Hey All. Some of you may be wondering why I haven't continued this story and I decided to post an update and explain why.
My mom passed about a month after I started writing this and 3 weeks before my 18th birthday (June 28th, 2017). I, of course, attempted to continue, as seen in the slight edits I made to my grammar. But, after a while, I just couldn't do it. My mental state has been plummeting ever since. I'll be 23 soon, yet I still am unable to function somewhat normally, like the way I did before her death.
Now, I still have the "script" for how the story is supposed to go. It's in the drafts. Plus, it's been ingrained in my memory. I'm hoping at some point in the future that I'll be able to finally finish this story and publish it.
The reason why I chose Markiplier as the subject of this story is because he, just like my mother and like for a lot of other people, is my safe haven. A person I look to when I am in need of support, emotional safety wise and anxiety reducer. My mom was taken from me and Mark had gone to the hospital a few days after she had her cancer diagnosis and I felt like everything that I loved was being taken from me again. I needed to vent
Thank you all for understanding and being patient with me. In the meantime, I recently wrote a new creepy pasta of sorts called Sonic Genesis. Feel free to give it a read and let me know what you think.
