I've actually thought about it for a long time. I've been trying to get some idea on how to end this and how to transition it between games, and where it goes from there, but it was all loose ideas that didn't want to get strung together. That and everything became so convoluted, I didn't want to finish it like that. I was going to put Shouyou on a bus for a bit, but I knew I'd have to get her to be Transcode 006 (right after Ox Fire), and there's no way she'd recover with the mess of a personality and history she had. That and I realized she was a hipster lol.

I actually decided in the middle of writing the previous chapter. However, by the time I made the decision, I already wrote the Misora-Tsukasa scenes, which I actually liked. While I'd rather not mention the possibility of romance (Dude, they're like, eleven), it was so interesting to explore their interaction as fellow orphans and mutual friends of Subaru.

I'd like to do more character relationship explorations in the future, but this story was becoming so bogged down by everything else. I might rewrite it, but that's a big might.

If there are any questions left about what I'm leaving behind, ask and you shall receive.

I'm leaving this for adoption IF and ONLY IF you follow some strict guidelines.

1. PM me first. I'd love to see your plans and speculations for this! I will even beta read for you!

2. Do NOT make definitive pairings. If you make the story Subaru/Misora, Subaru/Luna, Misora/Luna, Tsukasa/Subaru, etc., I will find where you live and punch you. Just kidding about the punching part, but I will be very very angry that it will feel like I punched you. You can flirt with the pairings like what I did with Misora and Tsukasa in chapter 6, but do NOT make it definitive.

3. Since you can't make definitive pairings, you must absolutely not bash the other character. I don't care if you can't write out your strange Subaru/Misora sex fantasy (DUDE THEY'RE ELEVEN), I DON'T want to see my baby get mixed up with your immature Luna bashing, nor do I want to see you Subaru/Luna fans bash Misora. Play the games for once, those girls get along well!

4. You don't have to use all of my OCs. I prefer it if you didn't actually. I enjoy seeing other people's OCs, but if you must use them, I'll give you some verbal diarrhea descriptions about their pasts, personalities, hobbies, etc. The only exceptions to this one are Mimi, NAOMI, and Mira Fairy (for those of you who lurk on my DA, you strange, strange children). Please don't touch them at all.

With that, I'm sorry to all I've disappointed by abandoning this fic. You special little stars make me happy that you've given me the time of day to read this. Thank you for reading guys!
