Incognito
Chapter One
"Great work, Miss Nikos. Now hold that pose, I'm just going to get a few more shots."
Pyrrha smiled politely for the photographer, remaining composed underneath the blinding heat of camera flashes and studio lights; a gesture she had long ago perfected.
It was nothing new to her. As an accomplished athlete and record four time winner of the regional tournament in Mistral, Pyrrha was used to being the focal point of attention. It was hard not to see her face plastered on billboards throughout the city, or gracing the labels of different products.
Yet, even with the years she'd had to adjust, the constant attention made her feel uncomfortable.
While Pyrrha was talented, she didn't think of herself or her accomplishments as particularly important. She was proud of them, certainly, but she couldn't understand why she, of all people, been raised up on a pedestal, when there were people doing much more worthwhile things. Pyrrha wasn't a hero, she wasn't changing the world or saving anyone's life. She was just a regular, teenage girl. Or at least, she had been.
As the lights died down slowly after a moment, Pyrrha looked up at the photographer as they lowered their camera, who offered her a smile.
"Well done, Miss Nikos. You can take five for now."
Pyrrha released a low sigh of reflief, before stepping out from in front of the backdrop, moving around the various tripods and lights that had surrounded her. She walked slowly out of the studio and pulled out her scroll, grateful for the momentary lapse in her fast paced life.
While Pyrrha appreciated the admiration she received for her years of training and hard work, at the same time, she couldn't help but feel her celebrity status was a burden as much as it was a blessing.
As a teenager, growing through such a pivotal stage of her life constantly in the public eye had been difficult. Pyrrha found herself constantly surrounded by people of all ages admiring her, yet, in spite of this, she had grown up feeling lonely and isolated from her peers.
She couldn't remember the last time she had truly bonded with another person.
People were intimidated by her, and her status, tending to keep their distance, only daring to get so close to her. If she tried to strike up a conversation, they seemed nervous in her presence, stumbling over their words or avoiding eye contact entirely. Pyrrha tried to remain cheerful for her fans, yet it was becoming harder to supress the deep frustration and sadnessbuilding inside of her.
For the longest time, she had wanted to escape, a chance to start over fresh. Overcome by the desire to escape the loneliness her fame brought her, Pyrrha had ventured online, into the virtual realm. There, she could speak with other people as an equal. Anonymous, without any accolades, pre-conceived notions, or expectations attached to her name. She could be herself. Stripped away from the fame and success.
She had first joined a fan forum for X-Ray and Vav, a comic book series she had stumbled upon recently. In her day to day life, Pyrrha spent a lot of time on sets and in studios doing promotional work for sponsors or products, projects that involved periods of inactivity. As a fairly active person, Pyrrha found herself growing restless waiting, wanting to spend the time doing something, anything remotely productive. She had wanted to find something to keep herself occupied, so that she wasn't just sitting around. One on such occasion, she found an issue of X-Ray and Vav that had been left in the studio, possibly by another talent or crew member.
Though not familiar with the series at the time, Pyrrha saw it as a reprieve from her boredom, and was willing to engage in any activity that could pass the time.
As she read, she was pleasantly surprised, finding that there was something about the bright panels and quirky characters of the series that drew captivated her attention. She quickly became a fan, looking online for other issues and reading them, enraptured. She would follow the series over the coming days and weeks, eventually catching up to the latest arc.
It was on that forum that she met Jaune. Her first and closest online friend.
He was the first person she communicated with. The first one to welcome her when she made a post in the introduction section, someone she saw posting routinely on the boards, the mere sight of his avatar and username eliciting a bright smile from her. She enjoyed his care free attitude, and light-hearted humour. Their conversations were relaxed and easy, something she'd missed, and couldn't remember having had in a number of years.
Jaune treated her like a regular girl, because that was the only way he'd ever known her. As they'd grown closer, learning each other's names and identities, speaking with each other over video calls, it became that apparent that Pyrrha's fame did not stretch quite as far as the neighbouring kingdoms. For Jaune did not recognise her. He knew nothing of Pyrrha Nikos, the world class athlete, or even the Mistral Regional Tournament for that matter.
He only knew Pyrrha, a regular, teenage girl. So, she had played along, more than happy to accept the role.
