: If you’re an adult male that sees no flaws in your father you’re an insane person.
Carnation: Just you raising your hand and being like, “I think Emily Dickinson’s a lesbian.” And they’re like, “Partial credit.”
Pine: You spend most of your day telling a robot that you’re not a robot. Think about that for two minutes and tell me you don’t want to walk into the ocean.
Geran: I’ll just keep all my emotions right here (Points to heart) and then one day, I’ll die.
Fennel: I thought it was a little too dramatic. I didn’t need the whole little brother dying thing.
Musk: It’s wrong to make fun of people, you know, but it’s so fun sometimes. 
Gallica: Hmm, we’re not so different, you and I. You have your law practice, and me, I have all these fucking markers.
Protea: I don’t know how to lightly make fun of people, I can’t be like “Oh, look at your shirt!” I have to be like “Your wife left you.”
Daisy: [Pepper]  is my best friend in the world. I give her a million kisses a day. She does not like me, and barks at me and bites me all day long.
Maggie: Everyone get outta my way, I just wanna sit here and feed my birds.
Tam: Well… you know how I’m filled with rage? (nods knowingly)
Holly: I need everybody, all day long, to like me so much.
Hyacinth: No one look at me or I’ll kill myself!
Aster: “Yeah, I don’t wanna work!” And I was like, “You know the kids don’t wanna work either” and she was like (closes eyes and slurs) “Good!” (pantomimes taking a shot)
Reed: And then, he ordered one black coffee for himself. And kept driving.

Cute :) are you guys the “polar opposites” type of besties or the “basically the same person” type?
hi bb! sorry i had work~
we’re the “liberal arts gay” and the “science gay” but our interests overlap a lot. i’m more extroverted than she is but we value our alone time, together, lol. i guess you could say we’re more similar than not, but we both bring fun things to the table. our discussions can range from personal to intellectual to things downright “no one else will ever know this” lol. it’s a lot of john mulaney quotes and kpop references. loooots of milk tea and rose coffee.
i love her!!!! my WIFE!!!

Year End Reflections (No, I'm not dead)
This year... hasn't been an easy one.
At the beginning of this year, I found out that my body wasn't working right. It was a relief, because I had felt for a while that things weren't right, but it was also scary, and upsetting, and overwhelming. Fast forward to the end of the year, and while some things have gotten better, we still don't have my Graves Disease under control. According to my doctor, if upping my medication for the third time doesn't help, we may have to look into killing my thyroid altogether with radioactive iodine, making me hypo for the rest of my life. I've known this was a possibility from the moment I was diagnosed, but I had been hoping that if it came to that, it would be my choice, not something I'd be forced to do.
I haven't tried to stay healthy in all this, even thoough with my health on the line, it would totally make sense to. I've been stressed, I've reverted to old habits, and consequently I've gained... much more weight than I would have preferred. I'm not where I started, but I've gained back at least half of what I've lost. And part of me hates myself for it, but another part of me is just trying to remind myself that I need to love and forgive myself, because that's the first step to being genuinely happy with myself again.
So, this year has been... a bit of a dumpster fire. Yes, there have been good things - I got to go to JAPAN, for god's sake, and that was fucking amazing - but it feels like everything outside of that has been a bit of a wash. But I'm ready to make a change. I'm ready to start over, so to speak. I'm ready to love myself again. And if I'm honest, I'm not sure if that means I'm ready to be back on here 110%, because I know it's gonna be hard, and I know I'm gonna slip up, and I have a really hard time feeling guilty when I do, like I'm letting people down. But I will try to check in, I will try to be more present.
I will learn to love myself again. That is my goal for 2018.
I'd also like to connect with people on here again, because while I myself haven't been super active, I log in multiple times every day and read so many stories y'all share, and I'm rooting for you, even when I don't say anything at all. So for that reason, I'd like to give a few shoutouts to the people I've been following, who have inspired me, who I've been silently cheering for. I hope y'all see this; if you don't, it's not a big deal, but I do hope you know how much you mean to me (and I'm sure to a lot of other people in this community).
