  Friendship Hi everyone! I'm sorry for the inactivity things have been crazy with Christmas stuff, and talking to my new friend. Which is exactly why I'm doing this post actually. I'm here to talk about the friends I've made through my fanpage. I never thought I would make such amazing friends again, it is such a great thing. When you're socially awkward making friends can be difficult, you constantly overthink everything about new people. Strangers scare me, I've struggled with this since I was 4 years old. But my new friends are very understanding and they don't pressure me at all, it's very comforting. I've started taking medication for it, because my parents and doctor thought it would be beneficial to me. I don't know how it will work long term, but I'm not scared to take it anymore. Anyway back to my friends, if it hadn't been for our shared love of Chris I don't think I ever would have met them. So tonight I want to say a big

  The Pet Xanthous and Elrik thought they had everything they could ever want. They had each other, great friends, a wonderful little girl, and jobs that are so fulfilling. But what if they added one thing that could make their lives just a little bit better than they already were? It was a beautiful day in the fairy kingdom, the sun was shining, not a cloud in the sky. The temperature was warm but comfortable, and people were out enjoying some outside activities. Further down the way, husbands Xanthous and Elrik were in the park with their daughter Cassandra. They were watching her swing on the swing set, seeing how high she could go. "It's such a beautiful day, it's nice to get some fresh air and have a little fun." Xanthous said still watching their daughter intently. "it certainly is, but Xan you need to relax a little bit. You're watching Cass like a hawk, she's fine." Elrik said to his husband trying to get him to calm down. "I know, I'

The Kid Is Sick   This is after Xanthous and Elrik were married. They adopted a little girl from one of the village orphanages in the kingdoms. They were so happy to have a child of their own to love and care for.  It was a beautiful summer morning in the Hayfield-Elderwood household. Xanthous and Elrik were sound asleep in each others arms, when they heard a distressing sound. "Daddy!" It was their little girl Cassandra, crying out for one of them. "Cass is calling you, Xan." Elrik said in a sleepy voice. "Okay, I 'll get up and check on her." Xanthous said also still sleepy. "Daddy!" "I'm coming princess." Xanthous said as he made his way to her room. When he got there, he realized what was causing his little girl's distress. Cassandra was crying and holding her stomach seemingly in pain. Xanthous walked toward her with his arms outstretched, "oh princess come here." Xanthous said scooping his daughter in his arm

  The Wedding It was the morning of the big day! Xanthous and Elrik were busy getting the last minute details done for the wedding, then later that day they were going to be husbands! "I can't believe in just a few hours we're gonna be husbands!" Xanthous shouted hugging his fiance tight. "I know, I'm so happy, there's no one else I'd rather be marrying." Elrik said kissing Xanthous on the cheek. They went out to the garden to check on the preparations, and everything looked beautiful! There was red roses leading up tp the alter, fireflies were hovering over the podium, gorgeous vines with various flowers woven through them were wrapped around the chairs, and for the boys special requests some of the fire demons came up to see this moment. They had a special section away from the guests so they didn't get burned, that was Xanthous's request, and for Elrik the colours for the theme was black and white as an homage to his kingdom. "wow

  The Future It was a beautiful morning in the fairy kingdom. Fairies in all shapes, sizes, gender, and ethnicity were flying around the gorgeous picturesque landscape. Unicorns were drinking from the pond near the palace, griffins were out catching their breakfast, and the leaders of the fairies are still sleeping getting a few more hours in before their days start. Xanthous Hayfield and his fiance Elrik were snuggled up together in their bed, sleeping the morning away. The proposal was beautiful, very fairy tale like. As dawn was breaking Xanthous thought back to the day of the proposal, he had a huge smile as he remembered everything. Flashback to the proposal Xanthous and Elrik were taking a walk around the fairy palace grounds, they moved their after Xanthous realized he belonged home with his friends. He did promise to come back and visit his fire demon subjects. Xanthous had never been happier, he had the boy of his dreams, a loving family, and his purpose was very remarkable he

  At The Beach It was a beautiful day in the underground kingdom of the fire demons. Xanthous and Elrik were making their rounds around the castle, making sure things are in order. "hey do you want to maybe get away for awhile?" Xanthous asked Elrik looking him the eye. "sure that sounds great!" He said kissing Xanthous's cheek. "how about we go to the beach?" Xanthous suggested. "that sounds perfect." Elrik said with a little smile. The boys packed up their things to take with them to the beach, and got inside the carriage. When they arrived at the beach Xanthous ran down to the water, and jumped into the ocean! Elrik went running after him, and yelled "Xan you don't even have your trunks on!" Xanthous just laughed at him then ducked under the water, and splashed Elrik in the face with water. "hey! okay that's it I'm coming in!" Elrik kicked his shoes off, and waded out into the ocean. The boys took turns spla

