Your smut is the hottest I’ve ever read

sdkfghskjdfgsjdfg THANK YOU SO MUCH 😭😭😭

It means the world to me that you read and enjoyed it; smut has been such a journey for me, from being shy to being less shy. I hope that by this October, I'll be super bold and lean into all the kinks I have planned!!

And I hope you enjoy the ride too! Just in case you haven't seen, I've started moving my smut over to @superfaeriebutts so that's where I'll post my kinktober things 😊😊😊

OMGGGGG

youre absolutely mad for writing the cellophane house. the amount of spliffs it took to get through that is concerning even to me. you owe me about 30 pound worth of weed

some parts had me giggling and kicking my feet and then come the parts where i was crying at my laptop like a pathetic tosser

but all jokes aside ive never actually had a piece of writing make me proper cry and that whole fic has changed me as a person. i love your writing youre well cool i hope you write more in the future xx

Anon this is honestly the BEST thing anyone’s said to me all week 😂 And yeah, send over that weed bill! I think I owe you for sitting out all 300,000 words of the CH saga- I take it you read Lost Boys too?!

I loved writing CH, for all it was emotionally A LOT, so it means the world that you loved it too 😭

I’m always writing, though more slowly than I was! AO3 can’t get rid of me that easily 😂

Based on this comment, you should be writing as well!

Yea charles gained 6 positions, but only one of that was due to an actual overtake. The rest depended on team strategy with the tyres (every car should change their tyres atleast once during the race. Going into the pitlane to change tyres costs time and thus positions, ferrari very surprisingly made a single pit stop strategy work so yea)

Yeah I mean it worked right?

Thanks for explaining that because again I really don't know much about racing so I still gotta learn all the stuff I oughta know lol

But yes even watching knowing nothing I did see that Ferrari didn't take many pit stops. Is that usually not a very good strategy? I wouldn't know.

I just wanted to say, even though we don’t know each other, I’m really really happy for you getting such an amazing internship! I have also struggled with my adhd and depression my whole life, but I got through school and my degree with hard work, and this week I got a PhD offer from the most prestigious institution in my country. I relate so much to you saying you never thought you’d get here! But look at us now :) things get better!

Thank you so much, anon! That means a lot to me. I am truly happy for you too and proud of us both for making it this far. Things really do get better. Never forget. <3

Helloo, another BtB fan coming out of the woodwork lol

I completely second anon’s post about your humor, I find myself giggling like an idiot at ungodly hours re-reading your work more nights than I feel confident disclosing (as well as seconding the ask about burnout and your mental health, I would hope the majority of Okamirayne stans understand the absolute necessity of mental health breaks in the arts, and if not then there is a strong minority of your fans that will fight anyone who prioritizes the product over the author 👊💥)

Anyway….

I’m not much of a writer, and I think most ppl have articulated my feelings in asks much better than I could ever hope to, so this is just me writing a long winded “I AGREEEEE” to already existing asks. But god, when I found the BtBverse my eyes were opened to how amazing fics and headcanons can add on to already existing universes and characters. Maybe this is elementary level reading comprehension, but I’ve never been able to get immersed into worlds like I have in your fics. Normally when I read, I feel outside of the world, reading dialogue and an occasional sprinkle of world context that helps me understand what’s going on, and so many fics I read seem to relegate the characters to caricatures of their main personality traits (shikamaru is lazy, neji is a hardass, naruto is goofy, ino is obsessed with self-image) but in your writing I feel like you give so much respect to each and every character, adding the context of WHY they are the way they are in the canon universe. You’ve expanded so much of their characters that I pretty much think of your universe as canon (Kishimoto..and his disrespect of his female characters..jaded me from the canonverse a long time ago) More than reading words on a page (or a screen, I saw one post a while ago where you had a printed out copy of BtB and I’ve been yearning for one ever since), I feel like I’m actually inside your universe when I’m reading. I can actually see the entire scene you’ve laid out. Again, this is probably beginner reading comp, but when I read your work I’m actually imaging each character and their perspective, looking through their eyes (and yours) from every possible angle — what are they seeing, how does it coincide from what I’ve read about the other character’s pov, etc etc etc.