While the online platform was able to provide Pyrrha with semblance of escape, it was only temporary. She could only break away from the reputation she'd gained in the real world for so long. Every day she would have to step back into her celebrity role, and return to masking her loneliness and unhappiness.
This brief exposure to a simpler only made Pyrrha crave it more. She wanted to travel somewhere where her name and face were indistinguishable amongst a crowd, even if just for a short time. Scanning through her email on her scroll, Pyrrha eyes were caught upon the messaged flagged and pinned at the top of the page. The escape she had always sought. Her electronic boarding pass for an air-ship to Vale.
She had been offered some work there on a major advertising project with the Schnee Company, which would require her to move away from Mistral a temporary basis.
The idea had been very tempting to Pyrrha. She had worked with the Schnee Company before and even had a good relationship with the company's heiress, Weiss, a girl who was around her age. She was probably the closest thing to a real life friend Pyrrha had.
It wasn't her past relationship with the company that convinced Pyrrha, though. Nor was it the opportunity to travel to a different region, somewhere where she wasn't as well known; although, the prospect certainly excited her. The main reason motivating her decision was different.
Pyrrha opened the message client on her scroll and began typing out a new draft. I still can't believe I'm leaving for Vale in three days, Pyrrha tapped out on the device. Her stomach fluttering with happiness and excitement. It won't be long until we finally get to see each other.
It was because Vale was Jaune's home.
.
It was stuffy in the storeroom of From Dust 'Til Dawn, the lack of windows limiting the room's fresh air and natural light. Still, Jaune didn't mind working there. He enjoyed the solitude, hidden away from his supervisor, and the customers, being able to work at his own place. He could stop between unpacking boxes and check his scroll, unnoticed.
Opening the device as it vibrated softly in his pocket, Jaune couldn't help but smile reading Pyrrha's message, the excitement she had felt when typing it out was clear and infectious. It was finally dawning on him. In just three days Pyrrha would be here. In Vale.
For a while it had seemed like this day could never possibly come. After years of speaking to her over forums and through Skype calls, they'd always talked about one day meeting up, but the distance and their real life responsibilities always made their plans difficult to act also wasn't entirely sure his stomach would last an entire trip to Mistral. He grew queasy just thinking about it.
It was lucky for him that Pyrrha had been offered a job in Vale and would be moving over soon.
I know,Jaune typed out in reply. I can't wait to see you! I'll make sure to give the grand tour of Vale.
He set the scroll down on the shelf beside him, knowing Pyrrha would be quick to message him back. She usually didn't initiate a conversation unless she was on a break from work and had time to kill. Sure enough, shortly after he had placed down the device it vibrated lowly again, alerting Jaune of her response.
I look forward to it. How's work?
Work is… work. Better now that I'm talking to you though. :)
"Hey Jaune," Ruby called, making him looked up from his scroll. She gestured to some boxes stacked neatly onto a flatbed trolley. "Mind give me a hand unpacking this new stock? If you're not too busy right now, that is." She joked.
"Sure," Jaune answered his co-worker with a grin, tucking his scroll away into his pocket.
Ruby had started working at From Dust til Dawn earlier that year. Noticing that she seemed to be having trouble fitting in, much like he had when he first arrived, Jaune befriended her, offering her the help he wished he'd always received. Though a little socially awkward at first, she came out of her shell more as they became closer and he learned that she was actually quite excitable and imaginative. It reminded him a lot of his younger sister back home.
Helping Ruby wheel the loaded trolley out from the storeroom and into the shop, the two began to unpack its contents onto an empty shelf.
"So, you know I'm leaving to start training at Signal next month, right?" Ruby asked as they worked.
"Let me think," Jaune deadpanned, stopping to stroke his chin as if deep in thought. "Yes, I do remember the three other times you told me this week."
"Hey, I'm just saying. They're going to notice a massive drop in productivity if you stay glued to your scroll all day." Ruby teased.
"Very funny," Jaune said, sticking his tongue out. "You and your wit will be sorely missed around here."
It was hard to believe that she would be leaving soon. It felt like only yesterday Ruby had mentioned she was applying. The time sure passed quickly.
Signal was the Recruitment Academy for Vale's Police force. Ever since she had been a little girl, Ruby had wanted to be a police officer, just like her mom, Summer, before her. While her mom's work had meant there were many times in her life where Ruby didn't get to see her, or was worried about her well-being, she still had a great admiration for her and wanted to follow in her footsteps.
