Starkling in the Skye

by The Hope Lions

Sequel to Starkling and Agent Starkling. After Mary Sue Poots became Daisy Stark, she had it all:her father, her boyfriend, her job. Now she has nothing but a month of wiped memories, and an aching hole nothing seems to fill. Then comes project Centipede, and the revelation that Coulson is still alive, and maybe, just maybe, the Starkling can find her corner of the sky.

34. Author's Note

Thank you so much to everyone who has read this megalith of a series. It has been both fun and tedious to write at times, but whenever I looked at how many people were reading, or got a new review, I remembered that I write fanfiction not just for myself, but for those who get enjoyment out of it. So thank you if any moment of any of the three Starkling fics made you smile. (Or cry. Angry reviews make me happier than happy reviews.) Thank you if you stuck with me after the year long hiatus as I got distracted by other fandoms. Just thank you.

As far as I know, this series is over. I may return to it. I have a habit of doing that. Maybe I'll write a one-shot, or maybe I'll write another novel-length fic. I really don't know. Just don't plan on finding another Starkling fic. If I write one and you find it I hope you'll read, but don't place bets on it. I have no plans for writing more.

"How can you do that to us Hope when there is so much left untold? What about Age of Ultron? Or Civil War? What will happen when Daisy meets her mom? Will she end up with Lincoln? Will Ward stay 'good'? You can't just end it there."

Unfortunately, I must. Until the Marvel Cinematic Universe is completely finished. Until there are no more movies or shows being made, there will always be new questions that could be explored in this fic. I physically cannot devote the rest of my life to writing this series. Besides, so much has been changed that none of those things would happen. Tony is not going to make Ultron because Wanda isn't going to get into his head. There will be no Civil War because there was no Battle of Sokovia. Tony would be a lot more understanding to Bucky now that he's seen Daisy under Hydra brainwashing. Everything is different now. So if someone wanted to write another fic exploring these differences going forward, they're welcome to, but I simply cannot be the one to do it. I have other projects, both original and fanfiction wise, that I need to work on. I cannot write every moment of Daisy Stark's life up until her death (Because I imagine her having a long and fruitful life).

But never forget that I love you guys, and the response this fic has earned has been beyond wonderful. Thank you all for your time, and I hope you enjoyed.
