Hey, everyone.
          	
          	This is a post I honestly never thought I would have to write.
          	
          	After reading Wattpad's newly updated Content Guidelines, I've made the decision to move completely and entirely over to AO3.
          	
          	Going forward, AO3 will be my home for my writing and translations. You can find me there under the exact same username I use here on Wattpad, so if you've genuinely enjoyed my stories over the years and want to continue reading what I write and translate, that's where I'll be. 
          	
          	I know some people might think I'm jumping the gun. Maybe Wattpad won't remove everything immediately. Maybe my account would survive for quite a while. But I've been on the internet and in fandom spaces long enough to recognize when the winds are changing.
          	
          	Considering the kinds of stories I write and the works I translate, I don't feel comfortable gambling years of work in the hope that my account won't eventually be affected by Wattpad's changing standards. Maybe I'm wrong. I genuinely hope I am. But I'd rather make this decision myself than wake up one morning and discover the decision was made for me.
          	
          	And truthfully, the guidelines aren't the only reason.
          	
          	Many of the writers and friends I once came here to see don't really post on Wattpad anymore. A lot of the readers who once followed and interacted with my stories aren't active here either. Over the years, I've watched this place become quieter and quieter.
          	
          	So, farewell, Wattpad.
          	
          	It's been one hell of a journey.
          	
          	And to every reader and friend I've met along the way, whether you're following me to AO3 or this is the last thing of mine you'll ever read:
          	
          	"Stay safe."
          	
          	"Be kind."
          	
          	And above everything else, "have compassion."
          	
          	The internet and the world could always use a little more of it.
          	
          	Farewell, my friends. ❤️
          	
          	I'll see some of you on AO3.
          	
          	—Poppy

@brother001 This will be the only time I ask this. Please stop asking for updates back to back. I appreciate the enthusiasm and love for the story, but I am a mother who works. It's stressing me out. Be patient.
            
            if you cannot be patient, then on a03 is the full story in its native language you can use google translate to read.

@Poppy_Cosmos As someone who has lost her own father in December 10th of 2024, all I can tell you by experience is this: whatever you have to get off your chest, all you couldn't tell him in life, do it. Or you'll regret it otherwise. To me, it was a rather freeing experience, and I highly encourage it. 
            
            I still remember when I was to bid him my last farewell, how I sat alone before his casket and looking upon him as he laid there. How thankful I was for everything he did for me in life, what I regretted being unable to do for him, and how I would continue living on in his name, carrying his memory and legacy. And so on...
            
            It hurt like you don't know how, that I won't deny, but the sense of liberation I got from it all... To me it was worth it. It was the nearest thing to closure I'd ever get, one last heart to heart. And it's a memory I'll forever carry with me.
            
            Don't know if it'll work for you, all I know is that for me it did. And if it helps you too, then I'll be glad it does.

Greetings, during this incredibly difficult time, I ask for your understanding and compassion. I'm not fully ready to speak publicly on it yet; as I am still really grappling with the fact my daddy is no longer here.  I kindly request your patience and prayers as I work through my grief. 
          
          As of now, I do not plan to update any works, including my translations. (minus the automatic fanfics I have already established.) 
          
          I am utterly lost, angry, and devastated.
