This chapter is a place holder...at one point I might replace it with a lengthly Prologue to Vincents Adler story, featuring Vincent's father, Wagner and the music box, but I think I will need a long time to figure this out and the hiatus of White Collar is now, so I'll post the main story now. And I have some other gimmicks to shorten the hiatus.

1. I have begun working on a rec list I intend to update every tuesday until the hiatus is over. You can find it at my LJ under: swanpride dot livejournal dot com

2. I have also written a couple of metas and posted it there, and I intend to add some more if people are interested.

3. Well, this isn't really my work, but Simone Lyon hosts the first White Collar fanfiction award. Today is the last chance to nominate stories. I hope there will be a lot of participation when the voting begins, to make it a success. You can find all the information about it here:.net/s/6786721/1/White_Collar_FanFiction_Awards

So, and now onto the story...updates will be irregular this time around, but since we basically know how the story of Vincent Adler ends, I think you will able to bear some waiting time inbetween the updates;-)
