So I guess it's my turn to talk about it.
          	
          	I mean it's not really an obligation but I've just been feeling pathetic ever since Fauna's announcement. It's just been one shoot down after another and it's really been tanking my dedication to write as of late. Fauna is a pillar to the community, more personally to me as much as Ame was. She's unique and irreplaceable and such a huge factor and yet, now with Chloe she's taking her step down but unlike her she's not keeping connections.
          	
          	And I know, I get it, she's going back to her "roots" and everyone knows where to look but to me that doesn't change the fact that "Ceres Fauna" is leaving. She was still a significant character that made this community so enjoyable to be around. Now it's only what's left of Promise and Ollie that keep me intact and now I'm so paranoid over everything that I worry they'll be gone soon.
          	
          	I want to honor Fauna, I already had a book ready for hers to start once I finished working on the two that are already out but now I don't know.

@ThePotat420 Hey, at the end of the day it's fine to feel sad or generally just negative about something as big as this, the recent graduation wave we're getting hit by is pretty insane as a whole, if you look at prior years where we lost 0-2 members at most generally speaking, one thing we should be happy about is... Cover is still cover, I think Yagoo mentioned it, but it was either sell the company entirely or compromise like this, so this is... better than nothing !
          	  But that doesn't mean we should be super happy about it or cheer for what it is, things will change, for better or worse, mostly the latter so far, but after the rain there's sunshine isn't it ?
          	  I'm sure you'll do her a big honor with your work, even if she doesn't see it or ever will, you're doing something great, good luck bro, you got this !

It felt only slightly reassuring that those who still stay mentioned they are still ok, but now I'm worried for them that if more people keep leaving because of management that means it's more work for them to maintain Cover's revenue. And for Fauna to choose to just straight up graduate -- not even become an affiliate -- despite how much she wanted to stay because streaming and being an idol is still her dream, this is definitely a time of uncertainty and anxiousness for everyone.

@ThePotat420 I feel you. I watched a video as well recently that Regis Altare also said that Cover itself is really in a bad place right now and that he mentioned he could do better than them which kinda hints a graduation? Hopefully, that isn't the case. He sounded pretty mad too but composed himself pretty well. What makes me glad is that idols can be transparent about the issue to an extent but still be mature about it. But it's still saddening some of the pillars are leaving because of poor management. I've just been watching other vtubers to kind of just try to get over it and think it is what it is. I stumbled upon Cypress Ch. really funny person and made the news bearable by reacting to memes, so just grateful we can find other ways to cheer ourselves up.

How have you been?

@SomeoneWhoExists903 Surviving, dealing with a lot of work from Uni. Even when I get home I'm not free but I've been making it work. Progress on my books have been slow but it's definitely being made.

Dude, did something happen to ArlWrites? I can’t seem to see his account or his stories for some reason

TheLivingVendetta

@ThePotat420 I consulted the Wattpad help section for explanations and it said either a mute or a block but a mute would mean I can still see his stories. Since I cannot see it, that means he blocked me

@ThePotat420 If I’m really not blocked, how am I unable to view his page and his stories and all that? When I try to view it it says user doesn’t exist or is visible to select people

Btw, I'm sorry for the slow updates on the books. Mid terms went through smoothly but literally right after I got hit with a weird viral infection that the doctors didn't even have a name for it. First few times they called it COVID but then said it was the flu.
          
          Was a wild ride but I'm doing fine now, recovered for most of it in this week so I'll be back full swing. Or maybe not, I got a new phone which I'm still getting used to :D

What is Justice's relationship with Cyrus? 
          How did they meet him?

ThePotat420

@joshferna01 You can say he met all the talents because Cyrus works at cover now. As the Fuwamoco book hinted, he's part of a major security team belonging to cover so with that sort of track record he automatically gets to meet all of them.

Just wondering does a version of Andre exist in the Rose-7 universe?

ThePotat420

@IaComplete_cyclepath He does not, Rose-7 is a peculiar case because it's considered the "Prime timeline" which you can interpret as "Main story." So all other books I've made can be considered different universes that *can* be connected to one another if said so.
