Alright, bitches. I'm back.

So, story time. It's just after dinner. I'm a bit angry with my parents who are arguing. They ask me to bring down a bunch of crap for them to clean when I was about to start the mission. In a flash of fury, I smash a glass I was holding against another.

I got incredibly lucky, and only cut into the space under my thumb of my right hand. About 3 hours of waiting in the ER later, and 3 stiches, and I'm back to 90%. Needless to say, I learned an important lesson today, but it wasn't fun. But I'm okay, thank God, any other deity you may worship, or ... I dunno, something. The goodness of mankind? *laughs*

I'm sorry that happened Gem, hope you get back to 100 soon :)

Have Emily help create an elaborate rumor about how he had her and Luxuria and Nika all at the same time, and when everyone's like wow that Fox is such a stone cold player, she watches him get mauled by a ton of chicks hotter than her and she says

Holy shit a colab between me and Zombie at this late time, I wonder what the hell it is!



It is more Dessy/Tiala fanfic, what did you think it was?

Anyways, it has been a long day for me as you can imagine. I really do hope you guys enjoy what me and Zombie did, it took a while to get the ending right but I would like to think it worked the way we wanted. I will give people sometime to read it before I state anything without a spoiler for the moment so don't read this if you haven't read, I am telling you it will ruin the experience.

I may just be stating the obvious but yes, Cheif, Bull and Hawke staged the whole thing. Hawke's reaction to Eve was real, he was genuinely surprised at her, Chief knew he had to look like he was going after Eve so Bull could knock him out. The Elites are a close knit group of brothers and as Hawke said, they will move the Earth for their brothers. Hate the ending, love the ending, in my opinion, it works this way and I honestly cried. I am not a crier for those who don't know so for me to cry like this...yeah, speaks a lot more to the depth Me and Zombie delved into these characters. (Also to add a little comedy to this emotional roller coaster, the Elites are offering a bounty for Sam's mouth and Brent's balls!)

That was awesome! Heartfelt, sweet, amazingly written, and just, wonderful... I do still hold by my opinion that having Fox break up with Eve would be better for the two of them individually. This is much better for them as a couple, Eve knows how much she fucked up and hopefully won't do this kind of thing again. It takes a strong person to overlook what Eve did, or, almost did. I think it would've been interesting if Fox confronted Eve with the help of the elites though, maybe even stopping her from killing herself, I don't know, I just like the idea of the shy one swallowing his fear and approaching her because he knew how much she loved him and that she would never hurt him.

I think it was great. Very heartfelt, and you stayed true to the characters. Even though Fox being like "I gave you a chance and you blew it" would be more viscerally satisfying, we all know Fox doesn't have the heart (or the life experience) to just walk away. Now we just have to hope his optimism doesn't get him burned again (at least not before we win the game). Eve's full core meltdown also made her very hard to hate despite her extracurriculars.

Thank you both for the words, now that I have had a good nights rest and am thinking clearly, I can truly step back and appreciate what we did.
I tell you though, it took a bit of time for me to reach a decision on to how to deal with the situation. I had so many different routes to go down it was very hard to choose one, but in the end, I took time to read back on the posts between Fox and Eve up to that point and as much as I knew Fox telling Eve he didn't want a relationship would had been satisfying for us irl, it wouldn't have done with them, that would have been an unjust ending to these two great characters. Honestly, after only a short time after Regret was put up, I went to Zombie and proposed a colab even though it was late where I lived. I wanted to get into it while the emotions were still high and I didn't have a night's sleep to think about what to say because that isn't what Fox had done. So...thank you all for the support once again, glad you loved it, I know I did. Now here is a question though, how many people where surprised by the epilogue? I tired to not make it too obvious and also not have it come out of nowhere. Though maybe now Chief and co. have to convince Aya not to be mad anymore...Doesn't say more so that plans that have not been made yet may be made in the future.

Four things:
- As the other person in this collab, I was surprised. I wish my brothers were that devoted
- By 'a bit of time', he means he had me waiting in suspense for, like, at least a half an hour, and then that one line... like I said, I left it up to him, but my heart dropped.
- I know a few people might be disappointed, but for me at least, there was a natural flow to this one, and the out come was believable. And I was playing the Eve close to heart. While I've never cheated on someone, come close to cheating on someone, or... really had anything resembling an opportunity to cheat on someone, I have a lot of empathy, so I put myself in her shoes and wrote they way I believed I'd feel after hurting someone I loved.
- And finally...
