NOTE: This chapter contains thoughts from the author. As the title indicates, there are SPOILERS regarding this story, and the original one this story is based upon, Your Lie in April. Please do not read this chapter unless you have read/ this story or read/watched Your Lie in April in full, or my alternate fic story His Lie in April.

The rest of you, please enjoy this insight from me about this fic.

It is amazing what a wild imagination can do to your mind. After watching the gut-wrenching Your Lie in April and writing the even MORE gut-wrenching fic His Lie in April, it had me thinking: After watching the 2012 film adaptation of The Three Stooges, I wanted to put the YLiA characters in a more comedic light. So, this came to my mind.

Basically, in this story, Kaori Miyazono is equal to Moe, Tsubaki Sawabe is equal to Larry and Ryouta Watari is equal to Curly. Kaori, as you know, is (obviously) the smartest of the three. I had come up with this idea during my trip to Anime Expo in July 2019; it wasn't until the next month until I got around to it. The fic takes place in the His Lie in April universe, BTW. And yes, as you saw, this is a fic-within-a-fic. Sort of like Adventure Time's Fionna the Human and Cake the Cat. :D

Would you also believe that the basis for the story was a part of His Lie in April where Kousei is accidentally seen bare-chested by his friends when he fell asleep in his bathtub, and he admonished Kaori, Watari and Tsubaki for doing that by calling them The Three Stooges? That's what's got the ball rolling on this story. And boy, do I feel proud that I wrote it. I hope you've enjoyed it!

Before I end this, I'd like to thank my friend, Daniel for helping me out with parts of this fic. Without him, I'd be a just another scrub writer. He's a pretty good friends to me.

And thank you, the reader of this fic, for staying with me. I am satisfied that you have enjoyed this story. It means a lot to me, as both a person and a writer. See you around...
