So, when I said it was gonna be long, I did not exactly have 8k words in mind, but... A long somewhat wholesome chapter is always nice, right?

All this to say, chapter 9 is out!! 🥰

[messtrudi]

So little update...

This chapter will be long, and I'm working on it every day!

I hope I can get it out before the finale, still, to bring a bit of fluff before all the angst of Arcane 🥹

Also little spoiler for Arc 2 ahead, so proceed with caution 👀

I am now definitely writing my baby Isha into the tangled au 😭 I need to heal my broken heart 💔

Trust that she'll be safe and fine and happy in this au and introducing her in the next chapter would fit so well, too!!!!

It's fate!

[messtrudi]

The tangled au is baaaackkkk! 🥳

[messtrudi]

So... I might have forgotten the announcement of chapter 7 😅 I'm very tired...

Anyway, chapter 8 and therefore the final chapter of the modern au is out and I can finally rest 🥳

(just kidding... No rest for the people who still have unfinished fanfictions to take care of 🫠 already working on the next chapter of tangled au, don't worry folks)

[messtrudi]

Chapter 6 whoohoo!

Only two more to go after that 🥳

[messtrudi]

More chapters of the modern au!!!

And yes plural, because I've uploaded the backstory chapter plus the chapter that was supposed to be released anyway. ✨

[messtrudi]

I almost forgot, but I uploaded chapter 3 of the modern au! 😅🥳

Nothing more to say here, everything I might have to say is already in the chapter notes. Have fun! ✨

[messtrudi]

As promised, chapter 2 of the modern au is out! 🥳

Gonna put the question here as well:

I have thought a lot about what the backstory in this modern au would look like and while I'll get into some of it in later chapters, there is a lot more that I wasn't able to mention...

So, for the sake of making things maybe less confusing (I don't know, it might not even be that bad):

(Why is the only option for a poll one day or week?

Why is there nothing in between?)

[messtrudi]

The modern au is done and out!!!!

The first chapter at least xD different from the tangled au, I have this one fully written already, so I'll go ahead and give you the schedule for the full release over the next few weeks:

(edited)

18.10 - chapter 2

21.10 - chapter 3

23.10 - backstory chapter (as chapter 4) + chapter 5

26.10 - chapter 6

29.10 - chapter 7

01.11 - chapter 8 (finale)

I hope you'll like it because I do and I don't say that often 🥲

(as for the tangled au, I'll try to get another chapter out this month as well. At least now I'll be able to focus on it again 😅)

[messtrudi]

Another sort of update:

I'm getting to the end of the side project! Hopefully I'll finally be done by the end of the week. (This has gotten so much longer than expected, I thought it'll be a nice 10k one shot, but now I'm working my way towards the 30k words mark...)

So either my brain needs a break by then or my workaholic ass just switches back to the tangled au. Either way, I think I can get something out next week.

I'll either put out the first portion of the modern au that has consumed my waking and sleeping day or another update on the tangled au. We'll see 😅

(also no, I have no idea why I could work on the modern au three weeks straight, writing 30k words, when I only wrote one chapter per month (and not even that really) for the tangled au so far... My brain works in mysterious ways and I apologize on its behalf.)

[messtrudi]

Hi... Taking ages to remember that I wanted to give updates, as usual xD

Well, I am writing... just not on the tangled au 😬

I found some old timebomb fanfictions I wrote two years ago and one had me going "damn, this is good", sooooo... I am currently writing on that. Editing what is there and finishing it. 👀

The next chapter of the tangled au is about half written, but my stupid brain rather works on the other one and who am I to argue with it?

I'm really sorry for the delay... Again 🥲

[messtrudi]

It's here!!!!!

It's a bit shorter than the last few chapters, but I still think it turned out nice (＾▽���)

[messtrudi]

August ain't over yet!!! I'm on it! 😅

Next chapter is probably gonna be out on the 31st because ... Work... Or rather my boss bullying me for some reason and me having way too many mental breakdowns 🥲

But that's not gonna stop me! It did make me incredibly slow, though...

But! I did promise a chapter by the end of the month, so you'll get it... Exactly by the end of the month xD

(I'm really sorry about being so slow, and I know that it's probably fine, but it doesn't just bother me because I feel like letting people down, it also bothers me because I want to write so badly, but my stupid mental health takes priority ☹️)

Anyway, short story long, the chapter is done. Has been for quite a while if I'm being honest 👀 all that's left is editing it and making it ✨ readable ✨

So I'll be doing that hopefully tomorrow, so that I can finally upload it and move on to the part I've been waiting to write for months.

I really hope you had a much better month of August, stayed hydrated and didn't melt into the floor 💜💚🫠

[messtrudi]

Back on my bullshit! 🤗

Meaning, there's finally a proper update!

So I wrote something, but the next scene proves to be harder than I expected xD

If work (so my day job) remains slow and low-key boring the next few days, I might get the next chapter out sooner rather than later. If not, however, and I actually need to do something, it could still take a little. (It really depends very much on the amount of free thinking time I'll get)

Either way, this is the month! It's coming sometime in August, for sure ❤️ pinky promise

[messtrudi]

So... After my neighbors have finished their construction, I had to catch up on some sleep and then only had a few good days before I got stung by a wasp two days ago. 🤕

I'm fine, but my arm is still swollen, so writing won't be a thing for a few more days, which also means I won't be able to get out a chapter this month, even tho I desperately wanted it to happen 😔

Anyway, as soon as my arm will allow, I'll get back to trying to get the next chapter out. 🤗

[messtrudi]

Long Time, finally an Update...

Well, I wanted to wait for some good news but I don't really have some. My neighbors had the great idea to start construction on their roof at really unholy hours every day and I have not been sleeping well 🥲

Energy is running low, which is why I haven't been writing for two weeks.

I have something of a beginning on chapter 7, but not a lot. I'll try to write a bit whenever I feel up to it and just hope these people get their shit done anytime soon 🔥

[messtrudi]

Chapter 6 is finally posted!!! 🥳