@fatmaninalittlesuit - Dude, I don't even know what to say. I've followed you for years and you have always been such an inspiration, but this year you have absolutely killed it. You've worked so hard, and it's paid off tremendous dividends. I saw your ten selfies of 2017 post today and literally said out loud, "Holy shit, John, you don't even look like the same person - you look awesome!!" You look happy, you look strong, and you always have kind words of encouragement to share with us. Thank you for all you do in this community, and may your 2018 be rad as fuck.
@curvymommy70 - You have been so sweet to me. It seems like every time I've made a post complaining for crying about my circumstances, you've always been there to pat me on the back and reassure me things would be okay. You have been a rock for me in this community throughout the year, and I don't feel like I've done enough to convey how much I appreciate you. Thank you so much for everything, and I cannot wait to see what 2018 brings you (I hope it's only good things). :)
@plussizeadventure - I haven't really said two words to you, but I followed you earlier this year and I'm so glad I did. I know 2017 has been shitty for you too, but I can't tell you how much I love seeing your smiling face on my dash. You are funny, and smart, and determined as hell, and I find myself cheering you on in the face of your challenges, whether it's shitty advisors or cancer. The fact that you can still smile at the end of the day puts things in perspective for me, and if you can find things to smile about, then I sure as hell can too. Thank you for being brave and sharing your story with us - I know I don't always talk often, but I am always rooting for you!!
@mystoryfortheaudienceoftheworld - Another person who I only just started following this year, and now I look back and ask why??? You are such a delight, I love seeing your smile, your passion for life, even when things are rough, and your dancing gifs and videos make me wanna get up and shake it too! You are Hayden are PRECIOUS together, and I am so happy for the next phase of life you two get to embark on. I love seeing you on my dash. Also - and I hope this isn't too weird - you're only about four-ish hours away from me and I wanna be like, let's get brunch sometime! I feel like that would be an awesome meal. :)
@sweetiefiend - I know we haven't chatted in a hot minute, and I'm not in the GG fandom like I used to be, but I just love seeing you on my dash. You are gorgeous and kind and encouraging, and it seems like you've always reached out to me when I needed it the most. Thank you for that, and I hope 2018 is fucking awesome for you.
@sahraylia - My wifey until I die~~ You are always there for me, you are encouraging, kind, loving, patient, and you're not afraid to call me out when I need it - all of which I love you for so, so much. I hope I can be as supportive to you as you've always been for me. You always encourage me to be myself, especially when I need the reminder, and I can never express to you how much that means to me. I love you so, so much, and I hope 2018 is better than your 2017 was. <3
@dysfunctionalkitsune - I'm gonna see you tonight, it's probably inane to but this here, but girl. I am so grateful for you in my life. I never would have guessed all those years ago when we met in middle school that we'd be as close as we are now, but I am so glad we are. You are the fire that keeps me going, keeps me pursuing my dreams, even when I fall off the wagon multiple times per week. You helped us get to Japan this year, you always take me on fun adventures, your thirst for excitement and life is contagious and I'm so glad I know you for it. Having you as a friend means life is never boring, and I love that. I love you so much, and I can't wait to see where our next adventure takes us!
@starfieldeyes - I don't even know what to say to you, because words seem meaningless. You have been there for me in my worst times, when I sobbed on the phone, when I felt like everything was lost. You've been there to lift me up, wipe my tears, and sometimes slap me in the face and tell me to get over myself - all from hundreds of miles away. You always seem to know what I need when I need it, and I literally cannot express how much I love you & how lucky I am to have you in my life. The college we met at was not a good match for either of us, but I will always be grateful that I met you (and Brittany) there, and I wouldn't change a thing about going there if it means I get to have you both in my life. Thank you. I love you.
@mynameisbirdie - I feel like putting a shoutout here is silly, because you're my sister and all, but I don't know if I tell you enough how much you mean to me. You have become one of my very best friends, and I'm so happy that we are as close as we are. I'm so grateful that I can literally tell you anything and I know you won't judge me. I love that we share our interests with each other and drag each other down into our respective fandoms, I love that we laugh over rip vine compilations and quote John Mulaney to each other, I love everything about us and our relationship. Thank you for always being there for me. I love you so much.
I know there are people that I'm missing, but this has gone on too long already, lol. Here's hoping for a better 2018 than 2017 - for myself, for all my followers, and to whoever might be reading this right now. Let's make 2018 our bitch.
