So... all this crap lately... this relationship stuff... it's really been getting to me. I was low... lower than low... I... didn't really want to continue. But... thanks to a few good friends, I've managed to stabilize... to start on the track to happy again... it's going to be a long road... and it's gonna suck, but... I'm gonna hang in there.

Ember is the star in this one because... Alunis has been through a lot lately... relationships... all the struggles of life... she's been on the front lines taking it all since she was born into this world of ours. Ever since I made her, she's been on the receiving end of all the good... but all the bad too. So... now... she's on the shelf... she needs to be for a while until I can sort all this out. I guess you could say that's part of why Ember here is so sad... it's like losing a close, personal friend... but, more than that, Ember's going to be my new face for a while in her place... she's tough... and I have to be tough too. I will be... and this art, commissioned by the friend in the picture here, Doll, is a first step, of sorts. It needs to get better... so chin up, Ember... there's a long road ahead... and thanks, Doll-honey... means a lot to have your support. Same goes for all of you in my corner. Thanks, everyone.
