I have no excuse for not checking the forums guys... I'm so ashamed *waits to be whipped by Victoria* BUT! You're out pours of exhaustion and feelings have definitely given me a much needed slap across the face. I need to be on top of this roleplay and I thank you for my recognition for blossoming Jasper. Couldn't have done it without you guys and a big factor would be Hakuren. PHONESSSSS! I don't know why, but I felt the urge to cry while I read your good bye post. Probably since we've been together for so long and you were always there to pick on my baby. Haku were the best kiss she ever got between him and Harper(no offense Harper :D ) I remember reading your character submission when Fox was still waiting on interests and a limited number of characters for this roleplay last year, almost a year ago now actually. And I remember how amazed and intimidated I was by your length of writing and since it was my first time finally transitioning into the advanced forums, it really gave me a clue to how someone who was extremely in depth and skilled with their writing would..... write.I understand how the lay out of this rp would have never worked for Hakuren. You and Elsa *cough* the Ice Prince will be greatly missed. I hope you had stayed since tough times like this in an rp where you are lacking inspiration and motivation are what make you a better writer once you strive through it. I love you Phones like seriously. I hope we get together on a roleplay someday. Who knows, maybe Fox will be the GM again XD (gonna break it to you guys but I was slowly starting to not looking forward to responding to the IC as my energy drained, BUT since your OOC confessions I have been given renewed strength that I know will stay and hopefully carry us to the end!) This rp has helped me mature more than I could have ever imagined and let me know what its truly like to work with a lot more other people than I'm used to. Advanced requires detail, but also plot development which takes a whole lot longer than shorter posts(like in casual or free roleplay), especially with our time differences we are only ever on at the same time if one of use stays up late XD These experiences have really improved me for the better. I'm so happy! Jasper is probably one of the most developed characters I've ever created and without this rp, she would have never been made! As we always say, the train must chug on!
