    I had to change this to the default layout because the font was obnoxious to read.

    This was an interesting idea, though it's one of those oneshots that just tell everything instead of showing it. That makes it less exciting and engaging, but I understand that it's just a oneshot. You also switch between past and present tense sometimes, and that makes the sentences a little awkward and disrupts your flow.

    "Setting dandelions on fire was my form of crying."

    I liked that sentence. I also liked the ending, how she burned all the other wishes that didn't come true, for everyone else. It did seem kind of ridiculous, though, that she took it so seriously.
