Shuffling people around and you don’t expect it to have much of an impact. Or at least, that’s what Charlotte and I somehow keep fooling ourselves with. If we move person x to family y then what’s the worst that can happen? We get a fully functioning family and character that’s more fleshed out and …
Catching Up
As the coffee is slowly making it’s way through our systems, waking us up and preparing us for the day to come, we’re settling in to get back to sorting things out.
