#If DL2 had gotten a remake mid-Apologies showing us that DMS was just...I dunno a...starfish or something...

Hi, i know you said you're unable to do paid requests, but i was wondering if i could pay for the existing 3 chapters of MariPav. I saw you deleted them, and i really liked them.

Please, you really, really don't have to pay me... Not for an unfinished comic... I'm also very sorry that my actions pushed you to feeling like you might have to pay to have them restored...

To be devastatingly truthful, while it pains me to chose this, given how much I myself was counting on finishing this comic...

...Given the massive length (150 pages of script!!) of the story, plus the fact that I will have less time for complex, focused art over the next year, minimum, (...though, again, I want to clarify that my situation in general is BETTER than it was before) plus my wavering feelings on Magolor's post-remake backstory and characterization (...that *frustratingly* invalidated MOST of what I wrote about him in this story) it's time to admit that I will not be able to finish drawing Marionettes' Pavane. I know. I know...

...However, given that the written text of MariPav IS complete (and has been for a while) I am currently compiling the pre-existing chapters + extras with the remaining, unpublished script (ideally, I want to make a few extras for that too, but we'll see) into one large, unified document.

Unlike before, I will be keeping this one up, seeing how this will be the complete "Marionettes' Pavane." I know it's a huge downgrade from a full-blown comic...However, I have had a few friends read over just the script on its lonesome before, and, based on their positive comments, I think it may just stand as a good read all on it's own.

(You all seem to like my writing enough ^^ )

Even if it's not illustrated in the big, dramatic, showy, passionate, paneled stylings of my favorite manga that influenced me so much as child, it is still my big heartfelt treatise on the Marxolor ship.

(And if you love angst + people suffering/dying for each other, oh boy... >w<)
