Okay, I hate to do this to you all, but I'm afraid that as of now, Sacrifice ½ is officially closed down. I may very well start a "sequel" fiction continuing on from the events depicted in the last chapter, but I'm afraid that isn't very likely so far.
It was a long run, and I enjoyed writing this. I also enjoyed reading all of your enthusiastic reviews; from the moment the concept for this story came into my head, I was afraid it'd be derided, or that I would be mocked for my lack of writing skills. You all coached me through my fears and helped make this story run into what could almost be considered a semi-epic. Now, I've moved on to other stories, and with luck they too will flourish as this did.
However, I have an idea that might make this event a little less emotional. Several times throughout Sacrifice ½ I received reviews asking for side-stories detailing the lives of Ranma's "Others": Cinder, Sooth, Grit and –especially- Blight. With these closing notes, I'm asking for the last time: should I write "Sacrifice ½: Blight's Story"? (I know the name stinks, and I'd welcome suggestions as to better ones.) If you respond to these notes with reviews and/or PMs requesting this, and especially if you provide ideas for particularly "note-worthy" events from Blight's life in Stygia, I will write it as I wait for reviews to my new project; "Red Dwarf One-Half" and to my first (and looking to be my last, so far) foray into Teen Titans fiction.
