I'm deeply sorry to the people that saw this and thought an update might've finally came. This is not a new chapter.

Between the last time I updated and now, I've gotten busy with school or college applications, or I've gotten into different communities (right now I'm reading Oregairu SNAFU, love the story) and haven't really had the motivation to pick this fic back up. When I finally did get around to writing out the rest of Taki's birthday party, everything seemed wrong and contrived.

My biggest regret is that I didn't have a plan to follow when I started this fic two and a half years ago. It was right after I watched Your Name, feelings were rather high, and I rushed right into Chapter 1. This act of thoughtless passion propelled me rather well through the exposition (looking back on Chapter 7, the festival date, I think it might be the best thing I've ever written), but now, as I'm trying to find a way to tie this story up, I'm struggling. (To all prospective fanfic writers, that's probably the best advice you can get – for multi chapter things, plan plan plan).

I think I've regressed as a writer as well, making picking the pieces back up rather difficult.

Over the next few (hopefully only few) months, I'll fix the mistake I made when starting out and actually plan for the endgame of Remembering You. I'll probably also go backwards and make adjustments to previous chapters.

It's been a long journey and it's certainly not over yet. Thanks to all of you who have stuck with me throughout these years, and I hope to do my best to make my story well worth the wait.
