The Slip Slack Oops of a Bored Ilya Rozanov

by ViceVirsaSabled

Summary

Ilya gets bored and discovers Slack, which he decides to use to create an anonymous groupchat for the Queer memebers of the MLH.

Chapter 1: Oops, I (Didn't) Misclick

Chapter Notes

Here we go again

This shit took literally 5.5 hours to code because it fought me SO MUCH but whatever

This is both to make up for missed updates, and because i love these kinds of fics and discovered slack code work for anonymity

Chapter End Notes

I have another chapter like 8/9ths the way done so if yall want another one, i am still undecided on whether to hold it for next update or today. What do yall want?

Also!
I have hidden another secret sort of in here
Yall should guess because its funny and might give me more ideas.
I will maybe give a hint next chapter

Additionally, there actually is a pattern to how shane types, and why, as well as a reason to how the headings of text chains are if anybody cares to know.

Chapter 4: Put Your Crew in a New Blue Tutu

Chapter Notes

And i love shane in this chap
Kinda said i didnt get to write more alice and sarah cause i love them but still
