Little Bird Blob Update

1. I hope you’re ready for chapter 10, because I’m not. :D

2. Yes, I’m more than a bit nervous about this chapter, and again unsatisfied, but it contains some important developments & points that are inevitable, needed & fixed—it’s not like I can skip it and move on just because I feel I can’t get it exactly right!—so, please, bear with me; I hope you will enjoy it for what it is.

3. Planning on posting it tomorrow or Thursday, depending on how many times I will try to rewrite it in the meantime and how I will stop myself from doing so.

4. Basically this is the last chance you have to place bets and speculate on what is going to happen next, so… tell me. Tell me now.

5. Not much to disclose about future chapters yet but I’m working on them.

6. I didn’t post about it at all here (I think?) but I did post a fluffy AruAni oneshot last week! It’s called Stoves and I dedicated it to @moonspirit since she asked for AruAni kiss… a few times.

7. In the end, we just wanted an AruAni hug; why didn’t you give it to us, Yams? T_T

8. Jokes aside, I hope you’re all doing well. See you soon with Little Bird!
