Chapter 15 A/N

Ugh, this chapter.

There was a lot of future plot things that I needed to set up in this chapter. And that was the biggest hurdle I had because I wasn't sure what route I wanted to take.

If you visited my blog over the past year or so- you know I decided to go crazy and write a rough draft of AtO till the final chapter. The draft is terrible and needs ruthless revising and editing but it helped me decide which plot points I liked better.

Speaking of editing, this chapter's editing was... an experience.

Maybe I was just super out of practice with editing AtO because it took embarrassingly long to get through even one page of this chapter.

On top of that I cycled between two different docs, one that I had written much earlier. So some conversations that are friendly in the earlier draft is completely different from what I wrote in the newer version of the chapter.

Having to read through and merge conversations was tedious but I think overall it came out rather well. If nothing else, I hope that my writing quality has improved and is more noticeable.

Now onto chapter specific notes- of which I don't really have a lot of.

There's Something about Neji (Part 2)

Still struggling with a lack of free time for fanfiction, but I had a flash of inspiration to do some snapshots for this verse- which, in case you haven't read, is my take on the question “If AtO had any romance and Harry ended up with a male, who would it be?"

Here's Part 1. Beware of this post being unedited.

A Birthday Surprise

A little post for Naruto's birthday.

As Naruto opened the apartment door, a wave of fragrant perfume filled his senses. Naruto stepped back and closed the door in confusion as he looked around. 

“I told you the flowers were a bad idea.”

Naruto frowned and leaned closer to the door.

“It wasn't the flowers that scared him off, it was that outrageous cake.”

“Outrageous?” Another voice retorted with clear indignation.

“Now will you all listen to me and let me go with my initial plan?”
