Wow. I have been gone for quite a long time huh?

I know most of you are really upset that I've taken this long to update the story, and have been PMing and leaving reviews about it. I feel pretty guilty about not having said much over the last while, and am taking this time to update you all on what has been going on so that you know what to expect from me and this story from now on.

1) The reason I've been gone:

Over this last period of time I've been gone, my life has gotten super complicated. Trying to maintain my job, a social life, a second job, a relationship, and this story was pretty hard, so I had to cut some things down. Mainly this story, the relationship, and the social life are gone now, as sad as that sounds. I know that's not fair to you guys, and I plan on fixing that, however, probably not in the way you're expecting. See next point.

2) What's different? What is going to happen to this and your other stories?

While my time is still pretty taken up, and I am actually looking for a third job now to help keep up with bills and the like, I do have some more time to dedicate to things again, and one of the things I've been wanting to do is complete a story here on FF.

"Queue the victory horns!"

Not so fast.. there's some things that are going to be different this time.

Firstly, as I am now back, I have changed. I am not in the same state of mind I was when I began writing Tsukiyomi and the other stories I've posted all that time ago. Back then, I was posting every few weeks or so at a time, and that put a lot of pressure on me to write when I had to be doing other things, so my time wasn't well spent. This time though, I am going to be changing up my formula, writing and adding on to the story at my leisure, preparing chapters in advance to post here for you guys to read and enjoy. This means I won't be taking ideas from reviews like other authors on this site, but doing strictly what I want to do with my story, which I hope you can respect. I will still welcome reviews with your predictions and what not as well, because I like knowing that my work is being appreciated, however, this grants me the freedom to explore myself and my writing as I want to; no restrictions.

That said, for the thing you probably care more about... What will happen to Tsukiyomi?

As I've stated before, I was in a different state of mind back when I started writing this, and I am feeling very different now about all of this. I can't even remember what chapters I had prepared for this story, and I have no desire to continue this story as it is now.

BEFORE YOU START RAISING YOUR VIRTUAL PITCHFORKS LET ME EXPLAIN!

I know there is a very large lack of Fem. Itachi x Naruto stories here on FF, and it's very sad. It's a pairing that is super rare, and rarely executed well enough. I'd like to think I was headed in a good direction with this story on that end, but looking at it now I think I can do something better than what I have here. I spend my time reading a lot of fanfiction on this site, and there are pairings and ideas that I would love to see explored, but no one else is on the same wavelength, so I have to plan that out myself, and I haven't had time till now so that's been pretty frustrating. That said: I am putting this specific story up for adoption. If you are interested in continuing it, PM me and we can discuss it. I'm not just going to let anyone start it up again however, but I do want to see what people think they could do with it.

I, on the other hand, will begin writing a new fanfic, and I will give you a taste of what I'm thinking right now to see if it's something you'd be interested in:

As I have changed over the last while, I have gotten more mature, and have been thinking more on my life, and themes prevalent in it. How much my family means to me. How hard it is to find love, and maintain it. Loyalty to those who deserve it. How hard it is to regain trust once broken. Etc. These are all things I'd like to explore, and possibly with the following:

Mature/Older Naruto with older/mature partners, in a world that is much more realistic than that of the cannon Naruto universe, with new powers and my outlook on things. How I think they should be.

For those of you worried about not having enough FemItaxNaru for your liking, I am heavily considering using that pairing for the new story I have in mind.

That's it for my last update here on Tsukiyomi. I hope you all stick with me and someone fitting approaches me to adopt this fic.
