Okay, I was searching through FanFiction.net (unlike many, I don’t refer to it as the “Pit,” seeing as I still post stuff there), hoping for a good fic.

Oh yes, how could I miss that? ADHD or anything like that is a lame excuse and has no reason to be an excuse.

Oh yes, sorry about that. It's just that I've found that people who usually do that don't have it. I have something similar to it, which makes me feel bad when someone uses it as an excuse when they don't have it.
