to preface this story, i've really liked your art and style, and have been following you ever since i got into TMA back in 2020 (i even own some of your art— gorgeous earrings)! and earlier today i was talking to my teacher about studying art in college (i'm a senior in high school about to graduate) and my teacher mentioned that his friend had studied art at the same university we were talking about, and how now they were a full-time artist. he excitedly went to show me their work and you can imagine my shock (surprise? horror?) when he pulled up YOUR instagram. i guess sometimes in life your boring U.S. history teacher is good friends with your favorite toxic yaoi fan artist. what a small world ...

Oh my GOD??? This is INSANE I’m cackling???? Thank you for sharing this, it honestly has made my week! It also reminds me of when I went to college and found out my RA was one of my favorite artists — the world can be so small and art has that crazy ability of connecting us in the weirdest ways!

And I’m you all the best with graduating and any of your future studies!!
