Okay, okay, I know I was just edging back into posting, but I just came down with something that's making very difficult to stay at the computer for very long...at all. I almost had to ask for help to find the hiatus post.

I'll probably be gone a few days, just for how long it takes to get over this ick. As always, I'm freakishly sorry. I'll post just as soon as I get better.

I hate to add to the trend, but this has been a long time coming for me.

I am going to drop Toph due to troubles on my part regarding her characterization. The way things are set up for her currently are not working as well as I'd hoped, and I feel it best to give another person a shot at the character. If by chance she's not taken in the near future (one or two app cycles), I plan to apply for her again with some revisions.

As tempting as it is to have the earthbender be carried away by an aquila, Toph will simply disappear at the end of this shift (in time for one last conversation). Sorry for all those involved. Hopefully, she can come back very soon. Until then, please remove neutral_jing from your lists.

Internet seems to be mostly back to normal--or at least, it's very slow but more likely to load than not. *knocks on wood* But it's late, I'm tired, and I've been having an allergic reaction all day. Posting will happen early Thursday morning (6-8AM Eastern).

Okay, so I've been really struggling with this for a while now and I think I've finally made up my mind.

I'm dropping from the game. Please remove Ginji (repolarization), Harry (undesirableone), Spike (bitofboth), Knives (gone_2far) and Zabuza (be_my_tool).

I also will no longer be playing Dr Huang.

I'm really sorry especially for the people I had plots going with.

I thought I should just go on hiatus, but considering I've already done that and I don't know how long it will go I think it's best that I just drop.

I do have one question though. If when the application cycle came by and I wanted to reapply Zabuza, would I be allowed to do that? I do really like the idea of Zabuza finding out about Artemis and Haku because it would be interesting what that would do to his character, and maybe with just one character I'll be able to get my focus back. I guess it depends on if anyone else wants to apply for him, but I'm just wondering if that would be allowed.

Thanks a bunch. I've really liked the last two years playing this game and meeting so many awesome people.
