Author's Notes: Thank you SO, SO much to all of the wonderful, amazing people who made this fic possible! All the love to capitu for the alpha, cheerleading, and general amazing encouragement and support for the past 2+ years of me working on this fic, to firethesound for the stellar beta work and for never flinching when I sent her revised scenes over and over to look through, to writcraft for the brit-pick and for taking on the massive responsibility of co-modding this fest with me, to shiftylinguini, my original artists, who unfortunately had to drop, but who provided some lovely encouragement and feedback on the first 2/3 of the fic, and, of course, to my artists, the brilliant and talented anokaba & pukingpastilles, who didn't hesitate to take on this mammoth fic for a pinch hit and who did such an amazing job bringing my scenes and characters to life.
