Unknown Forces Compelled Me To Draw This

My dad was dealing with some mixed feelings so I told him "In therapy when something is too complicated to do a simple 'pro and contra list' we sometimes do an excercise where you imagine all these mixed feelings around a table in some kind of conference, letting each tell their bit and you leading the debate."

and my dad didn't really respond and just stared ahead so I kept preparing lunch. Until a few minutes later when he suddenly piped up: "I am having a bad time at the conference"

every summer it's like "oh summer means time to watch stranger things again" but then fall comes and im like "oh spooky season, time to watch stranger things again" and then winter comes and im like "ah, the holidays! perfect time for stranger things" and then spring comes and im like "you know what i haven't watched in a while? stranger th--

Hi, still Sam here.

I moved my art on this blog.

I’ll slowly post everything again.

head in hands thinking about how will isn’t even in denial about his feelings for mike and being gay. he’s long since accepted this part of him and started absolutely hating himself for it.

he’s not “if i try to suppress it, it’ll go away” type. he’s “this is who i am and it’s wrong and filthy but it’s who i am nonetheless. i am wrong and filthy” type. head in hands did i mention

i need to study kabru

I just wanted to start off by saying that i love your story and i think you’re a really great writer, i cant wait for the next chapter. even though i don’t like troy lol, i really liked how we can also gain insight on his situation and seeing how it relates to byler (specifically mike). i think it was an interesting creative route to take.

my question was just going to be about how often you update. do you like to update periodically or whenever you finish the chapter?

genuinely just curious, this isn’t meant to come off as rushing you or anything.

hey there! i am so glad you are liking the story. it's been one that i've been meaning to write for a while, and after sitting on it for a few months (i started it back in april) the full picture of it really came together and i was able to start writing it again.

i am glad you've liked the creative choice! that makes me happy. and yes, troy isn't necessarily likable, nor was it my intention for him to be. i wanted to keep his personality something that was recognizable from canon, but i also wanted the character i have written not be one note or everything revolving around him be black and white. i wasn't interested in having him be a one note villain. in this story we see that yes, he is will's villain, and we think he's mike's villain at first, until we are given more information. but yes, like, i didn't write him with the intention on making people love troy haha. more so, to be able to empathize with the horrible situation he deals with and that yes, the way he is, is a normal response to that. even if it makes him ulikable. the thing about people in our life who are assholes and we don't like, doesn't mean that abuse they might have suffered is any less real or valid. and that was what i was trying to explore here a little bit. (and how it relates to mike and his pain too.)

it seems I've been updating at least once a week pretty regularly. i generally am a person who posts after I've finished writing each chapter and done some edits. i have to story all outlined, so it's really just getting the words on the page at this point. but yes, i write each new chapter after the next, i don't have them pre-written. so it's kind of when i finish them. i will say i won't be updating any other stories of mine until this one is finished. it's just a very specific headspace that i don't want to get out of and try to write something else. i feel bad for those reading the pact, lol, as i've started a chapter for that and left it sitting, but it's just how it's gonna have to be for now. 😅

but yeah! i updated yesterday, and should have another update by the end of the week. :) i expect there to be 10ish more chapters and an epilogue. and I expect the story to be complete by the end of the month or shortly into november. <3

anyways, thanks so much dropping in my inbox! <333
