Hey howdy hey, resident trashcan here.

I'm going to be frank and say that this isn't a chapter (I know, I'm sorry) but more of an explanation of where I've been these past two years since I've updated last. There's honestly been so much that if I gave you a play-by-play of my life it would be a normal chapter length bunch of sad. But I'll give you a tl;dr of everything because I think after this long you all deserve to know.

The thing that started it all was the flash-drive I was saving this story on got corrupted literally as I was backing it up to my new laptop and I lost everything on it. So not only did I lose this story and most of my plans for it, I also lost all of my college work from my freshman and sophomore year. I couldn't get anything back.

Then as I was moping about that other fandoms kinda hit me over the head. One Piece was the first, which I hadn't gotten into before then, and I took the time to plan out a story for that just so I could get the idea out of my head. Other fandoms were Haikyuu, Game of Thrones, and now My Hero Academia.

Outside of fandoms college was college. I have one summer class left, which I'm taking this summer, and I'll officially have graduated. I've already moved back home and will (unfortunately) not be moving out for the foreseeable future. But I guess that'll just give me more time to try and write.

I've also been on one of the longest emotional train wrecks of my entire life, where there have been too many ups and downs to count, and probably more downs than ups. Depression and anxiety have been kicking my ass for I don't even know how many months now and I find it difficult to deal with half the time.

But I want you all to know that I haven't given up on this story, and that even after all this time it's always been in the back of my head, never forgotten. With today being the 75th anniversary of D-Day I want to get myself back into writing this story. I don't know exactly where I wanted to go with this, but I do remember key points I wanted to write, so hopefully those will guide me as I begin again. I'm going to re-read everything I've already written, go over the books I was referencing, find the notes I still have, and re-watch the series. I want to write more as much as you want to read more, trust me.

I also want to thank all of you who have read and reviewed so far, all of you who I have talked to about this story, and all of the new people that are even just now joining. I read all of your reviews and take them all to heart, it honestly makes me so happy to see that people still want me to continue this story after so long.

I know with your words I can find the motivation again to update with an actual chapter. I don't know when that'll be but it will happen, I swear.

And, well, that's all I really have to say.

Duces.

Trashcan out.
