The stage is set: in a seemingly middle-class living room, a couch faces the audience. There is a door slightly in the background in the wall to the right of the sofa. A stairway extends up from a few yards directly behind the couch. To the left, an open arch-way is seen. Through this door, a familiar, blond-haired head pokes itself through. It is Mwu La Fllaga.

"Hey." He says, body soon following his head as he makes his way to and sits on the couch. "I bet you're wondering 'What happened to this story?' Personally, I'm wondering that myself. Believe me, I want to know who that guy is too. I mean, who is so important that he interrupts my 'private time' with my girl? Damn stalking bastard." He pauses. "Not me, of course, that…." He digs in the folds of the couch and pulls a script-like sheaf of paper and reads from it. "'…figure behind' me 'shadowed in the kitchen doorway.'" He throws the script over his shoulder nonchalantly. "He's already in the effing house! I want to know who this guy is!" He sighs. "You have the authoresses's…yeah, apologies for the long delay. You also have IMBSA's excuses." He digs into the couch again and pulls out a sheet of (surprisingly) frilly and girlish paper with the words: "From the desk of IMBSA" at the top in pink lettering. He once again begins reading. "'Ah, I am sorry minna-san, but this chapter seems to have gotten lost in the mail. As I've said countless times before, KAHBG has yet to get the much-awaited chapter to me. She also seems to be screening her calls and won't pick up when I call. Either that, or she really does have the Schedule from Hell that's jam-packed full of crap I can't even think about. But that's not the point! The point is that I am terribly, terribly, sorry about the wait and to tell you that we will be updating soon. Gomen nasai gomen nasai gomen nasai gomen nasai gomen nasai gomen nasai,' continues on down the page….And then her signature." He also tosses this aside. "So please don't make her take up permanent residence in her bomb shelter by lobbing hand grenades at her. If you must, direct the comments (and other such things, such as Howlers or punches or other actions that may cause her bodily/mental/spiritual harm) at KAHBG. That's all. Seeya!" He gives an energetic wave, gets up, and exits through the door he came in from.

IMBSA: Yes, yes, I know this is a paltry excuse, but it is the truth. But to be fair, don't place all the blame on my poor friend. I don't want her to get all pissy at me. We just wanted to give some assurance that we have not forgotten about this and that we don't mean to disappoint you. As Mwu kindly read, "Gomen nasai." And I know I made Mwu OOC. Ask me later if I care. Here are my replies to the reviews so we can at least have something done.

Yun Fei: Well, it seems that Neo is Mwu….Which totally blows this fic out of the water with a 12 gauge semiautomatic shotgun….Unfortunately, Mwu doesn't remember Murrue, so that'll be a problem….And I still have to figure out how Mwu survived in this story….

RisingGundam2004: Thanks for the encouragement! We try….

Bondfan: Thank you as well for your continued readership. I'm glad you thought the chapter was good.

Yami Tenshi Neko – Chan: We were aiming for that a bit.

The hero of time 2005: :ducks into bomb shelter.: Gomen nasai! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I really couldn't! I wanted to have a way to put the guy in that you knew right off the bat that he was someone to watch. That was my only option!

Dominus: Right on only one count. And I'm not gonna tell you which one. :p I love some good MwuxMurrue too. I've read your drabbles (Possibilities, right?) but I can't remember if I reviewed. Hm.

Dark Roxy: Thanks for the review!

Tempest Kiro: Why, yes, he is….My friends said I had an obsession, but I didn't go to psychiatrist for it. But….I like to see that you suffer for your love. So do I, but, I just, I don't share my suffering with anyone but my friends and close family. But hey, whatever floats your boat. I'm an idiot who likes Mwu La Fllaga too.

Invisible johnny: O.O Sh-Shit. :burrows deeper into bomb shelter: Pleasedon'thurtme! If you want anyone to blame for the long delay, blame KAHBG! If you want anyone to blame for the cliffie then blame me—I mean, not me! I actually got off restriction, but KAHBG and I were a bit stuck, so anyway. Congrats on your graduation and, more importantly, your lack of report cards now. Jeez, I wish I were you. It always means a lot to us when someone takes the time to really show us that they like our fanfics and long, detailed reviews do that. You showed us that you were truly concerned about the fic and that lit the fire under my ass enough for me to post. I'm sure you could easily find me, but, you know, whatever. I have a bit of a death wish myself….

Wandering Cat: I know, I know. But at least I updated, right? No, the principal was not Randall. Actually, we really have no plans for the principal to have another part in the story. :tee hee: I just wrote that as filler, to tell you the truth. So, no, no more evil principal. Hey, I hate Fllay and Hilary Duff too. So don't feel bad. I've already been sensitive to their feelings, so it's not much of a problem. But since my favorite characters from GS are basically Mwu, Murrue, Andy, and Aisha, I don't really care about the rest.

Red and Gold Phoenix: If you have any complaints, please direct them I n KAHBG's direction. :inches away from her coauthoress.: Sorry that the ending was so terrible. I'll try not to do any more cliffies, though I can't promise anything.

SpaceyChic468: The short review is ok, as long as you review, right? Thanks!

Segi-san: He may be on the Archangel, but he doesn't remember her, so that kinda makes it a moot point.

Rachel: Good to see you're still alive, my mini-me. Now, if you could continue reading….

Chikara28: We plan on continuing, if you keep on reading. And I agree, there needs to be more MxM fics.

Chayla Maznable: I'm glad to see you liked it!

Masked Mirage: Thank you for adding to the encouragement about the stalker thing. Sometimes I'm paranoid about the weirdest things….Thank you also for the nice compliments. You sure know how to sweet-talk someone! I have no doubts now that Neo and Mwu are one and the same person. Oh, don't worry, it's not finished yet. Just on a long hiatus. A loooooooooooooong hiatus as it turns out to be. And believe me, you'll know when it's finished. I'll make a big deal about you guys supporting me (and it'll be true) and thank you for the reviews when we're finished. I hate it when I'm not sure if that's the end of a story or not.

Murrue Ramius: Hm. Maybe it just had the elements of the perfect kind of relationship they're to have? As for the shadow-dude, you'll just have to wait for it.

Tennisprincess15: Why don't you people get that I am a sadist and a masochist (sorta) mixed up into one yummy package? Seriously though, I rather liked the cliffie, and sorry if it scared you or anything (well, not really, since it was supposed to scare you), but well, it was my only option!

Well, R&R! (To what, I don't know….)
