embrace the shame—!!!!

have you fallen in love? or did you date someone before? (you can ignore this if it is too personal ☺️)

i really love how you write fanfictions. That's why I'm kinda curious where and how you get your inspiration for writing them.

i like how you always do research and readings for the worldbuilding of your stories but how you develop the relationship between your characters is a whole different thing.

again, i know it's weird but when im bored, i always look up your username on twitter or here on tumblr. whenever i see someone is happy reading your stories, i always feel a moment of pride that i get to be in the kagehina ficdom so that i could read your works.

Hi there! :D

Oh gosh *chuckles shyly* I've never fallen in love, and it's not because the people around me are awful, but it's really more on me for not trying. Maybe someday I will!

I don't have to search far for examples of romantic love though! I'm surrounded by folks in long-term relationships and those who can't stay in a relationship for more than 3 months lmao so it's not exactly hard for me to glean what makes a romance work or not. And I'm quite priviledged to work in a field where I meet a variety of people from all walks of life; once they feel comfortable with you, they open up to you, share stories about their partners, their families, etc., and you just... kinda get a feel for it, you know? Even if I myself have never been in a situation like theirs.

Plus I watch/read a fuckton of romance or romance-adjacent movies/books/series lol, I'd wager more than the average person. Once you've been exposed enough you do see a pattern! :DDD
