To any eyes that may come across this story which has been cruelly abandoned for four years:
I have decided to at least try and continue (and hopefully finish) this story!
I've had so many doubts about whether or not to continue/finish this fic... like if my style would be consistent with 4 years ago, if the characters would seem the same... I went back and edited some parts of the older chapters, or a lot, tweaking a few words... or cuz some of the descriptions were just so horribly OOC to me. And I almost changed the Michelle Branch songs to songs that I'm more currently in love with… but I decided to leave them as a memory and salute to the past. In fact, the title change I decided that I wanted turned out to be in reference to a Michelle Branch song. So all the changes are small descriptions or a specific example, when I think Draco is being so OOC that I cringe about ever writing it.
I guess I'm writing this because I want to have the accomplishment of having written a relatively long HP fic. I'm going to college this fall, so I guess I'm in the mood for trying not to leave things unfinished... and combined with the 7th book having come out this summer (AHHH) and after rereading Cassandra Claire's Draco trilogy, I got the feverish inspiration to finish this story! After reading it, I fell in love with my AU again... I also feel bad because I didn't finish this story four years ago when people were reading it... and everyone hates reading a story, esp. a long one, and then the author never finishes it. So four years later... I'm going to try my hardest to finish it.
I've written out a loose plot for the rest so I hope to have the next chapter out soon.
