Just posted what should be the second-to-last chapter of Going Up in Flames.
There's a good chance this will be my last HP fic. For the expected reasons, the lurking spectre of JKR's bigotry etc.
To be honest, the only reason I've even made it this long is because of the people reading and writing (and drawing, and making fests, and compiling rec lists, and running discord servers, and, and...) for Tomarrymort. I've never been in another fandom where people are quite so generous and enthusiastic and welcoming.
I have to out myself and say that (contrary to AO3 appearances) this was never my one true pairing. I started reading HP fic in general because there was lots of good-quality fic and I knew the world and characters well. I started writing it mostly because of the porn possibilities. I only continued because people kept being unimaginably kind about my fics.
So, thanks to everyone who showed me just how enjoyable a fandom can be and encouraging me not to only be a chronic lurker. To anyone who commented on my fics, recced or translated them (!), made fanart or other fics inspired by mine (!!), know you are all my favourite people, no take-backs. Maybe we'll see each other in another fandom some day.
