I've gotten several different comments on updates. I still don't know when I can continue writing, although I am also a bit frustrated by my lack of free time. The longer I go unable to write, the harder it will be for me to pick up momentum when I return. However, I'm still navigating college life and my independent life in general. I'm still trying to work out how to mix school and writing, especially because my major has an accelerated program (2 undergrad + 3 grad years) that requires a lot of focus on my part and allows little free time for myself to enjoy for relaxation. I do hope that my interterm will offer a period of time to write though. 
          	
          	I also have some comments from people who are reasonably upset by my Black Butler and Akatsuki no Yona stories having readers with set appearances. I've changed the titles to indicate that the reader is technically an OC that you as a reader can insert your name for, so I hope there is less commentary on being misleading. If these title updates were sent as a notification of a story update, I'm so sorry for disappointing :(

@Hideka_Bushida thanks :)
          	  I actually don’t mind update comments as long as they’re not pushy. I just feel a little bad for making people sit around uncertainly :’)

@ChibiNuocMia No problem! Your books aren't the priority in your life, education is more important! But the update comments just show that people like your works!

Heyo. I was just wondering if you'll be updating "The Tales of a Fox" anytime soon?

@Barendsenn I'm actually still glad you be able to update, don't be too hard on yourself though

@Barendsenn hey, sorry, I haven’t been able to look at this stuff for a pretty long time now. 
            
            To answer your question, I might be able to squeeze something in before the year ends, but it’s highly unlikely that I can consistently update anytime in the next few years due to my accelerated undergrad program and the fact my graduate studies begin next year. I apologize if that’s not what you wanted to hear :’) 
            
            But I will do my best to make at least a sporadic update every once in a while, especially with the new anime season coming out.

When you finally have just the teeniest amount of time to write, but absolutely no energy left so you pass out in an afternoon-long nap that fucks with your sleep schedule even more (even after having had coffee earlier in the day)

It feels so weird not knowing anyone. I’m only talking with and introducing myself to people. Meanwhile both my roommates are popular and just easily making friends :’)

ChibiNuocMia

@papillon_mysterieux I hope so. Right now is still orientation, but once class starts I think I’ll be talking to more people. In the meantime, my roommate is bringing new friends into our room like everyday and I’m just hella awkward about it lol

@ChibiNuocMia of course it's gonna be weird at first, but you'll get there. It might take time, but you'll find great friends.

I’m just standing there like ‍♀️. Too awkward and terrible at speaking for prolonged periods of time.

Guys. I'll be moving into my college dorm in a week. I've been packing and trying to come to terms with the fact that it's actually happening. And I feel like it's way too early for me to feel ready for it.
          
          It's good for me. I'll be more independent and responsible, but like... at the same time, I already feel homesick. I don't regret choosing the college I chose or anything, but I do know that I'll probably burst into tears randomly because I miss my little brother or something. I'm going to a private college where I don't know anyone. It's like a whole reset. I don't have anybody telling me what I should do, or if what I'm doing is right/wrong, and it scares the fuck out of me. But I'm also more free to do things than I've ever been in my life and it feels weird, y'know?
          
          So yeah. I'm just a messy ball of anxiety right now and it's a little hard to focus on writing because I'm stuck in my headspace, but I'm trying to finish editing the drafts I have for now.

@ChibiNuocMia AH that's good to know then ^^, gotta a little worried when ye weren't updating but now I know why!! I'll go ahead and re-read your gems of fanfics

Why tf is federal financial aid such a pain in the ass to get ;-;
          And why are college expenses so damn complicated?

papillon_mysterieux

@ChibiNuocMia hopefully you'll get things in order.

@ChibiNuocMia my parents fsa's were the same in the beginning. It only got better once my second yr of college happened. Having to go to college is nuts. Especially with all the paperwork and having to get everything done for the financial aid was definitely something else

ChibiNuocMia

@papillon_mysterieux I definitely believe you. My parents’ FSA accounts have been acting up so I can’t even do the stuff I need to do, and it’s driving me absolutely insane :’)

Hello, hello. I'm ALIVE, woah! I've made this announcement on my Quotev account, but I think it's only fair to write it here too.
          
          I just want to address everyone who's been asking whether or not I'll be continuing my stories: I don't plan to abandon any of the stories at the moment. However, I don't know when I'll be able to work on them, so I'm basically on an indefinite hiatus right now.
          
          Earlier in the year, I was struggling with college applications and looking good for the sake of a good education ;-;
          Now, I'm currently swamped with swim league finals, upcoming AP exams, graduation and finals preparations, a club collaboration project, etc. So while I do have the skeletons of a few drafts and ideas, I don't have time to flesh them out or edit them. At the soonest, I think there's a tiny chance that I can publish a new chapter of at least one story by sometime in May, but I wouldn't really guarantee anything until around maybe June.
          
          I want to apologize to all my readers who've been looking forward to updates and have been disappointed by my failure to deliver. Thanks for being so patient :')

@Wolves-of-the-moon I am alive, yes, thank you for checking in. 
            
            I've just had a lot going on in my life and was unable to actually write much. This week I'm doing swimming leagues (four events in the finals), seeing a play I wrote being acted out as a club collaboration project with the theatre kids, Saturday is prom, next week is AP exams, high school graduation is in like a month... 
            
            I mentioned having to struggle with my schedule in my Quotev feed, but I think I'll post an announcement on this one too.
