Hello to all of the fans of this monstrosity fic-like object. It's Bree, since Hadley was logged in yesterday when we submitted our new story, and allowed me to tie up all loose ends with this thing, though requested that I don't kill everyone off in an explosion and then leave Henry to die of a spider bite. I was going to do that, you may want to thank her since every character has now been spared. Damn.
If you haven't read Exceeding Limitations, I'm repeating my explanation. If you have already, too the fuck bad. I'm repeating it anyways since I don't want to do my lab report for Bio.
When we came out of the theatre last June, our idea was originally quite similar - OCs join X-Men, Magneto is a twat, and shit happens along the way. However, this one was more serious and had a legit plot, where this story we actually ended up publishing is just ridiculous crack. And it's bad when I say it's bad, because I adore crackfics. So very much. They're the Pinkie Pies of the fanfiction world. Or the North Italies. I'd say the Frances due to the fact he's quite a butt monkey, but all the lemons are France. Anyways, our story sucked. The original fifteenth chapter was written, and I was considering giving it to you all out of pity, but instead I'm giving you an author's note.
It all made me ashamed to call myself a writer. And as someone whose ambition is to publish a book before I hit 21, that really hit hard. I get it, it was funny. But it was stupid, absolutely ridiculous, I felt as if we poked fun at problems (such as Kahlin's stalker tendencies and the fact that she was a rape baby.) So I apologize to those of you who... actually liked it, but we will not be continuing it and are writing a new version, a more well-written, more serious one with an actual plot line. Thank you for reading this. Screw the TL;DR, I has fanfics.