Still young and somewhat naïve, Ruby had an incredibly romanticised view of working in law enforcement. She imagined herself being hero to the city and helping those in need, something that, unfortunately, wasn't always the case. Still, she had a dream she was pursuing, a clear sense of direction in her life. He wished he could be so lucky.
Ruby grinned toothily as Jaune placed his hand on her head, ruffling her hair warmly. He was happy for her, but part of him wished, selfishly, that she didn't have to leave. He was going to miss having her around.
"Don't waste your time worrying about me, though. Go out and achieve your dream. Become the hero that Vale's always needed."
Ruby watched her friend, her smile fading into a puzzled expression. She knew that Jaune was proud of her, and at heart, his words were genuine. Though she couldn't help but notice that odd tone that tinted them.
He must have been feeling insecure about himself, Ruby supposed. Even in the short time she'd known him, they'd grown close and Jaune had confided in her. He'd expressed worry that he was a failure, and didn't know what he was going to do with his life. All he wanted to do was make his family proud. Perhaps seeing one of his friends moving ahead of him, as he remained rooted and unmoving, was hard for him to swallow.
"Hey," She said, tapping him lightly across the arm, hoping to take his mind of those negative thoughts. "There's no need to bring the mood down. It's not like I'm leaving the Kingdom or anything; we'll still see each other all the time!"
"You're right. I'm sorry, Rubes. I didn't mean to rain on your parade. You should be proud."
It was true, after all. His friend was following her dream. He shouldn't be moping.
"Hey! I know," Jaune exclaimed suddenly. "We should have everyone get together and celebrate you starting at Signal."
"Yeah, that sounds like a great idea!" Ruby exclaimed, a bright smile returning to her face. "It'd been fun to hang out with everyone again."
"Cool. I'll let Ren and Nora know when I get home tonight. Maybe we can organise something for the weekend?"
"Yeah, that works." Ruby said. "Now, let's get back to work. Yang's picking me up today and I don't have to work over and keep her waiting. So no more slacking off. Got it, Arc?"
"Alright, alright. Fine." Jaune answered, with a grin.
.
"Remind me again why you thought it was a good idea to get a sectional?" Neptune grunted, trying to manoeuvre the awkwardly shaped section of couch up the stairs.
"It was at a garage sale, I got it for like practically nothing!" Sun answered from the other end. "Beggars can't be choosers, man."
"Huh. So what you save on the upholstery goes towards covering medical bills. I guess that's how they get you."
"Shut up. You- Argh!" Sun readjusted his grip. "You asked me to get a couch. I got us a couch."
"No, you got us three parts of a couch."
"How was I supposed to know this place didn't have an elevator?"
"Ugh. How about that time we checked it out, before we moved here?"
"I told you, I had to work -Shit! Warn me before you lower your side like that!"
"Just keeping you on your toes." Neptune laughed, setting the couch down. Sun arched a brown in confusion, but followed suit, lowering his end also.
Neptune gestured wordlessly to a bend in the stairwell. A sharp corner which the couch appeared too bulky to manoeuvre around.
"This is not going to work, is it?"
"Of course it will, we've just got to angle your side through first. C'mon, Neptune: pivot, pivot."
"I am not going through this with you again."
.
"So why didn't Jaune want to come with us?" Yang asked as she parked her motorcycle, Bumblebee, pulling her helmet off. Ruby stepped off after her.
"Jaune tends to get… motion sickness." Ruby answered carefully. It was a sensitive topic for him. "I don't know that he'd be able to handle your bike."
"Oh right," Yang rolled her eyes. "I guess I forgot who were talking about."
She fished her keys out of her pocket as they made their way into the lobby of their apartment building, carrying on with the conversation.
"Still, you and Vomit Boy sure make a good team. You seem pretty close." Yang said, teasingly. "Have you ever thought of… y'know."
"What?" Ruby asked, not following what Yang was insinuating.
Yang rolled her eyes. "Asking him out."
"Eww! No thanks." Ruby gagged. "I mean, I love Jaune, but not like that. He's my friend. He also told me once that I reminded him of his little sister a lot, so I'm pretty sure he feels the same way."
"Besides," she continued, pressing the call button for the elevator. "Even if I was interested in him; which I'm not; I'm pretty sure he has a girlfriend already, anyway."
