Hello reader.

Unfortunately this isn't a new chapter announcement, and I hate reading these myself so I apologise sincerely for any disappointment arising from this.

You'll have noticed that neither of my active stories has been updated for a while (and has it really been that long?!). Since I started writing these I've read a huge variety of other stories and have gone through a list of improvements I'd want to make in terms of adjusting original stories etc. I do intend to finish these stories (one day) but they need reworking pretty much from the ground up.

I'll leave the existing chapters up until I've established new versions, at which point those will take over from these.

The new versions will be significantly different. I intend to spend a lot more time establishing characters, slow down plots to allow for greater development and integration where it's needed and completely rework character interactions. Most notably both stories will be getting a complete plot rework from the ground up with a much more solid outline against which I can assess as each chapter is written. Hopefully this will lead to more readable chapters and more natural feeling OOC-ness where I am taking existing characters and reworking them.

So once again my apologies.
