Sorry for the delay, everypony. There were a few last minute edits that the team and I needed to spit out. But it's still going out on the right day, so I count that as a win in my book! This is it. The whopping 30 page finale to the very, very long story. I thank all of my loyal readers for sticking with throughout the whole run. I'd also like to thank my team for helping me through thick and thin, and always making sure that the story was in top form. It's been a long and bumpy ride,

As promised, and pretty much right on time, here's Ending 2! This one's the shorter one and more a bridge between Ending 1 and 3, but it does have critical details in it. As per usual, if you wish to stop at this ending, it's a perfectly fine stopping point, just like Ending 1 was. Well, if you ignored that little blurb at the end of Ending 1 anyway. Heeeeee.

Anyway, I hope everypony is having a good holiday season!

Happy Hearth's Warming, everypony! As promised, the first ending to Forgiveness Pending is no longer pending, and will instead be released in both stories in a moment! So those who dislike censorship, you know where to head. Not TOO much had to be censored for this ending, but it still had some language and violence.

Happy Hearthswarming Eve, everypony! Except for those where it's already Hearthswarming instead! I, and Team Pending, are going to give everypony a gift. We've worked rather hard, and the first ending for Forgiveness Pending should be in gear and ready to be posted on the 25th. Tomorrow! The second ending would then be posted on the 27th, and the third on the 29th, if the schedule holds true. I'm about 80% done with the third epilogue at this point, and should have it concluded by then,

Arg! Whoooops. Okay, so I'm still alive. Progress on working out the plothole has been annoyingly slow. Frustratingly so, even. I've basically had to completely restructure the entire third ending. Thankfully it didn't really effect the final epilogue of the story all that much. Just a few minor tweaks there, mostly to dialogues. I apologize for the slowness at actually informing everypony though. That's totally my fault. Mostly... I might have been a little distracted too...

Hello everypony! There's been a bit of a delay at the moment. I've hit a snag that's caused a serious disruption of Ending 3 in the form of a prior unnoticed plot hole that's been torn open in it. I'm forced to do some serious re-working of how Ending 3 goes, and the process is slowed down by a bit. I think I've almost got it worked out now, at least.

Yaaaay, I'm not dead! Mostly! I had a bout with a head cold that wasn't very pleasant at all. Still got writing done, but my will to log in and update everypony was shot. I'm sorry, all. I hope everypony is having a good day regardless. Here, have an update!

Aaargh, I'm sorry everypony. I didn't get the weekend update out like I wanted to. I might have gotten a little.... distracted.

Regardless, more writing is done, so have a nice status update!

Hullo everypony. Have a late weekend update as to the progress. Everything is moving along smoothly, although I don't have too terribly long to post. Julia is actually coming over in an hour or so and bringing the edit with her, so that should change reasonably soon. I just wanted to get this out before the weekend was up. Heh.

Hullo everypony! Sorry I'm late with the update, but here it is! Got a little distracted with a new game and lost track of time today. I was going to post this in the early afternoon.

Hello everypony! Kiro here with your weekend update! Today's going to be partly cloudy with chances of rain this morning, but clearing up to... oh, wait, yeah. Sorry!

Hullo everypony! I'm dropping by with a reminder that there aren't going to be any further updates to Forgiveness Pending until all three ending chapters and their included epilogues are written and proofed. After all three are done, they'll be released in rapid order, with only a single day's wait between each. Largely because the individual endings could be considered the mother of all cliffhangers, and I don't want to drive anypony absolutely ballistic with large wait times. I will be

...just kidding! Chapter 100 is going up in a few minutes! I also want to announce that I did some trimming, moving two chunks of storyline that didn't fit into the 'pacing' of the chapter into after-story stuff. Which means, this is the last and final official chapter of the story. Directly after this, we move into the three large 'ending' chapters.

Almost the hundredth chapter! This is the official start of the last arc of the story now. I estimate two to four chapters within it or so, and then the three endings. Each ending MAY have its own epilogue, but I haven't decided if I'm including it into the chapter or making it a separate post. Regardless, the updating once we hit the ending area is going to get a little wonky. I'm going to be writing all three endings up ahead of time, and then releasing them fairly fast, with one to two

Okay, got reports back from Julia. She's geared to get me the chapter back tonight, which means it'll go up tomorrow afternoon. Sorry for the delay, everypony! Also, this chapter marks us officially in the last arc of the story. I'm excited!

And it's here, as promised. Release 98. Two major chunks of canon altered in this one! They should be fairly easy to spot, so no spoilers here. I hope everypony enjoys this release, even if it's extremely late. Next release should be much better about that! It's coming up next week, on schedule still.

Okay then. Julia's going to be getting the chapter to me tonight, and I should be able to get it posted by tomorrow afternoon. The release date for the next one shouldn't be affected, so essentially, there'll be two weeks in a row of releases. I apologize again on the delay for this chapter.

This has been a bit of a strange week, but then again, everything may seem stranger when there's a spontaneous celebration of setting things on fire and causing explosions. Regardless, due to multiple surprise plans and a few I knew about ahead of time, my writing and the team's proofreading and pre-reading has been heavily hampered by the holidays, among other things. I'm not sure when the next chapter is going to be able to be posted this weekend, and might have to go so far as to move it

Hello again, everypony! It's late, but at least it's here still during the weekend! Not... counting all you ponies that are 3+ hours ahead of me. Anyway, no serious medical issues, and I'm actually doing fairly well at the moment, so I won't delay the chapter any longer than it needs to be! I hope everypony enjoys it. This is the chapter before the final story arc starts up, heading towards the finish line...

We seem to be making a habit of this. I got the file to my editor and proofreader late. I don't have it back yet, and it'll probably be up either Saturday or Sunday instead. It's a moderate length chapter this time, and the tie in before the next and final story arc. Anyway, I apologize again for the delay. It's just a normal delay this time rather than a Kiro Is Dead delay. Heh. Hope everything is going well for everypony, and I'll see you either Saturday or Sunday!
