Full Author's note chapter here, fully skippable if you want to, I'm just gonna talk about the long space between recent chapters and stuff.

  Sooo yeah. 18 days is a new record for me.

  Just wanna make it clear that, no, I am not abandoning this. By no means is that my intention. I just needed a break, or more like I didn't really have the time to write, and when I did, I wasn't in the best headspace to do so. I got a lot of burnout from school and such, that didn't help.

  You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

  And yeah, preaching about depression is so overdone, but that also played a big part.

  So yeah, hopefully I'm back. Not gonna make any promises I'm not sure I can keep, though, about the release schedule n such.

  As for the story? Well, I also kind of messed up with that timeskip from the internships to summer. It was sort of an impulse decision that I made because I wanted to further the story.

  I now realize that I maybe didn't quite explain it that well, but the final exams did happen (they were the original ones with robots and such, not the new ones shown in canon.) Maybe I'll explain why later.

  Also, mental health... big topic in the background of this story. Hopefully it somewhat helps someone? Dunno.
