Hi Grey! Could be a message on the longer end, but I wanted to get it across to you nonetheless. It's been so incredibly long since I last logged in here and caught up with works that I used to love, but BSE has always stood out and stuck with me. I think I last read it when it had 14-ish chapters (and I was 14 myself xD) . BSE comes across to me as a work that you've put a great deal of soul into, and after binge re-reading all of it, it washes me over once again with all the reasons why I loved it so much on the first read. I hope you know that you're already a prolific writer and you can only get into the leagues of the very best moving forward. Come on, BSE was doing otome isekai before it went mainstream xD That first passage is beyond exquisite. Don't let your inhibitions and baseless criticism get to you (I hope they aren't, but still), BSE deserves to be finished if that's what you intend for it. And if writing on here still calls out to you, I hope you return to it. I for one would be absolutely thrilled.
Warmest regards,
A fan who's been rooting for you and BSE for around 5 years, if my memory serves me right :)
