Hey, all - to put it simply, I'm in need of a break. This is one of those 'It's not You, it's Me' situations. However, I'm being entirely genuine when I say it!

Because I'm not sure how long of a break I'm going to need, I've dropped. I don't want to character squat or keep people waiting on me for things. I apologize to anyone who I had plans with.

I'll still be around on AIM and Plurk so I'm still reachable. (Saying that, though, if anyone had me added to either one for Smash specifically, no hard feelings if you want to drop my contact. No harm, no foul!)

Bret and Kitsu are fantastic Mods. They do a massive amount of work and there's plenty in store for you guys to look forward to.

Thanks to everyone who spent time playing with my dudes. I hope you had fun! I know I did!

Hiiiii. Moonbei here with sad news. Lots of things have come up and, at the moment, I've been traveling a lot to spend time with the people I love and cherish. Soon, towards the end of March, I'll be moving to Japan for one year to teach English. Therefore... it brings me much sadness to have to drop Chiyo and Acacia for the time being.

HOWEVER. I WILL BE BACK.

The revamp of the game looks spectacular and I can't wait to get back in on the action. And you know how I could never truly leave this wonderful place. Once a Smasher, always a Smasher. :>

Once I get settled down in Japan and figure out my daily schedule, I'll return to Smash with my babies. I'm hoping to come back in April and I'll do my best to do so. In the meantime, Chiyo and Acacia can enter NPC mode and be diligent, loyal and loving Pokemon to their trainers. Or they can fall into an unknown dimensional space as a result of the total lunar annihilation and be lost in time. idk. That seems dramatic, but anything can happen, right? It'll let me pick up from where I left off, too. I mean--wut

Anyway, thank you everyone for always being so kind, patient, and overall just fantastically great people. I love you all and I will miss you lots. I'll try to keep my Plurk better updated so we don't fall out of touch. :3 Take care everyone. See you in Plurk for the time being! Always feel free to keep in touch and reach out to me. I'm always happy to talk. <3

I've been holding off on taking this jump, but I've come to realize I can't fend it off forever, so I might as well do it now. It's time for me and Hajime to leave Smash. My attention span has waned for tags, and I've lost motivation for Hajime's character. So, Hajime left back to Japan with his graduation. He left contact information for his friends and didn't skimp on the goodbyes; he'll be happy to do you all a favor, in or out of uniform.

This game has been a wonderful blast for the time I've been here. Everyone's been amazing, and I hope I can continue with the great friendships I've made.

Good luck with the next stage of the game, I expect it will be amazing! I hope to one day get the inspiration back and play with you again in the new setting, but until then, take care.

FOLLOWING ON KAT'S HEELS I am also out for real now that graduation is up and things are settled. I have been here for slightly less time than she has--May of 2008, which is still 7 years, which is insane. Thank you for all the hot times and cool memories, and best of luck to the new guys. TREAT YOUR NEW MODS WELL AND KEEP ON KEEPING ON.

Zelda went off to take care of things back in Hyrule. She said appropriate farewells and gave many platonic smooches to all.

Wheatley is off finding himself and informed Vianca accordingly. Best of luck to him.

Falcon is a jerk and did not say goodbye to or leave anything for anyone because that is how he is and I am sorry. All of his projects and tools are gone from the autoshop, leaving just school-owned equipment. The couch is also gone. Kat's post has all the details should you wish to go looking for him.

I have done a bit of a cleanup on plurk to downsize my rp life, but if you really want to stay in touch, you can always send a PP to [plurk.com profile] whitticus or PM my other Falcon journal (because of course it is Falcon journal), [personal profile] boostpower.

Thank you all for the many, many years.

It's been a long time coming. Been here since sumabura gakuen Smash Academy opened its doors in late April 2008 and modding nearly just as long. Been through a lot of good, bad, and strange times in this game. Over seven years! That's such a long time, way longer than I ever expected. I always imagined that if/when this day would come I'd have way more to say but, like Mako, I guess it boils down to a simple: thanks for all the years and good memories, Smash. Treat your new mods right, you're in good hands.

As for IC depatures... ) So long and keep on rocking, Smash Academy. Maybe our paths will cross again one day.