"Really?" Yang asked sceptically, leaning her arm against the wall as they waited. "That scrawny goofball? I find that hard to believe."
"Why? He's been really nice to me. And once you get to know him, he can be pretty funny and smart. I mean, he is kind of dense sometimes, but he's really good with-"
"Aw, Ruby!" Yang cut off her sister's chattering. "That's so sweet! Are you sure you don't like him?"
"Yaaaaaang!" Ruby whined, slapping her across the arm.
"Heh, okay, okay. I'll stop. But seriously, what makes you think that?"
Ruby shrugged, as the lift doors opened and the door stepped inside. "He's always on his phone, texting someone. It's all he seems to do his break… and during work when he thinks no one's looking. He can come grumpy one morning, but if he gets a text, he's smiling and spacing out for the rest of the day. It doesn't seem like he's just talking with family or friends."
"Huh." Yang said, intrigued, as they stepped into the elevator. "So, how come you've never asked?"
"Not everyone is as open as you with talking about those kind of things, sis."
"Hey!" Yang protested, holding her hand over her chest in mock indignation. "I resent that."
"Sorry." Ruby flinched. "I didn't mean it like, that. It's just, you're more… sure of yourself, I guess. I wouldn't even know how to ask him something like that. Besides, it would be awkward to just straight out ask him if he has a girlfriend. I might give him the wrong idea."
"I guess you're right. You'll need to find out some other way." Yang said, before clenching her fists in a determined pose. "I'll just have to ask him myself."
"What?" Ruby cried. "No! Yang, that's not what I meant at all!"
"Too late, Ruby, you've got me interested. Besides, I want to see what kind of girl Vomit Boy is pulling."
Ruby huffed, folding her arms with a childish pout. She could tell there was no fighting this. Yang was stubborn. Once she'd made her mind about something, it was difficult to change it.
They stepped out of the elevator, once it stopped at their floor, walking down the hall to their apartment. Yang unlocked the door, finding the lights out and the apartment empty, just as they had left it in the morning. With a frown, Yang reached over to the light switch, illuminating the apartment.
"Isn't Blake back yet?" Ruby asked, moving into the apartment and looking around for their roommate.
"I guess not." Yang answered, turning to close the door behind her. "She finished worked early though, so she should be here any minute though."
.
"I think we're finally done." Neptune breathed a sigh of relief, wiping his sweating forehead with the back of his hand.
"Thank god for that". Sun leaned back against the wall opposite Neptune, sliding down slowly until he was sitting against the floor, the weight taken off of his legs.
"I don't see why Scarlet and Sage couldn't have helped us out with this move. It would've made things a lot easier."
"I'm sure they could've, they just didn't want to make the trip all the way from Mistral." Neptune said, shrugging.
"Oh sure, they say that now, but I bet they'll be asking for help when it's their turn."
"I could use a shower, and then we should check out the neighbourhood." Neptune said, walking back into their new apartment. "We celebrate our new place, see what the fish are like in this part of the sea."
"Is that all you think about, dude? Girls? Honestly, you're-" Sun trailed off, the words dying on his lips as he caught a flash of black from the corner of his eye.
Turning, he saw a young woman walking down the hall, her bright, yellow eyes stared downwards, trailing over a page of the book she held loosely in her hands. Oddly, she walked at a brisk pace, without looking up, too engrossed in her book. However, she navigated the hallway flawlessly, her long dark swaying behind her and hips sashaying. It was as if she was relying entirely on muscle memory rather than her senses.
"Sun?" Neptune called from the doorway, noticing his friend hadn't followed him in.
Brought back to reality at the sound of his name, Sun looked up. Neptune extended his hand out to Sun, who was still sitting, leaning against the wall.
"Don't tell after all that work you're just gonna stay out in the hall?" Neptune smirked. It wasn't like his friend to be all spacey.
Smirking back, Sun clasping Neptune's outstretched hand and moving back to his feet.
"You know, I have a feeling I'm really going to like this place." Sun said, stepping through the door with a grin.
Neptune just watched him, his eyebrows furrowing, puzzled.
.
"Hey guys," Jaune called as he kicked the door to his apartment closed, his arms full of grocery bags. "I'm back."
"Jaune!" Nora cheered, leaping from her spot on the couch and racing over to him. She pranced onto the tips of her toes, grasping her taller friend's shoulders as words spilt from her mouth in a flurry.
