This probably won't come as a terrible shock to most of you who have followed this fic and know that I haven't updated it in a good long while (particularly, updating and focusing on Fellows over Rain.), and it certainly won't be a shock to Moczo or DezoPenguin, since I talked to them both a fair bit before figuring this was the best thing to do.
At this point, Into the Rain is a dead fic. I didn't want to admit it for awhile because I thought I could go back to it, but not only is my writing spark for it gone and has been gone for awhile, it would have been a pain in the ass to write in its current form. Unfortunately, when I started this particular story I fell into my bad habit of jumping into the idea before I planned out the specifics of it, and as a result I would have ended up copying and pasting large chunks of Heaven's Feel as Rain progressed, with the only real change being that Rin was Sakura's lover instead of Shirou. I could go back and do a rewrite of it, but as of right now I have no desire to do so, despite my love for the Sakura/Rin pairing.
(I probably could have, admittedly, done more with the Saber plot line, but unfortunately I didn't think that through much either. I put it in because it was an interesting thought regarding Saber I've always had since she became Alter in Heaven's Feel, but it ultimately wouldn't have gone anywhere.)
The story's been taken down from FF.net (because I hate leaving an unfinished story on my account, I'm anal like that.), but I'll leave the thread here intact so that no one loses the posts they made in that thread.
I will, of course, continue to write more Sakura/Rin, so don't worry about that.
Thanks for reading and enjoying the fic while it lasted, all of you.
