AN: As always, thank you all a zillion times! And unfortunately, I have run out of my stock of pre-written mad libs, so I'll actually have to write them as I update now, which should be interesting. Updates might be a bit slower from now on, especially when I have to go back to (ugh) school in a week, but I will try to keep up! I'll shoot for once a week; we'll see how that goes . . .
