Time is Finite (Pick Your Battles)

[astrantiapetals]

A/N: hey everyone! Not quite sure if i'm happy with the way this turned out; I had writer's block about halfway in but I think I fought through it. we'll see I guess. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas! I hope it was wonderful for you all. Sorry the fonts kinda weird, I copy and pasted straight from my textedit thingy

Ah, this was good.

Tiffany's accident startled me a bit (well I guess that was the point), I thought the story was going somewhere else, but I really liked it. People always take things for granted -me included-, it's hard not to unless something happens and then we realize how we've been acting, the things that we should have said or done.

Thank you for this, it's nice reading something different around here.

Hi! Yes, unfortunately time is the one thing people think they have a surplus amount of when it's decidedly the opposite. Thank you for stopping by to read, I'm glad you enjoyed it!! =))

.................:'( BB, THAT WAS SAD. AND AMAZING. AMAZINGLY SAD.

This: "To this day I still wonder why we let such petty things get in the way of our happiness together. I guess I simply thought we had forever."--A reason I take my special someone and hold her tight, even when we're frustrated with each other. Omg I think I feel tears.

and This: "I see your face in everyone I talk to. In the mornings I find myself still apologizing for when my alarm clock goes off."--My stomach hit rock bottom for this one. Gawd, how you regret/crave all the little stupid things once they're gone.

This is not a wise thing to read before bed. You were stop #1 in my journey to catch up with fics! Be proud; be very proud.;)

I loved this and so did my feels. You're a shining star of the fandom, love.♥♥

Welcome back, beautiful!

OMG, I hope this isn't too sad of a bedtime story; i'd feel bad if you went to sleep with it weighing on your mind. IT'S JUST A FIC, DON'T WORRY!! XD The way I like to think about any sort of close relationship (between friends, family or lovers) is when you go to give them a hug, give them an extra one just to remind yourself that they're there.

I do feel like quite the special snowflake, thank you for that! i'm very flattered ^_^ And thank you for the praise - it means a lot to me that you find the stuff I write worthy enough to acknowledge it in that way; I hold all that stuff very close to my heart.

Sleep well =))

This is a really lovely fic :)) I admire how much you can express in so little words. I have to say, I really didn't see Tiffany's death coming, but I suppose it was necessary to get your message across. And you did it beautifully. You have a really nice writing style! Just have to quote some of my favourite lines, hehe.

They say you can measure the happiness of a relationship by the number of scars that each person carries on their tongues, earned from years of biting back angry words.

Affirmations of affection seldom heard; like a gem you keep tucked away in an old jewelry box - taken out every so often, only when the thought of it crosses your mind.

Thoughts are easy to keep at bay. Memories not so much.

Haven't read TaeNy in a while. This fic reminds me of why I like them~~

[astrantiapetals]

Thank you so much!! I hope it wasn't too much of a shock, I don't necessarily want people to be blindsided lol =P I'm so humbled that you even picked out lines you really enjoyed, it makes me feel nice that you took the time to do that, thank you.

Thanks for stopping by to read! =))

[astrantiapetals]

Hi!! Yeah it's angsty lol but in all fairness, I see a lot of Taeny fluff floating around and I can only take so much, you know? Had to write something up to compensate lol. I'm glad you enjoyed it regardless =)) that particular line was inspired by a first encounter with now one of my closet friends; she's very good at keeping things light and comfortable (and people are hard fo me sometimes, so it's much appreciated).

Anyway, thank you for dropping by and taking a read! =DD
