Hey guys, CVL here.

Just...wow. How long has it been since my last update? 3 months? 6 months? Almost a year?

Maybe none of you even remember who I am.

I'll stop beating around the bush. I felt like a total ass for leaving you all without saying anything, so I came back to tell you about what might possibly be one of the biggest decisions I've ever made.

I'm not writing fanfics anymore.

Seems a little bit ironic considering my last update, huh?

But yes, you heard that right. This story, along with all of my other fanfics, is now officially dead. And I'm not writing any future ones. Though, that doesn't mean I'll quit FanFiction entirely. I'll still be reading and reviewing anime, game and Vocaloid fanfics.

Why, you ask? There's quite a few reasons.

1)...Let's just say I'm probably getting too old for this. I'm sixteen, I don't want to get expelled for low grades, and now I'm working on the biggest project of my life. Compared to that, writing silly fanfics describing alternate routes and dragging on a story which already ended 2 years ago seems a little bit childish, doesn't it?

2) I'm so, so, SO ashamed of everything I've written on this site. My newer followers may not know, but I made this account and wrote my first story, an Adventure Time fanfic, when I was 12. That's right, 12. The age where you begin to think you're cool and hip and so much better than your peers that you start doing things that will only embarrass yourself in the future. And trust me when I say this story, which I wrote when I wasn't even in high school yet, isn't that good either; Even though it's still miles above my previous works, it's pure garbage compared to works other people have made, like Hinori Lwin in the OnS section and Dark Waffle in the FT section. Believe it or not, I would've still continued Eliminate! for old times' sake and for funsies if it weren't for my newly acquired "artist sense" to yell at me that it's no use trying to hold on, and that it's better to just leave the story. So I did.

3) I was just...tired. Tired of writing, tired of this whole fanfiction thingy. Tired of having to spend time on writing something that I don't even have ideas for anymore when there's so much else to do. So I took a break. Which lasted for longer than I expected, and eventually became permanent, as you can see now. I partially broke free from that indefinite hiatus to try writing my own original story, but that's it. The passion for writing fanfics inside me has died out forever, and there's not a single thing I can do about it.

I don't even know how to apologize to you guys, who've waited forever for a new chapter. Especially Nerrevarrine, who had been so nice to me and actively questioned about the story, occasionally cracked jokes and even provided me with a few suggestions.

I was...scared. Scared of coming back. Scared of facing my past and burning my bridges. Though I guess everyone does at one point, don't they?

So, there you have it. The guy who contributed to the return of FinnxFionna fanfics, the guy who made Adventure Time The Movie and its sequel and the guy who apparently broke your hearts with an Akame ga Kill! oneshot, has lost his passion in writing fanfiction and will go on a permanent hiatus. I know this all seems fake, and whiney, and really pathetic (trust me, I feel that every time I write an author's note like this), but it's all I've got to say.

Just one more thing, before I leave. If you're a fanfic writer, or any kind of artist that's reading this: Don't let go of your passion. Hold on to your embers as long as possible, and try your best not to let it fade away. Don't be like me and just give up halfway, because you'll feel horrible afterwards.