  Hospital Bells It was a crisp December morning. Xanthous and Elrik were all snuggled up in bed together, just relaxing in the warmth before they have to get up and start the day. As dawn was breaking, Xanthous slowly opened his eyes, and looked down at his sleeping boyfriend. Elrik had his head on Xanthous's chest, sleeping away oblivious to Xanthous watching him. "he's so cute when he's sleeping." Xanthous thought as he softly stroked Elrik's hair. "How did I get to be so lucky?" He thought again, smiling down at the boy he loves. When Elrik finally awoke, he saw Xanthous staring at him and smiled warmly. "Hey beautiful, good morning." Elrik said sitting up. "Good morning babe, did you sleep well?" "yes, thank you. You're really warm." Xanthous chuckled at that, and pulled Elrik closer to him. "well yeah, I have fire powers of course I'm warm." Xanthous replied with a cheeky grin on his face. "h

  Nightmare Elrik was awoken to a horrible sound in the middle of the night. He was sleeping in the castle he lived in with Xanthous when he became king of the demons. The sound was very concerning so Elrik started wandering around looking for the source of the sound. When he got to Xanthous's room, that's when the sound was really loud. Feeling panicked Elrik opened the door and quietly stepped inside the room. When he approached Xanthous's bed, he realized the sound was coming from him. He turned on the lamp, and saw Xanthous thrashing about in his sleep. But worst of all Xanthous crying and screaming, clearly caught in the throws of a horrible nightmare. Elrik felt his heart break for him, and calmly tried to wake him up. "Xan? It's me Elrik, please wake up. You're okay, it's alright I'm here." Elrik said as he gently shook Xanthous. He eventually jolted awake and was breathing heavily, then Xanthous started sobbing. Elrik brought him into his a

  Sick Day Saturday mornings were supposed to be bliss. No work, no school, nothing but relaxation and fun. Unfortunately that wasn't the case for Elrik. When he woke up that morning, he didn't feel like himself at all. His head hurt, he had chills, and his stomach was cramping painfully. Xanthous sensed something was wrong when he felt the bed shift. Elrik was sleeping next to Xanthous in his bed because he has nightmares, but whenever Elrik holds him after he feels better. "babe, what's wrong?" Xanthous asked his boyfriend who looked really pale, and flushed.  "I don't feel good." he said as he hunched over with his arms wrapped around his stomach. Suddenly Elrik felt really nauseous and he bolted toward the bathroom to be sick. Xanthous was very concerned and went in after him, as he pushed open the door he saw his poor boyfriend huddled on the floor by the toilet. "oh baby, it's okay I'm here." Xanthous said as he brushed Elrik&

Fanfiction Hey everybody! Today I'm writing a little piece of fanfiction. This is my take on what Xanthous and Elrik's first date would look like. Hope you enjoy! After having spent a week down in the earth's core with the fire demons, Xanthous was ready to head back into the world. Elrik was amazing at helping him with this whole king thing, and was very thankful to have have him in his life. But having been down there awhile Xanthous wanted to see daylight again, and treat Elrik so something nice. While on a break from his royal duties, Xanthous and Elrik went for a walk around the castle. Xanthous pulls Elrik aside and looks him right in the eyes. "Elrik there's something I want to ask you." He said taking Elrik's hand in his. "what is it Xan?" Elrik asked calling him by his nickname that he gave him. "would you like to go on a date with me? We haven't actually been on a real date yet, and I wanted to show how much I care about you, s

  R a i n b o w s Today on Fangirl Confessions I will be talking about another thing I am a fan of . Today's topic is rainbows! I have always loved rainbows, ever since I was little rainbows have just been something I enjoyed . I love what they represent, I love how colourful they are, I feel very at piece when I see one outside. For me rainbows are more than just reflections of light, they represent love, acceptance, a sense of feeling like everything's going to be okay. Rainbows are around my room, I own a few pieces of rainbow clothing, there's a phrase over my bed that says "there has always been a rainbow hanging over your head." So it's safe to say I love rainbows a lot haha!  I know this post is short today, but that's really all I can say about rainbows! I hope you enjoyed learning about my love for rainbows, and think ab

  Social Anxiety  I know this blog is supposed to be fan stuff, but I want to talk about what I go through mentally because it's important to talk about. I have experienced this since I was 4 years old, but everyone just thought I was a shy kid. What they didn't know was that it's so much more than just being shy, social anxiety is a real thing. When I'm in a new situation with strangers, I get really nervous. My palms sweat, I can't speak, I can't make eye contact, my heart races like crazy, and I start breathing heavily. Which is why I prefer to stay home, or if I do go anywhere one of parents has to go with me. Talking to people has always been hard for me, for the longest time I couldn't answer people's questions. I will answer people now if they ask me something, but I can't keep up conversations. It's very easy to talk to people online then it is for me to talk to people in person, but even before now I couldn't respond to people online

