Love Unwritten (Damon Salvatore x Reader)
˚₊·➳❥ AU/alternate canon
"A love that transcends time, falling into a new soul each generation again and again through eternity. And so shall this golden child embark a journey bearing trials in which she knows not. By force she will be thieved and in doing so the demon marks its own penance. And the song of passion may dwindle in the face of eternal and with death shall the ancient feel the fate that was once taken."

hi :P i'm developing this story into something similar however much better rounded. I don't kin with a lot of the things I wrote here as I've grown a lot as a writer in the 3-4 years since I first posted. Gosh, it's been that long? Sure doesn't feel like it. With this project, I had set a pretty strict schedule for myself so that I could make sure I went through with writing it. I wrote every single day for three hundred days straight. no ragerts. anyway, a lot of this story is just sooo reader-insert, y/n core but i'm choosing, from this moment onward, to look back on it with endearment. Look onto most of these scenes--especially the fact that I somehow gave everyone a surprise birthday party--with humour and a healthy amount of cringe. Don't worry, I don't mind. I'm doing the same thing. Besides that, the story has a lot of interesting callbacks and interpersonal dynamics I still feel proud of. My favourite chapters are '12. Damon', '14. What Has and What Will Happen', and '16. Unease Among the Formers'.
Anywayyyy enjoy :P
