Hello, it feels like I am completely late to the party. But, anyways! Wanted to share some of my thoughts. I finished reading TB for the first time now and then the explained ending. It has been a journey. Firstly, I was just obsessed with how playful, outrages and kind of unrealistic the fic was, where the absurdity was the fun part. The writing was absolutely captivating and the scenes just amazing. I was aching while reading, knowing that the fic is discontinued. BUT THEN. After reading the ending explained. I am just blown away how you wanted to gradually layer the darker psychological elements and twist it into something heavier. The ending is a tonal whiplash and left me shocked and heartbroken. To the point that I started to be happy and relieved that it was never written further. LOL. I just feel like I wouldn't be able to survive the spiral into something that would hurt to read. The sequel on the other hand feels like a healing arc that is just so poetic and would show stability and love after trauma. My final point being: amazing idea, breathtaking writing and just inspirational for other writers. Thank you and good luck with everything in life!
