Hey, so, uh...

I'm really sorry for dropping off of the map like I did. I'll refrain from going into too much detail, if just because oversharing is a bad habit of mine that I'm trying to break. I'll leave it at "severe and sudden shift in personal life circumstances".

But vanishing like I did, from here especially, was something I regretted. I don't know if people would still trust me to be present after something like that, and I don't know what kind of role here is still available for me. I'm also kind of treating myself as untrustworthy still. But getting back into writing is something that I want to do.

I haven't gone back and read over everything that occurred since the incident, but I'd like to ask [@Moonlit Sonata] if it's possible to continue to play Airi from here as an independent actor. My current understanding is that Airi has no command spells left (we had originally discussed her handing over one, but having her hand over all three once my absence became egregiously long is fine with me), so I'm not sure if her contract with Norton is completely dissolved on those grounds, or if they're still technically linked. In either case, the plan was always for her to cede official control back to Stirner once they had rescued him, so maybe it works out?
