Blogger be acting up. Silly stuff. Finally, it's taken way too long to actually get to the asks that have been piling up. Between health and other responsibilities, I'm only just now getting above water. That said, this glorious return also comes with a some....disappointing news. This is the last big hurrah for the Ask Blog, at least for a while. I'll be putting the email on ice and working through what I have when I can.
The ask blog is, and was always meant to be the farthest ring out of stuff I work on. A way to promote my fics which...even the fics were taking a backseat to keeping up with the asks. In order to shift what free time I have outside of the fics and art and comms over to my actual art school tutorials, it means I gotta cut something. Sadly I can't do it all...I can barely juggle what I have even with it cut. But the blog doesn't do the job of drawing or promoting the fic series as well as it used to either.
Now...does that mean the blog is forever dead? No, not at all. It will remain up. And even when I run out of the stored up asks I'll drop something cute from time to time...May even expand onward to stuff outside of Zoot. Idk...we shall see...I don't want to just...let the blog wither and die. But eight-ish years is a pretty long lifespan for an ask blog. Perhaps I'll be better at keeping up after art school and do a full jumpstart at that point.
That said, expect some heavy content for the next week or so... I'd love to get it all done. But I've let it build up quite a lot...So it'll probably take two doses to get through it!
Thanks for the longterm love and support guys. It was a fun ride! Perhaps we'll meet again further down the road.

PS. Why would Dawn be upset Paige doesn't look enough like Vernon? Easy answer, Dawn still has misgivings about who she is as a 'Bellwether' and the Bellwether name...Hence having her daughter look more like her than Vernon makes her a little anxious. Something she'd be better at keeping to herself if she wasn't dealing with pregnancy hormones.
PSS. The 7+ month gestation rather than nine and still being considered 'overdue' was because it's a median average estimated first by finding the middle ground between wolf and sheep gestation, and then using that number and the average human gestation to find the middle of that, which turned into 6 1/2 months, which I pushed to 7 to make it well overdue but uncertain.
