so yeah. hi. it's 2024. i wrote this in 2022, and i literally had to come back and rewrite this ending chapter because i cringed at my old version of it. so hey. 

i actually considered taking this down several times, but i thought i should just keep it. i'm now well aware that most phases don't last forever, and while some of them are so extreme that they'll be a part of me and something i love till the end of time, like pjo, this is sadly not one of them. but i want to keep the memory of it. keep one thing from my old self alive. it's only been two years but i literally feel like a different human being. there's only like one person in this site that could get me to update this, but otherwise i highly doubt i will ever continue it. but thank you for the little support i've gotten on this. thank you to every single person who still responds to my comments from 2022 and says "omg you're literally everywhere" on leo valdez fics. thank you, wattpaders, for letting me be me. 

(its 2 am ill probably take this down in the morning but here it is anyway)
