  1. The Long Road Home has loads of stolen content and the author is a total narcissist. The writing is ridiculously cliché and some of it sends the message that money equals love. The terms “mate” and “marked” were used, making it feel disgusting and quite frankly, cringy. Most creators pride themselves in originality and love for the series. ASmash4Lucario definitely isn’t one of them.

    1. Hi Marie,

      Thanks for your input! We’ll look into getting this story replaced with a better alternative. Out of curiosity, did you have one in mind?

  2. Both Come Together and The Little Things have been taken down by the author. I don’t know if you can edit the article at all, but it’s probably not a good idea to continue to point people to stories that no longer exist.
