[aw shit, here we go again]

Hello. I had a really long struggle with figuring out whether or not i'd republish this story. I feel like I owe a bit of an explanation for why I took it down in the first place. There isn't exactly a big, dramatic reason—but there are a few small ones that ultimately feel big to me.

I wrote this nearly three or four years ago when I was 16 and I really liked it at the time, but after it ended and I started writing newer stories, I realized I didn't like this one at all. It being up made me uncomfortable. There's plot holes and misspellings and jokes that don't sit comfortably with me anymore. My writing style, I feel, has also changed drastically.

But I loved this concept so much that I couldn't let go of it. For people just finding this, or for older readers who don't know, I have a rewritten version up that I cherish. It's so dear to me and I have such a fun time writing it.

I'm posting this original version again for a few reasons. Mostly the sentiment. But I know there's several people who liked this (why? i do not know. this book is the equivalent to butt chugging beer until you black out and wake up feeling disgusted with your actions and yourself as a person).

I'd be so appreciative if you could check out the rewritten version at some point so you can see what I mean. I'm a whole ass adult now—and I'm not saying teenagers can't write well, because that isn't true at all; just that teenage me couldn't write for shit!

So yeah. That's all I have to say I think? If you chose to read this and also find it bad, just know that we share the same feelings and its not like I get paid to write so I dont exactly care 🤪

anyways. stream black swan.