OK, I suppose I just have to put my hands up to it: I haven't been feeling Black Shadow ([personal profile] black_shadow) at all lately. I think either he or I are just a bad fit for Smash, so sadly I'll be dropping him. I'm really sorry everybody. Assume he got chased out by a galactic police force in the middle of the night or something along those lines.

See you all later, Smashites (Smasherinos? Smashoholics?)

I'm going to have to drop Kuzuryuu Fuyuhiko ([personal profile] honorandhumanity). The muse is just not happening for me, even though I had so much fun watching everyone else's interactions. Thanks so much for having me, though, and maybe I'll be back with a stronger muse after the reboot!

ML here.

A long time coming, I'm letting go of the following.
♦ Eirika / [personal profile] heartofarapier
♦ Kaniehtí:io (Ziio) / [personal profile] nottheproblem — (Sorry, Jim. :<)
♦ Olivia / [personal profile] stopstaring

Assume they took their stuff with them. Eirika probably went to go save Lyon in her home world. Ziio went back in time and died (since that's how history rolls). Olivia endured the war with Plegia and Grima.

Still here with the remainders.

For the past few weeks, I have been struggling to keep my activity up due to the huge drop in motivation, which is a bummer since this guy definitely deserved to have more things happening. Rather than sit around waiting for the motivation to come back, I'll be taking a break from RPing for a while and see if that'll help.

Thanks so much for letting me be around, hopefully I can return with better plotting ability to make stuff happen. If you'd like to keep in touch, my plurk is at [plurk.com profile] karasalis.

See you guys around!

Sorry guys, I think time's showing me I need to duck out of the game for a little while. I hope to come back, but I haven't found myself pulling up the good ol' tags in quite a while. I feel awful for leaving a bunch of threads unfinished... But I figured this was going to inevitably happen in the near future.

This affects Ike [[personal profile] welikeike] and Henry [[personal profile] cruelcurse], and I'm out of the game. Ike and Henry both probably left earlier than I'm dropping since my activity ground to a halt in early January, so I'd say roughly mid-January was when they left. They both disappeared without a word and without intention. I hope I can come back soon and find it in myself to have fun again! Thanks for having me, and tell me if there's anything that you'd like from me- clarification, a finished thread, or anything of the sort.

Maaaan, I don't wanna do this, but I need to.

This is really, really….REALLY hard to do, but I’m going to have to drop out of the game for a little while. At the moment, I feel like RPing for me has become a chore and I’m more stressed out by it…my motivation to do anything has been pretty much nonexistent. Heck, I haven’t really done anything in a long time, I'm burnt out! On top of that, I've also been juggling two pretty intense jobs, so that's making me even more wiped out. So, what I’m going to do is take a few months off. I’m hoping that by doing this, I’ll be able to come up with a lot more different ideas and come back here as enthusiastic as ever!

As far as what my characters will be doing, well!

Sable is going back to Smashville after she received an emergency phone call from her sister, Mabel. According to her, a gigantic tree fell onto their tailor shop, and she needs help with paying for repairs, as well as getting the shop back on its feet. The Home Economics room will still be open to anyone that wishes to sew a little something, and she also left quite a bit of fabric for everyone to use as they please. She's explained the situation and said her goodbyes to everybody, and has also left a nice super-soft scarf for all of the students and staff. Hey, it's still cold outside! Think of it as a late Christmas present!

Watt got into a special traveling abroad art program thanks to her mom, so she is taking some time off from school to travel to all sorts of different places around the world in order to create an awesome art portfolio! Much like Sable, Watt also said her goodbyes to everybody, with promise that she's going to write to everyone a lot of letters about her travels and fun adventures, and that she'll be back once the program's all over.

Smash Academy, I swear I’ll be back! I'm not going to go away forever, you can count on that! Hotel California and all that! Just give me a few months and I'm sure I'll be ready to RP again. Until then, however, thanks so much for the six awesome years. All of you seriously changed my life in a very positive way and I love you all so much.

Hello! Iyo here with an unfortunate news that I have dropped Leon Kuwata, Pidge the Pidgeot, and Axl.

