@BearFiend | this feels like a play on “why is grief if not love persevering” or something along those lines XD

I promise I still exist, it’s just that school inconveniently /also/ exists at the same time as me!

Hey I was wondering if your still continuing/ writing ‘reborn tempest’  story as it  really good so far 

BearFiend

( @moonlightfox65 ) I’m happy to hear that you enjoy it! I would like to continue writing it, yes, but school and life and writer’s block are kicking my butt right now, so unfortunately an update would likely be sometime far, far in the future. :(

Hello Author-san (can I even call you that? I dunno, but it seems most appropriate, so apologies), 
          
          I'm uh... not really sure if I'm doing this right, I've never done a conversation in Wattpad before (I... literally just found out today. 5+ years of using this app and just found out this exists-), so I apologize greatly if my question is intrusive! 
          
          But are you doing alright? 
          
          It sounds weird, coming from a stranger online, but I've been noticing a lack of activity in conversations and books alike and was wondering if you've been taking care of yourself.
          
          Granted, this isn't something I should be bothering you with, but I hope you know that even if it takes an entire year, your readers and viewers are behind you! You've got this, whatever it may be, school/college (I don't know your age so I'm sorry-), writer's block, lack of motivation, being chased by impending storms, or just overall business, please know that we readers are here to cheer you on! 
          
          And I also came to thank you.
          
          Your stories are inspiring. They breathe such life into the characters, characters that we know and love. You capture each one so distinctively that I can't help but actually think it's the character. There have been numerous times I nearly spat out my drink from laughter. 
          
          Daelana is everything I could ask in a Fairy Tail OC, realistic and grounded yet still filling into the actual story with little to no problem.
          Daelana's healing journey and her handling of grief are just... it's so unique. It doesn't feel rushed, it doesn't feel like an excuse for her to grow, it's not just there to be THERE, you know? It feels so natural, and this was before you started making your chapters so aesthetically pleasing! That's amazing! YOU'RE Amazing!

I honestly did not expect a response, I don't know whether to die from fangirling/fanboying or to just dance around in celebration. 
            
            I'm glad to know you're doing alright, thank you for taking time out of your to respond to my very cheesy, borderline fanmail of a conversation! Make sure you're getting enough rest and don't overexert yourself to do things when you're not feeling up to it! 
            
            Daelana is my spirit animal, I strive to be like her. Her sass and comebacks makes me laugh so much (Arashi being called "giant ugly gecko" is my favorite). 
            
            I will admit, the last part caught me off guard and now I'm here, sitting in my office chair and going "goddam, did I become a catalyst?" 
            I am honored, thank you again!

            oh my goodness! this feels like I’ve been sent a letter and it’s lovely!
            
            to answer your question, yes I am doing alright. my lack of activity the result of a culmination of factors that range from being older and going to college to being fixated on fandoms that I don’t write publicly for to losing motivation to write as much as I used to. thank you so much for you concern though, I genuinely appreciate it and your support is really, really sweet!
            
            I’m so happy you enjoy my little storm gremlin dealana! she is the first oc that I’ve ever written and published something for online and really kicked off my writing on here. I’m also glad that I was able to portray her grief and healing journey the way I wanted to while also being well-received by readers! 
            
            please don’t worry about how “cheesy” you sound! honestly, your message came to me at the perfect time because I am determined to get some writing done for one of my published stories and you’ve definitely jumpstarted my motivation! I also want to encourage you to continue thinking of your own OCs even if you don’t write for them. (the amount of OC’s I have but don’t write for and just have pinterest boards or silly playlists for is more than I’ll ever admit to, lol!)
