About 7700 words on this one, and the bulk of them may not make anyone happy: it was time to check in with Coordinator, and I understand if no one wants to stay in his office any longer than they have to. But in this case, it was... necessary.

So that's the (unofficial, as I never made a blog post) January update slate completed. We'll discuss February in a few days, after I recover from having to deal with that charming personality and figure out how things are going to work for the shortest of months.

Put it this way: it's going to take more than one chapter to clear the party.
Possibly a lot more.
