Well... I owe you guys one heck of an apology. I certainly didn't mean to go over half a year without updating this fic, but I ran into some... complications, shall we say. The biggest thing that happened was me losing my job and having to adapt to a new job and my new schedule, which took far longer than I'd have liked but that definitely happens when you go from a set schedule you know by heart to every day having a different time you'd be working, on top of the stress from a change in pay and figuring out how to adapt regarding bills. Beyond that, I have definitely started involving myself in way too many side hobbies again as a means of coping with that stress, which has brought with it the unfortunate side effect of not being able to find time to comfortably sit down and write. That said, however... I am determined to see this fic through to the end no matter what, and this was the last of the unplanned chapters so I'm back to having my outline to work from. Also, pending any chapter splits (which might happen with the next one because, at least going off my outline, it's a doozy), there should be only two chapters left from this point, and I think you can guess what the next one is going to focus on.
