A/N: Hi! I'm guessing you're here for Chapter 4. But no, sorry. But thanks to the people who reviewed, and of course, thanks to the people who read my story. I'm typing this in school, and I'm only typing this to make a point clear---just so nobody gets the wrong idea or whatnot. It's really for Orihime fans and the people who hate me for making her OOC in my fic, but you can read it for amusement, too, I guess.
It's about the whole Orihime issue.
I've posted about the whole "Orihime Being OOC" in my profile and in the beginning of Chapter 2. Yes, I do realize that she IS out of character. However, I clearly said that I have nothing against Orihime. I do not love her, but that doesn't mean I hate her. I think Orihime's pretty cool, she's alright. Same thing goes for Rukia. She's cool, whatever.
I've seen many fics where the author apparently hates a character, but makes them a protagonist in their fics, and I respect that. So how does me portraying Orihime the way I do in this fic make me an Orihime hater? Just because she's the supposedly "bitch" of this story, you think that I'm being totally biased towards Rukia and IchiRuki? That's awfully shallow, don't you think? What, I can't make a character OOC just to make my fic and the plot work?
If I was biased, then I wouldn't have made the pairing "UNDISCLOSED RukiIchiORi", I would've made it flat-out "IchiRuki", with Orihime as the "bitchy girl". Maybe how I portrayed Orihime in this fic is going too far, but that's just how it ended up. So I'm sorry to all you Orihime fans, but I didn't make her the way she is depicted because I hate her, honest.
I'm not a hardcore ichiRuki fan or IchiOri fan, either. I enjoy BOTH pairings, and I think that both girls have an equal chance with Ichigo. So trust me, I don't hate Orihime, it's just the way she will be sorta portrayed in this fic. So sorry, but this fic is only one out of thousands of other fics out there.
I mean, I'm only a rookie/beginner author with only one story that has only three chapters right now and only 300-something hits, so don't lose your temper. There are fics that have how Orihime is really portrayed, so don't lose it just because I make her an OOC in my fic. It's just me, I mean, who am I to say that Orihime is a total bitch? 'Cause I know she's not, and everyone else does, too.
There may be more people who don't like this story than people who actually DO like it, but that doesn't mean I'm deleting this story. I'm gonna finish this story for the people who actually do enjoy and really like this fic, and is interested in its progress, as well as my own in terms of writing. So for the people who do enjoy and like this fic, thank you, and the people who are Orihime fans, read this fic, and are tolerating Orihime's OOCness in this fic, sorry, and thank you.
I hope that cleared some things up, 'cause I really don't wanna cause problems between myself and any readers.
Next chapter will be up in a week, so check back in awhile, people :)
