hello, i hope your year of 2024 has been kind towards you! recently i have read ‘night eats color’ carefully a few weeks ago and it really ate into me due to it’s contents. i wont over share, but i recently have been through quite a lot— this fic was unfortunately relatable in some aspects. haha, i don’t typically read a lot of dark fiction, either — but coming across your piece, i think really touched me. your writing completely captured me. i appreciated how well you write adachi’s perspective, which i found so intriguing. i loved his humanity, and lack thereof. i also felt everything when it came to nanako. every scene placed in that fic felt so important and i found myself rereading each individual section over and over because of how much i kept fixating on the interactions and dynamic between those two. the tension and stress of various scenes had me certainly on edge. and although i wasn’t sad much at all, when i finally reached the final scene, i choked up and burst into tears. i’m sorry if i sound like i’m flattering— but i really treasure this piece from you a lot. your writing’s amazing. i want to start reading more of your other works. i know i could have commented this— and you don’t have to answer this if it’s uncomfortable. i’m very sorry if this feels inappropriate. i really appreciate you sharing this fic. again, i hope you are well. i’m sorry if my english is poor in any of these formats. ——— not inappropriate at all, anon. i couldn’t be more grateful. words like yours are the very highest praise a writer could ever strive receive. it is such a profound honor that a piece of mine could help someone feel seen or heard, or help to heal some part of them, however small. thank you for taking the time to not only read my work, but go out of your way to send such lovely thoughts! the daily grind can sometimes get to me, but feedback like yours keeps me coming back to my writing desk. i hope that life brings you peace and healing. ♥
