AUTHOR NOTE!!!
Okay, I, as much as the next person, know how INCREDIBLY ANNOYING chapter author notes are. BUT THIS IS IMPORTANT!
So that means READ THIS!!!!!
Number One:
Before I get into the important stuff, I just want to say how much I love all you readers for giving me over 100 reviews. ::does a happy dance of glee:: It makes me feel so loved!
Due to having over 100 reviews, I'm going to give all of you a bit of a gift. That gift is, hopefully, a new chapter REALLY SOON!
Normally, I wait a few days for starting another chapter, and then periodically continue it until it's finished. This time, I'm going to take a few days to write an entire chapter, type it up, and then post it. (I've already written out a new time line for the chapter) So, with any luck, you'll have an UPDATE! : ) Isn't that happy?
Number Two:
The vote, as of 2/22/10 – 9:23 EST, is 15 FOR and 7 AGAINST. (Take note, that I only took those people who pretty much said a solid yes or no, so there would be no confusion.)
Now I've had some people pretty much sternly say no and some people who pleaded. I won't name. (And I felt bad that there was a conflict that I created.) THUS! I'm, instead of only being option A or option B, creating a bit of an option C. Hopefully, option C will bring a bit more togetherness, ne?
Option C is the following – instead of an mpreg, there will be an adoption. Now, it could be both Harry and Tom adopting, or just one of them. Depends on the reviews I get. I, personally, am envisioning Harry finding some cute little orphan girl, deciding to take care of her (later adopt) and since he has Tom wrapped around his finger, convince the 'evil dark lord' to let them keep her. (Or, Harry finds this kid before he gets in a relationship with Tom, and uses the whole 'we're both orphans, how could we let this cute little girl be one too' on him when they do get together.)
Now if you pick, option C, Tom could be a second father figure, a weird violent uncle, or some type of mentor; if you don't care, well just leave it up to me.
Number Three:
Feel free to offer suggestions; I'm catering to you, my readers, so I'm always open to ideas. I only started this story because of a vague idea and some boredom. Since then, it has evolved a bit and instead of just writing chapter by chapter, I'm going to be writing up a full time-line for every chapter until it's finished. Let's just say, I've been inspired. So give me some ideas, and if I find they'd really work, I might incorporate them.
Number Four:
From this point on, any reviews I get are only going to get thanks in the chapter and then the name of the reviewer. I'm not going to go into detail like I've been doing. HOWEVER, if you give me an in depth review (love those by the way) or ask a question, I'll try my hardest to respond without using too much space in the chapter. If you want something in depth, tell me, and I'll msg you.
Thank you everyone for dealing with this, and if you complain I'll be upset. So NO complaining!
