I went to sleep, and woke up with:

notifications. Ok, normal.

People crying.

People panicking.

People yelling.

People being people.

People asking if it's the end.

Hahahahah.

hahahah.

hah.

WHAT THE HELL, PEOPLE? NO, IT'S NOT THE END.

Unless you can tell me, what all the mugs say, what was the secret that Nanami told Suga, why the fuck is she gone, why Suga did what he did, what happened with V and Jungkook, and numerous more things?

If you can, though, please don't. 😅

I want to say what my aspirations for vol.III are.

I want to make it darker. Like a lot. Smuttier. Like fucking filthy. Funnier. Like cackle out of a sudden in the bus because you remembered something. Heavier. Sadder. Fucking Intense.

If this isn't your cup of tea, you can always pretend it ended here and imagine your own ending.

Don't complain I didn't warn you.

As for what I want to make out of vol.III...

I'll try.

I have a few things in mind that I want to happen.

And I need time to make these things happen.

No, I won't make you wait two years again. I will continue updating normally.

I just need time to write each chapter, edit it, proofread it, correct it and sometimes, actually wait for the inspiration gods to visit me cause my brain is not a lemon that I can squeeze and come up with the perfect start on a chapter.

Being perfect has its price.

What you read every time is the work of many hours of insomnia, headaches, and caffeine.

It looks good and reads that way because I have worked on it countless hours and read it a fuckton of times.

And also, I have an actual, real, grown-up job to attend to, which is exhausting and time-consuming.

I wish I could be paid for writing, but until then, you will have to bear with my messy schedule.

I wish I could take the whole credit for Bloody Waves, but the truth is, Rain came to my mind out of fucking nowhere.

She was born out of an idea that my subconscious had, a need to write a character that is perfectly imperfect. An antihero. Someone admirable, someone that maybe when I was a little girl I would look up to, yet someone deeply flawed. It's the myth of what hides behind the perfect and strong image of what we see. How society has installed into our brains what we should be and how we should appear, and what we really are. And the answer is human. We are all flawed. And that's the beauty in it. The lesson is that we have to love ourselves the way we are before others love us.

And Rain is a big fuck you to all social standards.

The right person will love all your cracks and flaws. All your dark thoughts. Will stand with you through your dark days. Don't compromise. Don't hold back.

Be who you want to be.

Now for the Vol.III explanation.

The end of Vol.II marks that from now on, things are different. That there is going to be a big change.

I guess it's not a spoiler, the big change is that Rain is not Oyabun anymore.

And we have the joy to see how things are going to evolve.

Until then,

Comment here who is your favorite character from the book and why. <3

And tell me if you are listening to the music videos I put here and there. If no one does it, I might as well stop doing it. There is always a reason I put them there, but I have my suspicions, no one pays attention.

And just because I can't resist doing exactly the opposite of what I am supposed to, here's the song that started everything.
