Sorry I've been absent lately, folks. Been seeing a lot of doctors, managed to come down with something nasty (probably in the hospital, when I was getting tests done), and then, when I finally started to feel better two days ago, we get an unexpected snowstorm. Whole foot of snow, and a whole hell of a lot of fallen trees and downed power lines. Power was out for 36 hours, and we only just got it back on a few hours ago.<br/><br/>I'm reading through the ooc and will read through the ic afterwards, then get a post up later tonight.<br/><br/>edit: Addendum:<br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=111594.msg5411150#msg5411150">Quote from: Joslyn on 31-10-2011, 14:00:14</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">hehe.
