Hey guys. I spent a really long time in the ER this morning for health issues that I'd rather not talk about.

I'm really not feeling well at all, and can hardly sit up without getting dizzy, let alone concentrate. As such, I'm going to hiatus for a few days. I'm sure I'll be back in about three, but we'll call it a week to be safe.

Let's all hope 2010 hates me less than the end of 09 did. ♥

This affects remnantsofflame, thirdboywonder, straydoghowl, and destroyeroftime.

So... we decided to delay the shift three days, meaning that dinner shift will start on Wednesday. Sorry about that! Though in the end more people wanted that, even though it was very close. 8D Anyway!

This is the official Lounge post for players who want to plan out specific Nightshift threads ahead of time in order to foster desired kinds of interaction and character development. Allow us to stress that SCHEDULING THREADS IS COMPLETELY OPTIONAL.

Please use the following template when commenting. We suggest bolding important points so that people who are scanning the post can get a quick idea of what you're looking for. You might also want to use the usernames of the characters whose attention you want so that people can easily ctrl+F to find things relevant to their interests. Your request can range from as vague as "I want my character to make new friends!" to as specific as "I want my character to thread with a megalomaniacal antagonist, if possible."

SUBJECT LINE: character name(s)
Character:
Interaction/Development Wanted: (what kind of plotting/interaction you're looking for, any specific characters you're already going to be threading with, characters you'd like to thread with, etc.)
When: (be as specific or un-specific as you want)

Sorry for the spam, but I wanted to note a few room switches that have been made in anticipation of dinner to account for recent drops.

Dist and Porky are paired in M6.
Junpei and Hitsugaya are paired in M8.
Asch and Shikamaru are paired in M22.
Haine and S.T. are paired in M30.
Trunks and Scott Pilgrim are paired in M85.
Aya and Bruno are paired in M97.

Mini-Hiatus for Usopp, mostly because he had nothing going for fourth shift which looks to be extended, and his dinner shift partner can't make it, so through until nightshift.

Speaking of which, is anyone able to say what was wanted for tonight and people dying and/or disappearing and/or whatever? Does anyone want Usopp present for deaths, noticing vanishings, etc.? I don't want to post him in the scheduling thread until I know for sure whether he actually has plans already. :/ Who is getting what hats how, now?

Okay, my hiatus ended up lasting like two weeks longer than I intended, but I am back an determined to post today. I will backthread gladly with anyone who was doing scenes with Howl or Kaworu, and I am particularly looking at Shinji, Asuka, Yuna and Albedo, since... I think Sophie hiatused too. GOOD TIMING?

I'm sorry for disappearing like that, guys. ;_;

So, um, yeah... As folks might have noticed, I have all but dropped from the face of the earth for the past few days. ^^;;;;; This is because my fail!machine decided to go batty on me again, and most of my free time at home has been dedicated to upgrading anti-malware applications and running scans that keep bogging down my computer to a grinding halt. =P I THINK I have it mostly taken care of, except that I'm on my way to work now and can't do any tagging until I get home later tonight at the earliest.

So, to folks I'm back-threading with vK, my deepest apologies, but I will try to get back to it ASAP. And also, please let me know if I'm apologizing too much here... I never know for sure when it's required or when it's inappropriate. ^^;;;;

So, while everyone else's holidays are winding down, mine seem to be winding up. We're heading to ATLANTA~ for New Year's tomorrow, and I'll be back sometime after. :3 I'll do my best not to be horribly slow during the opening days of January~

Also, I never get to use this icon. Sob.


Love,

Back from visiting family, so I should be able to get back onto posting more frequently now! Once I've had some caffeine. Caffeine~

Just letting peeps know, I'm gonna be out of town with my folks and friends for New Years, so I'll be slow posting during dinner, and I'll hold off on entering Forte into the night shift until I'm back next week
