Heya everyone, it's me!

Sincerely, to everyone who reviewed, favourited, and followed, in any shape or form, thank you.

Now, this isn't an announcement or anything, story should continue as usual.

It's just that there have been so many reviews from the latest chapter! I'm glad for that, I really am. Instead of including responses in the A/N for the next chapter, however, since there have been so many this time, I thought I'd just write it out here, as a standalone. Sorry if I scared you or anything :P This may continue should a similar thing happen again, thus the title above.

In general, some of you guys said that Monsoon's conversation with Raiden was weaker than the original. I'll admit that maybe I changed too much from the source material. A mistake on my part. I'm sorry. I'll try to do better next time.

To Skeletalrepublic, I, uh, don't know what to say. Thanks, thanks a lot for the follow! I hope I can keep doing good! And yeah, Monsoon was a fucked up man, and so was the memes speech.

To gaming-is-served, I'm glad you love it! Especially since chapter one was kinda the weakest, at least I think? Eh, you be the judge!

To TITAN URANUS, you'll see~

To Mernom, I'm glad you liked the idea! And for the memes speech, as I said before, a mistake on my part. I'm sorry.

To Six02, long time no see! Wow, you really think it's improved that much? Thanks for the kudos and support!

To SplitsShot, yeah, canon divergence from MGR won't be too divergent. Most of timeline from now on remains the same, except for two major differences. You'll have to find out what they are later though~. And again, sorry for changing the speech too much.

To Kabuto S. Inferno, I 100% agree with you that I changed it too much. Maybe I should've found another way… anyways, yeah, Jaune's arc isn't over just yet. He's still got things to figure out, particularly when he comes back. And the sync with "The Only Thing I Know for Real" really was purely coincidental. I debated on changing the chapter name to that part of the lyric, but I felt that it would be in bad taste. I'm sure glad it worked out, though! And I'm also glad that my point about Raiden's semblance got through. His semblance is his Aura. Every time he brings either one out, the other will follow. They cannot be separated. And since Semblance, the magical ability any Hunter can unlock, drains Aura, he'll lose/be depleted of it if he keeps it on all the time. So it has to be used either in bursts or as a final trump card. For balancing, taking from in-canon, Raiden never turned his pain inhibitors back on. I liked to think that if this effect were to be implemented in-game, every enemy will do more damage while his health pool stays the same (e.g foot-soldier swings goes from taking 20% to 25%). Lore wise, Raiden feels the same pain a human does, it's just he can take more of it than normal humans. And that's fucking torture. I'll explain why in the future chapter I hope. Aside from that, thank you for the input for the song list! I'll try to keep it optional, but some chapters will inevitably be inspired by some music. Music that goes thematically, of course.

To mera mera no mi, memes, memes memes!

To JCraig5, Yeah, I can see your point. Maybe you clicked on the story based on the blurb/summary and expected what you did, and I completely understand. It's just that I felt that it would be in bad taste to just skip all of Raiden's scenes. He's a character too, y'know? He should get some screentime to relate to the audience, as does everyone else. And Jaune was still in his first semester in Beacon. I'm glad that you like it so far. Maybe I should include more Remnant interludes? Hmm~

To Kerrisive, wow, that's a long review. You hit the nail on the head regarding Jaune and Raiden. Regarding the themes of MGS's themes, like MGS3's "not everything will stay with us forever", I'm glad that I managed to make them come through in the story, even if most of the time I didn't mean to. However, I do go back here and there to get the general feel of the games, because MGR here can be so much more if it was connected to MGS-style events. Aside from that, I can't really say much more, both because of spoilers and afraid of details changing down the line. I'm happy that you're enjoying it so far! :)

And finally, to MysticSpider, I give you this: /watch?v=IOC4ELJSs58
