I really hate to contribute to the decline of this, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to leave as well.

My post-rate is abysmal right now, not to mention that I'm going to be gone for a full week soon, so I'll probably be missing that new plot point. My schedule is a mess, and it's hard finding the opportunity to give myself enough time to write.

So I'll be off, unfortunately. It was fun, even if a handicapped snail could have beat my rate of posting.
