#friendversary

My dear dear @ofmd-ann 365 days ago exactly was when I first sent a message your way and 365 days that I’m honoured to call you a friend, not just any friend, a best friend 💛 a wee little short film about Taika as a pilot was what started our friendship and for that I’m grateful 💛 we’ve been together in dark days, light days, cold days, hot days and the best days are the ones that we get to talk. I love your voice notes that always start with "hello" and end with "I’ll talk to you later" 🫶🏻 you’re the Stede to my Ed 🫶🏻 I love sharing a life with you and gosh darn it it’s not fair I was born in the wrong hemisphere 😭 one day we will go have coffee together and walk and talk and look at the ocean and have cake together and watch ofmd together 🥰 to many more Ann-iversaries together! I love you, nut 🥜

He gives a "borf" to the viewer as the area around him says with an aquamarine ribbon, "To Lang and Os, Happy 6th Year Friendversary. From Vy. 4/1/2023." End Description.]

Because being called a disrespectful, racist bitch for the first time by a lady I passed in the trolley doesn't stop me from honoring an important day. So, here we are. With Bond and all.

@langwrites, @windwardstar - I've known you two for 6 years running now. And it's thanks to you two I'm writing in the first place and in a much better place than I used to be.

I got a comment on Butterscotch and Bones on AO3.

Then I replied to that comment. And that stranger commented back. And back and forth, back and forth, until we had ten threads on AO3, four on FanFiction.Net, then another on Tumblr. Plus all the posts we kept tagging each other in. Threads of conversation started and ended just about every day.

Just over two years ago, I first spoke to that stranger face-to-face on Skype.

And over a year and a half ago now, I hopped on a plane to Canada (all by myself - my first time alone) and tackle-hugged that definitely-no-longer-a-stranger in a Toronto airport.

Well, @randomcat1832​, you know the rest of the story, and any of you who have followed this blog for a while know at least some of it. I know I just about never post here anymore, but I had to jump on here to celebrate three years of friendship with one of the very best friends I’ve ever had.

(This post would be a lot longer and a lot sappier, but there’s a letter currently on its way to Canada that contains the rest of the sappiness in spades. ;) )

It’s been a crazy ride together, with so much getting to know each other and so many “firsts.” It doesn’t feel like so long ago sometimes, but other times it feels like a lifetime. And there’s many, many more years to come.

Happy three-year friendversary, Cat. Love you so much <3 <3 <3

Today, Jan 27 is exactly one year since I messaged a special someone about her super dirty Roger Taylor fic (if you haven’t read Be My Pet............ you’re missing out) and it was that cheesy start of something amazing. @mypassionfortrash, Laura, you beautiful soul, I cannot be more grateful to have you in my life. Thank you for a year full of thirsting, emotional breakdowns, best advice to grace this world and so many pretty photos of our number one blonde thot. Thank you for bringing so many good things into my life, be it gorgeous people or beautiful writing. Thankyouthankyouthankyou!! 🌟💕
