poem is a villanelle by me :3 (the words were screenshot from an edition of the brothers karamazov #easteregg but i did not bookmark it so i dont know which edition,, one of the ones on the internet archive anyway)

this absolute labour of love and angst is dedicated to all of daniilnation, it dedicated to all of my mutuals who have put up with me saying i'm working on this beast of a post for 12 whole months, and it is dedicated to bestie @jakehughesrace for being right in the danger zone of my turmoil every time i opened the draft. oh and i guess its also dedicated to daniil himself XD
