Whoa, what's happening here? How's this even possible? Collective loss of sanity? Me don't compute.

Thank you, everyone, for your support. The ride wouldn't be half as funny without y'all.
But now for some real talk, eh?
No idea if he did that on purpose, but WW up there must be after one of my notorious spankings as he left out the important part of the author's notes: I deserve none of that award. I may have typed a half-assed, semi-coherent string of consciousness in a handful of pseudo-nice-sounding (obnoxiously blokey) lines but there was one person very dear to me who sacrificed their time and mental health to polish my trite musings and turn them into the shining story they are now. Without this help, my story would have landed on my ever-growing 'plot graveyard' pile. My friend, if anyone deserves the award it's you, not silly ol' Henks.
I bow to thee, o, great slinger of words beyond my humble capabilities.
