A/N: This "chapter" has a long A/N explaining myself and what I'm gonna be doing for this story, but here's a few lines of stuff so no one can complain about it being purely author notes.

"...Master, do you mind if I just... wipe him off the face of the earth?" Berserker asked, staring, with a face that fully displayed his sheer shock and contempt, at the Matou boy. Illya understood exctly what he was ffeling. Just looking at Rider's "Master"- Illya had done her research, and knew for a fact that he wasn't able to use magecraft- made her physically ill.

"Please do, Berserker."

And on that day, Shinji Matou died by the hands of a pissed off Berserker.

A/N: Now, onto the Author's Notes.

I am so sorry that I haven't updated in so long. When I first wrote this fic, I had only really been exposed to F/SN, and a bit of Fate/Apocrypha, and I really didn't understand the whole Servant thing, like Noble Phantasms, stats, skills, and Servant Types. So, I semi-abandoned it for what, a year? It's been a while, at any rate. Then, about a month ago, I started playing Fate/Grand Order, and I got back into the Fate franchise. Over the past month, I've learned a lot more about the Fate universe that I probably should have known, and now have a better understanding of the whole Servant thing, as well as the world it takes place it itself. So, yes, I WILL BE CONTINUING THIS STORY, and have a lot of ideas and scenes planned out. I'm still in the planning and research stage, and have no idea how I want it to end, but I am determined to see this through. I'll be researching and planning for a while longer, but rest assured, the writing will come soon. When it does, the first chapter will likely be rewritten to fit my new vision for it, and I will place Allen's stats and stuff at the bottom in a note.

What I want to do in this fic is to better flesh out the F/SN Illya and her relationships with others, particularly our new Berserker, and explore her development as a person over the events of F/SN. I also wish to dive into a post-Holy War version of Allen, and his relationship with Illya. All of this, in a platonic lighting. If I include ANY pairings, they will not be tagged under the relationships thing in the search thingy, and will likely be implied in the background but never outright stated. I do this because I honestly hate the tagging system here on , and prefer AO3 almost always.

Anyways, please keep a look out for any updates in the future. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to either comment below or PM me. Even if it's small, I enjoy hearing from y'all.

Thanks for reading
