Not Dead, Just Sleeping

Well, I didn't intend to take an 8-month hiatus, but grad school had other ideas. Luckily for you, I did not stop working on Hivemind during that time, and now that I'm finished working on my master's degree, I have a lot more time to devote to writing.

What this means is that the next chapter is already written, and I will be updating as soon as I am finished editing, sometime within the next few days. After that, I should be able to finally work out a more-or-less permanent update schedule (though it will still probably be on the order of once a month; I'm not the fastest of writers). These next few chapters in particular have been in outline form for almost two years now, so there shouldn't be any more 4-month-long gaps in the foreseeable future.
