Do you have any kidfics?? Specifically ones that center around the child and their personality and stuff like that?? One where they're older would be interesting, though I have yet to find one, though I'll read literally anything with that concept regardless since they seem far and few. Thank you! I hope your day is lovely <33
Ooo, not much, honestly, or at least none I've read personally! Did a quick tag search on my MFL list, and came up with these ones. As usual, if anyone has fics to suggest, please do!!
