Chapter 47: forty-five - Where Are They Now

Notes:

*in the middle of writing fics for entirely different fandoms* hey what if i added on to this long-completed fic instead

anyway yeah hi idk what i'm doing here either. i was rereading this for fun a few weeks ago (does that sound pretentious fuckskjd) when suddenly i realized "wait it's been almost two years since i uploaded chapter one omg" and then in a fit of insanity i wrote this brand new Where Are They Now chapter that shows that literally nothing has changed except there are now more emojis

did i need to do this? absolutely not but currently i'm struggling to finish any of my other numerous wips so i came back to this and it was fun so really that's all that matters <3 hopefully nobody like mindsksdfj

so! to old readers i hope you enjoy and to any possible new readers what's up i hope you also enjoy. fun fact this ended up longer than most of the previous chapters bc i just wanted to put So Much. if it wasn't obvious i really do miss writing annos a lot but oh well

anyway enjoy hopefully <3

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Notes:

god this went all over the place im so sorry i hope its coherent enough to be amusing

anyway there's that! i really do hope it was enjoyable i laughed a lot while writing it bc i still think i'm incredibly funny even now. my favorite part is you can see how my own texting style has changed over time

i hope you've all been well despite the disaster the last almost two years have been and i hope you're all staying safe and getting vaxxed and everything <3

also despite not being actively into IT anymore i'm still fairly active on tumblr (enbywinchester) and twitter (@bikyoru) if anyone needs to know for any reason! just be warned that i'm a weeb now though sorry

okay i'm done rambling here i didn't even mean to i was just gonna drop this bonus chapter and go but my a/ns are always so long . but yes that's all! thank you for reading <3
