So, yes, this probably will get taken down and I'll get in trouble. I'm only going to keep this up for a couple a days, maybe a week.
Apologies are in order, I suppose. I know I promised a couple of months ago that I would have finished this story by now. Truth is… A lot of stuff happened. Personal family stuff, moving, blah blah blah. You get the drill I know this fic - which, out of the four I've written, is the most popular, which I'm very grateful for - just isn't doing it for me anymore. The story took a turn I really didn't want it to take. I probably could have avoided this problem if I actually set up a plot beforehand, rather than just write on the go. But now… I just don't enjoy writing the story. That's the bottom line. I thought about it a bit, and the ZnT anime really actually isn't very special to me as it was when I first watched it way back when. I know that shouldn't really matter, but it effects how I feel about the story as a whole. I can't really write characters I remember very well. Which is obviously the case in my own character, Cronoz. I really liked the character in the beginning, but now? The idea was to have him become more human, I guess. But that hasn't played out at all how I wanted it to.
So that's the issue. I can't really continue this story. I am so, so sorry to all those who have enjoyed it, which is a hell of a lot. I mean, I don't know if having a lot of followers and favorite… ters(?) is a common thing, but hey, it works for me. I really appreciate everyone who read, reviewed, and commented on this. It really means a lot. I honestly don't even think I could have spat out that last update back in… what, December, if it hadn't been for you guys.
I don't know how I can save this fic, but I also don't want to see it rot on such a sour note. So… I'm leaving it up to you guys. (I'm sure I shouldn't be writing this out in public, but hey, how else am I supposed to get it out?) There's two options: One, I give you a summarized ending of how the fic was supposed to end. It won't be entertaining, but it would probably tie up the loose ends.
Or, two. If you guys really, really enjoy the fic that much, I will try my hardest to actually create a worthwhile ending that will satisfy everyone. Message me through P.M, so it doesn't fill up the review box, which I know sounds petty, and that it looks like I'm just trying to get attention, but I am sincerely not. I'm not one of those kind of people (OK, now that sounds a little petty). I am just giving you the opportunity to choose Cronoz's fate.
If this gets taken down, then hey, what are you going to do. Thanks again for all the support. I really couldn't have done it without you guys.
