This Venerable Demon Is Grossly Unqualified

Sorry, no chapter this week.

See above. My day job has been pretty wild these last three weeks, and I'm kinda running on fumes atm. The long hours have been putting me in a place where I've basically been writing the chapter over the course of the weekend, and I need to take a breather. I'm about halfway through chapter 30 atm, but after thinking about it, I'm gonna take the time to do it properly instead of pushing forward and trying to get it out tonight. I might post it earlier when it finishes, but I think it's more likely I'll just take this whole week as a bye and keep whatever I write as a backlog so I don't have to do this again next time it happens.

I hate doing this, I don't like failing to deliver something when I've commited to a schedule, but I don't want to drop something suboptimal and then feel like I need to fix it later either. I really appreciate all of ya'll support and I'm amazed and grateful that anyone considers this story worth donating for, so hopefully next weekend's chapter will be worth the wait.

PS. I hate production support. There's nothing worse than needing to do all your debugging through a virtual machine.