  Chris! Today's topic is all about my Idol! When I say he's the sweetest human being on the planet I mean it! Chris does so much for people without even realizing it! I mean he keeps fan art from people and has it pretty all over his house, and talks about it when he has company! He saves lives all the time, he's such a comfort for people, and he makes me really happy! Chris came into my life during a time where I really needed to feel like I wasn't alone, because I was alone so much in high school. Making friends was hard for me because of my social anxiety, I felt so invisible. There were days when I go into the bathroom to get away from everything for awhile, that was the only place where I felt safe mentally. Music was my only friend, I was the loner kid who always had my headphones on. I wished I had a friend like Chris in high school, he's so amazing! When he came into my life it was the best thing ever! I didn't feel so alone, and I felt seen. Chris is t

  Merchandise Today on Fangirl Confessions, I will be discussing merchandise from your fandom! This is anything related to your fandom in the form of stuff. For example I have Chris's books, but I also have custom merchandise around my room. I have a poster which was custom made, I have pics from the internet that I printed off and put into frames, I even decorated the outside of my door with pics of Chris. Different fandoms though have different forms of merchandise, for bands and singers they have clothing with their name and logo on them. For franchises they have characters as stuffed animals or games, or also clothing as well. And there's also stuff you can make yourself, like my scrapbooks those and Chris's books are the most precious things in the world to me. I don't share my scrapbooks online because they are too personal to share, but I love them just the same. Merchandise is also a really great way to show your support for you fandom, by purchasing Chris's

  Idols Hi people! welcome back to Fangirl confessions! Today's topic is about Idols! This is something very near and dear to my heart, having an Idol is so special! Typically Idols are celebrities in a fandom, but they can be anyone who's living or dead. Or a character from a tv series, book series, movie or other things related to a fandom! For me my Idol is in fact a celebrity, he's Chris Colfer! The guy I've been talking about since I started this blog, and why I started doing it! Before I go any further I'd like to give you all some information on Chris. Let's start with his background, Chris grew up in a small town in California called Clovis. He lived there with his mom, dad, and younger sister Hannah. Hannah has epilepsy, and a lot of the time she was in the hospital. Chris was also in the hospital quite a bit as a child, and has a scar on his neck from a lymph node surgery he had. (I also have a thing for it, I love it so much!) Growing up in a small co

  Shipping/OTP Hello everyone! Welcome back to Fangirl Confessions! Today’s blog is about shipping and OTPs in your fandom! Our first topic is about shipping, this is a part of a fandom that is the most enthusiastic. Let me give you a little background on what shipping means, shipping is when there’s two people in your fandom who you want to be together. But there is a difference between good shipping and toxic shipping. Good shipping is when you love the relationship more than anything, and are also respectful of it. For example I love Xanthous and Elrik from A Tale of Sorcery, which my angel Chris wrote and is amazing! Xanthous and Elrik’s relationship is so cute and sweet! The fact that they are fictional people is also a major factor in this good shipping topic. Spoiler alert for people who haven’t read this book yet. Now we move on from good shipping to toxic shipping. This unfortunately happens in the fandom I’m in, this kind of shipping is very hurtful to the relationships that

  How To Be A Fangirl/Fanboy Hi everybody! Today's post is all about what it's like to be a fangirl/fanboy, or a person who loves being a fan of something! Welcome to fangirling 101! This is how it all works, first of all everyone is a fan of something. It doesn't have to be a tv show or a movie, or book series, or a celebrity. People can be fans of everything, and anything. For example people who love shoes, if a new pair of shoes comes out they just have to have it! Well that means they are huge fans of shoes. For me personally being a fangirl is about more than just being obsessive, or crazy. It's about loving your Idol/fandom unconditionally. Being apart of Chris Colfer's fandom is so amazing! Not only is he himself a wonderful person, but the fandom as a whole is so nice and sweet! Well for the most part anyway, there's still a few people who don't seem to get the message. But I'll tell you about that group of people on another post.  My experience

  Being A Fangirl Hi my name is Grace Guitar. (yes that is actually my last name) I live in Ontario Canada, with my mom, dad, and younger brother. I also have a dog, and chickens which we get eggs from everyday. I have social anxiety, I love to dance, sing, read, write, listen to music, and post on my fanpage on Facebook. I love chatting with my online friends as well. Today's blog is all about being a fangirl! This is an area I have a lot of experience in, as I have been in many fandoms throughout my life. My first fandoms were Dora the explorer and the Disney princesses, they were my whole world when I was little. That's how it all started, I've been obsessive since I was five! What I would like to talk about now is the fandom I joined back in 2016. This is kind of a sore subject for me, this fandom broke my heart and it was really hard to take. But at the same time I never would have joined the fandom I'm in now!  Let me take you back to the beginning. It all started
