So the last time I updated was like...September, of 2017. Yeah, sorry about that. I don't really have any excuse, I guess I just fell away from writing. Although I'm constantly thinking about it, I just haven't found the passion again. I can't say for sure if I'll ever come back, or how consistently I would update even if I did. To anyone who, for whatever reason, is checking my profile for updates, all I can do is apologize. It's unlikely that I'll come back to my previous works, as they really don't hold up to my current standards. "Listening to the Apocalypse" is the only one that even has a tiny chance, since I was planning to re-write it a long time ago. It's also rather unlikely that I'll really ever start anything new in the fanfiction community.

Again, my apologies for being so flaky. I truly wish that I still had the passion to write fanfiction, but the hard truth is that I don't. Maybe I'll find it again one day, but there's a strong likelihood that I won't.

My existing stories are not up for adoption, and never will be. Although they may not match up to my current standards, they are still mine and I hope people can respect that.

Below is my small list of things that I had been planning to work on awhile back for my return, but obviously never got around to doing.

Stories currently being "worked on":

• Listening to the Apocalypse (Rewriting) [Naruto]

- Female OC lead

- Adventure, action, and humor

- Depiction of blood, gore, and extreme violence

- Warning: Explicit adult themes (There will almost definitely be lemons down the road when the characters are older)

- Heavy AU that will only get progressively further and further away from canon, I have made various changes to the world, certain characters, the timeline, etc. While it is still initially based in canon, you should expect it to deviate heavily from the canon storyline.

- Seriously this is going to be M rated FOR SURE. If you're not cool with that, you should definitely not read it. Of course the worst of it will come later and there won't be much graphic stuff while the main characters are still little kids, but beware. I would love for everyone to give this a chance once I release it, but if you're faint of heart you should be careful. If you make the decision to keep reading once the story really starts progressing, I am not responsible.

• Dreamer [Pokemon]

- Adventure, action, and humor

- Generally T rated for occasional adult language, limited blood, and a pretty decent amount of violence mostly between Pokemon.

- I'm always kinda working on Dreamer, but until I actually post anything it shouldn't be considered a true work in progress. I've got a lot of ideas piled up and about 9k words written for the first chapter, but it's all so uncertain and constantly changing that I don't feel comfortable saying that it's currently being worked on.

- It's important to note that although I haven't officially decided, mega evolutions will most likely be a non-factor. Although I have no issue with it as a game mechanic, I don't really like it for a story like this. This also stands true for other central power up mechanics like Z-moves and Dynamax. If a function like this is introduced to this story, it will most likely be something that I come up with.
