(we're going to ignore how the 'just' is cut off to 'jus')
but yeah that was basically me for the past two months 😃😃
ANYWAYS WELCOME BACK YALL I HOPE YOUR MENTAL STATE IS BETTER THAN MINE
(and if it is say goodbye to it bc this fic is going to ruin you if i cried writing it yall are going down w me)
BC I JUST CASUALLY FINISHED WRITING A FANFICTION LONGER THAN THE GREAT MF GATSBY
which is fun and totally not mentally draining and i'm totally not burnt out at all why would you even suggest such a thing 🤨
AND I DID NOT SPEND TWO MONTHS AND NINE DAYS WRITING THIS SHIT AND ANOTHER FOUR DAYS EDITING JUST TO NOT ADVERTISE IT AT ALL SO YES THIS CHAPTER IS SHAMELESS SELF ADVO
(totally has nothing at all to w the fact that this fic drained me of all capacity to write anything else whatsoever nope not at all why would you even say that)
yea !! so my fic (aralas, ofc) is called at the impasse of the age, we lie in oblivion
(which may seem like a weird title for wattpad, but for ao3 its totally normal)
it is 75,009 words broken into 38 chapters
it is very angsty so i hope you like pain <3
but not like pain in the "oH mY gOd hOw cOuLd hE eVeR lOvE mE iM lIkE a gUy aNd hEs tOtAlLy sTrAiGhT oH mY GoD i LoVe hIm sO mUcH bUt hE cOuLd nEvEr lOvE mE bAcK wHaTevEr sHaLl i dO"
NO BABE I MEAN ANGSTY LIKE:
"Yes, Aragorn is the sun, and he burns brighter now in the world of men than he ever did in the fog of Mirkwood. He is the sun and Legolas stretches his hands towards the flames, seeking the release of burning."
OR:
"Aragorn had allowed himself some loosening of the noose when they were in Mirkwood. Now, again in the world of men, he takes up the mantle of his duty like an old noble takes bitter medicine—with a masochistic sort of pleasure."
OR:
"The Elfstone accepted yet taken off every night so the cold of it against Legolas' bare skin will not remind him that he is second. Second to her, second to duty, second to kingship. Chosen only when all else disappears in the shadow of evening."
i could keep going but this shit aint free wyd here go read it its amazing 🤨📸
......and does all of this make me slightly sorta kinda a hypocrite bc i'm always like 💥👹GIVE ME ARALAS FICS WHERE THEY'RE ALL HAPPY👹💥
