happy birthday to our wonderful tokuno yushi!  let's all hope he has the most beautiful day surrounded by the people he loves. let's hope he always remembers to take care of himself, and that he knows how much his hard work, talent, and quiet warmth mean to us. and from my own brain to him: thank you for being my favorite muse, and honestly, my favorite piece of art that God ever created. i will always be in awe of you, not just as a breathtaking artist, but as a genuinely beautiful soul.
          	
          	to celebrate his special day, i wanted to share a little gift with all of you who have been so incredibly patient and supportive. chapters 4 and 5 of offside are now officially updated!
          	
          	thank you for always waiting for me and for being such a kind, understanding community. i really hope you enjoy reading these new chapters as much as i loved writing them for you. let's all send lots of warm wishes to yushi today, and please take care of yourselves. happy reading!

hi everyone. i was actually just getting ready to write the new chapter for offside earlier when i suddenly saw the news about mark. at first, i really tried to convince myself it was just a delayed april fools' joke, but then the reality sank in.
          
          i've been stanning them since 2018, and having already seen mark leave twice, it honestly never gets any easier to process. he has poured so much of his heart, talent, and endless energy into his art over the years, and i appreciate his hard work more than words can say. as bittersweet as this feels, i will absolutely continue to support him. i find a lot of comfort in knowing that he is making the best choice for his own well-being right now, he is finally choosing himself, and he completely deserves to do that.
          
          to honor him and everything he means to us, i am going to write a special short story dedicated to mark soon.
          
          as for my regular updates, thank you so much for your patience while i take a moment to gather my thoughts today. i will be finishing the next chapter for yushi tomorrow. i hope you can wait just a little bit longer for it. thank you all for always being so understanding and supportive. please take care of yourselves today, tomorrow, always <3

hello everyone! thank you so much for all the love on the story so far. i wanted to ask your opinion on something: do you prefer stories written in 1st person or 3rd person pov?
          
          i also wanted to share a quick update regarding the offside. after rereading it recently, i noticed there were quite a few filler moments that don't push the plot forward. because i want this story to be the best it can be, i've decided to revise it! i have my common final exams coming up, so the revisions will start right after i'm completely done with those. thanks for being so understanding, i appreciate you all!

@zhaeynaa Hi! 3rd person pov really worked well for Offside but It will also be crazy to have a 1st person pov of the characters once in a while. I hope this makes sense.

hiiii, everyone! sorry for the late updates. i just got really busy with my acads, so i didn't have time for the past few weeks.
          
          today i finally have some free time, so i just need to proofread what i’ve written in my draft and will post it later once everything looks good!
          
          once again, thank you so much for your patience and for sticking around. i hope you enjoy the new chapter and are taking care of yourselves!
