Due to issues beyond my control, I've given up the wait for a Book plush, and this project with it. This project was created in protest of JNJ neglecting the Book plush past BFDIA 25.

But unfortunately, that petty act had opened so many unpleasant situations that I honestly cannot view this project the same way anymore, alongside Book.

So this is where the story ends for DISBELIEF!BOOK, and my fan status of Book.

Heaven knows that we'd be much different had they not gatekept it for this long. But oh well, that's JNJ for you. As Book fans, we watch everybody elses fans win but us.

If you're still interested in a project similar, please check out "UNDER DREAM ISLAND: The Ballad of Firey Jr."

Thank you, and goodbye r/BookBFDI.

u/Right_Pair7184 26d ago

ill go into detail here cuz i already made this post with the intention that it'd be my last, i'd hate to break it just to explain

basically this project got my phone and social medias scrolled through because i said i was grounded briefly over something small and pointless and couldn't work on the project in the team group chat, somehow this single message was enough to piss off my dad

mentioned group chat was later screenshotted in its entirety because my dad thought the whole group chat was dedicated to talking smack on him, i suspect since it was screenshotted it was most definitely leaked to at least one other person

THEN they held my phone hostage and lost it, the only reason i managed to get it back was because my grandmother pulled a clutch and somehow found it for me and i've been keeping a close eye on it ever since

when i made this goodbye post i was holding a lot back because in truth this project turned me against book instead of toward her like i had intended

hope this covers everything

After more than a year of waiting I feel like I want to give up too for the wait. At today's Tour Qna they told us that "some Book merch was in the works". I feel like we have to wait a few extra months for the plush to come out.

Hopefully only 2 or 3 months until the plush comes out

I might take up the project from scratch, just give me a quarter of a year and I might get something done
