I am sorry that my words annoyed you so much. I am also sorry that I've, inadvertently, damaged the cordial relationship we've had so far. 

I must make some things clear however. Writing, for me, is a holistic process. I sit down and devote all of my attention and effort to it. I've recently returned home, where my family is having financial issues and I don't have constant access to the internet (I need to walk a dozen blocks to the library if I want to even look at this page). So, though the internet is not the primary reason that I haven't posted, it is important to remember, and it certainly does not help. 

It is true, I asked for suggestions, and I was given suggestions. Not that I don't appreciate them, but I don't find them appealing, so I decided to think of something else. The issue is, the things that i would write about in my next post amount to almost nothing. Gabe has had no emotional ties to anything that's happened, he's been simply reacting. Perhaps it is my fault that I am not inspired by the events that have taken place, and I will accept that burden gladly, but I feel a little insulted that you find my ignorance to be infuriating. As you said yourself, you don't like filter text, and neither do I. But aside from that you question my devotion to the story. I'll have you know that the posts that I've written for this RP have been some of the most thoughtout things I've written (not that that's saying much) for any RP, and I take the things I write here very seriously-- which is one of the reasons I have not posted. 

Lastly, I'm very sure that the only time I have not delivered on a post I promised was very recently (the time in which I've been sick and a little depressed). As I said before, my RP writing is a holistic process, I try to find something in myself to project outward while doing so, something meaningful. It is very difficult to do so while you're in the dumps. 

So, once again, I'm sorry that my behavior has come off as flippant to you, as I strive to remain as dedicated as possible in any RP I take part in. I am also sorry that I could not live up to your standards of a dedicated RPer. 

(All that being said, provided I'm not kicked out, the schedule has not changed. I might have something up today, it might be tomorrow, either way it will be within the next couple of days)
