Flowers from 1970 

A (very sad) fanfiction based around the ship 'DreamNotFound', a popular pairing between Minecraft YouTubers/Twitch Streamers Dream and GeorgeNotFound. The story consists of a tale about George discovering the fact that he can communicate with Dream, a boy who lived in his house 50 years before, via an old rotary telephone. With beautiful writing and a tragic ending, 'Flowers from 1970' has received much praise from the dsmp fandom, along with over 6 million reads. The story originates from ao3, where the author ,"astronimica", first uploaded it. Due to popular demand, (and requests from fans who were interested in reading the story, but didn't feel like making an ao3 account), Astro reuploaded the story on Wattpad as well. A sequel, titled 'Unchained Melody' was also created, but has currently been taken down, due to its "need of editing" according to Astro, since they had accidently and unknowingly crossed some of the streamers' boundaries throughout the story. It's unclear when the sequel will be reposted.
"You said it yourself. Flowers from 1970 couldn't last that long."
