added more context to the fic's current status and deleted the part about the supposed rewrite because no link was provided and searching for one online turned up no results


Although it was popular when first released, it was eventually criticized for the poorer plotting it gained and the perceived over-emphasis on the romance later on. This may have contributed to its deletion in 2014. It was rewritten by a mod of one of the blogs who reviewed the original fic.
