A little disclaimer that the title of chapter 41 isn’t actually “Happy New”…I just pressed publish too soon whilst choosing a title for it xD
          	The title is “A Toast to a Ghost” - and if you’re wondering what that’s about, why don’t you check it out for yourself? ✨

@FredlyTheBaguette Huh, that‘s weird - but at least it‘s still sending you some notifications at all :) I‘ll probably be updating my Insta Story in these cases

@ mxlkii_way  Ah the joy of publishing mistakes, my all time favorite (and good thing you also published this message cause my app doesn't wanna show me notifications for new chapters anymore, but it still does for messages somehow )

Some of you may have noticed that I just uploaded the old “Love Against our Roots” draft - which might be a bit strange considering that I’m just about done writing the new draft, but I guess I did get kind of nostalgic of my 14 y/o self’s writing XD Yes, the prose definitely showed room for improvement, but I had fun writing and I hope that I will forever love writing as much as I did then and do now

@ mxlkii_way  Oh yeah, I remember reading it all before it was taken down, ah the memories

This year‘s Victory Day seems more important than ever. It wasn’t supposed to be merely victory over fascism and nazism - it was also supposed to be victory over war. Despite the heart-shattering news from Russia and Ukraine, from Israel and Palestine or from India and Pakistan, I hope whoever is reading this does so in peace. Let‘s make sure history doesn’t repeat itself together - we won’t tolerate any more wars, any more senseless deaths. We have to use the means available to us to protect our future.
          Happy 80th Victory Day! Let us live together in peace ️

@mxlkii_way Happy Victory Day!!
            You're absolutely right, whenever I read the news these days I get more and more disappointed in humanity for not being able to learn a lesson just 80 years since it happened, and also scared for our future as well-
            Peace and love on the planet earth!

@ mxlkii_way  I also wished this day would have reminded people that nazis are not the good guy and shouldn't be voted for but huuuuh. Too hard for people not to do that apparently  What the hell is this timeline we're in

Heyyy...I guess you guys have noticed that I disappeared for quite a while. And it's about time I updated you on my whereabouts.
          
          I happen to be a very busy person at the moment - trying to juggle work, school, settling into my own flat and preparing for finals is by no means an easy thing. So I simply do not have the time to entertain you nor myself with social contact (@Reading_INTJ I'm sorry for keeping you on delivered or read so often) or writing. I'm afraid that to keep my sanity and keep a clear eye out for my goals, new chapters for Love Against Our Roots will arrive in this year's summer at the very earliest. I happen to have noticed that I am unsatisfied with the plot. 
          
          How about you guys? Having a somewhat-good time? I sure hope so, but if not, share your worries with me. Let's keep an eye out for each other and take care of ourselves! I missed you all so much and hope that you are hanging on. Summer is just around the corner, don't give up now!

I forgot to mention something that I probably should - you can read "Love Against Our Roots" on AO3 now! I decided to upload my works there just in case anything happens - so I would be delighted if you checked it out there as well. I'll be uploading it steadily, chapter by chapter, so that the readers on that platform also get it steadily.
          
          Here is the link. Enjoy!

I'm absolutely unsure rn, I've never had to do it so far, but imgur might work? I think some people upload it there and then jump from there

@FredlyTheBaguette You have to upload the pictures somewhere first - it's a problem I also had since I also had some pictures that I really wanted to include, like the drawings in Russia and West's letters, for example. I have yet to figured out where exactly to upload the pictures, but when I figure it out, I'll let you know if you want to :D

@ mxlkii_way  now that you are on AO3, can I ask you a question ? I also thought about maybe going there if Wattpad gets problems but one thing's preventing me. Is it possible to put pictures as covers or directly in the text ? Most my things, and especially my hc chapters work with bunch of images and it won't do if I can't make a similar layout on there.

Happy German Reunification Day! 
          
          Although this holiday is, nowadays, taken quite lightly and like it's self-explanatory, it really isn't as easy as we take it for. So, to all my fellow Germans - do not forget the history of your parents and your grandparents, and maybe even your great-grandparents, who lived through this. Although you might have had the fortune to grow up in the Western part of the country, others may not have had that fortune. So cherish this day. Cherish democracy. Cherish your freedom. (And don't forget to raise a huge middle finger to AfD <3) (⁠。⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧

I just noticed that I've reached 70 WHOLE FOLLOWERS! Thank you guys so much for the support? I honestly don't know how to thank y'all for the amount of positivity and motivation you guys spread and how I cam repay you guys!
          
          I could probably promise you another oneshot, but I already know that it will probably be the same as with the oneshot I promised between chapter 20 and 21 (aka I won't remember to do it in time) so - is there anything you guys would like to see? 
          
          I can, of course, still try to write some kind of oneshot at the expense of interrupting my regular posting schedule for "Love Against Our Roots" or draw something with the same expense. But it's all up to you because I have to be really grateful for you and all you helped me achieve. Thank you so much once more! (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡

I will update the previous chapters and every new chapter will now have a list with the trigger warnings in it! Since a few people have told me they'd also like to know what they'll be facing before each chapter, I decided to test it out for now. Let me know what you think! ^°^

EVERYONE GET READY cuz I'm starting to publish thw chapters 21 to 40 a week early ♪⁠~⁠(⁠´⁠ε⁠`⁠ ⁠)
          Enjoy the chapter in-between, "Katyusha", now! ✨

Istg if that causes any emotional damage again I'm suing you- just kidding, that's AMAZING news!
Reply

mxlkii_way

I know I promised I'd make up for the emotional trauma caused by the previous chapters in Love Against Our Roots by writing a wholesome oneshot...but I'm afraid that school and bookplanning took up so much time that I won't be able to write anything aside from what I already want to write. Please hold me accountable once I finish LAOR that I owe you a wholesome oneshot or two ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

mxlkii_way

@ Idiotic_Toast  Thank you so much! And oof honestly I don't know how to tell you hut I think even if the emotional load may be a little less at times between chapters 21-40...prepare emotional support snacks n tissues just in case ༎ຶ⁠‿⁠༎ຶ Can't wait to start posting again next Saturday! :D
