I'm now writing a rather dark, angst-heavy story that will *not* have a happy ending. The angsty people will be happy

Damn right we will be...lol. Those two are my favorite types of stories, angst and dark fic and you're doing both...score! Can't wait to read that. And you're very welcome, you deserve all the praise, you're a wonderful writer and I wouldn't comment if I didn't like your stuff, so thank you for always honoring us with your work.
