Follow up: I see your tumblr in your bio, do you mind if I follow you?

@ Dreagonswoes  Not at all, go ahead! I specifically put socials in my bio so people can find me there if they want. And no worries about your first message, it didn't come across as pressuring at all, if I wasn't planning on writing more I would've had no problem just saying so and still appreciate the compliment that you enjoyed the first fic enough to ask if there's more coming

Do you have plans to continue doing Jonmartin fics? Maybe a longer one? You've been filling the TMA shaped hole in my heart since I finished season 5 last week

@Dreagonswoes I'm so excited! I've been loving "Overcome" so far! I actually found "Being Present" on AO3 and it took me a bit to realize you were the same author. No need to apologize for the wait in responding, I don't get notifications so it took me a bit to respond too. I realized after leaving the message on the board that if you didn't plan on doing any more it would probably be very pressuring for you so I was worried about that, either way, love your writing!

@ Dreagonswoes  Hi! Yes I remember seeing your username on one of my fics!! It hasn't been long since I finished tma for the first time myself so I feel your pain, glad I could help a little 
            And yes absolutely, I have one more Jmart fic that I just finished a short fic yesterday and will start posting daily now, it's smutty though so I don't know if that's your cup of tea. The fic that already has three chapters up (called "Overcome") is going to be a longer one set in the safehouse cabin exploring Martin's past-Lonely struggles, them getting together and navigating the early stages of the new relationship (it'll also have smut eventually but that should be skippable if one doesn't care for that) - and I have at least one more fic idea that I'll probably start writing eventually once "Overcome" is closer to being finished, so... that's the overall plan for now. Glad you're interested in seeing more fics! 
            
            And sorry if I don't respond here super quickly all the time, I mainly use wattpad as a writing tool, my main fanfic account for posting and reading myself is on Ao3 so fics are usually up there earlier than here

Hi, Nayeliq1. I recently read ‘I Forgive You’, which is honestly one of the best fanfictions I’ve ever read so thank you for writing it! You’re a super talented writer, keep it up <3 

Nayeliq1

@ chishiyaissmart  Thank you very much! I'm really happy you enjoyed it, I had a lot of fun writing it. Thanks for taking the time to let me know, I appreciate it :)

Hey! I finally decided to used this channel hahaha Regarding the last fic of yours I was reading (the one you updated yesterday), I just got curious. Like, the idea is totally yours ? Because I'm amazed how deep was indeed all the conversation with god, like you went further than just the two idiots in love (a part I adore to read) but that other part, spiritual one, let's called it, it was really interesting also.

Nayeliq1

@FlorenciaGomezMonroy Thanks! And I'm happy to share, glad you found it insightful. Guess that I'm interested in this is a reason why I'm drawn to media like good omens that reference religious things. My two favourite pairings to write for both involve an angel, can't be a coincidence haha xD Ineffable husbands obvs and destiel from supernatural, very similar dynamics in a lot of ways and just the sort of character I get far too invested in lol

Mm I see. Well, you can be a little less sad because I think you are doing a great job at portraying your approach, like showing there is another way to see and interpret the religious phenomenon. I mean, I'm a really sceptical person regarding religion although I always tried to separate the individual experience from the institutional one, but I never fully understood how the individual experience is, but thanks to you now I got to see a bit of that. And I also didn't know what exactly theology meant, so thanks for teaching a bit about that also, I'm learning a lot with you! Who would have thought that fan fiction teach one so much !

@FlorenciaGomezMonroy Yeah this is the kind of religion I grew up with and I've always been happy I have that bc it's helped me a lot when I was in difficult places in my life, so I'm always sad that through the way it's presented and practised a lot of the time so many ppl have bad experiences with it and don't want anything to do with it. It definitely can be super rigid and I'm not here to tell anyone what to do, I don't really care if ppl are connected to that or not, it just makes me sad that I know it can be such a nice thing to have and maybe some ppl would have been open to having that too but won't now bc they've come in contact with the wrong approach to it yk. Anyway, for me it's basically always about separating faith and the image of God from religion bc a lot of what's practised is just human invention and doesn't have anything to do with God. That's how I see good omens too, the things that are going wrong with heaven are down to some angels making wrong choices and that's separate from god and her vision for the world. Man I'd love to really get into that and pick scenes apart where azi talks about human potential and ineffability and stuff and interpret that stuff in a paper, it'd be so cool. In my studies we basically treat theology like a science so it's not at all like "listen to what the bible says" it's all about interpreting texts in front of the historical background and that sort of thing, getting a more negatively connotated portrayal of theological concepts in media would be so interesting
