i think CS broke me bc in some kind of asshole way i think i began to expect people to comment on it so seeing comments still made me go !!! but it was nowhere near how it used to feel. so posting a fic with a small kudos amount, in a living fandom but definitely nowhere near DSMP’s numbers back then & still now, has reminded me that getting an AO3 comment-- especially from a stranger-- is the best thing in the fucking world.

#nightmare.personal #important note that like people have also historically said nice things about my fics in tags and asks here not just comments #so like. i'll call him out but alek left me a very niceys tag when rbing my fic link #and like that was equal amounts of !!! people read it! people liked it! to me #like i try not to be picky any attention makes me super excited #sully's long comment on my fic was also like. i couldn't respond for a few days bc i was SO fucking excited #but now i just got a notif from someone i don't think i recognize? and it's like #holy shit this is the best day ever. feels like i got accepted into college again except its just me grinning stupidly #bc friends make me feel warm but strangers r like. you don't even know me. and you're being niceys? what the fuck? #but also. friend in the comments section makes me feel less alone on my own fic
