    Hai, thanks for another comment, Pixie! It's been a great journey with this characters, but maybe it's time to end it. I don't want them to tire people out, or tire out the characters themselves. A lot of things happened, so it will be over soon. IHAIS will have a sequel, the final one to this saga, so it should be alright. I'm trying to make it alright, at least.

    About your profile comment. Well, I'm glad you had such an awesome summer, and that all your exams results seem to be A's, that's really good! :D My summer was calmer; had to stay at home and take care of my niece, along with my sister and the rest of the family of course, so it was smooth. And didn't manage to write as much as I wanted to, but I'm taking my revenge now that college started again ;P

    I literally hate writer's block. IT makes me feel shitty, and moody too, which isn't a positive thing. But brainstorming can also help people to end their writer's block, so keep reading other stuff and having different ideas. Maybe it'll bring something specific to your mind!

    Hey, thanks for another comment. It doesn't matter that you were silent for some time, I understand your reasoning, and it's always rewarding to read your feedback - no matter ow long it takes to come.
    I'm glad you saw the point in everything that happened in the story until now, because every detail will be important for it. And for the end of this so-so-long saga! It was also important to have elena talking about herself a little. It shouldn't be too focused on the two men - she would have been forgotten! And she IS an essential link between the two of them. You'll see.

    Thank you for being there, really.
    how have you been? <3

    yeah, LJ - LiveJournal, it's another community where fanfiction has an important presence, but I've only been posting there because Erika was banned from Mibba, and she said she'd like to keep reading my stuff.

    And guess what? New update right up next :D!

    Yeah, but I posted it on LJ and thought about re-reading it and change what I didn't like. And so it happened, :D and now it's gonna be on Mibba too, because this is AKAIWS true home!

    Well, it HAS been over, I've just changed some stuff and decided to re-post it on Mibba, to have the newer version of the story online. The changes I've made aren't exactly significative, they're only details and stuff, but I've also reduced the number of chapters and taken out most of the irrelevant scenes, so there's nothing new about it.

    But I'm glad you were so infatuated about it <3

    and well, why is it unexpected but a lovely surprise? I mean, I know I didn't have to re-read and change details in AKAIWS, but why did you said that in your comment? XD

    I believe in the power of writing just because you NEED to, nothing else. And if it makes you happy about it, that's because you're doing it right :) so, being worried and unhappy about any lack of comments, surely isn't making it right, I would say.

    And yeah, there'll be tears and smiles. That's my favorite kind of ending, really, where we can feel content with how it was built, even if there's been bad stuff happening.

    well, thank you very much. It's really flattering when people like our stories, obviously, and of course it matters if people comment or not. It does bother me if I don't get the same amount of people commenting, or if no one comments at all, but I try to forget it because it can't the reason why I write. I gotta do it for myself, and that's the line of thought that keeps me going :)

    And yeah, I wanna have an ending to make people smile. For me, for the characters and for the readers. And because we've shared enough tears, I'm sure. And because there will be some more, and I wanna have some smiles before getting to that part. Even if the tears might come along with some "AWW"s in the future :D! At least, I hope so!

    I really don't think it matters how good you are. I mean, take a look at the examples we have online. Some authors have great feedback and lots of readers who care to leave them a commet, even if not to say much. Other authors, some much better than the first ones, don't have that luck. It's just about getting readers and fans, being lucky to that point. Being good at something doesn't matter that much nowadays... that's why I don't bother to publish my stuff, because I know it's not up to my quality. Everything's about the public, now, what sells and what doesn't.
    Also, I only write for the pleasure of getting the stories out of my head. Publishing them is a completely different level, and I'm not ready to get there yet. Maybe one day, maybe never... who knows.

    About this story, they might not get back together, but I'm sure the ending will make you smile. You'll see :)

    Well, I didn't say they would get back together, I jsut mentioned that things would work out for them. It can mean a lot of things, but I'm not trying to kill your hopes, I promise :D
    Also, it is definitely annoying that people ask me what I'm writing, because they wouldn't even like it, and my sister keeps insisting that I'm wasting my time because I'm writing it and don't wanna publish it and whatever else, but I just write it to forget my days, because it's been so complicated and busy that writing is the only way to relieve my mind. I'm not over-reacting, am I?

