I am going to need your guys input on this before Wings of Salvation continues. I am going to post this on my Tumblr too so I can get more opinions on this. Also, a important thing to know for Archive Of Our Own readers is that I originally started this fic in 2018 on and moved it here do to complications. /p

For those who have read the version have probably noticed it has had quite a few retcons. It is because in the year that I have been on hiatus I have changed my mind on how I want to do something things in this fic. I have honestly considered just rewriting the the fic from the ground up because I don't really want the previous protagonists to be in it anymore. When thinking of the eventual finale of the story I found that it has been hard to balance their role in the story with the bracelet girls. With them in it kinda makes the bracelet girls irrelevant unless I nurfed them. And I don't really want to do that to them. Not to mention I have had to write a reason for them to suddenly show up and not be there in the original Arc V. Honestly, the Yuma and Judai explanations are flimsy at best while I honestly don't have any for Yugi. He's just extremely hard to right for because of his whole King of Games thing. Because of that I can't really make him lose when he would eventually show up and that would be broken. Yusei is honestly the only one I ever had a solid plan for and because I had him I felt obligated to include the others./p

p style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13.229999542236328px; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'GNU Unifont', Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; list-style: none; margin: 1.286em auto; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5; caret-color: #2a2a2a; color: #2a2a2a;"Second choice: I completely rewrite it without the protagonists in it. And use the explanation that they were fused with the fragments to create the Yu boys. /p

Because this fic is going to be the foundation of my future Arc V fics. The idea of this fic which would be eventually revealed is that Arc V is in a time loop. It is because using that explanation I can use the same continuity and explore multiple what ifs or other ideas. Though, how does this timeline loop idea apply or effect Wings of Salvation? The first and most obvious is that it is how this fic happens to begin with. To summarize the original timeline of Arc V ended horribly and with nature power she turned back time. A important thing to know is that the original timeline is not the Arc V anime it is the second one. In the original timeline the Dimensional War never happened, but something else did. While, the conflict starts later it is arguably /This eventually leads to Wings of Salvation which is one of the irregular timelines where the Crimson Dragon decides to get involved. It actually finds Yugo and Clear Wing by complete chance and Yugo becomes a signer. Wings of Salvation is the foundation because it is the last loop and the one where everyone finds out their in a time loop. And everything mentioned here is explained in much more detail./p

I'm not writing anymore non complete au Arc V fics until I get at least a few answers since it would be weird to go off one. This basically affects any in universe fic like a what if scenario like Wings of Salvation or a crossover that takes place in Arc V this includes the Vanguard crossover that I have been working on. I'll work on other projects until get a answer. So, please if you have any investment into the fic leave your opinion in the comments. This story will either continue or be rebooted based on your decision after I receive at least 10 suggestions obviously from different people. Consider two choices the fic continues as it is or I rewrite it./p

If the protagonists are removed the bracelet girls can be more useful if not I can guarantee they at least won't be as useless as in Arc V. Though, that's not saying much./p
