This is mostly for reading an early draft of our recent short story, but also to recognize your 'bravery' for including MLM imagery in your creation haha. ✨

Sad that you should have cause to make that comment. I can't fathom why a male creator would not in principle. I mean, what is there to be afraid of?

Totally not necessary to add the gift to your earlier comments. But thank you nevertheless. Our friendship is gift enough 😍 🤗

P.S. If you'd made the girl in the first frame a brunette, it'd mirror my own life journey haha.

I was leaning into you true love in the choice of hair colour.

Perfect presentation my friend, THIS is what counts.

nice message - life is hard sometimes, though
@faerierealm · Mar 15, 2026
Well said, and likewise! 💖

Yes, although Gael never had her heart broken by a guy (unless you include her dad, who disowned her at an early age). But you didn't know that when you made this image. And we love it regardless! In fact, we're going to tip it, because we owe you for reading an early draft of our short story. Thanks again!
