Hi guys,

I'm abandoning this work.

Feel free to be mad at me, I don't blame you, but as I writer, I find A Different Kind of Punishment is no longer a piece I'm that concerned with. I started this piece as a humor filled redemption arc for Loki, that was the meaning of it, its purpose and it worked for some time. BUT, as of last year, Loki already redeemed himself in canon. He allied with his brother during Ragnarök and sacrificed himself in Infinity War (I figure this is no longer spoilers). The purpose of A Different Kind of Punishment is fulfilled, and therefore I lack a reason to write it.

To some of you, this might seem like a dumb reason to stop writing. I mean, in the context of two years ago A Different Kind of Punishment was still sort of relevant. As an AU it still is relevant, but I just don't feel the need to redeem Loki anymore. I'm done; I'm over it (in the words of Key and Peele's Meegan).

Here's some information to assuage your anger at me:

1. I'll give whoever asks for it first in the review section the rights to the story. You can continue it, you can raise it like your child, or a plant, or a baby Groot.

2. Loki-centric stories aren't over for me. I have two right now that are in the process of being outlined. Expect them to be posted within the next six months. Prepare for some post-Infinity War existential angst!

Thank you so much for going on this journey with me!
