Hey guys.  I just wanted to take a minute and talk to you guys about everything that's been going on and the future of this book.

So, as we're all aware, Woojin has left the group.  I made a post on my wall about it, but I figured I should address it here too.  Woojin leaving was so sudden and so shocking that I still haven't completley processed it.  I've bee sad, I've been stressed, I've just been overall extremely emotional, as I'm sure all of you have been as well.  Stray Kids is so special to me because they were the first group that I had followed since the very beginning.  Jae from Day6 tweeted about the music video for Hellevator, and normally I don't click on my twitter notifications, but for some reason I did that day.  I fell in love with them instantly and searched everywhere for information about them, then eventually stumbled upon the survival show.  It was so tough having to wait for a whole week until a new episode was released.  Having to sit and wait to see if they'd all debut together was one of the most agonizing waits in my entire life.

"7 or 9"

"9 or None"

When it was confirmed that all 9 of them would debut together, my heart never felt so full of love and care.  Now seeing that they can't be 9 anymore has been devastating.  I've been processing it as much as I can, but I just hate the feeling of having to accept it.  I know a lot of you guys feel very suspicious about the way it was announced, and that's perfectly fine, but we can't sit here and spread false rumours and speculations about the situation.  It won't make this any easier for any of us, and it definitely wont bring Woojin back.  Whatever happened, happened, and we need to accept that, as hard as it may be.  If we get an explanation from Woojin or JYP, then that's amazing, but if not then we need to respect that and accept the fact that we just won't ever know the full truth of what transpired.  The only thing we can do right now is be there for one another and for Stray Kids.  Something I've always loved about this fandom is that we all understand wha it's like to go through something.  Be it depression, anxiety, family problems or something else, we've all experienced it in some way shape or form, and we are all always there to comfort one another through our hard times.  That's what we need to be putting our energy into, not spreading false rumours and speculating about something we know nothing about.  So please, check in with one another, make sure you guys are there for one another because we will get through this.

Now, regarding this story.  After the crossover is finished, I will be putting the story on a hiatus.  I'm mainly doing this because I dont know for sure if i want to continue it or not, so I will need some time to think about it.  My other stories that are currently in the process of being written will continue as such, but because of how this story is formatted, I dont know if I would be okay with continuing it as is, so I think that putting it on a hiatus will be best.  I hope you guys can understand, and I sincerely thank you for giving this book so much love and support.  It really means a lot to me, especially considering what my thoughts and initial goals for this book were.  I'm so glad that I could provide a source of entertainment for you guys, and the fact that I've made so many friends and had so many cool opportunities just from this book alone amazes me.  Just know that I love you guys so much and that if you ever need someone to talk to, my messages are always, ALWAYS open.  I love you losers, and I'll talk with you soon <3
