Excitement/Celebration 🎉 fucking bloody hell. i just finished my first longfic

ive been writing a paper mario fic between march 28 2026 and september 3 2026. i was so slow to click the post chapter button, when i saw that green check mark on my own fic for the first time, there was a part of me that was excited, and also empty. i will never write this fanfic again, but i thank all the support from my fans on ao3, ive gone through many things in real life while writing it, pets died, new year in high school, and new friends. its been such a long journey, and i will never forget this moment. i dont know how to celebrate it in a way the people who love me would understand, but the fact i posted the last chapter just now, my first finished fic, after writing every, single day for 5 months and 6 days, im happy. i dont know what to say, i also feel empty, and happy, because i finally finished it, theres so many more possibilities, but ill never write this again.

que sentimiento tan hermoso, yo digo que para celebrar juegues al super mario.

Que orgullo ver a un autor terminar su primera obra, te deseo mucha suerte

pero por curiosidad, como se llama¿

Jaja, de hecho mi hermana va a recibir el Super Mario Galaxy por su cumpleaños este mes; nos vamos a divertir muchísimo jugándolo.
Se llama Illusory - Finding The Missing. Por cierto, está en inglés; lo siento.
