I started a treat for one person, went down an unexpected rabbit hole with it, realized that what I'd written didn't fit with the original recipient's requests anymore, then found a different person whose requests were a slightly better fit and gifted it to them instead. Not my finest moment.

When I went to post my last treat to Madness last night, I almost posted it to someone else who'd requested that fandom. I actually put their name in and had previewed before I decided it fit the original recip's prompts better.

You say treating someone different wasn't your finest moment, but I don't see how there's a thing wrong it. You gave it to someone you thought might appreciate it more. Yay for them, yay for you!

ayrt

thanks coalie!! the new recip hasn’t said anything yet when they’ve always been an extremely prompt commenter before, so I’ve been working myself into knots worrying that I wrote this thing that I was excited about writing but maybe they weren’t excited to unexpectedly get. but I know I need to give it more time!
