Author’s Note: So, this fic hasn’t turned out at all like what was in my head. All of my bad writing habits came back in this fic – probably an unfortunate side effect of how it would constantly get sidelined by other projects. Hopefully I can fix them during the editing period, if not, well… sorry? Also, if you've read my stuff before you should know I have perennial problems of taking far too long to get to the point.
Honestly it probably needs a rewrite from the ground up, but that’s not a time and effort commitment I’m willing to make. I struggled with characterisation a fair bit too, hopefully it came out okay. You would think that since I've written plenty of FF7 before it would be easy by now, but it isn't.
Heads up, there will be slash. Consider that warning for people since I’ve been enjoying writing gen for quite a while. As for the slash aspects, it turns up a bit later in the story, and isn't particularly graphic (as fair warning for those here only for smut, you'll probably be disappointed.) I actually think this story suffers the opposite problem I normally have with fics – for once the pairing is the point, but all this other stuff gets in the way and distracts from it.
Um, I shouldn't really be writing post-mortems before I start, especially since there's a lot of writing and editing left to go, but I know people have their fanfic pet peeves so I thought it good manners to throw those out there. Hopefully you can enjoy the fic regardless.
Updates will be weekly for now. Might be able to improve that later, but am playing it safe. Have totally bitten off more than I can chew this year.
Also, thanks to Little House in the Woods for her beta services!
