Dear Everyone:

As of now, Experimental-- and all my other fanfiction-- is on hiatus.

This doesn't mean I'm dissapearing from FanFiction.net. I'll still be puttering about, and I'm certainly going to post a few one-shots here and there, but I have an awful case of Writer's Block. My muses have gone off the radar-- even Jo has been quiet!-- and I rarely have any time to write, even when they do drop in. The next chapter, What Does He Care, has exactly the title segment, the place setting, and nothing more. And I'm not having a problem with where the story is going, it's just that the GOOD stuff doesn't happen until later. I'm still in set up... And I can't WRITE set-up for the LIFE of me. Not when it's boring, let's-go-off-and-kill-heartless stuff. I have so many plans, and no graceful way to get to them...

Aside from the Dreaded Block, Kami-sama has decreed that my life will suck. I'm in a slump in Real Life, stressed out, depressed, and generally feeling like Neko on a bad day, with less reason. *Sighs* Meh...

I'm going to be working, but I probably won't post again untill I have at least a few chapters written. And then I'll post once-weekly for a while, and then I'll go back to my bi-to-tri-to-quadweekly scedule, hopefully staying the the bi-to-tri area.

What a sucky way to celebrate Experimental's birthday, ne? ~_~

Now, to actually put content into this so the Powers That Be don't get annoyed...

~~~ Alana

The sun goes down

I feel the light betray me

There's nothing left for me

I wish I could die

All I've got left

Is a darkness in my heart

Nothing but the void

Striking out for fun

An evil behind my mind

The something I don't want to see

There's just something not right with me

And it's showing on the outside

Don't you see it?

He rapes what he wants

Rips it apart with the merest touch

And he's there inside of me

He's the Nephil on my shoulder

But there's no Seraph to match

None to hold him inside

None to hold him back

And when the dark betrays me

I know the sun goes out

Ripped to shreds by blackness

There's nothing all around

I have a little secret-

A little problem, too

The Nephil wants to see me dead-

I think I will ask you

When the light betrays you,

You turn to a thing that's true

When the dark will hate you,

What else can you do?