This was due to the reason that I have started a full-time, permanent job this week and has been eating up the majority of my time. Therefore, I was unable to get to RP things during the week. Until I become accustomed to my new schedule, I may only be able to get to tags during the weekends when I'm less drained.

I did enjoy the time I had with the three above muses, no matter how short (especially for Axl's case), and if I am still able to in the future, I'd like to bring them back. So hopefully it'll just be a temporary leave for those dudes...!

As for Ecolo, he'll still be kept for a while longer to see if I can keep going. Hopefully I am able to handle things better with less to worry about!

Pidge has left to return to Viridian Gym to make sure it hasn't been blown up or anything like that. Axl probably got lost in the city and/or fell in a ditch and/or found his way back temporary, and Leon is back to being dead lost as well or something I'm so bad with this.

Hey guys. This probably comes as no surprise since I did nothing this month but I'm dropping Ema. I just haven't been able to drum up enthusiasm for her or the game, and it's silly for me to keep pretending I actually play here anymore. Thanks for having me, I had a lot of fun while I was here!

Not all but some. Desmond and Evve are going again. I've got too much going on to keep up with four characters right now.

That said, I'd like to bring them back at some point, so Evve has gone traveling again and Desmond is probably dead existing. Somewhere. Who knows with him.

Sorry about that. I'll still be around with Vivian and Randall!

Short version: Being an adult sucks.

Long version: I'm now attempting to balance two jobs while at the same time looking to move out. As a result, I don't think I have much time for RPing outside of things like Museboxes. So, as painful as it is, I'm going to be letting go of Edel. She's pretty much returning to NPC status with Blue until I find the time to re-app and stay consistent. Still poking her little nose into everyone's business, just more in the background again. I'd rather bite the bullet and do this than Idle out. I'm just really sorry to Blue Teams especially.

Once things settle down for me I'll bring her back. And probably others, who are we all kidding. I can't stay away from this place for long.

Well, it's been a fun five years, but I've decided to let go of Rhys. It was a tough decision, considering, well, the long stretch of time I've been playing him and all the really cool CR he's developed. That was the hardest factor of all! But since my playing has been really scatterbrained, I think dropping might be for the best, at least for now.

I'm going to say that he just disappeared amid the chaos of AU month. I mean, what with all this multidimensional chaos and all. Will he ever come back?? Tune in next week. Or month. Some time. Maybe. There goes our resident healer! Now who's gonna play nurse?

WELP it's time to light this powder keg and send him on his way. You ladies can roam free this graduation/prom. I've been struggling with Rick for a while and I'm gonna let him go. I've had amany afond memories with him and excellent castmates and excellent CR and I will hold them in my heart forever. Thank you dudes.

TO INTERESTED PARTIES; since the shadow bugs have been receding, I'm going to have Rick get curious and follow some down into the bunkers for some good DEEP EXPLORING. He will not return. If anyone should notice him not returning and decide to follow in his management rail trail, they will find him amongst all the other trophies.

Hello all! I'll be dropping Sasha until the end of June. It feels weird dropping my currently oldest character in the game, but I want to give her a new look and fix her voice since I've been having trouble tagging as her. So she's not gone forever, just for two months.

She'll be off to intensively train with her dojo and left notes for everyone that she is friends and family with. Sonny is now the only remaining Red Pokemon this is Green Country now.

All friends and family are getting some glass vases and sculptures she made (yes even you Green folks).

Hey guys, it's Kiz. I'm sorry to add to the drop train, but Cammy, Dachora, General Guy, and Kyogre are being let go for a bit; my ability to play Cammy was drifting away, and the OCs were giving me trouble with such little upkeep, so I'm dropping 'till I have a little more motivation or time. I'm thinking reducing the character load'll pump up the motivation a bit more anyways! I hope to bring one or some back soon, when I feel a little more comfortable.

No real intense goodbyes to any of their respective relationships, just "see you in a whiles". Kyogre obviously just up and left, hahaha.

Green and Togami are sticking around as my only two for now.

I SHOULD ADD that if you'd like to finish a thread, or talk over how a thread would be finished, I am 100% okay with that. I regret that it was so abrupt, so please let me know if you wanna hash something out!!
