Slowatus and drop

First off, I want to thank everyone for their kind words and messages. They really have meant a lot in a horribly crappy time. As I need some normalcy and distraction in my life now or I fear my head will explode, I’m moving myself up to a slowatus. I won’t be super-tagger again for a bit, and I’ll be on full hiatus again from 12th-16th when I’ll be away with friends, continuing to try doing the normal thing. I’m going through my inbox now, but as some of these tags are a couple of weeks old, I won’t be insulted if you let them drop. Also, if you have anything at all you want me to tag into, let me know here and I’d be grateful.

Sadly, I’m going to be letting Lorne go. Those on my plurklist know already I was planning to do this at the end of the month, but it has to be now. I’ve been struggling with Lorne for a while, and have been largely playing him for other people. Certain plot points Lorne goes through in extended canon coupled with my father’s death have made me lose the will to write this character for good. I’m sorry to those I promised a little closure with, I really am, but I’m done. Caritas goes to team angel to look after, and his plush jigglypuff goes to Fred.

It’s good to be back, albeit slowly, and thank you again guys. I’ve felt truly loved by this community, and I adore you all <3

Oh and before I forget, email has now changed, I've put it up on the contact list. Any emails sent to my old address will still come to me, so no worries there.

Playing off your Lorne has been amazing, and I was so happy to have him while I did. Cordy will miss him, and so will I, but I understand why he has to go.

I'm just glad you're coming back to the game. ♥

I'm going to miss your Lorne something fierce hon and will never forget how welcoming he was to Wes when he was in such a mess coming to Paradisa. Hopefully we can grab some CR with other muses and I am thrilled that you are staying on. <333

I always enjoyed getting to play out Lorne and Lilah snarking at one another and demand CR from other characters of yours in the future.

But that said, take care of yourself and take all the time you need, we'll all be waiting for you.

That's all I really have to say about that...

...except for the hypnotic moving art.

I adore you, TF. Completely. I will always treasure the CR I had with him, but I understand and I want what's best for you. <333 I'm so glad just to have you around at all.

Why yes, Lorne, I'm totally huggable. :3

I'm afraid I didn't really have any CR with Lorne (except for him making Leo flip the fuck out.) but I always adored watching him.

You take care of yourself, sweetie. /snuggles forever!!!

I don't know if I ever told you this, but ... Lorne's CR with Barney during the DeadSpace plot was the first CR I had that really made me feel welcome here, like I was part of the game, and could make a niche for myself in a Big Huge Plot even though I was still a newbie. I'll always remember him fondly.

This, I've said before, but it bears saying again: if there's anything you need from me, don't hesitate to let me know. I'm glad you feel loved, hon, because you are.
