Heya, guys. Yeah, I haven't given up- yet. This thing was actually supposed to be up days ago, but I'm a slacker and- when I tried to last night- my laptop was being super slow so I didn't get to then- like I was planning- either. No excuse, just stating the facts.

THANKS A BILLION TO EVERYONE THAT'S COMMENTED, FAVORITED, FOLLOWED, READ, AND WHATEVER ELSE THERE MAY BE! IT REALLY IS APPRECIATED, AND YES, I'LL PROBABLY REPEAT THAT EVERY NEW UPDATE.

To gc: Thanks so much! Sorry for the super late response. And I'll try my best ;)