    I know what you mean, it's always really sad to watch a long-time couple break up, but sometimes it's the only way out. and Frank sure doesnt need to be lied to anymore, right? but well, things will work out. maybe not perfectly, but they will, you'll see.

    and well, I'm already writing the next update. I dunno how long it'll take, because I don't have a established rhythm to write at the moment. Being at home means that there's always something to do or someone asking me what I'm writing, and I hate that. So I mainly just write when there isn't anyone around, which doesn't occur often. but i think that it'll come by tuesday, or wednesday, like it has been lately :)

    I'm sorry you haven't been getting the e-mails. Do you want me to comment on your profile every time I update? If you think it'll help, I can do that.

    Now. Thank you for your comment <3
    I know it's really sad, but it has to be. Gerard has been really mean to his husband, hasn't he, and to his daughter too, but the scale is kinda different because Frank's been honestly in love with him and has only been lied to. Also, I'm glad you fancied the flashbacks. I wanted them to fill in some of the blanks from those 14 years I didn't mention in betwen the stories, and also the first 4 years of their time together. I'm happy you liked them :D!

    YAY for vacation :D Well, my summer will be filled with taking care of my niece, since my sister hasn't been able to do it all by herself. I'm glad to help, though; Laura's such a sweet kid when she wants to, ha!

    What about you? You gonna celebrate the end of that Year 10? :D

    And thank you for the comment :D expect another update soon, either later this evening or tomorrow, since it's already done!

    HAI! :D
    Welcome back to the internet :D Well, it's not your fault that you couldn't come here, so I forgive you. And I thank you for the comment, it was really great. Things might not be okay for now, but I'll try to make you all smile in the end. That's a promise and a goal I want to keep for myself, as well.

    I hope you're doing well in school :D

    Haha, it could be done, but I don't have time tomorrow. It'll have to be Thursday, okay? It's just one day later. I'll even dedicate it to you, no problem :)

    My summer has been just like my winter and spring were. I'm still going to classes. I'm finally finishing the semester, so now I'm just usy with typing up essays and preparing oral presentations. But it's been easy so far, and these past few months have been surprisingly good, college-related, y'know? It's cool.

    Of course there will be more soon! There will be an update next Friday, or Wednesday, if I can't wait XD but don't get too excited, just because there's an update, it doesn't mean we'll get to know everything ;P
    And thanks for commenting :D!

    Apart from that. How have you been? <3

    Hi :D thanks for another comment on [i]In Health and in Sickness[/i]! It's important to know you're out there ;)

    I'm on a friend's computer now, she lets me use it at night, because she goes to bed much earlier than I usually do and we have access to free internet connection, because we live close to our school and all. it's cool, but I want my computer back by next nonetheless. I'm gonna need it for schoolwork *scared*

    And that's how my life has been, actually: writing, preparing for schoolwork and stressing over my computer. Fortunately, we'll have a national holiday on Thursday and I might have a chance to ask some friends if my computer can be fixed or not :D that's gonna be cool.

    Thank you for your comment :D I know it's been some days, but I haven't been able to come here. You see, my computer is completely fucked, it won't even turn on so I dunno when I'm gonna be fully back. The news, though, are that the updates will continue because I've got access to the internet in school. So expect something on Thursday evening, instead of Friday afternoon (Lisbon time) ;P you excited?

    And how have you been doing? <3

    Hai, thanks for another comment :D and for feeling what I wanted people to feel from this chapter. It's important that you realize what they are going through and that these choices aren't easy, but they need to be done. There's a deep emotional unstability in the story at the moment, but I plan to make it better. You'll see :)

    And well, I could post earlier, but I haven't oficially written the next update so I think it will be possible before Friday, I'm sorry :(
