hi imma give you all a little sneak-peek on the short story i'm writing cause i'm hella inspired for that one specifically:
          	
          	Is there a stickier smell than that of oranges? 
          	
          	It clings to someone’s whole person, stays for hours and eventually fades away. But by then you have the chemicals wired into your being, and all you can smell is the oranges you ate a while before.
          	
          	Places hold memories. Smells, sounds, old habits that even time can’t break, they all do. 
          	
          	Jisung sits by the same riverbank every summer and watches everyone go. He holds a basket full of oranges by his side, eats one or two, but his grandfather can’t come pick them from the trees with him anymore, and he hasn’t tasted orange jam since his grandmother passed.
          	
          	Things in the town changed, but nothing really changed at all.
          	
          	Jisung stands up, dusts his hands on his old jeans. He picks up the old wicker basket, even though it’s falling apart a little bit in every place. 
          	
          	He ties it at the back of his bike, tightens the ropes to make sure it’s secure, and starts pedaling towards home with the last hues of afternoon sunlight hitting his back, warming it up.
          	
          	The air around him is dry, hot. It ruffles his hair, messes the strands. Ebony spreads like a halo around his face as the wind lifts it, and his white tank top sticks to his body in uncomfortable ways, a product of the sweat that clings to his whole person. It’s stained with soil. It smells of oranges.

They took the story down!!

suckingminhosthighs

Hello! IMPORTANT. 
          
          there is a user here that is copying Brighter days, an original work posted on Ao3 by mrehk (link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/62157001), and posting it here without crediting, claiming it as her original story.
          
          there is nothing i hate more in the world than plagiarism. I've tried telling her to credit the original author but she keeps deleting my comments, so I have reported the story and would really appreciate it if some of you could report it too for plagiarism as well so it can be taken down. 
          
          the story is the one linked to this post. thank you all, i love you. (also I'm currently almost done with a STARBOUND update).

@stars4hyunlix okay this is the third time I tried to answer to your message with the speech to text tool on my keyboard because I keep posting instead of deleting and it's frustrating. I can't type because I'm walking my dog and I also don't have patience to wait until I'm back home to answer so this will have to do. what I was trying to say is that they have updated the description of the story to include a link to the original work on Archive of her own (at the and like an afterthought, probably to shut me up) but that is not enough for me because in the cover, that is the first thing people notice when they're looking for a book to read on Wattpad, it still says that the story is by Ellan Johnson. also if you have read any of the original author's works on Archive of our own you see on every end chapter note that she specifically says not to publish or translate any of her stories, and for this girl to go against something mrehk (the og author) asked... sorry but it pmo
