		   Kavax can still only be competent at manipulating when monsters are involved.   But the monsters at least usually take him seriously.

I'm going to try to word soon.

		   No, we've been struggling with stuff I'm afraid.  The move was rougher than we expected, and then we had to deal with the old place, and work has been a pain about letting me have time off - in fact, I've worked more shifts the last month than usual.  Dian had more surgery on her mouth, too.  We're hoping to start getting things on track soon.  Hopefully.

		   Checking in. I see you've been keeping this game alive (as in, not letting it turn inactive due to lack of posts) so I assume you're planning on resuming at some point.

		   I'm hoping so.  Some stuff has happened which has made D not so writey of late.  We may call this story short and switch back to me as a GM, but I've been procrastinating as work decided that my department don't really have enough to do and to pop a bunch of extra jobs on me.

		   Yep.  I was the last one to post, so other people get to start by reacting to Kavax being casually ominous.

		   I think that since D_Var_Stars is unable to pick this back up, that there's a chance Jon might just be wrapping this up quickly and starting another chapter.

		   Also possible.  Kavax was actually gradually getting his next experience reward as things went on there, but things could still probably be glossed over.

		   Crud, thank you for reminding me I'm meant to be doing things.  I had a great idea, then I got all sad... I'll work on wrapping stuff up when I get up later.  It might not be pretty, but pretty can wait. While we consider that, it seems we're down to three people - do we wanna just run as is, or recruit some new blood?

Jennifer, especially, feels horribly unsettled by the figure. Androleteira especially recoils. It's Jessica.

 Just a thought: we could also invite Ahmad from that other game I just killed. :) If neither Carlos or Kavax rejoin, I think I'd prefer another player or two, but I'm fine if we just go with what he have, also.

		   I suppose there is the fact that Kavax was going to come out of this with an allied team grown at least semi-organically through the process... but now we'll just have to figure out who all got dumped out with him.
