8. Important status update! Please Read!

To my readers,

I am so, so sorry that this story hasn't been updated in so long. While work and life in general has kept me from getting the next chapter done, it is really no excuse for how late I am with an update. However, it is not the only reason. The truth is that I have had MAJOR writer's block for this chapter. I know what I want to happen, but every time I try to write I never like what I type. I either dislike the idea, it doesn't fit the tone of the story or it is of poor quality. While I would like to get the chapter posted for you as soon as possible, I refuse to post something of bad quality and that I'm not happy with. You all deserve the best I can give you, nothing less.

I don't yet know how long it will take me to conquer my writer's block for this chapter. I genuinely hope that it is soon. In the meantime, though, there is something else I would like your opinion on. I'm going to write more Diabloik Lovers stories for some of the other Sakamaki and Mukami brother's. I probably won't write stories for all of them (for several reasons), but there are some stories that I already have ideas for. I would like to hear your opinion on which character(s) I should focus on first. Here is a list of the characters/pairings that will definitely get stories and the ideas for the OC's:

Yuma/Edgar x OC – reincarnated love from old gang (Thanks to ashleygrusz for suggesting the idea for this. This one's as much yours as it is mine!)

Subaru x OC/Kaou x OC – twin witches (This would be one story covering both pairings.)

Ruki x OC – second Eve

Laito x OC – half-vampire friend from childhood

I would really like to hear what all of you would like to read next. Please leave a review anytime between know and the end of this story letting me know.

Before anyone floods the reviews with flames of why there isn't an Ayato story on this list, I ship Ayato x Yui. Since all of these stories are all in the same universe (i.e. they will all be sequels to this story), I will be spreading the Ayato x Yui story throughout all the other stories. Once they have been completed, I will write a one-shot for the pair to wrap up loose ends and tie everything together for them.

Now, with that little rant out of the way, I have one more thing to tell everyone. If you have checked my profile lately, then you already know this. For those that haven't, I have created a Twitter account where I will be posting status updates on all of my stories. If, in the future, I get delayed in updating, I will leave a post with the expected update date/time. I will also be posting the results of votes and announcements of future stories there as well. My Twitter handle is Sarah Elizabeth Jahn sarahthemage.

Thank you all for your patience, ideas and encouragement,
