[quote=@Tyler] Sorry about not being in touch. I've been recovering from surgery and honestly was under the impression this was on hiatus for some reason. I hammered out a post for a different RP yesterday and I really wasn't happy with the result, so it's probably for the best that Maxine remains incapacitated for a little while. I'm thankful you didn't eject her entirely because when I'm a little better I still want to be part of this. The slow pace works for me. [/quote] Oh my Lord no, you are [i]more[/i] than fine honey! And it technically was under an uncommunicated hiatus brought about by my own faults. But yes, I wanted to say that about Maxine: I wanted to set her up for an internal arc of her own. I toyed around with including Miles mentioning "However, my mot--I mean--my master, told me particularly attuned souls can enter a plane beyond normal slumber after a while. 'But it will only be by invitation,' she would always add." and give a shrug "Not really sure what that part was about." he'd turn off muttering "Did I leave that tome in the swamp...?" And that'd be to set up the scene for Maxine to have her arc, I've even got a character or two lined floating in my headspace. All up to you boo, whenever you feel ready to come back in. XoXo~Stein
