Summary
I will be trying to actually complete whumptober this year‼️❗️‼️❗️
a lot of these will be posted unfinished :,3 i'll try to revisit some of them after october, though:D
if you couldn't tell by the title of the series, ALL of the fics this month are going to be wtnv. it is like my very big special interest.
i also give them (mostly cecil and kevin) weird pronouns, although it's not consistent throughout. if you'd like to see my master list it can be found either here on google docs or here on elipsus! in the notes of each individual fic i do say what pronouns i used for each character so no one gets confused.
all the titles of the works are lyrics from this playlist! (it's in order as well!)
