Happy birthday, Paso and AYC!
Sorry about not noticing your birthday earlier, Paso, but then I wouldn't have any way of knowing haha. Hope you're having a great year and stuff; it's started already! You always seem to have stuff going on, so that's great. I almost didn't catch AYC's either, but that's mostly cos I don't use Facebook much anyway.
Anyway, happy birthday to AYC as well! May this year bring you better-than-expected results in your examinations, and a whole load of not-having-to-think-about it. And might I take a moment to say that all that art is awesome XD

And since I'm posting in this thread, I might as well go on-topic; my father just finished throwing a tantrum at me because I didn't spend a long time reading through the budget plan he'd written for my trip to the UK (largely because I already knew everything that was in it) and so he's sulking in his room right now after shouting for a bit :S Hopefully it won't last because there were some issues I brought up shortly before he began shouting at me that really needed to be looked at (he kept dismissing them because he firmly believed I hadn't read it yet). But that's the drama that can come with going overseas for three years, I suppose.
I'm still lurking on the forums, just haven't worked up the motivation to post anything. I'm completely up-to-date on everything that's been going on, no worries (LN-wise), but at this point I can't get myself to feel like it'll be worth the effort writing the characters in. I've had a few times where I'll be doing something and suddenly have a brilliant idea of a post to write up, but I get bogged down thinking about how I'd have to coordinate a lot of things to pull it off, and how it would differ greatly from the current pace of the story. That and I have the feeling everyone else has their own plans, which I know will either be messed up by mine, or will mess mine up. It's the difficulty of having more than one primary causal catalyst, I believe. Ah well, c'est la free-form collaborative fiction, as they say in France. I'll be leaving on the 25th, at which point I suppose my muse will press-gang me into writing something just for some sense of familiarity.
By the way, Pictor, I see what you did there
