dropping notification

It really kills me to do this, but this past semester tore me to shreds for a variety of reasons, and I'm feeling pretty burned out with a lot of stuff right now. As a result, I think I need to take some time to take care of myself and scale back on some things. I'm afraid I'm going to have to drop Luffy and Apollo.

Sorry to all my canonmates for being fail with the both of them the past few months. Luffy's especially hard to let go since I've had him since back during the days of Landel's Redux, and I felt like there was all kinds of plotting potential I could have tapped into with Apollo. I may re-app one of them someday if I find the time and no one else has gotten around to it, but I thought I should go ahead and drop now so I wouldn't be squatting on anyone during the next application cycle.

There's the issue regarding Luffy's hat, though. I'd like for it to get to his canonmates, but I'm not sure I have it in me to play out this long plot revolving around it. Does anyone have any suggestions on what should be done about this?

With that said, please remove [livejournal.com profile] rubbermancan and [livejournal.com profile] mister_fine. ;_;

Well... Luffy could leave it in the bathroom (I dunno)

Sorry to hear it, even expecting it! Your ad post to an OP community first interested me in Landel's!

ETA: Actually, now that I can think without squinting, that might really not be such a bad idea... just have Luffy meet with someone for a shift, leave the hat on a table/couch/whatever for some reason and wander off, not to come back for that shift or, uh, until we get another Luffy (though never a better Luffy, I'm sure!) It wouldn't take a lot of time for Luffy, but it would still give the characters left behind both the hat and lots of "OMG I let him wander off alone and now he's gone *sob*" excuse.

And I don't mean to guilt you, I'm afraid my first message was too pushy, I just meant it nostalgically! Sometimes things have to go, after all, I'm glad we got your excellent Luffy as long as we did.
