Oh, no worries, they won’t. Well, I mean, that might happen but it wouldn’t be because of you, I do still plan to gif it, in exhaustive detail, and answer the other 20 or so asks waiting. And of course even if yours was the only ask, you’re not responsible for other people’s behavior.
If you still don’t want to send it as an ask, you can just message me, I’ve been chatting with friends about it for days. The reason I’ve been slow to answer the remaining asks is that I have so many things I want to say, much that I’m still thinking over, spread out over so many posts, and now that the initial anger’s burned out, I’m back to my more careful approach. I’m not entirely sure I can find the words these asks deserve, and am no longer rushing to post despite that without that first night’s fire.
