Oh dear. 

So, first of all, hi guys and I'm really sorry to have disappeared over the last...what, half year now?

Shit kind of hit the fan for me around December -- I had a small financial crisis and had to let go of several amenities. Like internet access. 

And my laptop. 

I've been stuck just using my local library's computers for a while, so I wasn't able to contact anyone over skype, and I guess my rpg account had frozen or something while I was away? I wasn't able to log on for a while and nearly had to make an entirely new account, but I finally got it all figured out, my financial situation has stabilized somewhat, my roommate and I are now sharing a (very cheap and slow running, but running all the same) computer, and so here I am!

Far too late to the party, apparently. :( I'm so sorry to see that TSTS has been dropped during my absence -- reading everyone's work on here was easily one of the best parts of my day, and I absolutely loved being a part of this group. If there's any chance of this coming back to life, or being rebooted, I'll do my absolute best to facilitate that -- these days I've got at least an hour or two a day to dedicate to writing, and I certainly don't plan to drop off the face of the earth again. Just make sure to let me know if y'all are in a good position to do so! 

Again, I'm really sorry to have disappeared so suddenly and for so long. I hope I've still got a place with you guys.
