Totally not a worry on my part, yes :)  Glad you got the rest!<br/><br/>On a slightly more game-related note, now that the characters have all made their presences and first reactions known... once the lot are done their socializing, I'll move forward in the IC with a bit of semi-godmodded exposition to get the plot underway.  Nothing horrific will happen when I do these expositions, but I do intend to do them from time to time, to help cover time skips and otherwise mundane details.<br/><br/>I will assume, for example, that everyone eats, and probably describe it happening.  I'm not going to ascribe table manners and conversation.  I will assume that everyone will get a good night's rest, and that spellcasters will memorize.  I'm not going to specifically add in bed partners for anyone.<br/><br/>This will allow me to move from one scene to another without needing to railroad the interactions in that direction.  It just skips the unpleasantries in my mind.  If anyone ever has some specifics they would like me to include in an exposition piece, definitely let me know.  I think setting some basics down for longer stretches of PC mundane activity is a good thing.  (i.e., if I say there's going to be four days of uninterrupted road travel, knowing that Ashlyn will always want to stand a watch before sleeping, but that Aiden will always sleep right away so she can memorize her spells in the pre-dawn hours allows me to tailor that into the descriptive prose parts.)<br/><br/>If anyone has issues/questions/problems/suggestions on this stuff, definitely pipe up and let me know.  Otherwise, just let me know when you've got nothing else substantive you want your character to accomplish in the social scene, and I'll pop the next bit on there.
