Hey everyone, Rachael here. Most of you have probably noticed that I haven't updated this fic in…what, 5 months?

There're three reasons/excuses for that. And I will tell you them now.

One, I was…erm…occupied with Twitter over the summer, which is over with now, long story, really don't wanna get into it. And now school has started back up and being my senior year I've found that I don't have a whole lotta free time anymore. Most of my classes keep me busy all the way through so I don't have a break to write in.

Two, I kind of fell out of Yugioh and into Pokémon, as those who've been paying attention to my new stories could tell. I do that. The revived interest in Pokémon doesn't appear to be going away any time soon, unfortunately. I'm trying my hardest to get back into Yugioh, I assure you.

Three, and most important, I've got writer's block like a motherfucker. For all my fics. Not just this one, but Lies Amid The Blood and Shinedown on my deviantART account. And my muse *coughPuzzleShipping4Evercough* has been less than helpful, following me into the Pokémon faze.

So, yeah. That's my story. I did write a chapter, but the writer's block is so bad that it's only two pages (and I write big) and really shitty now that I read it over. Not at all worthy of a five month wait, and after it, there's nothing. And anyone who says "Do a time skip" I'm gonna punch them in the face, Katie. I've considered it, but I simply can't do a four-month time skip in such a time-oriented fic. The one-month skip was bad enough, but that was done by accident. So, yeah, um, any ideas will not be unwanted. Actually, they'd be quite welcome because I've got the ending completely planned, including the gender and name of the baby, I just need a way to get there. Because not being able to is killing my sanity.

Sorry again to those who follow this fic. You have no idea.

Thank you.

ALSO. This is REALLY irking me. Does anyone know why Microsoft Word 2007 would suddenly go black and white and pixilated? Paint did it too I noticed. They did this out of nowhere and it's really annoying me. I can't figure out how to fix it.
