"What are we doing here?" Anna blinks at the continued reality around her. It's dark and lacking in detail and utterly half assed. "I thought our story was done?" She looks at the conspicuously absent fourth wall. "Yo, author person. I thought this story was done?"
"Don't address the author, darling," Elsa piers and peers around to look at her little human. "Remember, the author had plans for another two arcs?"
"Nebulous plans," Anna grumbles. "Does this look like a new arc?"
"No," Elsa rumbles. "It does not. I think it's an announcement. Humans like their announcements."
"An announcement?" Anna blinks. It's a very draconic expression. "For what?"
There's a noise like a thousand thunderstorms because the author is an over dramatic idiot. A banner unfurles from the sheer nothingness that is the ceiling. It says "You're a real book now. Congratulations!"
"A real book?" Anna asks. She can feel her name changing which is a feeling utterly impossible to describe to anyone who has not had their name changed by an author. "Is that a Pinocchio reference?"
"A shitty Pinocchio reference," the dragon grumbles. The two women seem unaware that it wasn't intended as a reference to anything, much less Pinocchio.
Someone whispers into their ears. "Oh," Anna says. "The author means that our names were changed, and our story was published."
"It was edited heavily too," Elsa says. It's hard to tell what emotion might be behind her armored face. "Apparently it wasn't good enough as it was."
"We get a beach party?" A slow smile comes over her. "I like the beach."
"I'm not so sure," Elsa says. "There's water at beaches. What if it puts out my fire?"
"I don't think that's a thing," Anna frowns a little. The author confirms that it isn't a thing.
AN: this site doesn't allow chapters that are only announcements, and I thought the best way to let all of my wonderful followers know was by giving them all a new chapter notification. Sorry… anyway, this was my solution. What I meant to say was this:
This story has now been heavily edited, the names have all been changed, and it is now available for purchase as a real book. A few new chapters have also been added in part as an incentive for you all to spend the $3 for my book, in part because I kindof wanted to include them but didn't originally. I will leave this story posted on this site because I would feel bad for taking it away from you all. Anyway, if you want to support this story, it can be found on Amazon under the name "My Girlfriend is a Dragon."
