Hello everyone, it has certainly been a long time.

First, I would like to apologize for taking so long to update. My main excuse is that my real life caught up to me, as well as other stories that dragged my attention away. For example, most of the time these days, my writing time is taken up by a Persona 5 story or a Fire Emblem story. If you are interested in either fandom, I would happily invite you to read those stories, as I am very proud of them.

That is not to say, however, that I have forgotten about this story. In fact, Gry21, your last review pushed me to BEGIN the next chapter. As of this moment, that chapter has 3,601 words and is at least a third of the way done, if my memory is correct. However, writing entire episodes with very little changes can be tiring after a while. So, I took a break and then was distracted by my life and other stories. It was sometime after that, that I buckled down and began to seriously write my Persona story as a stress reliever.

However, there is another reason I have not updated, which is the reason for this note. I understand that I have taken a long time to update. However, I would like you all to know that reviewing as a guest and demanding to know why I'm not updating and using language such as 'why the f**king hell' in a review such as that turns me away from updating. Seeing those reviews in my inbox is not something that I find joy in. And I am now moderating all guest reviews so reviews such as those will no longer be allowed. I'm sorry it came to this for those of you who did not speak that way to me.

I can promise, however, that I will work out a system so stories that I give less attention to will start getting attention. I don't know how effective the system will be, but I will do my best to adhere to it. If all goes well, there should, key word being SHOULD, be an update to Balance by the end of November. But I do not make any promises, so if I do not update then I'm sorry.

I hope you all understand because I truly do appreciate the reviews I receive and I do love this story and the characters I created for it. I have already written an entirely original mini arc for the Kyoshi Island episode that I am excited for you all to see.

So, for now, I will say goodbye and hope to see you all soon.
