No problem!

In regard to Arla noticing what was going on around her, I didn't have a preference tbh. If you're referring to the way Rayth reacted in thinking it was "too soon" that was just because his game plan was to try and warm her up slowly to the circus. He started by telling her that he wasn't human, and then would have added that everyone else wasn't either if she responded well to that. He probably would have avoided the subject of the after party for a while after that though, haha. Of course, things don't always go according to plan, so I personally didn't need the story to go any particular direction there. If we leave it as it is, Rayth would just have to scrap his original idea, which is something he would have been able to do just fine since he's pretty good at thinking on his feet ^^

It's fine! When it comes to minor points in the plot, I don't care too much about how they turn out. I'll usually just play around what my partner does unless the reaction just doesn't make sense for my character. As long as we're on the same page with the big twists, that's the important thing :)

Ah, gotchya. I don't know. I feel like it'd be easier to actually get her to stay/go back if I hadn't had her notice that. I swear. I know what that brain fog feels like first-hand. Just minus the drug part. xD Anyway, I didn't want to end up making you wait longer than necessary depending on your response here, but wanted to wait for it before trying to work around myself, just in case, so did type up that alternate in free time last night. Tacked it onto the end of that IC post in a hider.

I know it's minor. I'm honestly also trying to make my next post easier on me, too, without inadvertently making things difficult on you with editing or anything. xD One of those, "Wait... what did I just do to myself?!" moments that dawned when spurred to figure out how she'd react from here. Be easier and more character-fitting, I feel, to convince her to go back/hang around with the fear of a single entity, than the fear of the many.

Anyway. It's actually past my bedtime--the joy of being nocturnal, and taking a nap when you shouldn't have. Popped on here before getting ready to lay down, saw the response, and figured I'd get this in before crashing. Let me know what you think and don't mind me doing, I'll erase the unneeded version via IC when I get up and have time, and get started on an actual reply after that.

Also, patience from you is so greatly appreciated, you have no idea. So thanks much! Have a good one!

Okay, I'm fine with switching to the alternate version if that's easier for you ^^ I've got a lot of free time today, so I can edit my post to fit the new one later.

I understand that feeling, haha. I've also done that before, and I think your reasoning for wanting to change it makes sense.

Sounds good to me! Have a good day/night or whatever nocturnal people call it xD

Yay! Good for you ^^ I hope the new place works out better than the last, haha.

Um, I think stressful is the best word I could use right now xD Lots of personal issues have been coming up in the last week that have made life unnecessarily difficult. I'm an open person, so I have no problem explaining, but it's stuff I prefer to keep it to a PM thread if so (just for the sake of not being stalked by an anonymous user, haha). If it would concern you at all, it's not something that's going to be impacting my writing or posting speed at all. Just an annoyance.

It's just a temporary place until we can move to a different state, so it should work nicely. Quirks and all.

Oh, dang! I'm sorry things have been stressful. Understandable, about not wanting to discuss it publicly. If you would like to talk/vent about it via PM, I would be happy to listen! Well, read, but same concept here. No, that doesn't concern me in the least. Even if it did affect that, I would be more than fine with waiting. I care about your well-being much more than getting frequent posts! Really. If you ever need to step back for a while for whatever reason, don't worry about me. I'll be here. No detailed explanation needed. Just take care of yourself, and know I'm here if you ever need and/or want to talk!

Oh, nice! Which state are you moving to next?

Thanks! I appreciate it ^^ I'm blessed to have an amazing husband and a small army of friends in my town who've been great support though, so I've been doing good so far.

Not entirely sure yet. Have a couple places under consideration. All lower altitude. xD

That's great your husband is supportive! <3 And you have that support group there! A perk of being an extrovert?

Sorry for the IC delay! Should let you know my sleep schedule is more nonexistent than normal from various things. Been difficult for me to figure out when I can write without dozing off at the computer. Currently trying to get the sleep thing back to "normal," so hope to get to it soon, but don't want to give any false promises.

Nice! I live at a high altitude (7000 ft), but I haven't had any health issues relating to it (that I'm aware of) so I like it. Hopefully you can find a good place to live that will work for your needs though!

Yeah, he's the best ^^ I couldn't have asked for a better guy. And I'd say so xD I've been called a social butterfly more times than I can count, and I like to think I'm a likable person lol Haven't heard too many people disagree yet.

And that's okay! Take as much time as you need. Having a consistent sleep schedule is so important for your health.

Well, I'm glad you like it, and that high altitude treats you well! Thanks, I appreciate it! It's kind of crazy, though. I have friends who travel here from lower altitudes (like three- to five-thousand feet lower), and they all end up dealing with altitude sickness. It's odd to think that something that seems so trivial can have such different effects on people!

Well, I certainly won't be the first to disagree with that! xD

I think altitude sickness has more to do with the abrupt change from low to high. I got it once when I first moved to the city I'm living in now, but I haven't gotten it since ^^ I've also heard you can avoid it if you stay extra hydrated when you travel to a higher altitude. Eating blueberries is also supposed to help, but I'm not sure why.

I'm SO sorry! Things ended up getting stressful and busy once I got back from vacation. October through December tends to see me busy, usually because of making costumes and Christmas gifts, but in this case, life was just against me. xD

I did, thank you! Had a blast, and actually got to do things for Halloween. How about yours? You went out of state for a while, right? Aww, wedding! Hope you have a good time! As always, no rush. Not like I just made you wait a fricken' month or anything.

That's great! Mine was a lot of fun ^^ We went to Universal in Florida over Halloween! They had a haunted house thing going on, which we didn't do, so the lines for the rides in the rest of the park were really short! We made it our mission to do every high-speed roller coaster, haha. I loved it.

Also with winter break coming up, I should have more time in general in about 2-3 weeks!

Ugh, sorry, the holidays ended up being exceptionally rough on me this year, so I played an unplanned extended vanishing act. I'm sooooo sorry I didn't get any kind of message to you sooner. :-(

I hope to get to remaining replies sometime this week, though, if you're still around for this!

*Sigh.* Sorry again.

… Okay. Some random, last-minute things ended up popping up I had to deal with. *Takes a deep breath.* Fingers crossed life will settle down a bit for a while. Usually does after the major holiday trio, just decided to linger a bit longer this year.

Hope things are going well on your end! And thanks, as always, for your patience.