"Did you get it? Did you get it?"
"Wow, easy there Nora. Hold on." Jaune said, moving quickly to place the bags onto the counter. Given Nora's exuberance and his clumsiness, it was best to set them down before they ended spilling everywhere. Reaching into one of the bags he produced a tall bottle of syrup.
"Yes! You're the best Jaune!" Nora exclaimed, wrapping her arms around him.
"Hey, I do what I can-"
He trailed off as Nora pulled the top off the syrup and began drinking from it deeply.
"How was work?" Ren asked, moving into the kitchen and doing his best to pry the, now half empty, bottle from his friend's hands.
"So-so." Jaune answered with a shrug, slipping out of his jacket and dropping his keys onto the counter. "Ruby's gonna be leaving in a couple of weeks to start her training in Signal."
"Yeah, you told us that yesterday."
"She brings it up a lot, she's pretty excited. I was thinking we should have everyone over on the weekend. Y'know, to celebrate Ruby starting her training and all."
"Like a party?" Nora asked, perking up at the idea. Beside her, Ren cringed.
Jaune had known it wouldn't be difficult to sell Nora on the idea. Convincing Ren, however, was where the challenge lay. It went without saying that he was a particularly introverted guy and while he enjoyed the company of their friends, he wasn't fond of the effort, noise and mess that were typical of parties.
"More of a get-together, really." Jaune answered, choosing his words carefully. "After all, it'd just be the six of us. Ruby and Blake aren't exactly party animals. We'll just be hanging out."
Ren continued to eye him sceptically, without a word. Jaune laughed nervously. He could tell Ren still wasn't convinced.
"I'll clean up?" He offered. Ren raised an eyebrow at him, the slightest hint of a smirk pulling at his lips at Jaune's poor attempt to sweeten the deal.
"Come on, Ren. We're doing this for our friend, Ruby." Jaune said, realising he was going to need to bring out the big guns. "We're really going to miss her. Right, Nora?"
Jaune exchanged a knowing look with Nora, who immediately caught on with a sly smile. Ren's impassive expression faltered, his eyes widening in worry as he realised where this was going.
"Yeah Ren. Can't we have a party for Ruby?" Nora said, looking up at him with wide, hopeful eyes. "Please?"
Jaune sniggered, watching beads of sweat break out on Ren's head as he tried to remain resolute. Ultimately though, Jaune knew it was a hopeless fight. Ren could never refuse his best friend. With a long, defeated sigh, he finally relented.
"…Fine."
"Alright!" Jaune and Nora cheered, pumping their fists in the air.
"That settles it then." Jaune said, taking out his scroll and writing a group message. "I'll let everyone know it's official."
"Don't worry, Ren, it'll be fine. When have we ever led you astray before?"
"Well-"
"Actually, you know what. Don't answer that."
"Alright, it's all taken care of." Jaune said, clicking the send button on his scroll. "I'll talk with you guys more about this when they get back to us. If you need me, I'm just going to be in my room for a bit."
"Where are you going? To talk with your girlfriend?" Nora asked, drawing out the last word teasingly. Jaune flushed.
"She's not my-" Jaune protested, his voice a much higher octave than normal. Clasping his hand over his mouth, embarrassed, Nora snorted and Ren broke into a grin.
"You know what, never mind." Jaune grumbled, walking into his bedroom and closing the door behind him.
"Oh, come on Jaune. Don't be like that. We were just kidding."
Slumping into his desk chair with a sigh, Jaune blissfully stretched out his aching legs and lower back.
Glancing up at his monitor, Jaune grabbed his mouse and guided his cursor over the Skype icon on his desktop. With a click, his friends list was pulled up on screen. His stomach fluttered, a small smile pulling across his lips as he noticed that Pyrrha was online.
Jaune had grown up awkward and unsure of himself, finding it difficult to make friends. He'd tried to feign confidence, having been told by his father that it was a trait people; particularly girls; admired. Most, however, could read through Jaune's bravado, seeing him for the bumbling, anxious teenager he really was. To this day, he only really had a small group of friends outside of his own family; Ruby, Ren, Nora, Yang and Blake.
