Cogito ergo sum (ON HIATUS!)

by Schwarzennwolf

"I think, therefore I am" The Outsider is finally released from his imprisonment in the Void and returned back to the mortal world by no other than Billie Lurk. Where will his new regained life lead him and who will be by his side on this unusual new journey? Eventual Emsider, very slow burn and hopefully really long fic. Rating may change in later chapters.

3. Short Notice

~Not an update, but a notice~

Dear followers and readers, I deeply apologize for the lack of updates (for 6 months), it was not my intention to make you wait this long.
I'm posting this notification here and now instead of update to keep in touch with you and explain what was going on in my life for the past half a year. Please bear with me.

I did not abandon this work, I literally had no time to keep writing it because of all the drama going on in fandom and real life.

Firstly, as I've mentioned before, I study in the university and I have a little free time to spare on working on this story. I study veterinary medicine which is very hard and time consuming as well as I'm also attending self-defense courses due to recent...events. I had to (and still need to) pass a lot of exams that were due, because if I hadn't done them, I would have been kicked out. I have literally no support from neither my family nor friends (only one, but we can only talk through Skype once per 2-3 weeks).
I have been diagnosed with clinical depression and the only living thing that is holding me tight in this world is my dog. I'd be gone without her.

Second of all, about the fandom drama. I've seen so much hate circulating around Emsider ship on Tumblr and it affected me too but only partially. What really drew me away from Dishonored was the fact that my art ideas were stolen and shamelessly posted by other, more popular artist who's now recieving all the appraisal from it. Not only that, but also only today I found out that someone else stole the name from my fanfiction and used it in their own work on Ao3 (proof).

I'm very emotionally exhausted from it and on a verge of literal suicide, but I'll try my best to manage it.
Hey, no one said life was easy, right?

Anyway, I know there are quite a few of you (which left me speechless from joy and happiness because I never expected to receive much attention) who's signed up for the updates and I'm very surprised to see that people are actually enjoying this story, despite the fact that I see it as a total failure full of mistakes and also grammar (again, not a native English speaker). I felt very obligated to inform you that this story is not abandoned just yet, I'll do my best to update it in few days/weeks (chapter 3 is almost done!) and once again I'm terribly sorry to keep you waiting for so long.

With love, Schwarzennwolf.
