A/N: Chap 51, Special chapter. So... yeah, all of these conversations are a way to celebrate the 50th chap of Nibelheim (I didn't know what was going to happen in this one until oodball167 sent it to me... Honest.)

Cloud: "... LTS, I'm really sorry... Can you forgive me?"

LTS: *smile* "Of course. I'm sorry, too... I shouldn't have snapped." *hugs Cloud*

Cloud: *hugs back* "At peace?"

LTS: *nods* "Yeah..."

Cloud: "Okay." *Cloud-like smile* "Here..." *gives LTS a box*

LTS: "What's this?"

Cloud: "A gift."

LTS: *opens the box* "A tape recorder..."

Cloud: "Disclaimer: LTS doesn't own anything. Just push 'play'."

LTS: "Okay..." *LTS pushes 'play' on the tape recorder*


Tape Recorder:

Fragmentsofmemories16: Awesome work LadyTeefStrife! You are very dedicated to your stories, and it's obvious that you put a lot of heart into them. You come up with witty and entertaining A/N's as well. Here's a lovely rose ' - - ' - - for such a lovely writer (and don't worry - it's not pink). We readers truly appreciate all your efforts, so here's a "Thank you" for all you've done. :)

FinalFantasyFreak92: I love your writing and hope you continue to write. Even when this story is over. (hopefully that won't be soon though) Keep Writing!!! JoY

A Morning Star: Thank you so much for writing your stories; I know that a lot of time goes into them, a LOT of time, and it's pretty daunting when most people have critical eyes. But I'd like to thank you for keeping me entertained in the late hours of the night and letting me escape into a ready made world, even if it's at the expense of my microbiology class at seven in the morning! =[" -Amorningstarr

Leah Conner: Amazing story. A perfect combination of compassion and witty humor. It has deep characters with equally deep relationships intertwined to creat a masterpiece. They slowly learn that trust can conquer fear and love can heal the past. Each character has charisma and heart that could only be created by an author with just as much heart as they do.

Amaranthos: I'm absolutely loving the story. It's crazy, wild, unexpected, there's romance and angels popping out. Lol. All in all, this is an incredible story. A definite must read if you want to know about the different acting characters and great pairings. Great fic, i love it especially because of Tifa and Cloud. As you would say LTS, cloti is happiness - CIH.

6jrz422: I'd just like to congratulate you on your 50th chapter, it shows how dedicated you are to this story. I'm sure everyone is glad that NLiN is still going strong with quick updates and an engaging plot. I'd just like to extend my beta'ing services to whatever else you'd like beta'd. I look forward to reading more about NLiN as well as any other stories you feel like sending my way.

PeAceLovEr 12: Greetings LTS! Normal Life In Nibelheim rocks! Fast update, cool storyline and hilarious conversations!! You're a very great writer and a very great person, I might don't know you but I DO know you're a nice person from inside and outside (I learn that from our PM conversations). Hope you continue your stories and don't stop updating 'till its over! More to come and Good Luck! PeAceLovEr 12

oodball167: You are a great writer, with an amount of imagination, talent, and intuition. Able to turn what could have been an usual high school fic into something much more complex and adult. It's admirable. So, keep up with your amazing energy, your good job and your crazy ideas. Yours, oodball167.

Lauresh / Raptured Heart / Srtª Caroline / sage / Gonkinator / Syarrah . indonesia / SymphonyOfDestruction / iceQueen02 / City of Dis / Draconic / absolutedisaster13 / Randomzzz: Please, don't stop to do such a wonderful work!

*the tape recorder stops*


Cloud: "R&R and thanks for reading... Even if this wasn't a normal chapter." *looks at LTS* "Are you okay?"

LTS: *sniff* "… No..." *sniff*

Cloud: "I- I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you cry! I'm really so-" *LTS hugs him and drags him to the reviewers room*

LTS: *crying* "I LOVE YOU ALL!!"

Everyone: "Come here!" *massive group hug*

CIH!! 14/04/2010 I... I wasn't expecting that. Guys... all of you are sooo awesome... I cried when I read it the first time, and my eyes still water every time I read it. I... I love you all. I can't believe this! But before I start crying again, I want to give special thanks to 6jrz422 for being such a wonderful beta-reader. I couldn't be doing this without his help. And I want to thank oodball167 and PeaceLovEr 12 too for plotting this behind my back Xp Seriously though, thank you, to the both of you. I don't know what to say... This... This is just incredible.

This story started in my brain as a normal high school fic, thanks to an AWESOME idea Amaranthos sent to me when I asked for requests. From there, I twisted the plot to no end (I hope you aren't mad at me for that, Amaranthos) and it came out with Tifa sprouting wings, being hated, suffering child abuse, and drinking blood. And that is only her part of the story! I really thought that I was crazy when I decided to start this one, but I decided to keep at it because it was important to me. Then, the first reviews arrived and I couldn't believe that someone actually liked it! Nibelheim. My little baby. My special fic. The most heart-made fic that I'm writing, and probably that I'll ever write. I can't believe it.

And then, the A/N of chapter 46 went crazy and ended up with me snapping at Cloud. And when I asked for help, oodball and PeAceLovEr accepted without a second thought. They helped me sort this thing out and even prepared all of this without me being aware of it! And then all of you guys, all the reviewers... You all have my back too, huh? ;) I love you all. Hell, if I could, I would give each and everyone of you a hug so tight you couldn't breathe! X3

Well, I think I'll quit my rambling... I'm sure I'm boring you all with this. Besides, this isn't even a chapter. (Some people must be hating me right now for only updating with an A/N... Well, I have my Desert Eagle to fight against the flames! XD If I've survived in Koudelka's world, I can do this.) … Yeah, I'll shut up now.
