There is no reader more generous, invested, and gracious than fanfic readers. You offer your heart to me every time you read a fic, and there are no words adequate enough to say thank you for being so open to every fic experiment I’ve dropped on you for the last two years. Thank you for each and every kudo, comment, reblog, tweet, fanart, meta and general flailing you’ve shared with me. Thank you for trusting me and supporting me. As much as I love Malec, I love y’all more. Thank you.

There are secrets to be kept not because we want to live a lie. It has very little to do with a lack of honor or pride either, it’s figuring out a way to be ourselves in a world that, for the most part, doesn’t reflect us. And it’s safety, because some people will actively condemn us, or try to hurt us, and we never know who those people will be.
