First things first. If you don't like slow, agonizing tension, then this story isn't for you. I love smut as much as anyone, but let's earn it every now and then, shall we? Plot first. Fear not, however, as everything that is written is entirely integral to said plot and does, in fact, have a point. I promise it will be worth it. I don't do author's notes that pertain to the specific goings-on of a chapter/storyline because I don't find it conducive to the story if I need to explain things before and/or after every part. If I include a note, it will only be generally related, so don't expect much from or of them. If something seems vague or slightly confusing, it's intentional; you will find out everything you need to know. I have a(possibly annoying?) tendency to write in photographs, in as much as: I work in moments. I like dialogue and nuances and everything and nothing happening. At times, you may find you're in the character's heads a lot, and I know that can be boring, but you need to know them before you can care about them, so be patient. Rest assured, good things come to those who wait. No, seriously, they do. If you feel like I'm dragging you along, find solace in the fact that I am only being dragged along with you. Every word I've written has been exhausting, carefully placed to get us where we want to be. That said, if you're bothering to read any of what I've written so far, one of my kidneys has your name on it. And if you've gone as far as bothering to review, then you're too good for my kidney.

I only need to get this story out of my system, thus, it is likely the only fan fiction I will ever write. I will read every review and will be responding to you, so be encouraged to tell me what you think.
