Thank you! I really like Carter's character and can't wait to actually get into the RP. :) The world, the characters--they're all just great and I'm excited to see how they play out. In Ayn's case, pretty much all animals seem to like her. Especially dogs. The only problem with that is that Ayn is scared of dogs. She claims to just not like them, but if a dog is around she gets very uncomfortable and fidgety. It's actually rather funny. She has her reasons, though--as a kid she tried to pet one and it bit her (though one would think she would have gotten over that).
