EDIT: ALL 20 SPOTS FOR THE FICLETS HAVE BEEN CLAIMED! Check in at the last chapter when it comes, and maybe you'll have another chance ;) Sorry for those of who who missed the chance, but definitely keep your eyes peeled, since I might do this again!
Okay, no, this isn't me writing to say I'm discontinuing the story. I would NEVER do that. I swear on my freaking religion that I won't, ever.
What I did come here to write is a deeply, heart-felt apology to you all who have reviewed even though I haven't updated in, like, forever. And a half. So I'm so sorry, you guys.
However, I do have some serious writers block concerning this story. So, I decided that, instead of sitting around waiting for my muse to get their ass in gear again, I'd do something that might possibly ease my creative mind back into the flow so I can get that next chapter to you guys, finally!
So I'm going to write gift ficlets. If you have a scenario you want to see, be it a pairing, or a situation, or something in the future, or the past, in THIS fic(I'm sure there are a lot of you, since Viper isn't paired with anyone in this story and never will be), then I will write a oneshot of it for you as a gift(god knows you readers deserve it, good lord, you're all so lovely. I love you.) If you choose a pairing, it can be slash, het. I'll even give writing Viper in one of the other world's he's been to a shot, and you can pick the other fandom(obviously).
So there's that. The first 20 people to PM me and claim their gift ficlet, will actually get a gift ficlet. After that, the slots are closed. And once those people 20 get their gifts, I'll sit down for a day of just me, my computer, and the open Google doc titled "AitDBT incomplete chapter." Just that, no other tabs, nothing.
Also, keep your eyes peeled on the next update, because I might hand out some more gift ficlets. I just feel horribly bad for leaving you all in the dark for so long and giving you guys nothing for sticking around. And this might seriously help me get rid of my writers block, so let's give it a shot!
Thank you for you saintly patience with me, you guys. It honestly very appreciated. Really. I adore you guys.
With love,
~Skye
