I don't keep up with stories in the way most other seem to do. I wander off to it occasionally to read a bit, but I know I am too impatient to wait for the next chapter of the story if it hasn't been completed.

To give an understanding of this: It's the uncertainty that makes me too impatient. I can wait for two weeks, a month, even half a year to get the next chapter, if I know it's going to happen within that timeframe. If I have been assured that there are a set release date for the next chapter. (This is for anything and everything that has a sequel)

So, for me, the stories not updating, isn't the end of the world. What IS "the end of the world" for me though, is that though Rabbit1 hasn't interacted with me on discussions here on the forum, which is what I usually do here, he has always made his presence known, and we all should be grateful for all the time and effort the great furball is dedicating to this site on an (practically) every-day basis.

I felt sadness in my heart when I discovered he had been gone for so long, because I didn't know the cause of his absence. Well, I still don't but....
Sadness because he is such a mighty presence over this site, and it would be a shame if this great persona would be gone.

I really can't describe my emotions on the matter correctly. I can only say that when I learned of his absence, I hoped it to be pleasant matters of R/L, and not accidents or other unhappy things.

cariad has to some extent calmed that feeling with a previous post, but I am waiting anxiously to see the Rabbit back.

You know, it somehow feels "empty in the house" without him....
