Chapter Text
Hello, popping in for an update.
Not being constantly chased by deadlines has messed my mental health up, forcing me to confront my demons and all that jazz. Yes, I am still working on the chapter because - other than the aforementioned demons - I'm planning my family's self-healing vacation trip and hitting a writing block because I don't really agree with my outline anymore. Seriously, I've rewritten this chapter 6 times in a span of three weeks.
I'm actually posting this because I just saw the comment made by Sofia_Vep, thank you very much by the way for bringing it up to my attention and I know it's been ten days. I've been really busy but thank you.
Let it be known that I have no problem with translations as long as proper credit is provided, you've asked for my permission, got my approval, and then sent me a link because I want to support you too. What I do have a problem with is reposting this fic in another app or in another format. I am not comfortable with that and I sincerely hope that you respect this line that I'm drawing.
To the user who asked for permission to do a translation of this fic and post on Wattpad, I apologize that I did not respond to you. Honestly, at the time, I was still torn on if I wanted to consent or not. But that was August of 2023 (yes I have the email receipts), I was entering my last year of high school and my country's first school year in shifting back to full face-to-face classes. So the inquiry was pushed down my priorities and I forgot about it.
If you happen to be the same user that Sofia_Vep was referring to: again, I'm sorry for not responding to you. I looked into the Wattpad profile but I can't see a translated version of my fic there. So I'm not sure if there was some miscommunication or you deleted your work. I want to contact you directly so that we can talk properly. I'll provide a channel later on in this update chapter.
If you're not the same user: what's up? How you doin? Are you still here? Are you still interested? Lmao.
I had also gotten a comments asking to transform this fic into youtube format but they've since been deleted. In case those users are still reading this or others might have an interest to do so, please refer to paragraph 4 sentence 2 and 3. But if that wasn't clear enough: it's a no, I'm sorry.
With all that being said, I've set up a tumblr account where people interested in translating this fic can contact me directly and quickly. Also, it's a medium for you guys to reach me more easily because my gmail notifications for comments are wonky and replying using that is so... I associate gmail with school basically.
I ALSO saw fanart for the fic posted on tumblr. It passed by the dash of my personal account and I lost my mind. Hi @reyislikesotired! You guys should see it, it's very cute.
So hop onto tumblr, search @dajgen, send me a message, let's chat. For translation inquiries, fanarts, pandering me for updates (I work better under pressure sometimes), or just to talk because you can never have too many friends.
I will try to get the chapter up tomorrow but no promises because I need to pack up for the trip. Speaking of which, any tips about Japan travel?
