Sorry for the slow response, guys. I was hoping to have one up by now, but I seem to have sprained my left wrist last night. It doesn't seem too bad but I might be pretty sparse over the next week or so, and I probably won't have an IC post up tonight. My apologies for the hold-up.<br/><br/>I'm pretty cool with extending the IC period prior to the test, if you are interested in doing so. It gives us a chance to introduce our characters, get into their heads and establish their relationships. I've been using the time to also demonstrate Shiori's central dilemma, the one this story is hopefully going to make progress on. Yoshi can do something similar too, I imagine. But, if you ever get tired of it or wish to move on, by all means.<br/><br/>Again, sorry for the short answer, but typing isn't very comfortable at the moment. Perhaps I'll have more for you later.
