(FEEL FREE TO SKIP THIS AND GRADUALLY COME TO KNOW THE CHARACTERS AS THEY COME ABOUT IN THIS STORY! THIS IS JUST SOMETHING I WANTED TO INCLUDE FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE INTERESTED IN KNOWING WHAT'S CHANGED BEFORE COMMITTING TO READING THIS FANFIC FOR WHATEVER REASON!)

I didn't feel as though I could even attempt to write Connor Murphy as well as Benj and Justin did, nor did I have confidence in my ability to convey Mike Faist's nuanced performance through my words, so I decided to have this take place in a universe where he failed an attempt and ended up getting help. He's not completely cured by any means but he's taking his medication, gotten clean, discovered his love for dance, sorted things out with his father, and apologized to Zoe. She didn't accept the apology mind you but who knows, one day she might be able to see Connor as her brother, rather than the 'monster' she grew up with. He's grown to settle as a pessimistic introvert with less anger and more charm. As well as all this, Connor is courageous, passionate and curious, though he would never admit it out loud.

Evan has grown up considerably as well. There came a day when he decided he couldn't keep lying to himself, his therapist, or Heidi. After confessing during a weekly session that he let go, he was given the option to attend an outpatient or inpatient service. Heidi's work schedule decided he would be better off in the inpatient. It was there that he discovered his love for theatre, joining his schools drama group and becoming acquaintances with the whole lot! His theatre-family got him through high school and helped him flourish, he started to excel in school as his mood improved and things got easier to handle. Though he is still facing problems today, his improvement bagged him a scholarship to the University of Michigan! The night they found out, Evan ordered take-out for Heidi and him, and as a surprise, decided to answer the door himself. He still has trouble making friends and being put on the spot, but he's learned that everybody makes mistakes and he is worthy of the love that he receives, and if nothing else, at least he's himself and that's enough.

((First chapter in the works, expect it by December 4th 2017, I want to have the first three ready in the hopes that it can help me stick to a regular uploading schedule during the exam/holiday season! What do you think of this idea? Is there anything else you want to know? Leave a comment and I'll get back to you as soon as possible! Slán!))
