fav genre of wattpad fics has to be when the author wrote it rlly young and they say smth like "don't read this it's so cringe i wrote it when i was like 12" yet they still keep it public. like yes it's cringe but it was your truth and i'm glad you're living it and letting us have the option to read it knowing someone might come back for a nostalgia trip/it might be someone's guilty pleasure. and so what if that 'someone' is me. i too deserve to live in my truth ✌️
sometimes i ask myself why i ever go back to this fuckass app when ao3 exists then i rmbr i've read every single existing thing i want to read on there so now i have to claw at the wattpad walls in search of something i haven't read yet in order to fill the void
