Haha, I'm sure you have. I haven't written anything in awhile though. Yea, I used to love writing too, but for me, comments let me know just how good of a writer I was or wasn't. I once came in top place out of a few classes back in middle school after we had some writing contest. My work got read to the class 90% of the time in creative writing in high school.
So yea, I thought I was a great writer. Until I stopped receiving as many comments on here. Then my writing kinda died. I was extremely sad that nobody seemed to like my stuff. So, I just read instead.
Not going to lie, the story sorta was dead before the last update, and then, of course, I very nearly let it die once again. But it's back to life now, and hopefully you'll be able to pop back onto Mibba again at some point and see what's new and happening. I have every intention of finishing this story, because it's been such a monster that I've been working on for so many years, and even when I'm struggling with bandfic or writing in general, I just absolutely adore these beautiful broken little babies far too much to ever let them rot away in the corner, completely forgotten. I know where this story is going, even if I don't have every step of the journey planned out just yet, and I can't wait to see them make it to the finish line. I hope you get to see that as well, since you've been with this story for so many years now, and I hope the eventual ending does not disappoint.
For the record, I think you're the only person that expressed any concern for Rick after the last update (or, you know, ever, since that was really his only actual appearance in the story). I mean, no one's saying the guy's a great person, or anything, but he definitely hasn't had it easy, that's for sure. We'll see some more of him in future chapters, so you can see if your concern for him lasts long. (;
Aaaand I have to admit, I'm super curious to know what you think Ava's feelings for Zack are right now, given what she's said lately and how she's been acting. I'm never entirely sure how Ava comes off to people, since she's such an odd combination of incredibly competent at lying but also, she's always so sure that she's being perfectly transparent and everyone else can read her mind and know what her true intentions are.
Once again, thank you so much for commenting on the story; it means so much to me to know that you're still looking forward to seeing what happens, and your comments truly do breathe life back into this story every time I read them. Thanks again! (:
