Me when I started writing fanfic: wow look at this pretty au!! Let’s throw in some angst for fun! Lol I’ve never written a book before so please excuse my cliches and poor grammar
Me writing fan fic now: yeah I wanna dive into the psychological effects that come with manic episodes of bipolar in teen boys through childhood negeltic.

Also this entire thing takes place in a fake dating, Olivia Rodrigo au.
walking with her friends in front of me and suddenly she goes “I wish I had a girlfriend” and I was like “ME GAY” but only in my head because I’m a coward
Note to my future self: next time don’t confess to him over a letter that has to cross almost all the world. I know it sounds romantic but the waiting is going to kill you.
