Why do we sleep where we want to hide?
At the end of the day, this is a hobby for all of us. There's nothing wrong with needing a break, and making no promises to come back to it. If you aren't enjoying it, you aren't enjoying it and it shouldn't become a job that you force yourself to do because you feel 'obligated'. If you are feeling ambivalent, not feeling your current set up - sometimes a reset is needed. As much as I hate dropping threads before they are finished, sometimes my muse just isn't there and the thought of having to reply to them can be killer to my desire to write. So I'll take a break, engage in another hobby, and then see if ending/dropping some threads and refocusing my 'timeline' helps. If it doesn't - perhaps its not meant to be. I think just being transparent in that with RP partners helps to ease some of your own anxiety and bad feelings that can crop up from getting ghosted. 

I can say for myself I enter a semi-retirement almost every time I'm on a site that closes for various reasons. Muse killer and let down, allows me to step away from the hobby for a while. I don't usually have intention of returning to RP, and probably the only reason I still RP is because drags me around to different sites. 

I can say that when I was working and in grad school, the thought of RP was as far from my mind as possible. As much as I love RPing, I recognize it takes a lot of effort and energy - and sometimes life is just too damn draining at the time to feel in love with it as much as I could be in less stressful times.

Amazon delivered a package today, marked it as 'safely delivered' but the picture determined that was a lie. They left it on the sidewalk... what...why

Thankfully I was home when it was delivered.

Why do we sleep where we want to hide?

The world passed around Yagi Veruna in shades of grey, a bittersweet strum of melancholy plucking at the chords of her heart. In a world that in the best of times was painted with strokes of dull and fading color, was now devoid of such light and vibrancy – Kyoto Jujutsu College the worst offender.

Why do we sleep where we want to hide?

There’s a lightness to her chest that she’s never felt before – her wings clipped long ago when she was shackled in a gilded cage with a regalia of shattered dreams thrust upon her head. She chases that feeling, kissing him more urgently, a fevered wave of emotion that she wants to share.

A silent communication of importance and desire – a connection almost a decade in waiting for this moment to soar or crumble.

And boy does it feel like she’s flying.