He had gravitated to forums most of his life, as making friends online just came more comfortably to someone like him, who lacked confidence. Unfortunately, there was a stigma that surrounded those relationships forged online, a belief that because two people hadn't ever interacted in person, their friendship couldn't possibly be as a real or as strong. It was something Jaune had always thought was ridiculous. As close as he was to Ruby, Ren and Nora, Pyrrha was probably his best friend. No matter how dull his day may have been, no matter how much he may have felt like a loser stuck in a dead-end job, or that his life was going nowhere, speaking with Pyrrha always made him feel so much happier and comfortable with himself.
For Jaune social media and online communication was a blessing. It had become a gateway enabling him to become close to someone emotionally and mentally, while remaining physically so far apart. Pyrrha, someone who, at different point in space or time, he may have never even had the opportunity to meet. He could interact with like-minded people from all the Kingdoms of Remnant, and forge relationship he may not be able to with those in his immediate surroundings.
Hovering over Pyrrha's icon, he clicked the call button, an image of her face appearing on screen as she answered the call.
"Hey," he said warmly, his face lighting up.
"Hello again," she answered brightly, waving to the camera.
"This may be the last time we see each other like this." He said, glancing directly into the camera, and catching her eyes. They were a vibrant green, so vital and full of life. Just like her. If they appeared this captivating through his low quality monitor, he could only imagine what they would look like in the flesh. "I can't believe that you're going to be in Vale soon."
"Me either." She smiled shyly. "I'm really looking forward to finally seeing you."
"I am too."
"So… How was your day?"
"It was alright." Jaune shrugged. "I mean, work kind of sucked, but my friend Ruby was there to help out, so it wasn't so bad in the end."
"I'm glad to hear it. It's nice that you have friends to work with." Pyrrha nodded. Though Jaune couldn't help but feel her voice had been tinged by the slightest hint of sadness. He frowned, wondering if there was something troubling her.
"How about you, how was your day?"
"Well," Pyrrha began, looking to her lap. "It was fine, I suppose."
"You suppose? Is there anything you want to talk about?" Jaune asked, already having an idea of what her answer would be.
Pyrrha's work was always a subject she tip-toed around when talking with him, answering questions about it carefully. The most she'd ever told him was that she worked in media. The details weren't that important to Jaune, but a part of him was concerned that she was hiding something from him. It must have been a sensitive subject, something she wasn't comfortable talking about.
Jaune hoped that, if there was something troubling her, she'd one day be able to talk to him about it. Maybe meeting in person would change that, allow them to reach a new intimate stage in their friendship. He only wanted to help to her.
"That's nice of you, Jaune," Pyrrha answered eventually. "But it's alright. I'd rather just try and put it behind me."
"Okay, Pyrrha. If you say so." Jaune said. There was a part of disappointed that she still didn't trust him quite enough to open up about what was bothering her, but he would respect her wish.
"Just remember though. If you ever do have something that's bothering you, or you just need to vent. I'm here for you. You've helped me through a lot before, and it's only fair that I return the favour."
"Thank you, Jaune" Pyrrha said, with a smile. "I'll keep that in mind."
"Anyway," Jaune said. "I was thinking of playing some World of Remnant tonight. You wanna get in on that?"
"Why, that sounds grand."
"Great," Jaune said, picking up the controller to his Grimmbox. "Just give me a moment to get set up."
A/N: Volume 3 hype, woo! Also, this marks my fortieth story on this site... Not including ones I've deleted, that is. Yay for milestones.
Anyway, this is an idea I had a couple of weeks ago and was able to crank a lot of different ideas for pretty quickly. It's a kind of modern, real-world AU, at least in the sense that Remnant will be more like Earth and lacking a lot of the supernatural elements it has in canon. Pairing wise, it's obviously going to focus mainly on Arkos, but I am considering working in some others depending on how things unfold. You may have also noticed that unlike my past RWBY stories that have been pretty JNPR (read Jaune and Pyrrha) heavy, I am trying to work a lot more characters into this one. I'm going to try and write significant roles for RWBY, Sun, Neptune and maybe the rest of SSSN depending on if and how soon they appear in the upcoming volume (I'm not really fond of writing characters before at least getting an idea what they are like canonically).
Anyway, I'd love to hear what you guys think of this so far. Where would like you to this story go, and what developments do you thing would be interesting to explore? What do you feel I could do better with? Let me know! Your feedback is always appreciated. Cheers.
