...you know, normally I'd have this big announcement explaining why I was gone for so long, what the heck I've been doing by introducing with a joke and whatnot, and spending 10x the amount of words needed to explain 1 little detail... but today, just to get into the jiggy of it (whatever that means), I think I'll be sticking to direct statement and facts.
What's up guys! I know you were expecting an update a tiiiiiny bit ago (rechecks last A/N)... as in nearly 5 freaking months (whoops), but I actually do have a valid explanation revolving that. See, admittedly, as I told one of my fans recently, I wouldn't have had the update done by the following week what with work going on, but I did have the energy for it to at least get some work done on it the following week, so you know, that would've meant a much sooner update. I probably would've had something the following week.
THEN WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT, something just HAD to come up T_T. Specifically, work. See, I work a nice cosy 4-5 hour shift between noon and afternoon, which is nice, relaxing, awesome, etc. and etc. But apparently a change was made in one of the departments of our building that required a complete overhaul of our work hours. No one was fired (thankfully), but the hours were a little less than wanted...
I was working between 7 in the freaking morning to 4 in the afternoon T_T and that's not even counting the time I had to freaking wake up!
This started in the middle of June/July, and has carried on over to this day. And as you might imagine, when you're working nearly 8 hours a day EVERYDAY from 5 in the morning to wake up to freaking 4 when you're done or get home, you're completely exhausted to the point of your mind shutting down all other thoughts- and naturally, one of those thoughts were of the fanfic. Because of this, I had little to nothing going on in terms of thought process or work within my bones, saving all my excess energy for getting freaking home and then collapsing on my bed by nearly 6 o'clock X/.
Now on a fortunate news, this overhaul IS only temporary \^_^/! In fact, this whole work schedule thing will only last till the last week of November or so, and as such, we are slowly making our way back to fanfic-ing (the fact I have the energy to write even this much can attest to that)! Now I will grant it will take awhile to get back into the flow of things and whatnot, but to that I have a solution:
A RUBY Q'n'A Panel episode ^^! What better way to get back into the flow of things than to get some time with one of our lovely characters after the near year it's been since our last official update! And with all said and done, I believe it only appropriate for Nora and Pyrrha to host today's Q 'n A this time around!
So, as such, until Monday, leave your thoughts and questions for the two girls along the lines of anything you're interested to know! It can be how things have been with the team, what's up with current events, their thoughts on their teammates and friends, and everything else!
So for those diehard fans that have been with me till now, thank you so much for being so patient, and I apologize for the incredibly long wait. I promise things will slowly come back, with the rwby goodness you all love!
