This story will be on a temporary hiatus, and here are the three reasons as to why:
1. The biggest reason as to why I didn't really continue my story is kind of a private matter, but without revealing too much, I went through quite tough three years. Now I am finally in a better state and I want to continue do arts (from writing, to drawing, to doing whatever creative stuff).
2. Attack on Titan has already ended years ago, and I don't know whether there is really an audience that would still want to read an Attack on Titan story (even if an Alternative Universe fanfiction). However, I did see increase in few views here and there, even when I was innactive, and even this year. I also saw some ten subscribers, and so even if there is no more big audience, and even if it were only for those 10 readers (but let's be real, for me mainly - since I don't reckon that anybody cares about my story-telling heh), I will re-write and come-back to this fanfic later - mainly because I still do love this story, and I do like the spin on it that I could do within this fanfic (which is why I love fanfics generally); also because even if I'll publish it in years, it would be quite nostalgic to come back to this, I reckon; and also because I just don't want to give up on my project, just because life gave me bad circumstances...
3. However, my comeback to doing art doesn't mean that I will do fanfics. While I and many smaller artists love fanfictions, mainly because we can express ourselves and our ideas within worlds that we already know and love; I want to do something more serious than a fanfiction, and something completely mine. So I want to start publishing my original webnovel, even if it were a shorter one, later this year, and than end it somewhen earlier in 2026 (but definitely before Summer).
If you are one of the 10 subscribers to AoT , and you just got a notification of an update for this episode, than don't worry - my next work that I'm currently working on will be, well, sort of like AoT (vibes? or at least the philosophy?)? Maybe not really (it will however be "Asian literature" hehe). It will be a Chinese-inspired webnovel (xianxia/xuanhuan/shenmo - don't know yet, but some form of Chinese Myth/Fantasy; and also baihe o.O).
And this AoT fanfic WILL continue (maybe later next year if everything goes right and I have nothing else to write, BUT if I would have a new idea for a new original series, than I would rather give my attention to that than this fanfic - in the worst case scenario, I would just relocate this fanfic to AO3).
Or maybe you don't care and I'm literally just talking to the void - that's also okay - I just wanted to set things clear (even if just for myself, and the peace of my mind).
If however you are anyone who DOES care - thank You for reading! I will try to be more active from now on. <3
