[FFML] Atb.: The end of the FFML

[Weiss Schnee]

The question is... do we really want to let the FFML die now. I don't really know about anyone else. But, my answer is... no I do not want to let it die.

Unfortunately, I have no money. All my funds are all into Fanfic Paradise now. And I have nothing left to give.

Somebody out there must have enough money. And want to save it right now. I hope that they will do something.
