#iah the fact that you crossed out hs romance & genderbend speaks volumes to me personally #hs romance is just very..puppy-like. it doesn't hold any heavy meaning for me #i feel like genderbend is blatantly transphobic in a way?? like just say that they're trans. that's it #there's no need to go 'omg they switched genders' no stop that rn #say that they're trans. the gender spectrum is so wide & so (historically) complex i feel like it's a disservice #to trans folks or people who dont fit the binary #anyways i also want to explain some choices that i was on the edge about #fake dating is there bc the first time i met one of my closest friends he went 'please pretend to be my s/o' 'okay lmao'#and then i did and we 'fake' dated but never said anything bc he wanted girls to stop flirting with him lmao #more specifically we called the other husband & wife/honey & dear and ppl just assumed we were dating pfpfp #we no longer do that but we make jabs to it every now and then as a joke #i'd usually go for the one bed thing but for me & the culture i was raised in #sharing a bed isn't as ground-breaking??#i like it when the two of them go 'ah theres only one bed. let's share it' instead of the unnecessary tension #the long-distance correspondance is only bc of how my mc sends human realm gifts to barbatos lmfao #i enjoy reading one-shots but i personally make multi-chapter fics for myself that i rarely publicly share #also love the green here it reminds me of how the green highlighter is my favorite to use for my books sorta? yeah.#edit: i must've been delirious when i chose neighbors over roommates what. changing that rn
