I survive on a second chance
Four days off work (not even idle, just... off work, consecutively) was really the worst thing possible for my current mental health. I seem to be bouncing back, but it has been a Rough Time.

I've gotten two random emails requesting fic in the last two weeks. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it new?
Neither seems to have... ever read my fic beyond confirming that I've written in a specific fandom, and one very clearly wanted not!trans Elliot Page fic and misgendered him, which makes me ponder the ethical question of keeping fic featuring him online.
1) RPF, deadnaming: Leaning toward pulling this completely. I had locked it to AO3 users when Elliot first came out, but that doesn't feel like enough.
2) Fic where Elliot canonically plays a girl: I don't think this needs to go away, but maybe I need to go through and make sure all of my authors notes don't misgender him?

I see all of the love meme links, and I love you all, I just don't have the oomph to participate even in the commenting.