This is a giant ramble to basically say, not only am I grateful to have such a brilliant and beautiful work in the Shikaneji fandom, I am also grateful to have been exposed to your writing. I’ve always been a stem girly, but reading your work has opened my eyes to the beauty of what writing is capable of. BtB has helped my brain reintroduce its love for reading, something I thought I lost long ago. Of course, I am constantly yearning for more and more HHU installments, but, to reiterate already existing asks and comments, I am so incredibly grateful for the already existing work that you have produced. I hope that whatever your future holds, whether it be more HHU chapters, your own independent worlds, or just doing whatever the hell you want, you keep on writing. You probably know this already, but you have such incredible writing skills, and I’m sure whatever you decide to do in your future will be brilliant.

- love letter from a longtime fan

Hello there, Long Time Fan!💖

So ridiculously excited and happy to hear from you! Thank you so much for making the time to hit me up here on Tumblr with this phenomenally kind, sweet, thoughtful and all out awesome message. I'm gobsmacked but will endeavour to respond. 🫶🏼💜

Firstly, so chuffed you enjoy the BtB humour, luv. *high fives* Solidarity in the giggles to dilute the angst! I also thank you for your support regarding my burnout and what you mentioned about prioritising the author over the product. That means a lot and I appreciate it, especially when there is so much content flooding out to be consumed and the pressure to create feels immense at times. 🫠💀

I’m not much of a writer, and I think most ppl have articulated my feelings in asks much better than I could ever hope to, so this is just me writing a long winded “I AGREEEEE” to already existing asks.

Just the fact that you took the time to write to me, means everything. I love, appreciate, respect, and treasure every single comment or response I get - as they are as individual to me as the person writing the feedback or sharing their thoughts at the other end of the screen. Each message or comment reads different and hits different to me and are uniquely precious. 🥰

But god, when I found the BtBverse my eyes were opened to how amazing fics and headcanons can add on to already existing universes and characters. [...] I’ve never been able to get immersed into worlds like I have in your fics. Normally when I read, I feel outside of the world, [...] so many fics I read seem to relegate the characters to caricatures of their main personality traits [...] but in your writing I feel like you give so much respect to each and every character, adding the context of WHY they are the way they are in the canon universe.

Ah, you hit me right in the feels, luv 💖. I know I repeat this a lot but the characters are the most important part of the storytelling craft for me. If they have weird quirks or habits I wanna know what's behind it all and I am so delighted and touched to know that the deep-dive into these characters has engaged you and gotten you invested in the BtB-verse. I am glowing right now. The characters are the heart and soul of it all. Expanding on them, acknowledging them as the heroes of their own stories is so important - extrapolating from that, that's why each individual review means so much to me, because a person is a character on the other side of the screen with their own reasons for connecting with my work, and I acknowledge how varied that is for each person. 🥰

[...] I feel like I’m actually inside your universe when I’m reading. I can actually see the entire scene you’ve laid out.

In no way is what you're describing beginner reading comprehension. We never know what's going to connect with us. I am so touched by what you've shared here...especially as it relates to two of the most important elements of the storytelling craft for me. 1) To do justice to the characters 2) to deliver an experience for the reader, and if not that, then entertrainment and escape - but "an experience" is always what I aim for...and you've given me such an incredible validation with what you described in your message, so THANK YOU, so, so much...THIS is why I write and invest so much into the writing. So that someone can feel that sense of immersion into the world, into the characters. I'm beyond thrilled that you feel this way. 💖💜🫠🥰

I'm so thankful to have you as a reader and am just buzzing to have received this beautiful message from you.💖🥹💖

💖....just, wow. Seriously. Thank you.

I hope that whatever your future holds, whether it be more HHU chapters, your own independent worlds, or just doing whatever the hell you want, you keep on writing.

Messages like yours remind me why I want to keep doing it. Thank you so damn much for the love, support, kindness, insight and amazing solidarity your words have expressed and gifted me with. 🥰🙏🏼 Receiving messages like yours will always mean more to me than I can ever do justice to in words (which is always a bittersweet irony).

Thank you. Sincerely. Wholly. Utterly. Thank You. 💖💖💖

You are one of my favorite writers on this site. You are incredibly talented and I thank you for everything you have blessed us with. 💚

I cannot express how much this means to me. I never thought I'd become anyone's favourite writer, just a brief passing amusement which is totally fine!!

It truly means the world to me. If I reach one person with my writing, my dreams have come true so thank you 🥹

I hope I continue to bring you joy!!!
