I've been very conflicted about whether or not to show this before I meant to, but now that I'm STILL taking ages with writing, I figure this would actually be good to show you.

This is the thumbnail for the upcoming chapter of Ready for Round Two. Now, there is... A going in in this chapter. What you're seeing is where it takes place, but believe me, you probably haven't got a clue about what's specifically going to happen...
More importantly though, what you see here is also a character reveal. We have one of the most amazing renditions of Sonic.exe I've ever seen (Of which I feel very privileged to have been given permission to use), and you can now say hello to the face of Chris Laurence >:3 Well, half of it anyway. But now you know what he looks like!

It seems like people aren't very interested in this story anymore if they were. I can't say I blame them, either. I mean, the time I'm taking to complete this stuff is an absolute joke. I'm perfectly aware of that. But y'know what? Not only have I refuse to give up on this, but recent circumstances have shown me a bit of retrospect. Why yes, I would like to clarify that position.
For a year solid now, I have been pushing myself forward with this stuff & my YouTube channel. As lazy as it sounds, I used to be in the mindframe of 'What do I do now?' At some point, I stopped thinking that & started with 'What do I do next?' In that pursuit, I have managed to push away so much in my life that I feel distant from who & what I am. At this point, I'm slowing down & learning to relax again while I do things at my own pace.

So in short, I am getting this done & if anyone still wants to read & find out what happens; I cannot thank you enough for sticking with this. Seriously, I am so grateful that you'd be interested after how long I've been taking. You are awesome & your patience *will* be rewarded. I promise you that.
