If you saw and signed the petition that was previously this chapter, I love you. Thank you, and I apologize for like…Not updating until now…*brick'd*

Due To Certain Circumstances

I will not be able to publish chapter 7 of A Symphony of Innocence as soon as I would have liked. I wanted to publish it instead of this stupid author's note, since I hate the fact that it takes up a chapter, but I'm afraid my laptop is trying my patience. So while I try to recover chapter 6 of ASOI I'd like to apologize. *brick'd*

I truly am sorry for this...unexpected delay. I will try to post the chapter by the end of the week. Until then I've been writing a side story on my tumblr (url is asianpaint) under my drabble page. Romeo, Romeo & Juliet is a drabble version of this story, which might include a few spoilers or so, I don't know. I didn't intend to use it as a filler for this story. Nezumi's name in RR&J is Alice, and in the story it'll just be short drabble like parts with no real story line. Just their daily lives at the Black Order and maybe a bit more insight on my reclusive, quiet character.

Copy paste this, then get rid of the spaces. drabbles

*seiza* Thanks for sticking in there, if you still are.

To the anon who reviewed: *this is so overdue I should have posted this earlier*

You not only insulted the pride and hard work I have put into this story, but you've reviewed without even considering what reasons I might have had to want to write this story. I wrote this because I wanted to. I wanted a challenge, taking on two stories at once. It failed if anything else, but I couldn't care less. I like the love triangle plot. I like it so much that I even added it to the first story I published on this site, despite the chance that it might turn away readers. Sure, readers are important, but they're not as important as the writer. If the writer disliked the story's concept, what fun would it be to write it? It'd feel empty and maybe you can even pick up on the dislike from the way the story was wrote. Story can have chapters, and every chapter words. Writers are inspired and influenced by what happens around them. If they're angry, the chapter they worked on during the time can hold the angry feelings using the words. I'll never truly know why you reviewed with words like that; maybe to make yourself feel better or whatever the fuck your reason is. My point is, you can't hurt me because I refuse to let your words get the better of me. You can review as many times as you want about how horrible my story plot is, or about how much this love triangle idea is just a fucking load of bullshit, and I won't care. I like this story, and if you got a problem with that, all I can say is to either keep your goddamned opinions to yourself, or continue to review about how shitty this story is. You'd be better off with the former, because if you do review again, it simply proves my point that you have some personal gain from doing that merely because you decided to review again. Go on, review again. That is, if you dare.

Go on. See if I care. After all, I've got nothing but my pride to lose.
