First of all, Stretch, any word on Sonic XL Chapter 4? I know Ron was supposed to field it, but there hasn't been any word from him in terms of progress. I could try again, if you want.

And as for 9 to 5, it's not getting finished.

It just doesn't really feel worth it anymore. The personally it was most intended for didn't have a word to say about what was done so far, even after personally linking him via an IM (though if what I've heard about the guy is true, I shouldn't be surprised). This really shouldn't offend me (after all, the fandom doesn't give writers much respect on the whole), but it does. I know it wasn't great so far, but it was still early, and I had plans for it (particularly working in several people who I feel I really should do stuff for, considering how nice they've been to me).

So, there are two big apologies I want to make. To Charlie, who actually did like what I did despite having a small part this early in (I'm trying to come up with something for you from scratch to make up for this), and to the people who watched me just because of future chapters. If you feel like pulling me, I understand.

But on the bright side, I've been working on and off on something for someone who's been hoping to trade with me for a while, it's the least I can do for the guy for being awesome. Also brainstorming on ideas for something more serious (i.e., not fetish related); perhaps it would be best to try and squeeze in those people with that instead.

Suggestions and/or requests are welcome. I'm slow, but I eventually get the job done.
