Another rough patch has showed up. Roses and thorns is going to need to be put on some type of hiatus. Im losing motivation on it, I dont know what to do with the story, and the voice actor of Rio is...gone. This is very very stressful for me. I dont want to throw away the community I have built, id never do that. I would hate myself forever if I scrapped this. Ill try my absolute best to push through with roses and thorns, but I will need help, and it will take time. Ive put too much care into this, and I dont want to have wasted everyone's time. Side character results are being pushed back, im so so sorry. Ill eventually need to recast Rio, but I need time to process. Thank you everyone.
