UPDATE 18/1/2019

This is just a quick announcement that I'm going to delete at a later date, but it was brought to my attention by reviewer DeepWound78 that the rating of this story was not suitable for the story's content. Thank you for bringing this to my attention DeepWound, because I was sure I had changed the rating, but apparently not. I'm posting this update chapter because this was the only was I could make contact with you.

That being said, I've upped the rating for K+ to Teen now. I've not been frequenting Fan Fiction as much as I have AO3 recently, and I feel like the latter's tagging system has spoiled me as an author. The tags on AO3 are far more transparent and considerate of potential triggers, though I'm going to review my story and retag for anything I might have missed on there too.

If anyone reading You Only Tell The Truth has found the misleading rating and content within the story upsetting, I sincerely apologise. It was not my intention to mislead you, or to place you in a position of discomfort.

Thank you again to everyone who has taken the time to read and review on this story. I must apologise again for my negligence, and will ensure not to make the same mistake again.

EDIT 20/05/2019

Hooo boy it's finally happened! The first(?) negative review of YOTTT! I'm actually kind of grateful for it, y'know? As this was from an anon reviewer I can't PM and converse with them that way. So I'm going to leave their comment here and respond in kind, just in case they ever decide to revisit YOTTT (which I find unlikely). I'm not starting anything, I don't want any drama, I just want to unpack their review and try and clarify a few points.

"Straight up, this is stupid. All of it. A sh*t ton of angst, a sh*t ton of "waaaaah,

I can't do anything because reasons", and with how you made the quirk and people act rather than react,

this story is sh*t. I can't bring myself to even read chapter 3 or more. It sucks."

First of all, thank you for your comment, anon reviewer! Any feedback is much obliged because it helps me in the future. It would be better if you weren't anonymous so we could discuss writing, because you could quite have literally helped me to improve this story's flaws if that were the case. Yes, I acknowledge that this story is flawed. This is what happens when you write something spontaneously and don't have the plot/research/time to develop it. There are gaps. It reads back in a way that is disjointed. The tone changes every other chapter because I took huge gaps between writing and publishing each chapter (to be fair, I was writing my Undergraduate Dissertation at the time).

Angst is really difficult to write, and I respect authors who can. So are AU's. AU authors walk a very delicate line because they have to convincingly hold the canon world hostage and superimpose their own rules and ideas over that world. Sometimes it works really well and the story is well received. Sometimes it is universally hated. Sometimes it is an experiment and there are mixed reviews. You Only Tell The Truth, for me as an fic author, was the latter. An experiment. I do not write angst. I write mainly for comedy and romance. So yeah, the story is going to be stupid, and melodramatic, and quite possibly a load of poop, because I have no prior experience writing for the angst genre.

As for not liking what I'm doing with characters, Quirks, and actions, that's okay. You do you. YOTTT was a test to see if I could write something more serious, and later that same year I wrote Orbit and started Late Hero Academia. I'm glad that you decided to jump ship after a certain point, because if the story doesn't appeal to you it is fine to do so. I do it all the time; if I don't agree, like, or find something interesting, I'm not going to read it entirely. What I don't like is that you chose to degrade what has been written, and I most certainly hope that you don't comment on other author's works in a similar manner. I'm not young and impressionable. I'm not just starting out on FF or AO3. Other people are not in that position; they could just be posting their first fic, so I hope you don't choose to belittle their writing if you find it to be 'sh*t'.

A lot of writers are nervous about posting what they write. Maybe next time you could back out gracefully if you don't like a story, or perhaps you could word your comment in a more constructive manner? I'm always open to conversations about writing, and I accept PM's and reviews - both good and bad. So, thank you once again for your review!

To everyone who has commented on, favourited, and followed this story, thank you so much for your support.
