“#ANYWAYS I hope this makes someone smile” do you mind if we turn this post into a trainwreck of the Moments When We Are +16% Gay?
I absolutely don’t mind! 😀

Perhaps your brain just forgot to add “nice”? 😉

LET’S GO WITH THAT THAT SOUNDS REASONABLE

XD if it makes you feel better, in rough drafts, I often describe characters’ faces with emoticons.. like “she said with a -.- face”

THAT’S SO GREAT. I love seeing other people’s shorthand like that

This is like a tiny time travel

IT REALLY IS. I can’t ever properly journal so it’s great to have these little surprising tidbits.

Ah hell yes it can be hella scary. But it’s great, too! And it’ll happen and you’ll love it 😀

Thank you! I’m really starting to believe it 😀

I’m so happy for you! While you don’t need any sort of physical situation for your orientation to be valid, I totally get that until you do something there’s that ??? Is this real feel??? And ESP for lesbians and bi women that’s a huge thang because of all them societal things

I’m sorry I went into The Discourse but yeah I’m happy for you!!!

NO WORRIES. And thank you! There’s sometimes a disconnect for me between feelings and reality/action, so just knowing my orientation has been separate from ever acting on it, and as much as I try and pursue stuff, I usually still think of it as something that won’t ever happen. So having even a little thing happen kind of blows that open. And admittedly, it’s nice to feel like I’m on my way to maybe not having to worry about people finding out I’ve only been with men, which is silly but definitely a thing.

lol I wanted to comment about how she totally wanted to jump Renly’s bones, but then I saw you got the tag about it so yeah XD

SHE SO DID. I kind of find it funny, because people use all the same arguments I see a lot to deny lesbians to deny Brienne having feelings for Renly and Jaime. SHE JUST FEELS LOYALTY TO THEM. PLATONIC LOYALTY.  THAT SCENE IN AFFC WHERE SHE GETS AROUSED BY THE MEMORY OF JAIME AND MAKES HERSELF THINK OF RENLY INSTEAD IS PLATONIC.

what a great study of Michiru’s character!

Thank you! It was really interesting to write Michiru from the perspective of someone who doesn’t know her well yet.

Aw this was lovely, one has to wonder how Michiru felt deep inside when she waited for Rei’s answer to her question about them being friends 😀

Thanks! Ahaha I imagine she tried very hard to convince herself she didn’t care, but Rei is one of what, five? maybe? people she genuinely likes, so I doubt it worked.

paksenarrion-reader replied to your post “Michiru and Rei, "Are you flirting with me?"”

oh gawd Michiru testing the ground with all the shields up. With a shade of emotional blackmail into not hurting her feelings. AND THEN OH GOD THE SHIELDS COME DOWN AAAAA. I never knew I needed this until THERE IT WAS

I’m glad you liked it! When I first saw the prompt I assumed whatever I wrote would be pretty funny, but then I got thinking about how they became friends, because I can’t imagine them having an easy time facilitating their connection. And the idea of Michi being the one to reach out stuck.

Angst and pain, the best way to start Monday… 😦 This was awesome, but so painful

Ahaha this is one of the ones where it hurt to write, and then trying to read through for typos…
