So... I had planned on pushing through to 10-5 no matter what and... It's wrong. It's wrong to push towards a date for this project made from LOVE to do something that it is the antithesis of it.

Life lesson, folks. Sometimes, "you got to let go if you wanna be free."

So... I am not doing that. Also this week was supposed to be a big week, but after dealing with family... I realized I desperately needed a mental break from simply dealing with them.

Plus not going to lie... I am talking to someone and I feel happier than I have for the first time since a sad divorce 2 years ago. I am enjoying waking up to a cute GIF or chat message from her on Discord. It feels nice to have someone care Iike that again.....

So... I have one extension card to play. I promised I would only ever play ONE and I have been excellent at keeping my promises. I am denied a 2nd, so I am placing it down. I didn't want to... but at LEAST I have always extended once, then completed. Plus, I would say everything is 50% done if I asked to provide a number... But I want extra time to organize and create the true EPIC ending I have always wanted. Not a half asked one I am rushing through... So here we go...

New soft date is OCTOBER 17th, New HARD DATE (must be done) is HALLOWEEN. 

Why these dates? Simply to provide me padding to complete an ending I want to be experienced. That I feel proud of and that makes me feel like I have given 110% effort and trust me... I don't want to extend, this project is long in the tooth, BUT if I rushed, I wouldn't do anything big and bold. I would restrain myself a bit and you guys, especially the originals... Deserve an ending with tons of choices and not just jokes, but action akin to Chapter 3.

Also, even though there is a poll up. I wont be editing Serena any further. Her design is iconic and changing her would not sit right so... As much as her hair can be awkward to deal with, I won't change it.

Anyway, take care. In a few days... When the dust has settled from the recommendations and this news post, I'll add a poll for September's patron/SStar render (Though on SStar, I will poll you guys IMMEDIATELY because you havent suffered from recommendation spam.) That said...

Til next time. Hope all is well and you are all doing good.
