All right, everyone! As you all know, the military arc has now ended. I want to thank you all for participating and hope that you had as much fun with it as we did! I also want to offer a huge thanks to Psyche and Jansen yet again for being of such help with it and always being proactive and coming up with some great ideas for plots and events.

Now, to give you some idea of what will change and what will be the same now that the institute is under Landel's control again, here is a list:

• The menu is back to normal! No more pink gruel.

• Uniforms are back to normal! That means that during the day patients will be wearing the old gray shirt and sweatpants, happy face and all. And the slippers, of course. If you want a full list of the clothing available to them, check here. For any character who was a part of the military arc, there will still be a military uniform in their closet that they can wear at night if they wish. New patients coming in after the arc will not have this, however.

• The possessions boxes will remain in use, mainly for convenience. However, the hospital staff will not be as strict about taking items as the military was. While patients will wake up and find things like weapons/alcohol/cigarettes have been taken from them, more harmless items like books, toys, and pre-approved accessories from Oktoberfest outfits would remain. As usual, weapons and other items will be back in the boxes by dinner. The boxes and items will always appear in the patient's closet from now on. Also, items from dropped characters will be able to be transferred directly into another character's possession box, which has been the case during the arc.

• As for the whole pin reward/thing, it will be staying but will be tweaked somewhat. The nurses will expect different things from the patients, and instead of pins, they will be given wristbands that have stickers added to them for each reward. While a patient could try to remove a sticker if they wanted, it would suddenly be in the exact same spot the next time they looked at their wristband. All of the character's pins that they achieved during the military arc will transfer over into the same amount of stickers. For now, we still need to work out what patients can do to earn stickers and what the exact rewards will be, so sit tight on that.

• As promised, missions will remain in play! With any luck we can continue those in the upcoming nightshift.

• The nursing staff will have no idea of what went on during the military arc. They'll behave as if everything was normal and that Landel was simply on vacation for a few days.

That should be everything, but if there's something I've forgotten to mention then feel free to respond here and ask! I hope you're all looking forward to dayshift and that the powers event was a lot of fun for all participants!

Thanks to uni and some other generally shit personal stuff I'd rather not go into here, I'm going to be hiatused until at least the 17th of December. I'm really sorry to everyone, and I'll still be able to hit up backthreads hopefully. ♥

This applies to scalyfishman, bitpartgod and herr_inspektor. Take care, Damned!
