#gratuitous baseball

love, love, love. in the midst of everything, getting to celebrate this project with you all has made me feel so fulfilled and so mind-numbingly happy. just. sending so much love and thanks. it’s been three years since down the line was published and i still can’t believe people care about these gay little baseball players in the same way i do.

bmh readers are literally the loveliest souls in the universe. you must know comments like this one prompted more than dozens and dozens of tears:

thank you for being gentle with both me and my stories. this is the safest place i know.

the 2024 baseball season begins TODAY. i get to see my guardians play a baseball game in about an HOUR.

to celebrate, enjoy a snippet from down the line (harry’s version)

down the line is forever my love letter to cleveland, to baseball, and to the feeling of being at home- warm and safe in the place you love with the people you love. (and that means summer nights at the ballpark when you’re 3 cans of overpriced beers in and you get to watch a firework show after your team wins. i can’t wait for those nights. 🥹)

((your honor she’s romanticizing baseball again))
