Thank you so much! ♥ ♥ ♥ I hadn't really thought about this as being in direct continuity with the other one, but it does absolutely work as that. If their get-together wasn't that exact thing, it was probably something equally unlikely and ridiculous and them.
(Someday I need to sit down and work out a few coherent post-series continuities for fic-writing purposes. I mean, obviously the stories aren't going to fall into a single consistent continuity with each other, due to different development of events and different ships, but they probably DO line up into a few different post-canon trajectories.)
.... Oh hey, this is off topic, but there's something else I've been wanting to say to you for awhile: I'm really sorry for being unkind to you last year, and I appreciate very much that you felt comfortable enough with me to speak honestly about my new fandom. FWIW, I've taken your criticism on board and even though, yes, I'm still in that fandom because it delivers certain specific things I want, I do try to be as honest as possible about what it is and seek out ways to make up for it elsewhere, for example, seeking out POC creators, Asian media, etc, and supporting their work.
Anyway, I've felt for awhile now that I needed to apologize to you for my own lack of receptivity when you first talked to me about it. Thanks for saying something. You're brave to speak up. <3
I've been trying to tag things consistently, both here and on Tumblr, to make it easy for you to avoid content you need to avoid. If I need to do more with tagging/cutting, such as using a consistent tag here on DW (I have a variety of tags for different fanwork types due to legacy tagging), I can work on doing that; let me know if so.
You don't need to respond to this obvs. (unless you want to), but I've been wanting to apologize to you for awhile for, basically, blowing off your criticisms and not being as sympathetic to your pain as you deserved. So basically, thanks for saying something and I'm glad that you did. I'm always fine with being unfriended or blocked for any reason, whatever people need to do to curate their own fandom experience -- but your comments are lovely and sweet, and you are a fun and interesting person to talk to, so I'm glad you do still comment here.
