Got your PM too. Cheers for getting back to me, Ed.

I'm not gonna lie, I was getting worried about you there, since it almost felt like one of those 'you disappear for months, or half a year' moments was coming. I figured those days should be over now that you're in a better living situation, so I had a feeling something was wrong, and it looks like I was right. We were concerned about you.

Anyway, as soon as we're both around, we'll work stuff out. It shouldn't be too late, especially since this week is likely to be the slowest week in terms of progressing this IC forward (need to finish up the collaboration to shift the chapter forward). Once this week ends, I want things to move into full gear for everyone. There's quite a lot we need to talk about, so the sooner the better.

I didn't want to have to 'single you out' in that last post, but it'd be unfair for me to break my own rules (I blatantly told everyone to remain active in the rules, otherwise I'd take whatever means I needed to keep the story moving without them) and make exceptions to them just because you're a good friend off the site. I'm sure you understand.

Either way, it's good to know you're still invested because I really would prefer Guy remain in your hands. It sounds like you had a good reason for vanishing, based off everything you told me over Skype, but we need to avoid that sort of thing as much as possible, especially without explanation and without preparation to make sure the group isn't sabotaged because of it. Regardless, I'm glad you're alright, and you know I'm good to talk if you need an ear.
