Had a complete brain meltdown and I may have done the best typo anyone has ever done in a OFMD fic

This is apparently Ed's new alter ego 🤣🤣

I got an email the other day that someone had left kudos on about 9 of my fics and I nearly cried

Blackbeard's Lesbian Earring @bbslezearring.bsky.social · 2d

lrt: the single greatest gift you can give a writer on ao3 is going through all their fics and reading them and kudos-ing them. Even if the fics are so old. No one has ever been upsettios about opening a long kudos email in the morning.
