THIS IS NOT A NEW CHAPTER
I'm sorry for the "fake-out" chapter, I know it's frowned-upon. I also want to apologize for my long absence. This story is NOT abandoned! I've just had a LOT of real-life interference the last year and a half, most pressingly my classes—as a lit major, most of my schoolwork involves writing, so I'm sort of out of steam by the time I do come by some free time. That said, I've got another chapter that should be up within a few days, and my goal (however unlikely, but I'll try!) is to upload a chapter a week if at all possible.
Again, I'm sorry, and thank you all for reading, reviewing, and loving—and most of all, for being PATIENT. You're fantastic! 3
