Love it when the normies get me ✊🏾

It’s recently come up in conversation a few times that I write Mario fanfic; I’ve started elaborating to say that I write fics where Mario’s nonverbal because hardly anyone else writes him as such. And the shock and incredulity I get about the idea of people out there writing Mario as someone who talks waters my crops and hydrates my soul, tbh.

"But [not talking]'s like his whole THING!" they say.
"I KNOW!" I reply. And then I say that the recent movie emboldened the people who write him like that 🤭 It's such a fun and delightful way to be completely validated~

(that reminds me tho I need to update my not-verbal Mario collection! I think we're just above 80 fics in it now, which is pretty cool)
