hiiiiiiiii...
So. For anyone still following, I'm the owner of this account. (The one I'm posting from was my side account I made to share things with my friends without exposing myself as an X Reader author.) I've been locked out of the email for CasualCactus for a few years, been meaning to recover it to reset my password but i just haven't gotten around to it.
I'm not dead. Just an adult who spent years being embarrassed about being "cringe" enough to write wattpad fanfiction. If i'm being honest, I still won't read most of what I wrote back then - I was thirteen when i made this account, so i feel like that's natural, i've grown a lot as a person since then. However, I've also grown as a person since I abandoned my fics. I didn't realize just how much people loved them - didn't imagine that people would still be commenting on them well after I had moved on not only from Wattpad, but from middle school, from high school, from my hometown.
I don't say I dislike the things I've posted to shame anyone who does like them. I'm so honestly, genuinely touched by the people asking how I'm doing, hoping I may update one day. I'm so glad I could bring y'all joy with my silly little project I used to waste class time typing under my desk or scribbling in my notebooks to transcribe later.
If I manage to get the account back I might - MIGHT - write a little epilogue for those of you who stuck around. Either way, thank you for your kind words over the last six years.
Also, to all my boys and other non-she/her users in the comments: sorry I disappeared before I saw y'all... you'll be glad to know karma got me and I'm one of y'all these days ✊
