Citizens of Shine City, Allow me to announce that no more will you have to tirelessly ponder over whether your character will continue to be a part of the Weatherman arc, and waste sleepless nights giggling and scheming to yourselves about who you want dead in the next attack! I have come to announce, through an ultimately unanimous decision, that the Weatherman will not continue on this journey through Shine City with us after this point in the evening. Of course, we are working out the schematics of his departure, so I request your patience. I can assure you that he will no longer be with us by the morning of 1/1/20XX, though. It is, after all, a romance role-play that all of you here have signed up to. Boss wanted it that way, and I take full responsibility for letting the film noir aspect, alluring and enchanting as it is, overwhelm me and what this RP originally stood for. You have my sincerest apologies. Like [@Bozo] rightly brought up, conflict is the heart of any story. I task the GMs (with any player suggestions we can consider, of course) with scheming up new drama and new world conflict to keep the RP from losing a backbone completely and turning into one giant happy orgy. ...unless that's what you'd like, ahaha. Of course, for someone whose character was so involved with the Weatherman, I am devastated to see him go. (Shou probably wouldn't be...) However, this is something we believed needed to be done. Thank you, The Shine City Council.
