Hello! I decided to keep this anonymous because: -internet safety- but today (May 9th) is actually the last day of school for seniors, including me, at my high school!
I wanted to write this to express my gratitude to The Lion Guard tumblr community for being such a wonderful community to interact with.
I think I joined the TLG tumblr community late 2024 when I first made for tumblr account searching for Hadestown stuff. Then I eventually typed in "the lion-" at one point and then the Lion King and Lion Guard showed up! I think one of the first posts I saw was either one by @devilsrecreation or @spinnysocks lol. It was a story or au of one of the outlanders I think-
Honestly reading your posts/aus/stories and talking about TLG with you all honestly helped get me through senior year. I didn't really talk about it with my friends much - because y'know Disney Junior show - but I started to open up a bit about it, and even showed one of my friends some of my fanfic, and they said it was pretty good! :)
I have also never written fanfiction AT ALL or even thought I would write it in the first place, since English isn't my best school subject, and I never thought I would fanficiton would be for me, outside of reading it lmao - but it's actually so much fun and I was genuinely so surprised when I started writing it this school year lol. (Also, no, none of my works are finished yet lmao. One is like, 70% written? One is mostly bullet points of ideas, and the other one is just long dialog pieces with a few little descriptions for certain scenes/moments. However, I am hoping to finish the first one over the summer :D)
And no, I will not be telling you my ao3 account, you're gonna have to find that yourselves <;) [plus it saves me and my actual account from embarrassment lol]
You guys are so creative and supportive. Thank you for being such a positive and wholesome fandom. I hope I'll still be able to be active here when college starts later this August, but seeing that @kaythefloppa, @tired-lamb, and @spinnysocks can do it, I probably can do it too.
Thank you guys so, so, so, so much! God bless you guys :) <3
