== END OF ACT 2

You sit back in your chair eminently proud of yourself. After all, you just read approximately 90 000 words of content that you could only fully understand after reading the world's longest webcomic. Surely you deserve some sort of reward or trophy, but all the fic before you is suggesting is that you go to the lobby to buy overpriced treats, in hopes of distracting you from the fact that it did not originally possess an act structure.

Wait a minute. Overpriced treats? Act structure? Why, it's almost as though you've entered some sort of-

INTERMISSION

Of course! Clearly the only way to subdivide a large-scale fanfic is into two halves broken up by another, mid-scale fic on some related subject! You hope it's about one of the subjects that drew you to this fic in the first place, like relationships or Weird Alien Shit some other factor tied to quality writing and endearing chara it's about the Squiddles, isn't it?

== [I] Jade: Locate favourite DVDs

Yup. Well thankfully it appears to be set in the A Hand In Holding Hands universe, with the same characters. In fact, in hindsight this plot seems to have already started in the previous chapter, so you've sort of already been reading it. You consider that since it's an Intermission, it must not be essential, but as an Intermission it must still be important. It appears you have been given a free chioce in this manner - either that or the author thought it would be a royal pain to actually insert the fic into the AO3 copy, chapter by chapter, and is simply being consistent.

So you suppose you could watch it, and you could get delicious candy being served by the pale guy in the hallway. He looks like an excellent Refreshment Technician. He is simply the best there is.

(Unfortunately, because you have chosen to read this fic here and not on sites that actually support features like links, you're going to have to go to my profile and pick out the fic. It's entitled:)

== [I] The Dargon Arc

(Or rather, just "The Dargon Arc".)

And yeah, this is what's getting updated for the next while.
