Hey there, winxies! Just a quick but important note before you dive in.

This novel is my original work—the storyline, writing, and overall structure are mine. That means I do not give permission for 𝑨𝑵𝒀𝑶𝑵𝑬 to copy, repost, or claim any part of it as their own. If you try, just know you'll be:

➢ 𝗠𝘂𝘁𝗲
➢ 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱
➢ 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱

Simple as that. Let's keep it respectful.

That being said, unless otherwise noted, I don't own any of the well-known characters mentioned in the novel. But the plot, worldbuilding, and everything else? All me.

🪶✨ And speaking of that...
I'm honored when people say my fics inspire them—but let's get one thing straight: inspiration is not duplication.

Taking inspiration means building something new because something in this story moved you. So if this book ends up making your brain itch in the best way and you wanna go write your own thing? Love that. Genuinely. Just don't copy-paste my scenes, dialogue, or pacing, slap a new name on it, and call it yours. I've seen it happen to other writers, and I'm saying this now so I don't have to say it later: If your story starts to feel more like mine than yours, that's a problem.

This story was built from scratch—by me. Through 2AM meltdowns, Google Docs chaos, and the kind of hyperfixation only fellow ND folks understand. So if I see it show up under a different title with my structure and soul still intact? Best believe I will say something. Also, if you see anyone mimicking this work too closely, please feel free to let me know.

This isn't me being stingy—this is me protecting what I bled into.

So, keep it cute. Keep it original. Or keep it moving. Because at the end of it all, you must respect the work, respect the labor, and respect the line between admiration and theft.

Now, onto something just as important: how we engage in the comments.


1. Do not romanticize trauma. This story may explore heavy themes, but that doesn't mean they should be taken lightly. If you can't engage with these topics respectfully, this might not be the space for you.

2. Do 𝑵𝑶𝑻 trauma-dump in the comments. I understand that stories can be personal and triggering, but it's unfair to expect other readers (or me) to process heavy, deeply personal experiences in a casual reading space. If you share details about serious trauma, your comment will be deleted, and you may be muted. Remember, this is a public site and others engage on it too; be mindful of others' mental state as well as your own.

3. Respect cultural boundaries. For the love of Gods above, do 𝑵𝑶𝑻 refer to me as Author-nim, Author-chan, etc. unless you're actually from the culture or seriously learning the language. I'm not Korean or Japanese, and using those titles outside their intended context can come off as fetishizing. Just call me Xani, and we're good, lovelies.
