A/N: Below are copies of a few text documents I found in the backup of a backup that I mentioned last chapter. As you can probably guess, I'm dropping this story and calling it completed with this quick summary. Anyone can adopt this story if they want, just let me know if you do. Most of my free time is spent on other projects and fandoms nowadays, so I figured this is the closest to closure on this story we'll get.

E/N: I wonder how well this will be received. I did have a much more thorough plan written at one point. Chapter names, chapter summaries, segments of chapters, etc. were all written down, but that was lost during a HDD failure. Oh well, happy reading!
