Authors note:

This fanfiction of mine has had fluctuating interest over the past three years. It was a cute idea back when I first started it, but as I got into roleplaying and expanded my writing, I realized that while the material was substantial enough, it lacked the pace and character intensity I wanted it to, and looking back on it after all these months I've come to realize that it's... juvenile.

Don't get me wrong. I love the idea and for the most part I am not beating myself up about the writing. But it lacks a lot of structure and a real plot line as I was really just writing it for fun. I have several ideas on how I could sucessfully finish the story, but I find that I don't want to, because I have done some injustice to both the characters and universe alike.

Will I finish this? I'm not sure. It's more likely I will rewrite, scrap, and update some of the chapters if not a bad on the story just on the principle.

As a roleplayer of many years, I find it difficult to write something worth merit when I write it on my own. I have a steady sense of progression, but I find that my writing becomes repetitive and bland on my own. I'm also not as emotionally invested if I am on both sides of the conversation.

Loki is not a character I can easily slip into. I largely base my interpretation on the Loki roleplayers I have known throughout my time playing as Hawkeye or Thor. So it's honestly not easy for me to write as him.

I suppose what I'm getting at is: that I'm surprised, flattered, and thankful that this story continues to be asked for updates and critiqued regularily. I'm only sad and embarrassed that I can't deliver. I can be persuaded to make an effort to fix the problems of this fic and even continue it, but I don't think I can do it on my own.

Writing something that has to really stir me up. I need someone to write with. Someone to really kick me into first gear. And honestly I wouldn't need much. But until I find a Loki that clicks and actually thinks this silly fic idea is worth a shot, I don't think I will continue. Thank you all for your great reviews! I hope to see you when I get my computer back, hopefuy by the end of this month. Tata.
